B.R.(S.R.) Standard Mk.I Class "4-REP" (later Class "430") 750 v dc 3rd rail 4-car inter-city e.m.u. No.3006 in BR blue livery and small yellow warning panel entering Waterloo on a service from Weymouth, 07/67. Note aluminium BR double-arrow logo - a quality detail. Scanned photograph taken with a Kowa SET camera.
A class Dv12 has brought some wagons from the pulp factory nearby, and forming the late night freight train begins. As the red locomotive is shunting the trucks to their rightful tracks, the action down there can be recognised as the top of the locomotive is dirty.
Two Class 47s side-by-side on 5 November 1972. On the ballast is 1835 (later 47354), still in green. Alongside is 1957 - one of the few delivered in blue. A Class 117 DMU is in the platform.
PKP 3,000 V DC overhead Class EU07 2,680 hp Bo-Bo No.EU07-304 (with ribbed sides and LED lights in new rectangular surrounds) in PKP Intercity blue & grey livery at Poznan Glowny, 20 November 2017. In the late 1950's the PKP wanted an advanced electric locomotive and bought 20 EU06 mixed traffic locomotives built by English Electric's Vulcan Foundry in 1962-65 which were a DC export version of the AC British Railways Class 83. PKP then procured Polish built versions of the EU06 - 488 EU07's built by Pafawag and Cegielski in 1963-1994 and 200 5,400 hp duplex ET21 heavy freight and coal Bo-Bo+Bo-Bo units (two EU07's joined together) built by Cegielski in 1977-83. In 1995-2003 ZNTK modified 97 EU07 locos to express passenger EP07 locos. The 15 EP08 locos built by Pafawag in 1972-76 were newbuild express passenger versions of EU07's. The final development of the type is the 3,916 hp EP09 Class, 47 being built by Pafawag in 1986-97. The class, with a revised body, was intended to be a completely new state-of-the-art design but a shortage of funds led to the adoption of many features from the EP07/08's. However, the mixture of new and old technology was not a happy one and many subsequent modifications had to be made.
Wore this under my red coat, but I didn't really take the coat off much...
I felt very 80s in this...

The Nickel-class corvette is the smallest ship in the Federal Navy. Casian Dockyards designed and built these ships when asked by the Naval Procurement Board for a cheap patrol airship. The Nickel is named so because they cost about as much to build. They are incredibly simple to build and maintain. They are very fast, but are restricted to calm-weather conditions because of their size.
All versions of the Nickel class have a deck gun mounted frontally, but some versions also have aerial torpedo launchers on the bow to give them a chance against heavier opponents. In recognition that the type is extremely vulnerable, the Nickel class has a high amount of Mechanicum gear inside, lowering crew requirements.
During the Blighting, they were very useful in evacuating refugees and military personnel. However, during the Great Scouring, they suffered horrendous losses, mostly to Feral Behemoths. The few that were left were barely reinforced by replacements when the Continental War started, leading to further losses. The enormous casualty figures lead to a change in policy as to the use of the Nickel-class corvettes. Subsequently, they were never to be used in a frontline combat role and wold instead be relegated to patrol and policing duties.
Although some were sold to foreign nations and the type has seen some success outside of the Federal Republic of Casia, it is not generally considered a very good ship. If the best one can say of a ship is how fast it can run away from trouble, maybe it shouldn't be looking for trouble in the first place.
The Casian Dockyards are just barely kept afloat by orders of this ship, but they need to quickly design a newer, better ship if they are to succeed in the cutthroat world of airship building.

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.
The Illinua-class battleships were the most advanced of their kind in the Vinnish navy around the turn of the century. They were some of the first to feature the new turret design, and had formidable armor and armament. They had a main battery of four 13in guns, a secondary battery of eight 7in guns, and then sixteen 6in guns and eight 4in guns. They were not without their problems, of course: with 16.5 inches of armor and such a large array of weapons, the ship was very heavy for her small frame, and tended to sag a bit lower than intended. The extra weight also caused some steering issues, and limited her to having only a few torpedo tubes. A bit slower than her contemporaries, the Illinuas nevertheless became known as some of the most reliable and effective ships of their time, some of these vessels would serve an extraordinarily long time, being modernized in the dreadnought era and then again in the 1930's to serve as training and bombardment ships.
