Mt. Washington Cog Railroad #9 pushes its coach up New England's tallest peak on gorgeous New Hampshire Fall day.
Cog or Kogge
A cog is a type of ship that first appeared in the 10th century, and was widely used from around the 12th century on. Eventually, around the 14th century, the cog reached its structural limits. This model is a somewhat generic version of this ship. However, some features narrows it down to being from around 1300, +-50 years.
The ship type was a northern European brake from the sleek Viking ship. The need for spacious and relatively inexpensive ships led to the development of this trader workhorse. Fore and stern castles would be added for defense against pirates, or to enable use of these vessels as warships.
It is in minifig-scale or 1:40’ish.
The model will have the dimensions Length: 68 cm, Height: 75 cm (with stand), Width: 19 cm (Beam)
There is approx. 4300 bricks in the model.
This is the second tram I took today, from the highest peak of Mount Rigi (Kulm) to the valley town Arth-Goldau.
The first tram I took parks on the right, and goes to Vitznau on Lake Lucerne.

“Stern accuracy in inquiring, bold imagination in describing, these are the cogs on which history soars or flutters and wobbles.”

This is an old picture from some years back taken with my point & Shoot Camera. We were not expecting snow in September, but was amazing... I wish I had my D7000 back then :)
Cogs of industry.
In the early 1870's The Inveresk Railway Workshops, Launceston began work servicing steam locomotives and rolling stock.
At that point in time a railway line was in operation from Launceston to Deloraine.
The workshops were involved of every aspect associated with the maintenance and building of carriages and wagons.
The workshops remained in full operation until 1994 when the decision was made to close the facility in favour of a new facility at Newstead.
As you step inside the now defunct workshops you immediately get the overwhelming sense that all the workers have downed tools and have taken a much deserved break.
That impression is in fact the situation as the workers did lay down their tools and walked out of the workshops on its final day of operation.
Fortunately it has never been gutted or has any material been removed, it remains locked in time on that day in 1994 when the last shift whistle sounded.
The workshops now house the Queen Victoria Museum and Art Gallery, the University of Tasmania School of Visual and Performing Arts and the Royal Launceston Show Society.

The original Cog was part of the 1987 Fortress Maximus set and this 2018 update, a fine figure on its own, has been described as DLC for the recent Generations Fortress Maximus. To lend credence to that, the new Cog's guns bear a strong resemblance to the original Cerebros gun and were probably meant for Generations Cerebros.
Given the plethora of pegs and ports on Siege Cog and the way it can be dismembered, however, it's plain the figure was designed primarily as an accessory set for other figures. Once disassembled, Cog's parts do indeed function as stylish accoutrements for the discerning Autobot warrior. While platform shoes might seem a questionable fashion choice for the battlefield, this type of fighting footwear was once in vogue in Japan. (See God Ginrai, Victory Saber, Super Fire Convoy, etc.)
The Cybertronian Omnifunctional Modular Battlefield Assault Tech System is clearly Hasbro's studious attempt to avoid saying "Takara's 5mm joint system" but marketing dissembling aside, this makes Siege figures compatible with 5mm parts going back four decades. This includes non-Transformers Takara SF Land classics like Henshin Cyborg, Microman, Diaclone and Blockman so you could grab some wings from a three-decade-old Blockman set, attach the 5mm pegs on the parts to the 5mm ports on Sideswipe to turn him into a flying car. "How droll," you say? Well, the sky's the limit when it comes to 5mm connectivity.
There are, as always, minor quibbles. The pegs on the Cerebros guns are a tad small for Cog's fists, moving the figure's slightly-loose legs at the too-tight hips might end up dislodging the legs and the "battle damage" is less suggestive of a mortal struggle with a Decepticon than an unfortunate encounter with a soused artist going Jackson Pollock with silver paint.
Siege as a whole, however, is shaping up to be a sensational line by Hasbro and Takara Tomy. Who could have foreseen the designers would be attempting a tetrajet Seeker 35 years later? Who would have guessed the Soundwave figure would include an easter egg based on a feature with only a few seconds of screen time?
It only goes to show you don't always have to discard old ideas; you just need to understand why they worked then, update them to meet raised expectations and restate the case for them today.

The Cog is Starfall Enterprises basic soldier frame. Build from the ground up to support the incorporation A.I. The frame is easy to maintain and versatile. It is able to be equipped with numerous different load outs. Starfall makes quite a hefty sum off of the royalties for these things. Which are deployed through explored space.
Made for Mobile Frame Zero.

I am surprised that Eddie the slug has any arms left after the twisting to get him down to the Colorado RailRoad Museum in Golden, Colorado. I figured we could hit the Christmas steam up over at the Colorado Rail Road Museum in Golden, As it worked, the staff said Sunday would be more sane, barely any more. Everyone at the place got three loops. Only those with sharp elbows got the rides in the cupola in the caboose or the cab. They also do railroad modeling over here but they prefer modeling at a 12 inches to the foot scale. Area and other fans ought to make the trek; take your camera, empty and ready to go! I had to call out all the turns on I-25 and I-70 to get to the place. He started to believe we might be on the right route when he spotted the first CRRM highway signs. He assumed we were there when I pointed out Coors but I suggested Coors was at least 5 miles long. You'd have thought I would not have to call out the route home but I did. I think I could call Eddie "Old Cog Bottom."
As fate would have it Eddie held off until the annual Christmas steam up but I afforded him some extra time on the drive down and we arrived before the Museum opened. Fortunately, we spotted #346 steaming up at the new engine house and snuck in like we was impotant folk. I had to work hard to get Eddie in cheap even he tried not too. The guest book is a log of all nations in the world. Some arrive with pencils, sketchbooks and tape measures.
After ogling #346 at the engine house turntable, Eddie and I made our way to the Richardson station to actually pay to get in even though we already were. I passed the old Manitou & Pikes Peak cog road steam engine.and decided to take a snap; I never fully loaded the card with shots anyway. The old engine has had home at the CRRM for a long time, perhaps it looks like it. The builder's plate relates it's a Baldwin saddle tanker built apparently in 1883 and is 700 days newer then #346. It is at least a curious critter. Note the high and low pressure tandem cylinders and action reversing lever that operate the drivers. It must have looked funny trying to ascent the cog rail. It's squat appearance is due to the water tank that saddles the boiler and has a come-along coal bin instead of tender. It's a wonder it carried enough to ascent Pikes Peak.
