The cold storage building for Union Storage and Transfer in Fargo. The building to the right originally was a creamery but is now home to a brewery.

Casements served many purposes. In peacetime they were ideal spaces for storage or a prison. In times of war their thick vaulted ceilings offered the best possible shelter available in the era. During the sieges of 1745 and 1758, when Louisbourg came under heavy bombardment, women and children sought refuge in the casements like this.
I use each one of these drawers for a different type of doll. Francie is on the bottom, Mod Barbie clothes in the middle and vintage on top. I have other drawers for for additional Mod clothes. I also use the cases for handmade and Mommy made clothes. I am always tweaking my system because I have alot of stuff!

"People who buy the Vantage will do so in the first place for its performance, and they will not be disappointed. The figures speak for themselves. But they should take extra heart because it is one of the easiest true high performance cars to drive well: and it has been given brakes to match. In comfort too, it has much to offer, and there is a great deal of what is best in the British tradition of designing and building sports cars in its making." - Autocar.
The performance figures Autocar referred to were a 0-60mph time of 5.4 seconds and an estimated top speed of 170mph, figures comparable with those achievable by a Ferrari Daytona or Lamborghini Miura.
With the introduction of the Vantage in 1977, Aston Martin's V8 was thrust back into the supercar league. Its superior performance aside, the Vantage was readily distinguishable from the standard product by virtue of its blocked-off bonnet scoop, blanked air intake, front chin spoiler and lip on the boot lid.
ZF five-speed manual transmission was standard equipment, though a handful of Vantages were built with the Torqueflite automatic gearbox. With either transmission performance was shattering, the Vantage's 0-100mph time of 12.7 seconds making it the world's fastest accelerating production car at that time. For those with a yen for even greater performance, there was the factory's optional 'X-Pack' engine (like this example's) which, depending on the state of tune, had up to 432bhp available.
As the Vantage's mechanical specification progressed so did the coachwork, with wheel arches flaring to accommodate wider rims, increasing the overall width by 2", and 16"-diameter wheels being introduced. Unlike the V8 saloon, which reverted to fuel injection in 1986, the V8 Vantage kept its 48IDF Weber carburettors to the end of production in December 1989, by which time 361 cars had been built.
Copy documents on file reveal that this particular Vantage was built to West German specification and delivered via Merz & Pabst. The car was finished in Salisbury Blue with grey leather interior; unusually, the specified dark blue piping was applied to the front seats and armrests only, the rest of the piping being grey. Other 'extras' consisted of dash top roll and steering wheel in dark blue, rear valance in body colour and a Blaupunkt Bremen radio cassette player. The Vantage subsequently moved to the UK where it was first registered on 1st August 1998 as 'E149 BKM'.
The current vendor purchased the Aston from The Old Racing Car Company of Richmond-on-Thames, UK on 28th June 2008, since when it has been kept in storage. Re-commissioning will be required before the car returns to the road.
Plate storage, what won't fit into the drawers gets put into bins on the shelves. I need to work on bulking up on some colors, but its a work in progress.
This takes a bit of time to sort, but I never have to look long when I am building.

Ex-LNER/BR Peppercorn A2 pacific 60532 ‘’Blue Peter’’ in storage at Walton Colliery in 1976, in (incorrect) post-war LNER livery as number 532... The blue-painted edge of the tender just visible on the right belongs to A4 60019 ‘’Bittern’’ - also in storage - in post-war 1946 LNER blue livery and numbered 19..
The A2 has had a part of its cladding roughly cut away over the firebox on the far side, suggesting a problem with the boiler..
It had entered service with BR in March 1948 as 60532 in LNER lined green with ‘British Railways’ on the tender.. It was withdrawn at the end of 1966, and purchased for preservation in 1968, and was restored, with sponsorship from the children's TV programme of the same name, in 1971, and appeared as seen here...
The loco was later repainted in the correct BR green livery, and suffered a near-catastrophic wheelslip in 1994, which severely damaged the motion, and blew the front cylinder covers off.. The loco was repaired, and back in service in 1996.
It was a static exhibit for many years after that, but finally returned to steam after 23 years in March 2024, and is mainline-certified. This year (2025) it appeared with other LNER pacifics at the ‘Greatest Gathering’ in Derby. This time, the loco has been incorrectly painted again, in BR late-’40s ‘mainline blue’ livery, which it never carried..
The colliery closed down in December 1979, and today all traces have vanished, and the site has been landscaped, as the 'Walton Colliery Nature Park'..
Restored from an under-exposed magenta-colour-shifted original..
