31118 & 31213 pass Wellingborough Station box with a southbound aggregate train on 7th May 1983.
Both locos are seen not far from their place of birth in Loughborough, with 31118 being produced in 1959 and withdrawn in February 1989.
The trailing loco, 31213 was built in 1960 and survives as 31465 (renumbered in 1985) and is currently located at Barrow Hill having served as a Network Rail test train loco.
Wellingborough Station signalbox was closed in 1987 when Leicester PSB took over.
Doncaster-built 56056 powers empty PTAs past Caledonian Road & Barnsbury station on 1 August 1989. The station was later rebuilt with an extra platform, whilst 56056 was withdrawn back in 2004.

Aggregate Industries "Ice Cream" liveried 59005 Kenneth J Painter and 59001 Yeoman Endeavour pass Parton's Corner near Frome with 7A17 10.24 Merehead to Acton working.
In the consist are a number of Bardon JGAs which appeared on the Mendip routes for a while around this time having not been seen in these parts since the early 90s.
The load in question from the famous Torr Works is of course Limestone, not Rhinestone, sorry Dolly.

Leadership fixes potholes, not patching.
Chronic neglect of Portland's streets is manifesting in the burgeoning number and size of dangerously large potholes across the city. Here, pothole road damage is seen in Mount Tabor Park, Portland, Oregon.
Engineering: From a technical perspective, a great deal of information can be gleaned from a deep pothole, as it provides a cross-section-view of the pavement structural section, or lack thereof, as in this case. Here, the asphalt wearing surface is heavily pitted, highly oxidized and brittle, confirming many years of neglect. At this pothole, the asphalt layer is thick; confirming this road has received an overlay, but perhaps covering up this pothole without first repairing it. The base course layer is hard to characterize because of the quantity of water present. Roadway base course should be well-graded, faceted aggregate so as to provide optimum particle interlock. This dangerous pothole, in the traveled way and where pedestrians cross, can be repaired by cutting out and reconstructing, but simply patching or overlaying will rapidly lead to a repeat failure, preventing a level of service, or service life, that should be reasonably expected of it.

59 001 "Yeoman Endeavour" in Aggregate Industries livery, passes Victory Crossing. The service is the 6C28, 12:48 Exeter Riverside to Westbury agregate empties, on the 16th December 2024.
Aggregates provide a lot of business to the Wheeling, evidenced by the first of two eastbound rock trains this day from the Carey quarry needing every bit of 4 SD40-2s to get across the railroad. With 125 loads on the drawbar, 712 is about to cross Ohio Highway 58 at Huntington.

Foster Yeoman revolutionised freight haulage in Britain when it acquired five Class 59 diesel locomotives from General Motors between 1985 and1990. These outstanding traction units today carry the livery of Foster Yeoman's parent company Aggregate Industries and operate (with similar locomotives originally supplied to ARC) in the Mendip Rail pool. Whilst there is no reason to believe that any have these companies has subsequently looked elsewhere for alternative traction, it is interesting to speculate what a Vossloh G2000 would look like in the various liveries (20-Dec-12).

Anthopleura elegantissima
These are animals, not plants. They are stuck to the rock just under the surface of the water (the white line) in a small, shallow tidal pool (the barnacles are above the water). A few minutes before this picture was taken all of the anemones were closed up in a greenish ball, tentacles hidden. Anemones have stingers on their tentacles that can poison any small sea life that blunders into them; the stunned or dead prey is then sucked into the stomach and the indigestible bits ejected. The poison on the tentacles of anemones around Victoria does not affect humans.
Says Gordon Green on E-Fauna BC: "A small intertidal anemone known as Anthopleura elegantissima is a master of cloning. A single anemone can create large aggregations of genetically identical anemones. As the clone expands, it may run into another clone of different genetic makeup. When one clone encroaches on the territory of another, the anemones on the periphery engage in battle using bulbous clubs full of nematocysts to sting the encroaching anemones. The anemones keep stinging each other until one draws away or dies. Considerable injury may be inflicted on members of both clones, and eventually, the clones establish a narrow band of bare rock between them. Encroachment by either clone into this no anemone's land results in more fighting."
In Buddhist philosophy, the mind is seen as a constantly changing stream of mental phenomena, called the five aggregates.
These aggregates include form, sensation, perception, volition, and consciousness, which arise and pass away continuously.
