Unfortunately I didn't get much further with this one, the closure had been announced but the brewery was still in production at the time of this visit. I was in Wales solely for Coal and Dinorwic, although I did pay a visit to Cardiff managing to fit in a little bit of English Electric Type 3 haulage from Llanelli to Cardiff with 37418. Sadly I never returned to Brains (or Cardiff infact as of yet) and so ended up missing out on this one, leaving just a few externals from that reccie as the place has been demolished recently.
Loving the old truck though, hope a new home was found for it...
Virgin liveried Class 57/3 57309 'Brains' sweeps through the Lune Gorge, at Carlingill, Tebay on 2nd April 2007 with 6J37 Kingmoor SS to Chirk Kronospan
57309 was built as D1931 at Brush, Loughborough Works in 1966, works number BR693 of 1966. Delivered to British Railways Cardiff Canton depot. In 1973 under TOPS she became 47254. ETH conversion came in 1986, along with long range fuel tanks. Renumbering to 47651, she was sent to Gateshead, then Eastfield, then Bristol Bath Road as the new InterCity sector dallied over where there fleet should be based.
In 1989 InterCity opted to fit long range fuel tanks to the majority of it's locomotives, and number them 47801 - 47851. 47651 therefore became 47806. Upon privatization, she passed to Porterbrook leasing, and was leased to Virgin Cross Country. She remained in service until 2002.
Rebuilt at Brush Loughborough Works in 2003 with General Motors 12-645F3B power units and refurbished Class 56 alternators. Initially released without Delner couplers and the name 'Brains' in the Thurnerbirds theme adopted by Virgin West Coast. In 2012 she passed to Direct Rail Services, who took over the Thunderbird responsibility. and renamed 'Pride of Crewe'.

I think the little spots of unmixed gel food coloring add a nice gruesome touch!

It comes with a recipe for the jell-o which includes evaporated (or condensed- I don't remember) milk to make it opaque.
Here's one of the custom skulls I've made to bring to New York comic con - If you like a bit of zombie action, you'll dig this little 'Brains' special.
My brain actually. Cross sections taken when I took part in a memory experiment at Berkeley University in California.
The two women are from random faces. The decapodian is an older Zoidberg face that I accidentally scratched a while ago.
A rather unusual bit of rock found whilst wandering about the point at Copacabana Beach - where a stack of my other recent shots were taken.
As you can see there was absolutely nothing in the sky of interest here so the best I could do was lengthen the exposure a bit and step down the sky with a Grad ND to make sure that it didn't blow out too much.
Hope you enjoy these pink brains ;-)

I love how this one came out, like a trapped confused zombie caught by torchlight. She looks a bit sad :( (and hungry!)
Uris Hall at Cornell (Psych department) keeps a bunch of brains in jars. Presumably the thoughts are not preserved, as formaldehyde is not a proper medium.
I've been wracking my brains all day for ideas and I couldn't come up with anything good. But then, I saw Alex playing with his old binoculars. Sometimes creativity just comes to me instead of me going to it. I just need to wait for the right moment and let it happen. Now, if I could only take a good picture to make it worth it. #Kids #binoculars #play #moments #fun #creativity #family #playtime #photography #365photochallenge #365project #project365 #365_today #Project365 #camera #365photos #photos #daily #dailypics #dailyproject #documentyourlife
Halloween brains made from a homemade red velvet cake recipe :)
Wraps and icing included in a cupcake kit, too cute of an idea!
