A South Western Railway service arrives in platform 6 at it's Waterloo destination, spot on time 57 minutes after setting off from Dorking at 07.30. On the right hand side in platform 7, an eight coach formation of class 158 and 159 units will form the 08.50 departure to Salisbury.
The arrival from Dorking is formed of a class 701 Arterio unit, which are gradually entering service with SWR a few years later than originally planned due a combination of reasons. The wikipedia link below gives more detailed information.

The Class 380 Desiro is a type of electric multiple-unit train that operates on the national railway network in Scotland.
The Siemens "Desiro UK" family also includes units of 185, 350, 360, 444 and 450.
The trains operate Abellio ScotRail services in the Ayrshire and Inverclyde region of Scotland and had originally been intended for the cancelled Glasgow Airport Rail Link. The construction was awarded to Siemens and announced by Transport Scotland on 11 July 2008.
A total of 38 sets were ordered, comprising 22 three-car and 16 four-car units. Stations along the Ayrshire Coast Line and Inverclyde Line underwent platform extension works to allow the use of the longer trains. The trains were specified to have full access for disabled people and to have streamlined end corridor connections. On the unveiling of the first completed vehicle, it was announced that the fleet would be divided into two sub-groups, with the 3-car units Class 380/0 and the 4-car as Class 380/1.
In September 2010, commissioning of the fleet was suspended by ScotRail due to technical issues with the trains. The reliability issues and extended commissioning period resulted in an initially reduced service on parts of the ScotRail network, including the newly re-opened Airdrie-Bathgate line.
The fleet is based at Glasgow Shields Road TMD. Introduction of the fleet resulted in the cascading of the Class 334 "Juniper" and Class 318 fleet which previously operated the Ayrshire Coast Line and Inverclyde Line. The North Berwick Line operations was a Class 322 fleet replacement. The Class 334 "Juniper" stock were cascaded onto the North Clyde Line to Edinburgh Waverley, the Class 318s were cascaded onto the Argyle Line, and Class 322 cascaded onto the Wakefield Line with Northern Rail.
The fleet was introduced into public service on 8 December 2010 with 380111 operated the 16:26 from Paisley Gilmour Street to Ayr, followed on 9 December 2010 by 380102 and 380001 which worked the 15:30 Glasgow Central to Ayr service.
The North Berwick Line has been using these trains since 2011.
From 21 November 2012, the Class 380 are also seen operating the Paisley Canal Line. Electrification of the section of line from Corkerhill to Paisley Canal, to a plan devised by a ScotRail and Network Rail alliance, began in July 2012 and was completed in November 2012. The electrification works were undertaken during night time and weekend possessions, resulting in the route closing after 8pm on Monday to Thursday evenings, all day on Saturdays, and for an eight-day period in October, with work starting on 29 September 2012 and intending to be completed by 8 November 2012. Class 314 and Class 380 "Desiro" electric multiple units supplemented the existing Class 156 "Super Sprinter" diesel multiple units from energisation of the wires in November 2012. From the timetable change in December 2012, the Class 156 "Super Sprinter" were moved to other routes.
Following the December 2014 timetable change, with the electrification of the Whifflet Line, services to Lanark were re-routed into Glasgow Central High Level. Alongside the usual Class 318's and Class 320's, the Class 380s have often been used on the route.
Class 380s were due to operate some services on the newly electrified line between Glasgow Queen Street and Edinburgh Waverley via Falkirk, but this has yet to commence amid suggestions that the electrification of the line was running 6 months late.
The Class 175 Coradia 1000 units are the stalwart passenger services operated by TfW on the Welsh Marches line. In this scene a two-coach unit passes through Llanvihangel working the 1W52 Milford Haven to Manchester Piccadilly service.

The K-class battleships also known as "Skryabin's Hammers", are a class of battleships begun by the Tongorian Union in the early1920s. However, it is highly questioned by generals if the industry is ready for such high cost projects.
Shown here is the K70, the biggest in the series, making its own class, the über-battleship with her estimated weight of 85,000 tons. The main armament would be eight 22" cannons, the biggest ever mounted on a ship (Tongoria already has that title with The Divine's 18" guns). Such firepower would be probably never needed, unless similar über-battleships show up, but that is doubted.
Her secondary armament is just as dangerous, as the K70 posesses eight 8" guns in single turrets and 26x 150mm guns in casemates.
The AA weaponry was designed with the increasing number of carriers in mind in the world. Against high altitude aircrafts the six 84mm guns can protect the ship and if they planes survive that and get closer, two quad 40mm turrets and another two twin 25mm turrets can make short work of them.
4th wall: I might revisit this design later as I have some parts I want to modify on the build, until then, this shall do.

37800 (0V67) Newport Docks (Sims Group) to Worcester Terminal Complex light engine movement passes through Norton Village towards Worcester to act as a Thunderbird for some unit test runs in and out of Long Marston.
I can't believe it was just over forty years ago when I was working at Waterloo, and took a lunchtime trip to Clapham Junction to travel on one of the brand new British Rail class 455 units in the then standard blue and grey livery.
Now in the twilight of their years, South Western Railway unit 455 568 has emerged in a retro version of that livery, albeit with full grey doors to meet modern requirements.
Here the latest 'celebrity' unit sits at the buffers in platform 3 at Waterloo, having arrived with the 05.25 service from Guildford via Epsom. Internally the unit is the same as all other 455s, but the external colours provide a blast back to the 1980s when I first saw these units enter public service on the former Central and South Western Divisions of the old Southern Region.

"All other ships, head for that opening."
I have not actually seen Wrath of Khan (blasphemy, I know) so this model is based on the Miranda Class refits in DS9. Like always, to the same scale as the Enterprise set (and now to the Defiant as well).
I saw somewhere that the 1x1 plate with handle was released in light bley in a limited edition Jurassic World set. Can anyone confirm?
