HMCS Bras d'Or (FHE 400) was a hydrofoil that served in the Canadian Forces from 1968 to 1971. During sea trials in 1969, the vessel exceeded 63 knots (117 km/h; 72 mph), making her the fastest unarmed warship in the world.
The vessel was originally built from 1960 to 1967 for the Royal Canadian Navy, as a project for the testing of anti-submarine warfare technology on an ocean-going hydrofoil. The RCN was replaced on 1 February 1968 by the unified Canadian Armed Forces, and HMCS Bras d'Or was commissioned into that service several months later. Changes in priorities and cost overruns later led to the project's cancellation.

Alexander Graham Bell's favorite room @ The Grand Narrows Hotel, Grand Narrows ( near Iona) Cape Breton Nova Scotia. April 27, 2010. Hope he slept as well as I did, could barely hear the pounding rain under the peepers!

A Canadian-American aeronautical research group formed on 30 September 1907, under the leadership of Dr. Alexander Graham Bell.

Days are numbered for coal in the UK, and indeed the 60 itself.
The trackbed in the foreground is being prepped for new pointwork serving the Old Bank Sidings. Ironic really as this is now partially removed and is redundant.
The Transrail 60 is stored at the Training Centre.
94 Tutela Heights Road, Brantford, Ontario, Canada. A National Historic Site.
The Historic Sites and Monuments Board of Canada plaque reads as follows:
"Here at his parents' home in July 1874, Alexander Graham Bell conceived the fundamental idea of the telephone and in August 1876, carried out the first successful long-distance trials.
The homestead evokes the formative influence of Bell's father, an authority on the acoustics of speech, and of his mother who was deaf. They stimulated their son's lifelong interest in teaching the deaf to speak, a passion that proved crucial to the discovery of the telephone.
Since the early 20th century, the Bell Homestead has served as a symbol of this inventor's remarkable achievement."
Where Professor Alexander Graham Bell perfected and sent the first message from in 1876.
