Another trip back to 2008 this week to a bus route that is now no more. AV 64 is seen arriving at the railway station in Sutton with a 31C from Howth. This route operated between the two villages via Howth Summit. The route itself was brought in in 2005 and pretty much followed the same routing as the former route 88, which itself was brought in to replace the Hill of Howth tram. The 31C lasted until approximately 2009 when it was abolished through a network review, along with a few other little-used routes. The 31 and 31B provided a service to parts of Howth Head previously served by the 31C.
AV 64 went on to have an interesting career when it finished in public service - it became one of the two vehicles used on the Ghost Bus Tour and is still in service in 2017. Sutton Station, 12/03/2008

I took this photo about 12 months ago, before I built the drawer and shelf unit on the passenger side. It was nice to have my bike so handy, and I miss the bike, but adding drawers and shelves has made a significant difference in van-livability.
My first throw back is CP 299 running north in Des Plaines with a SOO SD60, ex-BN SD40-2, and a SOO SD60M
This was taken around 1992 aboard our sailboat. That's my late ex on the left. Discovered this while going through his effects. Yeppers, still had lots of hair, but it's graying quite nicely. And I smoked. Quit that nasty habit in 1999.
Yas she is one of my fav models of all time. AND I am totally convinced that she is inspiration behind my favorite Fashion Royalty sculpt Dominique Makéda. I see so many similarities in the two. I have NEVER seen a bad picture of Queen Iman I SWEAR.

This is a photo that I took in 2006. Somewhere in Texas. The original had blown highlights and washed out colors. I wanted to see how much I could get out of it with DXO. Happy Slider Sunday!
I was sorting some old photos and found some that I had taken in the production area where I was employed as a graphic designer. Without all these machines and pieces of various equipment it would not matter that we upfront spent time to design a beautiful piece of art or that our sales staff worked hard to secure the account because without production and all the pieces of machinery we could not produce the final (book, magazine, brochure, poster, etc) that shipped to the public which enabled us to stay open for business. Yeah for machines . . .

Missed so much!

This week it is a trip back to 2013, to a scene that has changed a lot. RA 216 is seen on Suffolk Street operating the Dublin Bus City Tour. In February 2017 this was rebranded as DoDublin and a new livery was introduced. The tour itself underwent a revision of its route in May 2017.
RA 216 was introduced to the fleet in 1995 and was the first RA to be delivered in CitySwift livery. In 2001 it joined the tour fleet before being withdrawn in 2014.
Suffolk Street at this time was the main route for buses making their way from the southside to the northside but Luas Cross City works saw it closed off and it will probably never reopen again to traffic. Most bus routes were diverted via Pearse Street. 24/05/2013
Anyone remember the simple days. Just a minifig and his cumbersome blaster.

Drift Creek Falls Suspension Bridge
Lincoln County Oregon
Drift Creek Bridge
• Latitude: 44.93235
• Longitude: -123.85176
• Elevation: 630 feet
• Height: over 100 feet
• Length: 240 feet
Description
This trail bridge spans Drift Creek in the Oregon Coast Range. The 240 foot long bridge reaches from one wall to the canyon to the other, over 100 feet above the creek. The walkway surface is 3 feet wide. The bridge is supported by two 29 foot towers and anchored by bolts planted in rock on one side and in 29 cubic yards of concrete on the other. The bridge provides a view down to 80 foot Drift Creek Falls, as well us closeup views of the upper forest canopy.
The bridge is dedicated to the late Scott Paul, a trail builder with the Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest. Mr. Paul was the construction foreman on the early Forest Service portion of the construction. He died in a tragic rigging accident during construction. The bridge was completed by Sahale, a firm that specializes in trail bridge construction. In our area, they also built the Lava Canyon Bridge and rebuilt a bridge on Wind River that accesses Shipperton Falls Fishway for personnel of the Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife.
From Sahale's website: "Drift Creek Bridge is unusual for light pedestrian suspension bridges in that it incorporates a quasi-stiffening truss in the deck. The bridge is anchored in rock on one side of the gorge and concrete deadmen are used on the other. Numerous design changes were made by Sahale during the process of construction, including changes to the anchor systems, tower configuration, truss assembly, wind cable connections, and railing system. Materials, including concrete, were mobilized to the site via helicopter, and the mainspan was erected from a skyline, more than 100 feet above the canyon floor."
This week we are going back twenty-four years to 1999, to a bus that has featured here before, on the same route and in the same location. Except this time there is a better view of the bus.
99 D 73675 is seen in Ringsend and was a DAF Plaxton demonstrator built in 1997. Converted to run on liquified petroleum gas, it was trialled with a few operators in the United Kingdom (as P10 LPG) as well as Dublin Bus. After it returned to the United Kingdom, it was converted to diesel power and operated with Arriva until around 2013.
The bus is operating a service on route 3 to Larkhill, although the destination blind is missing the "h". Route 3 started operating between Whitehall / Larkhill and Sandymount in 1940. For its final twenty years or so of operation, certain departures were extended to / from UCD Belfield. The route was partially replaced on the by new route 1 in 2012 which covered the southside leg through Ringsend and Sandymount. In 2021 this part of the routing was replaced by routes C1 and C2.
Ringsend, 19/10/1999
This week we are going back thirty-seven years to D 754 on Leeson Street with a service on route 13 to Ballymun. The 13 dates back to 1939 when it ran between Glasnevin and Beechwood Avenue. In 1948 the northern terminus relocated to Wadelai Park before reaching Ballymun in 1980. In 1985 the southern terminus moved to Palmerston Park, before relocating to Merrion Square in the 1990s. In October 2011, route 13 became a cross-city route under Network Direct, running from Harristown to Grange Castle. This new route combined the previous routes 13, 13A, 51B and 51C.
D 754 was delivered new to CIE in 1975 and was withdrawn by Dublin Bus in 1994, having operated out of Donnybrook and Ringsend garages.
Finally the bus is in an all-over ad for the well-known sweets Smarties. 01/07/1984
There is a lot I could say about this photo of Thomas Boldman on his personal motorcar in Kentland, Indiana in the 1920's. The Boldman family worked on this line from start to finish. They helped build it in the CI&S days, worked primarily as track inspectors or in some aspect of water tower and pumphouse employees. They worked on this line mostly between Sheff and Schneider. The photo above shows Thomas in the morning after setting his motorcar on the tracks near Allen street, which looks like where it was taken from looking north. He lived 2 blocks away and after #80 would go north, he would set on and ride to Sheff to work the pumphouse. He had no protection and no authority and allegedly had many "Close Calls" with extras.
The Boldman family built, maintained and unfortunately, dismantled the Egyptian line.
The photograph is believed to have been taken by Wilmer Boldman. Photo looks north at the northbound home signal.
Throwback Thursday will be photos from the Boldman family collection of the NYC's Egyptian line.

Hoy he descubierto esta foto haciendo revisión del viaje a Thailandia , técnicamente la foto esta hecha hace casi ya dos años . Pero para mi ha sido como descubrirla hoy . La verdad no habÃa visto las fotos desde que las tome , era como que querÃa guardar el recuerdo de ese paraÃso en mi retina y que ninguna foto harÃa justicia a tanta belleza . Esta toma esta hecha en maya bay ,cerca de kho pi pi y cuenta la historia de esa noche , en la que cantamos ,bebimos ... eramos completos desconocidos. La magia de la playa , el olor a hierba , y el buen rollo hacen de aquella noche inolvidable.
