Waterloo Memorial Recreation Centre (April 7th)
Waterloo Siskins , a Jr. B hockey club playing in the Cherrey Cup Finals against the Listowel Cyclones, chose to use the opportunity to promote organ donation awareness, as it coincided with Green Shirt Day, in honor of Logan Boulet of the Humboldt Broncos bus tragedy. One of the equipment managers on the team is currently on the waiting list for a new kidney. An information table was set up by our advocate group - Life Donation Awareness Association (LDAA) to promote organ donation awareness to the many hockey fans who were all touched by the Humboldt tragedy.
En cette période d'effervescence touristique, un lieu intéressant à découvrir et très visité. La bataille de Waterloo s'est déroulée le 18 juin 1815. Elle s'est terminée par la victoire décisive de deux armées : celle des alliés composée principalement de Britanniques, d'Allemands (contingents du Hanovre, du Brunswick, du Nassau) et de Néerlandais, commandée par le duc de Wellington, et celle des Prussiens, commandée par le maréchal Blücher ; toutes deux opposées à l'armée française dite Armée du Nord emmenée par l'empereur Napoléon Ier.
La commune de Waterloo se situe à une vingtaine de kilomètres au sud de Bruxelles, en Belgique. Toutefois, les combats n'eurent pas lieu à Waterloo mais un peu plus au sud, sur le territoire des communes actuelles de Lasne et de Braine-l'Alleud. La bataille a souvent été appelée en France « bataille de Mont Saint-Jean », lieu plus précis de l'engagement effectif. En Allemagne, elle est appelée « bataille de la Belle-Alliance ».
Cette bataille est la dernière à laquelle prit part directement Napoléon Bonaparte, qui avait repris le contrôle de la France durant la période dite des Cent-Jours. Malgré son désir de poursuivre la lutte avec de nouvelles forces qui se reconstituaient, il dut, par manque de soutien politique, abdiquer quatre jours après son retour à Paris.
The track occupying platforms 1 to 4 at Waterloo has been there for as long as I can remember (1960s), and I suspect since at least the 1930s. The rails may have been changed before (although the present ones are very old, judging by the thickness of rail remaining!), but the basic permanent way is ancient, evidenced by the sleepers being virtually buried in the decades of accumulated debris, oil and ballast. By contrast, the opposite platfom (3) has just had brand new track installed.
The start away from London Waterloo was a challenge for any driver and this departure was no exception. The driver of 35028 'Clan Line', bereft of its nameplates, will be happy for a mug of tea from his can sitting over the firebox once he gets on the road away from London in this April 1967 photograph. D6585 waits to depart in the adjacent platform, and the inbound train locomotive, 34087 '145 Squadron' would follow light engine to Nine Elms depot for disposal.
