Ruth's Career as a Flight Attendant – Happy Highlights –
The time has come for me to say a certain good-bye. I have decided to accept a Voluntary Early Out Program (VEOP) of the world's largest airline – saving another flight attendant from being cut involuntarily due to the corona virus pandemic – since our Company doesn't need 80% of us now. Upon leaving September 27, 2021, once exited, I turn into a retiree with full retirement benefits. So I worked my last trip March 1-4, 2020, not knowing – the Lord knew – it'd be my last, and very good.
My first flight to Germany, when I was a child, took 2 days, on a Constellation propeller aircraft in 1960 transporting military families like ours, hugging coastlines and stopping every so often along the way to refuel. Four years later, ending my father's tour of duty, I flew back to America on a jet airliner.
In working flights from the early 90's into 2020 I encountered unexpected joys, exceptionally difficult people, and potentially deadly situations; however, on 1 flight a passenger came to the jetbridge boarding door I was working on his hands... because he had no legs; he had to walk into the restroom on his hands, then ate his meals with those same hands. I said to myself that I wouldn't complain about anything ever again.
Never did any flight I was working on cancel; however, during one month of 4 transatlantic Frankfurt trips, the flight from the day before on 3 of my 4 return flights cancelled: we carried their relaxed, rested return (deadheading) crew, who had an extra full day in Germany to enjoy doing whatever they wanted to do, back over the ocean, working the totally filled flights while they sat, ate, and slept in passenger seats, 100% full airplane each time! I wished I also could have had an extra day, too, at least once!
In a quarter century I flew Germany about 1,000 times as Speaker (making the airplane announcements in German), usually once, sometimes twice, occasionally 3 times in a week, even worked – assigned as a reserve – 10 transatlantic flights in 15 days, 5 trips back-to-back non-stop; plus worked other international destinations, also 5 years domestic, mostly 3-day but a few 1-, 2-, or 4-day, and 1 prized 5-day trip. I will have accumulated 29½ yrs. seniority from my 20May1992 hire, acquiring lifetime memories, enjoying amazing friendships. This scenic journey down memory lane highlights my working trips of which I have pictures: 1 in 1994; 2 in 2001; 2 in 2010; after buying a smart phone, 252 the next day 11AUG2012 through 04MAR2020. Enjoy this mere 1% of a total of ~70,000 photos and occasional notes on working trips as a crewmember!

Photographed from an excursion train on 19th July 1981 between Rotherham and Aldwarke Jn. is 47341 working wrong line in an engineering possession.
I finally got the decals on this side (and the roof line) finished for Brickvention. I'm over decals...stickers are much easier.
Class 82 82007 was originally E3053, and was one of a batch of 10 Metropolitan Vickers 3300hp electrics, dating from 1960-62. In spite of showing signs of crash damage, when pictured in Crewe Works on September 24th 1977, it survived in service until July 1983, and was eventually scrapped in Leicester in October 1984.
Travis McCoy of Gym Class Heroes sings during his band's performance at The Pub in Harrisonburg, Va, during the hip-hop showcase for MACRoCk. MACRoCk is the Mid-Atlantic College Radio Conference that began ten years ago as an opportunity for independent groups to perform alongside more recognized ones. Now, MACRoCk has grown to be a nationally recognized weekend dedicated to college radio and independent music. This year's MACRoCk featured acts such as The Walkmen, The Wrens, and William Elliot Whitmore.
The interior of London Northwestern unit 319005 on 26th May 2021. This must be one of the very few units on the network that still retains Network South East Edward Pond Murals. DTS vehicle 77298 features Somerset House and the Tower of London.
After a day working in the pit under D335 I took the opportunity to get an atmospheric evening shot of her
Lol today’s sewing class was mostly me trying to make a male coat pattern but FAILING terribly so there’s only a scant amount of outfits today lol.
I wanted to make a coordinating outfit for my repro TNT Barbie cuz I loved the colours of the Fox print fabric but didn’t want to use the same print for both of them so I used this orange print with light blue cotton lol.
I’ve also been meaning to make a pair of floral overalls and made a cruddy looking singlet to go with it but eh, I love the overall look (lame pun intended).
I also had BARELY enough of the green shimmery fabric leftover from the cape to make a sheath dress for my Fashion Queen. I really like it on her since it’s a bit more subdued but really nice too. I absolutely hated the satin lining that came with this fabric (since it was originally a vest that had been harvested) so unfortunately I couldn’t make a matching jacket for her but I feel the gloves work well.
While I liked Sea Adventurer’s official GI Joe clothes I wanted something similar to his original blue outfit so I made adjustments to my Ken shirt pattern and made him a new outfit that’s a bit of a twist on his Sea Adventurer clothing.
Also I realised it just makes him look even more like Bob Ross….
DB Class 01.10 4-6-2 01 1075. Further smart driving by my mate got us far enough ahead to park up and shoot 01 1075 as it approaches Serrig.

Yet to be named Class 47 47461 (formerly D1581) speeds towards Leeds on a November evening.
The engine went on to be named Charles Rennie Mackintosh when it transferred to the Scottish Region and was unique in carrying InterCity livery and then ScotRail blue livery, the only 47/4 to do so

GWR Class 166 No.166217 heads towards Pot Lane,with the 10:41 Bristol Temple Meads to Weymouth service,on the 16th of November 2021.
A Class 37, which seems to be 6703, and a Class 47 (1578 is a possibility from what I can make out).
The pre-TOPs numbers suggest early 1970s.
The location is Sunderland Bridge, a few miles south of Durham. As far as I can tell 1S14 was the 1300 Kings Cross-Edinburgh service.
