VR is a government-owned railway company in Finland. VR's most important function is the operation of Finland's passenger rail services with 250 long-distance and 800 commuter rail services every day.

The south west is a good place for non pcv buses, almost every other month something pops onto the radar, often with a question mark attached. Some live on for years undiscovered as living accommodation or store sheds behind those Cornish or Devon hedges. This is ODL662R now someone’s home in South Devon and smartly repainted into this unusual blue & white.
The real treat from the summer of course though, was during Goodwood Revival; where around 20 vintage buses descend on Chichester to operate shuttles into a bygone era! My stallion for the event was Stagecoach West's Bristol VR, JOU 160P; oddly the very first time I've driven a Closed Top VR, despite having done thousands of miles on Open Top ones! She is seen here operating late into the night on Serv: 902.
Lo que la gente hable a mis espaldas, los reproches injustificados, las críticas destructivas, los consejos que no me convienen, los comentarios soeces y en general, todo lo que no me conviene... 😄

Ex Southern Vectis Bristol VR NDL652R with ECW bodywork circles the Detling Showground as part of the Diamond Jubilee parade at the 2022 South East Bus Festival.
The bus was new in 1976 and moved to NIBS of Wickford in 1990 before entering preservation in 2005.
Back in the good old days (well from the enthusiast point of view) you could even find a gaggle of VRs in Devon away from the masses which were still in use in Cornwall.
This is Tavistock outstation in the morning after the school runs.
1201 was a Torpoint VR but was covering for shortages especially as that day it was working the 185 to Bere Alston normally the haunt of the Merc Minis!
Sadly 1201 was written off by a new Torpoint driver a few months later when it hit a low wall.
The other two VRs 1155 and 1262 survived for a good few more years the latter being one of my personal favourites.
I decided to build a new 'locomotive' for Brickvention, and thought a railmotor would be a quicker and easier build than another steam loco.
Built from 1948, the 102hp and 153hp railmotors consisted of a 4 wheel driving unit with a trailing passenger unit mounted on a single bogie.
The model has a PF train motor under the trailing unit, with the wheels on the motor unit unpowered. The motor and trailing units can slide apart by ~1 stud allowing the railmotor to handle standard Lego curves, but close up on straights and wide-radius curves.

BMW Z4 sDrive20i (E89)
Fortaleza, Brazil
The most beautiful and sporty Z4 i've ever seen here in Fortaleza, this one really nailed it. Red like a cherry and sharp like a knife. I don't know how it performs, but at least it looks amazing. The Z4 looks much, much better than the Mercedes SLK for sure.

Yosemite Waterfalls in the Spring!
Yosemite Falls, Bridalveil Falls, and Nevada Falls are all raging due to el nino and all the snow and rain over the winter! :)
Landing a plane on an aircraft carrier is often described as a 'controlled crash'. No such trouble for this young silver gull (Chroicocephalus novaehollandiae) caught moments before touchdown.
Discovered after this trip that the D200 had a slight back focus issue that was more apparent the wider the aperture (surprise!). As a result it's been moved on - but I've since picked up another one that is spot on :-)

Love how sharp this turned out. I'm having more success with the close-up lens on my new Lomo' Instant Wide +. Fuji Instax Wide film + bulb setting.
Antique lock and key...a gift from my daughter. Added to a few bits of pieced-together chain, this is now a favorite necklace.
