The last open day I attended in Derby was in September 1989 and I recall entering Derby Works here at the clock tower to find a Midland loco on display in the roundhouse behind.
Both roundhouse and clock tower survive, though sadly no longer in railway use and the site of Derby Works, like so many of our workshops, is now an industrial estate.
Taken when this fixture of Strand beachfront was still in good repair. It was later neglected and fell into disrepair. But recently a group of private citizens got together to refurbish it. The broken clock was replaced with a digital one and the tower was freshly painted.
The four-faced clock in the Main Concourse at the center of Grand Central sits atop the main information booth. This is a perennial meeting place, and this clock is perhaps the most recognizable icon of Grand Central. Each of the four clock faces is made from opal, and Sotheby's and Christie's have estimated the value to be between $10 million and $20 million.
Supposedly the wisest of birds, this astute little owl found its perch only recently, though the Seth Thomas clock has been in the family since 1864. The bird's presence in this spot is a good reminder since wisdom takes time to acquire. My great grandfather bought the clock when he was seeing military service at Ft. Vancouver, WA, in that year - a pretty wise purchase for a lad of 19, I think. The statuette was cast in India, so I hope it brings me some of the wisdom of the sub-continent. The clock was in my grandmother's possession during my childhood. Then it went to my parents, and now, just this last week, it has come into my care. It's a treasured item and brings many memories.

In addition to showing the hours, the astrolabe dial of this clock was made to indicate the apparent motions of 23 stars in the northern hemisphere, the position of the sun and the moon in the zodiac, and the age and phase of the moon in its monthly cycle. The recessed ring encircling the chapter of hours gives the day of the year, saint's days, and other calendrical information for the period beginning in 1570 and ending in 1610.

So I am asked, "What's the picture of the clock for? Are you creating some sort of documentary of your life?" My response, "Yeah, something like that I suppose." Sheesh, I always thought I was just a simple camera nut, the question got me thinking, "just what is the goal here?"
