One of my first ever train photos. As a kid we always had all our holidays in the west highlands which usually involved a few days out and about on the type 2s. Not sure which 27 it was or even if we caught this train on this occasion. Happy days.
Also on 9 June 2010, we see 153377 at Falmouth Docks on the 1520 to Truro. This view is no longer possible owing to a new development next to the station.
I struggled with my focus point on this photo, but the train was doing about 80mph. Must try harder next time.
Preserved BR class 07 number 07010 (previously D2994). 14 class 07 locomotives were originally built by Ruston & Hornsby in 1962 for use at Southampton Docks. Thanks to all the staff at the Avon Vally Railway for making it a lovely visit.

On Wednesday 16th December 1987 Class 141 unit 55533/55513 stands at Birmingham New Street on a 5Z25 Bromsgrove to Bromsgrove test train.
The nearest any of the production Pacers got to Birmingham in normal service was Worcester and so this must be a pretty rare event. I didn't know it was running I just happened to be there.
Scan from colour print, not a great shot but worth sharing for the rarity value.

The standard ship of the line for the Jovian Federal Navy, the Recalcitrant is classed as a heavy frigate due to its lower tonnage-to-volume ratio. While it may seem odd for a galactic power to rely on a mere frigate for its military needs, the Recalcitrant is perfectly suited to the odd circumstances of the Federation's navy.
Mistrusted by the Federal Assembly ever since the mutinies of 2161, the naval branch of the Federation's armed forces has had its budget shrink exponentially year by year, and its members subjected to ever stricter regulations. This led to a growing alienation between naval personnel and the average Jovian citizen, who mostly saw sailors as little more than unstrustworthy space-scum. The sailors, meanwhile, were frustrated by the lack of support from the population, who they perceived as lazy hedonists.
The situation deteriorated to such a nadir by 2207 that the Board of Admirals delivered an ultimatum to the Assembly; either fund the Navy or allow the sailors and their families to secede. After an initial panick, during which at least two admirals and several subordinates were hanged, the Assembly quickly realized their position was untenable. They could not leave themselves defenceless, but neither could they bring themselves to fund a navy they so feared.
A compromise was reached. The Navy would not get increased funds, but would hereby be given a level of official autonomy distancing it from government oversight. While satisfying the politicians' desire to keep the Navy weak and underfunded, this would allow the Navy to seek its own means of funding itself. The severing of official ties between naval leadership and governmental bodies was also hoped to shield the Jovian government from any legal or political repercussions by the actions of the Fleet, while also at least partly satisfying the growing calls for independence within this same. It was a masterstroke of inter-governmental diplomacy.
Enter the Recalcitrant frigate. Unable to afford a fleet of cruisers, the Federation commissioned a large number of these frigates from various shipyards around the galaxy. Corranian Dockyards, Forger Industries, and Venus Naval Works are the primary contract holders.
Built as a blockade runner, the Recalcitrant is fast, well armoured and lightly armed. The Federal Navy uses it to run supplies to those who have need of third-party runners, and who can pay, of course. Designed to be modular, the ion-nuclear engines are easily serviced and upgraded thanks to their seperate nacelle placements. This ease of maintenance and constant engine updates has kept the Recalcitrant relevant despite its age.
The FSS Liberté (FH-87) famously brought the equipment for a planetary shield through the blockade around Alta VII. The FSS Citoyen (FH-125) is well known for its spice smuggling runs along the Cuban Nexus. Even the FSS Mitraille (FH-23) has gained renown for its delivery of critically needed medical supplies to Klendathu Prime in 2287 and its succor of the space station Heaven's Rim in the Charlemagne sector.
The Recalcitrant's feats of arms are also impressive. When the RTS Calvin (CL-188) and the RTS Hobbes (CL-189) were ambushed by an ISA task force, it was the FSS Confrère (FH-16) which bought them enough time to escape. In the process, it was credited with inflicting severe damage to the ISAS Right of Way (C-1253), which spent several months in a repair yard.
The Recalcitrant is an excellent example of doing much with little, and has gained the Federal Navy a reputation for efficiency and efficacity out of all proportion to its size.

Ta DA! It's done - except for the elastic - I'm going to do that in a few minutes... I sewed VERY slowly on this top as I realized the unicorns came to about $2 each (ha ha) - I wish I'd stuck to the polka dot for the elastic casings, but they won't show when the elastic is in and the white was a much thinner fabric... so, oh well... Overall, I'm very pleased with this pattern.
