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. King Bridei III was leader of the Pictish army.
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 on horseback or the dead warrior on the ground. Two Anglo Saxons are shown having lost their shields.
The Picts appear to have no helmets. The Pictish horsemen appear to have stirrups so that they can hold a spear and a shield unlike the Anglo Saxons.
The Pictish stategy appears to be three ranks. The first soldier has a sword for close combat, protected with a spear carried by the soldier behind. A third spearman is in reserve.
The stone slab is believed to have been produced two to three centuries after the battle.
The Aberlemno 3, class II Pictish symbol stone, also called the Great Stone. The ornate Celtic cross is impressive with two angels either side, one reading a book.
A hunting scene and the double disc Pictish symbol is visible on the opposite face which is not visible from the roadside. Three trumpeters are also visible.
The meaning of these symbols commonly carved by the Picts is unknown.
Strangely the missionaries or scribes from the Celtic church did not record the meaning of the symbols in their texts. This was even more strange as Celtic christian crosses were engraved on one side of the class II symbol stones or cross slabs.

With so much steam leakage it's a wonder the crew could see where they were going, certainly the fireman seems to be peering through the gloom!

Christmas is a-coming and the goose is getting fat. Which means it will soon be time for the GC's Santa Specials again. A mere 10 years ago Ivatt Class 2 2-6-4T 41312 prepares to leave Loughborough with just such a train.
41312 was visiting from the Mid-Hants Railway at the time. I was still a cleaner then but I got a real Christmas treat in the shape of 2 footplate rides, the first on 75014 and the second on this fine engine.

Lady Victoria was always a good student at college. Paying attention in class and taking copious notes help in studying for exams.
More information given by Emile Badawy in comment below:
"It is actually Sandringham station, and the train is bound for Flinders Street station, Melbourne. The little E class 2-4-2 tank engine was built specifically for this type of work, and they did not often venture away from the metropolis."
A 'Class II Pictish Symbol Stone', standing in the grounds/ruin of Elgin Cathedral, Elgin. This stone was ploughed up by a farmer in 1894. This side (the back) of the stone has a 'double disk and Z-rod' above a 'crescent and V-rod' symbol. Below there two symbols is a hunting scene, including hunters on horses, birds of prey (including one on the on arm of the party leader), hounds, and deer.

This locomotive was originally preserved at the Severn Valley Railway and was the star of BBC TV Drama series 'Oh Doctor Beeching!' when it was named 'Blossom'. She hauled three carmine and cream Mark 1 carriages over Victoria Bridge and into/out of Arley Station, which itself was renamed 'Hatley'.

46443 was built at BR’s Crewe works in April 1950 and was based at Derby for 11 years. In 1961, 46443 moved to Saltley, where duties were limited to infrequent rush hour journeys. A final move to Newton Heath (near Manchester) in 1966 was followed by withdrawal in March 1967.
It was then preserved and is resident on the Severn Valley Railway. It is now on display in The Engine House awaiting its next overhaul, following withdrawal from service, whilst in preservation, in October 2011.
In July 1987, 46443 was asked to replace Class 4MT 75069 on the BR Cardigan Bay Express service in North Wales and despite initial misgivings it performed well in that role. This picture records that time.
