cement mix up

Sometime back in the 1950's or 60's a cement mixer overturned on a rural road. By the time they could get to it the concrete in the mixer had set up, so they got the truck and left the mixer. Someone got creative several years ago and painted it to look like a NASA Space Capsule
My second week chasing AZCR started with a huge stroke of luck, and in my opinion the shot of the trip! The crew picked up a solid train of 21 empty cement hoppers for Clarkdale shortly after sunrise, then quickly began their southbound trip. The aesthetically pleasing unit train combined with an early departure from Drake made it a perfect candidate for this angle descending the grade towards Perkinsville, which I had scoped out the previous week.

The Stavronikita Monastery is 15th in class monasteries of Mount Athos. It is Greek, communal since 1968 and celebrated on December 6 St. Nicholas. It holds the miraculous icon of St. Nicholas of oysters. It called so, because when they took it out of the sea that had remained unchanged for hundrend years, in front of Saitn it was stuck an oyster that when pulled ran blood. It is the smallest monastery of Mount Athos, in the castle form a rudimentary court. The arbor is near the entrance of the monastery compensates the visitor. Situated on a rock, but who some years ago began to disintegrate. Thanks to the interventions K.E.D.A.K., this rock was reinforced with cement injections and thus stabilized. The aqueduct is located outside the monastery with arches, it is very remarkable architecturally.
Nog geen 500 meter verwijderd van de locatie van de vorige foto van de Bertschi trein en ook deze foto van de voormalige kalkslurrytrein van RTB bevinden we on langs de noordkaai van het Kluizendok. Hier zijn enkele bedrijven gevestigd zoals VVM Cement, Zoutman, Douglas en Max Terminals die worden uitgebaat door Ghent Transport & Storage. Ook cementproducent Cemmineral heeft haar fabriek gebouwd naast het dok. Op deze manier is het Belgische bedrijf een wereldspeler vanuit de Gentse kanaalzone aka North Sea Port.
Het logistieke voordeel van het spoor wordt vooralsnog enkel voor de Douglas terminals benut. De resterende 1000m dubbelsporig kaaispoor ten spijt is er enkel beweging te verwachten op de eerste 800 meter. Van deze 800 behoort er slechts 500 meter toe aan de Douglas Terminals. Om deze te bereiken wordt onder de laadinstallatie van Cemmineral door gereden. Deze constructie is slechts 5 jaar oud maar straalt afgezien van de recente opslagtanks toch een doorleefd industrieel karakter uit. Het ideale motief voor een kaaifoto als je het mij vraagt!
Op 21 januari staat RTB met de pb14 op Kluizendok Noord klaar met 22 GATX-wagens. De trein oogt maar klein in verhouding met de 20.000m3 volumineuze cementsilo's waarvan er in totaal 12 gebouwd zijn naast de cementmolen (buiten beeld). Even later zou men vertrekken richting Gent Zeehaven om vervolgens een dag en een locwissel later naar Aken te rijden.

This week's theme for Mosaic Montage Monday was Cement. Some moments in time balanced between the fixed heaviness of cement and the transitory lightness of blossoms. HMMM!

Winter sunset at one of the most unmistakable landmarks along the Santa Cruz coastline, the S. S. Palo Alto, more traditionally known as the old “cement ship”. Lodged at the end of the Seacliff State Beach fishing pier in Aptos, California, the ship was built from reinforced concrete to serve as an oil tanker at the end of World War I.
Dopo una sveglia ad un'ora illegale, l'obbiettivo della foto al mitico "Trino" all'alba riesce perfettamente, regalando anche un magnifico riflesso in una delle poche risaie allagate della zona.
After a very early alarm, the first target of the day successfully comes out, taking advantage of the beautiful reflection of one of the few paddy fields of the area.
