“Class is an aura of confidence that is being sure without being cocky. Class has nothing to do with money. Class never runs scared. It is self-discipline and self-knowledge. It's the sure-footedness that comes with having proved you can meet life. ”

― Ann Landers

10 Mei 2022 - Tijdens een meivakantie werd er even enkele dagen volop gehobbied in Duitsland en Frankrijk. De reis begon in het prachtige Ällgau, en ging zo uiteindelijk naar de Harz en daarna Frankrijk.

Op 10 mei 2022 werd er in de middag op de lijn tussen Burghausen en Mühldorf gepost, in de hoop op enkele goederentreinen vanuit Burghausen richting Tußling (en Mühldorf).

De enige goed voor de zon rijdende goederentrein was deze fraaie keteltrein, getrokken door de enige rode DB Cargo rode class66, voorheen van de MEG geweest.

This somewhat rare and unusual car/truck took Best in Class at the 2024 Lime Rock Concours Show. The truck was developed around Studebaker's Dictator car, (looks more like their Commander model, so the info could be wrong) used it's chassis along the front and rear styling features of the car. This hybrid car/truck predated Ford's Ranchero and Chevrolet's El Camino by around 20 years.

The Studebaker Coupe Express is a passenger car based coupe utility, produced by the Studebaker Corporation of South Bend, Indiana, between 1937 and 1939. Featuring an automobile styled cab and flared rear fenders right off the Studebaker Dictator, it was sold both with a manufacturer supplied pick up style metal bed, and as a rolling chassis and cab to be fitted with a bed or boxes by the purchaser.

The Coupe Express was designed by Raymond Loewy and utilized the Dictator passenger car frame, running gear, and front sheet metal. A new body stamping was made to form the cab back. The model was sold both with a manufacturer supplied metal bed and as a cab and chassis, with the Dictator’s automobile-style sweepingly flared rear fenders attached. A service box, built to specification, would be fabricated by (or for) the end user (such as a plumber or electrician).

The truck was powered by the larger of Studebaker's L-head six-cylinder flathead engines and mated to a 3-speed manual transmission. Studebaker offered a Borg-Warner 3-speed transmission with overdrive as an option. Other options included a radio, heater, wire reinforced sliding back window and turn indicators. Two optional wheels were available, including a stamped steel disc wheel and a stamped steel 'artillery' spoked wheel.

Production for the 1937 model year was approximately 3,000 units.

The truck's passenger cab was restyled in 1938 to reflect the modernized passenger car sheet metal resulted a slightly longer pickup bed. Production for 1938 was approximately 1,200 units.

The 1939 model was again remodeled to reflect Studebaker's annual design updates. Production was approximately 1,000 units. The Coupe Express model was discontinued after the 1939 model year, and Studebaker did not offer a successor model for 1940.

Studebaker introduced the M-Series pickup truck 1941, while the company used the Coupe Express name in advertising for a time,[citation needed] but no M-Series trucks were ever officially designated as the Coupe Express.

The fact that Studebaker itself labeled it a “coupe” rather than a truck (a very different thing at that time; retained a stylish, even luxurious, interior instead of replacing it with a more utilitarian one; and never named or officially referred to any of its actual pickup trucks with the terms “coupe“ or “express“, further distance it from being labeled as one.

Weekend #3 of the Virginia Scenic Railway's "Summer of Steam" shows the Norfolk & Western 611 Class "J" pulling excursions between Louisa and Gordonsville, a modest 15-mile one-way trip. With the short trips and level grade, opportunities for "dramatic" shots were limited. The one exception to this was the departures from Louisa. Seen here, the 4pm trip on Saturday puts on a nice display of sight and sound as it passes a local cemetery.

Korail Class 8200 by Gabriel Paladino Ibáñez

63 1

The Korail Class 8200, based on the Siemens EuroSprinter ES 64 F platform and built by Hyundai Rotem between 2002 and 2008, is a Bo′Bo′ electric locomotive. It delivers 5 200 kW of power and runs at a maximum service speed of 150 km/h (theoretically capable of 220 km/h if re-geared).

Introduced to replace the older EL 8100 units, it hauls medium-distance passenger services—especially third-tier Mugunghwa-ho trains—on fully electrified routes such as Gyeongbu, Honam, Jungang, Taebaek and Yeongdong. Equipped with Head-End Power (HEP), each unit can feed up to 12 passenger cars without extra generators.

For regional and intercity duties, it uses four 1 300 kW traction motors, electronically controlled air and regenerative brakes, and on-board ATS/ATP safety systems. When a train formation exceeds five cars, a dedicated dynamo car is sometimes coupled to guarantee auxiliary power for lighting, HVAC and other systems. Across its production run of 83 units (8201–8283), the Class 8200 remains a workhorse on Korea’s electrified mainlines, underpinning the “slow-train” Mugunghwa-ho service.
