37402 preparing to depart Warrington Bank Quay working a delayed Warrington to Crewe Pathfinder charter. Delayed due to the Daventry to Warrington leg of The Clay Box where 37409 failed and had to be replaced by 37402. 37609 was on the other end.
This was just one of a number of 'mini' charters using the same stock that ran off Crewe on the 21st February, running over night to numerous lines that aren't possible to cover during day light due to service trains. Manchester Airport, Windermere & Blackpool South in the early hours of the 22nd then to Daventry freight terminal during the day, back up to Warrington then to Crewe via Birmingham New Street.
During the Mexican–American War of 1846–1848 The Mormon Battalion cut a road around Box Canyon in the process of opening a southern wagon route to California. Parts of the road are still visible there. The battalion was a volunteer unit of around 500 Latter-day Saints men whose march of nearly 2,000 miles from Council Bluffs, Iowa to San Diego, California helped to secure the eventual cession of much of the American Southwest from Mexico to the United States. The only battle they fought was against a large herd of wild cattle in Arizona. Anza Borrego State Park, California, US

Driven out of Metal Box Worcester by Neville ?
err his surname eludes me at the moment, age of course.!
It was a grim damp day.
I saw this Red Box project candidate some time ago, when diverted of the dualled section of the A23. Life gets in the way, so it had to wait.
However a trip the Park Cameras (thanks for organising the Birds Day) to buy a new tripod, and so the oportunity presented.
Form the royal cipher, it is from the time of Queen Victoria of the type where a timber, fronted by cast iron, box is built in to the host's wall.
A fine example that is quite tricky to see.

50 002 Superb passes Appleford Crossing Box with 1A37, the 07:15 Oxford - Paddington
The box survived here only because the main road turns through 90 degrees, so any failure to stop would mean ramming the crossing gates
Eventually technology won out and the box was closed on 27th May 2001 , demolished and replaced with remotely monitored CCTV
A cake for a friends 50th birthday. The shoe box is 12x6 and was a challenge for me to gananche and cover. Will stick to round cakes!!
Shoe, pearls and flowers all edible- except diamante button on the bow, nylon thread through the pearls and there is a bamboo skewer in the heel of the shoe.
Many of us spend most of our days sitting in an office. While many of these offices are a series of "cubicles", much like boxes, there has been a trend towards offices that have no vertical separation between staff. The open concept office has seen a resurgence in popularity. The expressed motivation for all staff occupying a single room has been that it promotes increased shared learning across the entire team by increasing team member interaction and face to face communication.
There is a growing body of research that has concluded that the open concept office has not been successful. It seems that many (perhaps not all) are more productive working in individual boxes.

Brown box car, one of three I have made. The others are light gray and (not finished yet) sand green. I decided the third one will be sand green to make it cool and fashionable ;-)
After the German convention, at which I have given a workshop of the modular heart, I got a picture by Brigitte Wehrle with her folding. And she extended it with a very interesting idea. The other end of the module can be formed to a box.
I try it out and here is my first result. It is very easy. Just an opening of the inside wings of the cupboard base. There are two ways. It is enough to open just one side, but I found it better to open both sides. Then I have equal layers. To lock the box just turn some paper of the end to the inside. It is enough to do it once, but I found it better to do it twice.
And it is possible to change the direction of the box walls. The heart can be outside, as here for the lid, or inside, which I found better for the base.
The height of the box can chosen with the length of the paper stripe. The box width is the half of the paper width.

The "boxing" is possible for every of the polygon crosses. So, more will come.

From squares.
Blue one in the center is same as this model I folded November last.
A very versatile box.
This box has just one layer of paper in most places so it uses paper effectively, allowing you to make a large box with given sheet size. In contrast to Common Box, outside is completely smooth, and this box is also much stronger than Common Box. The downside is that the lock of the corners is placed inside rather than outside which takes away some space and may make placing objects inside the box difficult. However, I designed this box with the purpose of using it as a lower part of two-part box sets — to be matched to decorated box lids, and this role it fulfills quite well.
It’s a simple design so I wouldn't be surprised if someone had come up with it before.
18-24 months. Work in progress. Loose-ish cotton weave fabric with gorgeous lightweight white cotton lining both from The Cloth House. Really enjoying making it as tidy on the inside as the outside.
It must have been a special birthday for Kings Lynn-based rail tour promoter Nigel Dobbing as West Coast Railways, the train operating company which operates his charter trains, provided a a rake of coaches including some heritage vehicles for a special private charter to celebrate the event. Of note was the use of the 'Queen of Scots' observation car positioned at the rear of the train, and the use of WCRC's recently restored 'Jubilee' No. 45699 'Galatea' to haul the train. On a grey 20th May 2013 the ensemble is seen passing Whittlesea signal box heading back from Kings Lynn to Carnforth with the empty stock off the previous days charter.

Thank you to everyone who pauses long enough to look at my photo. All comments and Faves are very much appreciated
One of the local internet providers runs their network through people's properties. That box likely contains a power source and a router/switch. Funny and in some way, also practical.

The L&SWR Type 1 box at Pinhoe on the outskirts of Exeter opened c.1875. It contained an 18 lever Stevens & Sons Tappet frame and controlled the single to double line connection from here to Exeter Central, after the former L&SWR West of England main line was singled from here to Honiton in 1967. The adjacent level crossing had been converted to barriers by the date of this photo and Pinhoe box was abolished on 15th February 1988 when the area it controlled came under the control of a panel installed in Exmouth Junction box.
a very new box by melisande.
actually I started to fold it because the cp looks so nice and simple. I hadn't been aware of how cool the lock is. very wonderful indeed. great design, melisande!
folded from khepera bookbinding paper which was a delight.
Paper: Octagon, Hexagon, Pentagon cutted from Wrapping Paper, 10 cm Square
Model: Paul Groom
I found the diagram for the triangle box in my last year's Origami Calender. After folding it, it was obvious that this works for any polygon. So I made some more. Most fun was the square box: Starting with a pentagon, just to end up with something square was kind of weird....
Dunford East signalbox 5th July 1970. It's about 0500 on a Sunday morning and I'm waiting for some ballast trains to return to the tip from engineering work in Sheffield.
I had signed on at 0200 and off at 0935, it was a pleasure to work here on mornings like this seeing the sun rise and watching all the wildlife. Checking my diarys to see the shift I'd worked made interesting reading, for instance the entry for January 8th 1970 when I was on 1400 to 2200 shift says, Scooter broke down on way to work left at Penistone station and lift on Bo-Bo 26043 to work, home on Bo-Bo 26022 to West Silkstone and bus from there (thick snow) those were the days you wouldn't be able to get a bus in thick snow these days.
