Vintage porcelain gas signs on display at the intersection of TX-64 and FM 15 in Wright City. They've got quite an assortment of authentic signs you can view from the road pertaining to the East Texas oilfield.
Ernie Wright Homestead from Shane the movie
The 1953 Western classic film Shane was largely filmed in the Jackson Hole Valley. Most of the set locations for the film have long ago been dismantled including the town that was built on the Antelope Flats and several other cabins. This cabin and two other smaller structures just next to it are the only set from the movie that remain. The three structures were actually real cabins of early Jackson Hole settlers that were repurposed for the movie.
Harrison Wright Falls is the first waterfall on Kitchen Creek located below the confluence of the Glen Leigh and Ganoga Glen branches of the stream. The falls drop over a broad ledge, producing a single curtain-type plunging fall which has formed a rather large pool at the base of the cliff.

Wright's Tower in the Middlesex Fells Reservation just north of Boston.
We got there at about 4:30 and ran into some park rangers about to lock it up. They were nice enough to let us go up and see the view first, and they said that they usually close it "by 5", and also close it if it's raining. But, if you get there after its closed, you can still get a good view of the skyline from some nearby rocks.
Frank Lloyd Wright put a lot of care into his home, which came to be his experimental proving ground. The circular brickwork around the deck next to the front entrance is quite varied with thick mortar between, showcasing each brick. Over the century plus years that this has stood, the bricks near the ground, toward the bottom of this image, have taken on a mossy character, while some of the Cherokee red bricks retain their unique style.

The Wright brothers, Orville and Wilbur, were two American aviation pioneers generally credited with inventing, building, and flying the world's first successful motor-operated airplane. They made the first controlled, sustained flight of a powered, heavier-than-air aircraft with the Wright Flyer on December 17, 1903, 6 km south of Kitty Hawk, North Carolina. The brothers were also the first to invent aircraft controls that made fixed-wing powered flight possible (Wikipedia)

Another view of the derelict old Wright Farmhouse which was built in 1905, the year Saskatchewan became a province.

Frank Lloyd Wright's first independent commission was designing and building the Winslow House in 1893. With his trademark roman bricks, and plaster bas relief ringing the second story, it has a mass and permanence that goes beyond its dimensions. He later called it "the first prairie house."
Very high res panorama (with a dash of HDR), so zoom in! (hmm I see flickr cut it down to half the resolution that I posted - still lots of detail though) An experiment of a different kind for me...
Once again Fishwicks of Leyland appear on my photostream - they have a wide range of vehicles that are a credit to their company. Here, one of many VDL SB200s in the fleet with Wright bodies of various ages, 26 (YJ07 JDZ) with Wright Commander body, is seen at Preston Bus Station terminating on service 109.
The M&M Job crosses Wright Slough, an inlet of the Menominee River, before shoving back across to switch the Kimberly-Clark mill on the west side of Marinette.
Roger d'Astous studied at Taliesin during the Usonian period of Wright's career. He went on to build many houses, churches, and commercial buildings in Canada, mostly in Quebec. However this one is in Brockville Ontario. The pictures above show the current renovation of the decaying existing car-port and conversion to a garage and car-port.
Whilst walking into work today this Wright Streetair LK16ETA heading over Waverley Bridge on demonstration. 08th November 2016.
I was digging through some vintage Jules Verne hardbacks and hidden under the cover sleeve was this old photograph.
Just received these awesome guys from Vinnie, so a quick vintage shot.
35912 Ipswich Reds (First)

One of a batch of 17 due at Ipswich over the coming weeks/ months. The new vehicles being forced on First at Ipswich owing to a shorter than standard depot apparently, although a driver has said this will help First bid for future Sizewell C contracts too...watch this space I guess?
I think I am the first one to build a Wright Brothers model, correct me if I'm wrong.
So, I finally got inspired to build something! :D I went into this build with the mindset "I'm going to fail." But I accually succeeded! I actually did a really good job.
I wanted to make something related to NC's Coast, so I came up with the Wright Bros. The Wright Bros. have always interested me, I've been to KittyHawk and saw their work place and the rail that the Flyer was on. I guess I honored them by this build. :3

Tucked away in the middle of the Wright Forest, accessible only by foot, is the striking curved Bridge 8. Left to rot after the line closed in 1953, it eventually succumbed when the Ash Wednesday fires tore through the area in 1983. Following the decision to rebuild the line from Lakeside to Gembrook, the bridge was completely rebuilt with concrete footings and steel beams, and was completed in 1996.
Today the Lakeside-Gembrook section is lightly utilised, although plans are being devised which may shift some of the passenger loading from the heavily-used Belgrave-Menzies Creek section. Meanwhile, the daily Gembrook service and the occasional Footplate Experience Train, such as this one hauled by 861, are all that use the section.
