The door of the truck says "IRON", so I'd guess that the MTA's Elevated Iron Fabrication team is doing some work here on the elevated structure of the Jamaica Line (J and Z trains).
This section of the Jamaica Line between the Alabama Avenue and Cypress Hills stations was originally used by the old Lexington Avenue and Broadway Els, and is said to be the oldest elevated structure in the subway system. The part that runs between Alabama and Schenck Avenues opened in 1885, and the rest of it, including what you see above, opened in 1893.
According to Forgotten New York, a little diagonal beam found on the elevated structure here (mostly obscured from view above, but clearly visible here) is the last remnant of an old connection to the Atlantic Branch of the Long Island Rail Road that was in service from about 1898 to 1917, cutting through the block now occupied by the old Blue Ridge Farms processing plant.

Trackwork under way at Ashley on the afternoon of 30 June 2019. I assume this is to lift the semi-permanent speed restriction which has hitherto existed at this location.
Weird.. no flushing... no water.
I had to take these quick before someone walked in... that would have looked weird!

I live about 12 miles away from Manchester. On the evening of the attack, I was in the city centre, about a mile away from the Arena, about 2 hours before it happened. This event has shaken me, but I have been so heartened by the coming together, compassion and support that has happened as a result. And so, I want to be able to give something back to the people affected by that attack, and I will post pictures of the wee creature who has told me would like to be made for this important work.
At the end of the evening, I will start a charity raffle for this wee creature, with all proceeds being donated to the Manchester Emergency Fund. I'll post full details of how the raffle will run once the wee creature has appeared.
So, this is what's on my work bench just now - can you guess which wee creature wants to be made?!

Printing in the darkroom today. Ahhh, I love the smell of stop bath in the air! This is an 11x14 print on Agfa Multi-Classic 111. It's from my last box of 50 sheets. They don't make this paper anymore.
Getting ready for work. Standard red shirt, khaki pants (not pictured), and of course, my old bathroom buddy looking over my shoulder, bart :)

Also, I love the clothes that I have gotten from Ali so much...maybe we should work out some kind of 21-Day Challenge-wide clothes swap? Anyone?
