37 099 heads for Ipswich, with a Network Rail Track testing train, having started it's journey in Derby. Seen at Whittlesea.

-- Testing this relatively inexpensive Nikon gear by shooting into the sun w/o a hood. The Nikkor-H is the 50mm lens that is a 'hidden gem' -- big quality, low price -- but this one is the predecessor, having fewer elements.
My new job has me doing some macro work. This was my first foray in this line of photography. Seventy four photos stacked.
What do y'all think?
Strobist; full power 430ex into large silver umbrella pointed 45 degrees back (towards wall) camera right. In between me and the umbrella is a huge white sheet hanging from the roof. Also shoot through umbrella far cam left low power.
13/52
PO-109-1A 1,2/50
The lens is designed for 16mm motion-picture projectors with a 7,5Ñ…10,4 frame size.
Operating a test run prior to heading away from the area to be converted into an open topper, to replace the open top Bristol VRs currently run by the company, we see former London General, now Dart Pleasure Craft of Dartmouth motor Y812TGH heading through the center of Totnes looking very smart whilst still carrying the livery of previous owner, Plymouth Citybus.

First image testing out the Nikon D810. Huge files, so this is way downsized
A test shot with the Panasonic LA2700 1.33x anamorphic adaptor.
16:9 de-squeezed out to a 2.39:1 aspect ratio (but then cropped to some other ratio).
I rotated it a bit so the streaks aren't level anymore – I have to make sure not only is the adaptor on level, but the camera is too as any rotation is obvious.
Test the Sony A7m3 with Zeiss FE 55mm F1,8 ZA and Leica V-Lux 5. Both cameras ISO 125 f4 1/125s auto WB - neutral
Testing of the Class 800 IET units on the ECML is ramping up with regular outings for the new trains.
Full introduction is planned from December this year. For the moment, however, the new trains still have some novelty value.
9 car unit 800101 heads through Sunderland Bridge, south of Durham, with an Edinburgh to Doncaster Carr working.

37611 leads 1Q13 out of Pilning down loop with a 1100 Bristol Temple Meads to Bristol Temple Meads test train via various Bristol area branches and a reversal at Severn Tunnel Junction. 37607 brings up the rear.
This location has now been ruined by the hideous steelwork erected for the electrification scheme
Testing one, two and now, three.
Radio frequency testing has begun on the first Orion spacecraft that will fly around the Moon for the Artemis 1 mission, just two weeks after thermal and environmental tests were completed at NASA’s Plum Brook Station in Ohio, USA.
Electromagnetic compatibility or EMC testing is routine for spacecraft. All electronics emit some form of electromagnetic waves that can cause interference with other devices. Think of the buzz that speakers give out right before an incoming call on a mobile phone.
Spacecraft electronics can cause similar interference, but out in space such interference can have disastrous consequences, so all systems must be checked before launch.
EMC tests often take place in a special shielded room constructed of metal walls and doors and foamy spikes (aka Absorbers) that block out unwanted external electromagnetic radiation, like ESA’s Maxwell chamber at its technical site in the Netherlands.
Though not an EMC chamber, Plum Brook’s thermal vacuum chamber is made of aluminium that does provide electromagnetic shielding, making it a suitable substitute.
To test electronics, the spacecraft will simulate a flight in realistic conditions with most of its subsystems and equipment powered and in operational mode.
The electronics are first tested for compatibility in this electromagnetic shielded chamber. Equipment will be switched on to test whether they do potentially disturb one another.
In the second round of tests, electromagnetic fields will be applied using antennas around the spacecraft to test the susceptibility to interference from external sources. The Orion capsule is equipped with electromagnetic field sensors to take measurements as the disturbance frequencies are injected into the chamber.
While all subsystems are a potential source of radio frequency noise, of particular interest are the transmitters that intentionally generate radio frequencies. These can easily disturb other equipment sensitive to electromagnetic noise, like GPS receivers, tele-command modules and other communication elements.
Orion’s European Service Module provides power, propulsion, and crew life support.
ESA experts are on site monitoring all tests alongside NASA colleagues as Orion moves closer to its first flight without a crewaround the Moon.

Spanish built Alstom/GM-EMD Colas Class 67 Bo-Bo’s no.67 023 "Stella" leading, with 67 027 "Charlotte" bringing up the rear of the high speed test train, as it passes through Bolton Percy on the ECML.
Testing navigation sofware and acting as engine testbed. Taxiing past the spotting pavilion for a 10:15 departure to Milan-Linate. Returned back to Stockholm-Arlanda at 15:07.
A check of RTT last Tuesday alerted me to the running of the monthly 1Q47 Derby R.T.C. - Carlisle High Wapping Sidings PLPR train that evening.
A further check of a TOPS list showed that the recently refurbished 37521 was one of the two loco's in the frame for this caper so I headed out.
A phone convo' with Dave McDigital was had, I collected him in the car and together we sallied forth to Nethertown.
Sadly 521 was not leading but one can't really complain about a 37/4 in this day and age, 421 fronting up.
