Appareil subminiature (52 x 33 x 35 mm, 50 g sans film) courant en France.
Fixfocus, obturateur avec pose et instantané. Utilise un film de 17,5 mm (35 mm coupé en deux dans le sens de la longueur) pour des vues de 14x14 mm.
Le site submin.com est le seul à présenter cet appareil : class 2, white name plaque, script, black, avec les caractéristiques : finish/colour : chrome, black leatherette, white name plate script letters, lens fixed, shutter : I and B, aperture fixed, film door lock : snap to shut, case stamped "HIT" in script font on the front
le sac de mon exemplaire, avec fond et dessus collés et non cousus n'est présenté nulle part. La mention "snap to shut" du site Submin est erronée, et d'ailleurs en contradiction avec la photo présentée, où l'on voit bien la "sliding bar".
Packs of girls -- usually 4 or 5 in number and often with one of them the obvious leader -- patrolled the track around the football field. Many were constantly on their cell phones and seemed more made up for a party -- eye liner, eye shadow, etc. -- than a Thanksgiving Day, 10-o'clock-in-the-morning football game.
Melrose (in red) hosted Wakefield (in grey) and won, 15-14, beating Wakefield for the first time in 15 years. The win also gives Melrose the Middlesex League championship and a berth in the Eastern Massachusetts Class 2 playoffs.

LMS Stanier 'Black Five' 4-6-0 44851 (Crewe/1944) and a BR Standard class 2 2-6-0, probably 78020, being shunted by an 0-6-0 diesel shunter at Derby shed. 44851 allocated to Burton shed (17B).
Thanks to Keith Turbutt for correctly identifying the 4-6-0 and for finding the evidence about 78020.

The other engine in steam this weekend was Great Northern N2 0-6-2T 1744 and in this view - from Ivatt Class 2 2MT 2-6-0 46521 - she is drawing forward to take water at the tower prior to pulling the first train of the day.
British Railways-built Ivatt Class 2 No. 46447 heads a demonstration freight on the East Somerset Railway near Mendip Vale during a Martin Creese photographic charter on 1st March 2015. The locomotive was built at Crewe in 1950 and had an operating life of 17 years, being withdrawn in December 1966, and sold to Woodhams at Barry. Although regarded as in generally a poor state of repair it was acquired by the Ivatt Locomotive Trust in 1972 and moved to the Buckingham Railway Museum at Quainton Road. A further move to the Isle of Wight Steam Railway took place in 2008, when the trust consolidated it's fleet on the island. Crucially, in 2012 a deal was struck with the East Somerset Railway (ESR) to transfer No. 46447 to Cranmore in exchange for Southern Railway Class E1 0-6-0T No. 110. The arrangement was the ESR to restore the Ivatt, which was completed in two years and on 26th October 2014 No. 46447 hauled a train for the first time in 48 years. It is understood that the arrangement is that the Ivatt Class 2 will remain on the ESR for 10 years. Copyright John Whitehouse - all rights reserved
BR Standard Class 2 2-6-0 No. 78019 and former LNER Class O4 2-8-0 No. 63601 at Loughborough shed on 6th October 2011
78019 was built at Darlington in 1954 and initially allocated to Kirkby Stephen. After a mere 12 years in service it was withdrawn from Crewe South in November 1966. 63601 was built by the Great Central Railway at their Gorton works and put into service in January 1912. It was withdrawn from Frodingham shed in June 1963 after an operating life of 51 years.

A scene not to distant from the Railway Children, Ex LMS Ivatt 2 Tank 41241 arrives at Oakworth station
When the Walden's Ridge Railroad acquired FA2 #605, they saved a treasure. This age old Alco began it's life on the L&N as #310 in June of 1956 and served the system wholeheartedly until it changed hands to the Long Island Railroad and wore several other paint schemes under the new ownership. The scheme it now rusts in was painted in the early 90's, yet nothing will ever beat the glorious black and cream of the L&N. One can only hope it may one day carry the blessed scheme again, though let us be thankful that this thing still exists.

Hasland based Ivatt class 2 2-6-0 No. 46500 stands at the platform in Derby (Midland) station with an early evening stopping train to Chesterfield. May 1958.
Gleaming Ivatt Class2 No.46512 is pictured approaching Broomhill with the last train of the day from Aviemore on the Strathspey Railway.
The sun was out and now there was plenty of light for this shot of the brand newly restored cab & controls of Ivatt Class 2 2MT 2-6-0 46521 while we were waiting in the station at Loughborough for the Datex participants. All four gauges are stamped with SVR, an indication of the loco's former owners at the Severn Valley Railway. Note the 4-handled whistle control at the top. Very impressive!
Being fresh out of the works the safety valves blow off dead on the 200psi red line but we already had 185psi in the boiler with 30 more minutes still to wait. Potentially embarassing but actually there was less than half a glass of water so I had plenty of spare to control any overpressure.
As diesel power continued to thrive, the L&N continued to invest in motive power for their system. In 1965, they purchased 22 new EMD SD35's for service, former L&N 1216 seen here in the Oak Ridge deadlines. The 1216 made it into the early years of CSX before being sold off to the Minnesota Valley Railroad, changing hands another handful of times before finding its way to the SARM safe haven. I love the amount of former L&N units preserved here and I hope to see them back in service one day.

The stone offers a large Christian Cross next to the roadside. Possibly once ornate coloured this elaborately carved stone has been a great decoration along this route for around one thousand years. On the side of the stone facing away from the road there is superb hunting scene. The carvings overall are assigned to a Pictish style and the stone is thought by many to be carved at the time of the Picts taking on Christianity as their religion. The move from Pagan to Christian iconography is easily seen in the Cross decoration. The working of the Cross and the style of the figures on the reverse indicates this was the Picts carving the stone. The stone may have once held Pictish Symbols on both sides and the Cross may have been used to cover one face and to purify the other. Easter Ross in northern Scotland, notable

Aberlemno 3 like all of the stones at Aberlemno is the an amazing stone monument. The stone beautifully embraces the symbols inscribed by the Picts. The stone as seen from the roadside is a superb emblematic enigma. The symbols have historians, archaeologist and many interested parties proposing possible interpretations of the many Pictish Stones that have been found in Scotland. The Picts left no written accounts and the symbols need to be seen with a Pictish mind-scape, a glimpse into what the symbols meant for them. Whilst the debate continues the stones still attract much attention, they a beautiful and there human artistic sculpting definitely talks to the human consciousness. The contemporary voice from and with the stones gives ideas of raising a commemorative monument for a grave, boundary or ritual marker.

Aberlemno 3 is classified under the J Romilly Allen and Joseph Anderson's survey as a Class II stone.
Pictish stone - Classification
Class I — unworked stones with symbols only incised. There is no cross on either side. Class I stones date back to the 6th, 7th and 8th century.
Class II — stones of more or less rectangular shape with a large cross and symbol(s) on one or both sides. The symbols, as well as Christian motifs, are carved in relief and the cross with its surroundings is filled with designs. Class II stones date from the 8th and 9th century.
Class III — these stones feature no idiomatic Pictish symbols. The stones can be cross-slabs, recumbent gravemarkers, free-standing crosses, and composite stone shrines. They originate in the 8th or 9th century. Historic Scotland describes this class as "too simplistic" and says "Nowadays this is not considered a useful category. A surviving fragment may belong to a monument that did include Christian imagery".

Aberlemno Sculptured Stones
Woodham's scrayard in 1968 played host to more than 210 withdrawn steam locomotives including LMS Ivatt Class 2 2-6-2T 41313. This shot was taken from the tank top of Jinty 0-6-0T 47324.
Built at the LMS Crewe works but in 1952 by which time it had been nationalised and was in British Railways ownership. After only 13 years service it was withdrawn from Eastleigh in 1965 and entered Woodham's in 1966. Preservation came in 1975 but it has never steamed since and currently awaits overhaul at the Isle of Wight Railway.

The Aberlemno 2, class II Pictish symbol stone.
A battle scene on the opposite face is believed to depict the Battle of Dunnichen, also called the Battle of Nechtansmere in 685 A.D.
The helmeted soldiers are believed to be the Anglo Saxons from Northumbria who were defeated outright and lost their lands north of Northumbria such as Fife.
A raven is drawn feeding on a dead Anglo Saxon. The Anglo Saxon King Edwin of Deira may be depicted in this battle scene. Two Anglo Saxons are shown having lost their shields.
The stone slab is believed to have been produced two to three centuries after the battle.

Loughborough Standard Locomotive Group are currently in the final stages of the renovation of Ivatt 2 2-6-0 46521 in Loughborough shed. Last week the boiler was lifted into the frames and the engine is looking complete once again. The LMS Ivatt 2 was the basis for the later British Railways Standard 2 78xxx Class. 78019 is also cared for by the LSLG.
Seen behind the Ivatt, Standard 5 4-6-0 73156 is another loco in their care. It is also moving nicely along the restoration process.
