A photo of our wall clock taken a few years ago taken with 35mm B&W film in an old Pentax Z-10 camera.
Don't watch the clock;
do what it does.
Keep going.

Sorry about all the dandelion shots ... lockdown means still lifes, or garden shots, or ... still lifes in the garden!!! Yesterday, I was experimenting with different manual focus lenses ... hence all the dandelion shots.

The story of Prague's Astronomical Clock (Orloj) is a mix of historical marvel and legendary curse.
The creator, Mikuláš of Kadaň (or Master Hanuš), was blinded by jealous city councilors to prevent him from building another masterpiece.
This lead him to sabotage the clock and curse it, causing anyone who tried to repair it to go mad or die.
The clock itself, working since 1410, is a complex medieval device showing time, astronomical positions, and zodiac signs, featuring moving figures of the Apostles and allegorical statues like Death (the Skeleton), Vanity, and Greed, which come alive hourly.
It was fun to see and hear.

I guess it is necessary to be able to tell the time while you are riding around your estate on your sit-on mower?
I was out near the White Rock pier this afternoon. I didn't realize that they had a free-standing clock there...

The famous “Binns Clock” on the corner of Princes Street and Hope Street in Edinburgh has been restored. The building used to be occupied by the department store Binns which was taken over by House of Fraser in 1953. The clock was installed in 1960 and was an iconic meeting place. The Frasers store closed in 2018 and the building is currently being converted into the Johnnie Walker Experience. The clock restoration work was carried out by the Cumbria Clock Company who also repaired the musical mechanism which plays traditional Scottish tunes every half an hour as the kilted figures march out of the clock. In keeping with tradition, the Highland figures will emerge to the musical accompaniment every seven and 37 minutes past the hour.

Alas, the Short Line DOES still use run thru power off of the NS quite a bit. One could complain, but it just makes the railroad all the more cooler to me.
Such is the case here. The railroad has spent the entirety of Friday night into early Saturday morning loading this 60C (which only came in the prior evening, mind you) and managed to load 85 gondolas with slabs. They've finally got their train properly air tested and are seen in the process of delivering the train to the NS, who will take these slabs to the AM/NS Calvert facility in Alabama. Yes, this is in fact a Short Line crew onboard the train, just using NS power on an NS train on NS trackage.
The train is framed by the very intricate plant at CP 503, better known as Hick Tower. The tower itself is to the right of the train, and is still manned to this day to control the pictured drawbridge to balance the extremely heavy rail traffic with the heavier-than-one-would-expect marine traffic on the Indiana Harbor Canal. The two bridges to the far left have been in this position for years and years, evidenced by no existing track to lead to, though I couldn't give much history of either. And finally, bordered on top by yet another piece of heavy steel, but I couldn't tell you what purpose it serves. Perhaps one of YOU can!
Finally, distant observers will notice the train veering off to the right and out of frame not far beyond the bridge. This is the train swinging off home rails - kind of. Again, what could be considered the Short Line's "Main" is just the leased Lake Subdivision from CSX. The Lake Sub was once the B&O's high speed passenger route into Chicago, but these days follows a 25mph maximum timetable speed, with the SCIH guys typically not going more than 15. How the mighty have fallen... but at least we still have something interesting to follow... black and white gevos or not!
