On 22nd December, 1894, the Norwegian ship, Abana was sailing from Liverpool to Florida but was caught up in a storm and mistook the then recently built Blackpool Tower for a lighthouse. The Abana was first seen off North Pier but by the time the lifeboat, which had to be towed by horse from Blackpool to Bispham, had been launched it had drifted to Little Bispham where it was wrecked. The crew of 17 all survived including the ships dog and were taken to the Red Lion public house in nearby Bispham where the Landlord ended up keeping the dog! The ship's bell still hangs in St Andrews Church in Cleveleys.
Au regard de l'absence des vitres de custode il s'agit d'un modèle bas de gamme, entre autres une 14 RE pour celle ci.
This photo of a wrecked train at Sintanni was taken by August "Gus" Firgau, 712th TROB (Transportation Railway Operating Battalion) during the summer of 1953. Gus was assigned to the Taekwangni rail station.
Taekwangni was located on the 3rd TMRS Sintanni Line. It was just south of town of Sintanni which can be viewed on the Google Earth Map: Chorwon Valley and Ch'at'an-ch'on Valley on page 4.
Photographed in Carlise Bay Marine Park, Barbados, where there are 6 wrecks...
Berwyn: Carlisle Bay ~ 20ft ~ A 70 ft long World War I French
Tug Boat sunk in 1919 by her own crew. The Berwyn sits between 7 and 10 feet below the surface depending on the tide. As a result of the calm water in the bay and the age of this wreck the Berwyn is covered in marine life including healthy hard and soft coral growth and their associated reef creatures.
Ce-Trek: Carlisle Bay ~ 45ft ~ The Ce-Trek, a derelict boat constructed of cement was sunk in January 1986. This shipwreck sits in deeper water on the northern edge of the park and is home to nice coral, soft coral and sponge growth.
Eillon: Carlisle Bay ~ 55ft ~ This 110ft drug boat was tied up for ~6 years in the Bridgetown careenage before it was sunk on 8th June 1996 in Carlisle Bay Marine Park. The wreck is easily accessqible for penetration and has an air pocket in the bow big enough to a conversation at 25′ under.
Bajan Queen: Carlisle Bay ~ 35ft ~ She was Barbados’ first tugboat named the “Pelican” when the Bridgetown Harbour was being constructed in the 1960’s. A decade later, as more modern tugboats were purchased; the Pelican was then converted to a party boat called “Bajan Queen”. The Bajan Queen holds many memories for thousands of Barbadians and visitors alike. After years of operation as the party spot the Bajan Queen was donated to the Coastal Zone Management Unit. From there with the assistance of our very own Andre Miller the Bajan Queen was cleaned up and sunk on 19th May 2002 in Carlisle Bay Marine Park. She now sits only a few feet below the surface and is accumulating some excellent fish life and good coral diversity.
Cornwallis: Carlisle Bay ~15ft ~ A Canadian freighter sunk by a torpedo from a German U-Boat during World War II. This wreck was relocated from a very high boat traffic region of the bay to this Marine Reserve on 22nd October 2003.
Barge: Carlisle Bay ~ 12ft ~ A Naval Landing Barge found in Carlisle Bay. This wreck is now home to numerous reef fish including the puffer’s bigger cousin the porcupine fish.

I couldn't find any information on this one, but from what I can tell it looks like the wreck of an A-1 Skyraider.
This is the wrecking bar my father made out of a car spring. Probably in the 1940s or 1950s. It is very useful for trim in houses and as a foot-lever for hanging doors.

Locals refer to this unique and wondrous site merely as 'The Train Wreck'.
The Train Wreck, seven box cars scattered over a One kilometres patch of forest, the debris from a high speed freight train crash in 1957 or 1958, South Of Function Junction near the Whistler Blackcomb resort in British Columbia, Canada. Too expensive to clear up, apart from the engine unit, the Whistler community decided to leave the wreck in situ and allow the birth of an amazing location, a bike trail and even an art gallery thanks to the incredibly vivid and stylish graffiti that covers each and every box car.
The train wreck is sort of a local secret, and I only found out about it's existence from one of the young hotel receptionists at the Crystal Lodge Hotel in Whistler village, who told me that it was great for photography and hiking. So for this series of photographs, let's wander along the forest pathway, passing waterfalls and crossing the train tracks, into the wilderness to discover those not so secret carriages from the train wreck.
The walk begins at Olives Community Market at 1200 Alpha Lake Road, Whistler, BC V0N 1B1, close to Function Junction in Whistler BC. Behind Olives there is an unmarked pathway into the dense and beautiful forest, though you only find this out upon asking in Olives community market where the ladies serving fantastic gluten free and fresh foods were incredibly friendly and helpful in handing me a printed piece of paper with directions to the train wreck itself. Here, walking at a fairly leisurely pace, almost one hour into the forest trail, the railway track takes a devious left turn and inwards to the forest are the striken box cars, like fallen warriors on the battlefield.
On the point of giving up, an hour into the trail and old legs and dogs paws screaming 'Enough already', we came back out onto the railway track from the forest. Up ahead I walked around a bend and saw in the distance a very sharp left handed bend. Could this be the point of derailment I thought? Walking closer, my eyes looked left once more into the forest and there I could just see the faintest of glimpses, a rusting, shattered box car.... we had found them at last

Have no idea what happened, but there was a down light pole and dirt was everywhere on MY side of the road.
Some pics I'm uploading to hopefully help Don Wilson out with the scale of these things.
This is a wrecked ship. I forgot to grab pics of an intact one, but here you can see some Vandals around it for scale. Vandals are a little taller than the player characters, from what I can tell (like maybe six and a half feet?).
Feel free to weigh in. I know the Fallen that serve the Queen seem taller, but it's not clear to me if they're vandals or captains.
The Peter Iredale was a four-masted steel barque sailing vessel that ran ashore October 25, 1906...

I seem to be having a little trouble getting into the destructive mode... -must be the perfectionist in me. Oh, but look, I stuck my favorite Squidoo sticker right on the front cover!!
