Print description
c1910 view of the Spring Lake Park interurban station. The station was located along the Old National Road (US 40 today) between Greenfield and Indianapolis. I produced this print from a photograph and added the title. The cemetery in the background in this scene is still located south of US 40 and east of Sugar Creek. Smith-Johnson Ditch ran along the south side of the road in this area toward Sugar Creek. That ditch may explain why the station is elevated between the two tracks. The photographer was standing on the south edge of the road and looking east-southeast.
The nearest sign in the shelter informed visitors to SEE THAT YOUR TICKETS ARE STAMPED AT SPRING LAKE PARK _______ THE CAR. The other sign is unclear. The privately owned park was located about half a mile south of this station. Spring Lake is a residential community today.
Trolley car number 30 was in front of the station and car number 45 was behind the station. The name GREENFIELD was printed in large letters on the side of car 45 and the name above the windows appears to include the word RAPID. It is highly likely these cars belonged to the Indianapolis & Greenfield Rapid Transit Company. That company was incorporated in 1899 and operated seven passenger and express cars and a work car on 17 miles of track east of Irvington.¹ A 1903 financial securities publication included the following information about the first phase of interurban railway consolidation between Indianapolis and Richmond.
“Indianapolis & Eastern Railway.—Incorporated under laws in 1902 as a consolidation of the Indianapolis & Greenfield Rapid Transit and the Indianapolis & Eastern Traction Co. Operates about 30 miles of track extending from Knightstown to Irvington, where it connects with the Indianapolis Street Railway, over whose tracks it operates into Indianapolis under a 31 year contract. An extension is being built to Dublin, Ind.”²
The Dublin extension became operational in 1905 and was the final interurban link between Indianapolis and Dayton, Ohio. The R. S. & I. (Richmond Street & Interurban) Railway Co. had already extended their line west to Dublin, and that 16-mile line connected with the Dayton & Western Traction Company system that operated between Richmond and Dayton, Ohio (40 miles). The following report was published in January 1905.
“The remarkable extent to which construction and connection of electric railways in central Indiana and Ohio has been accomplished is well illustrated by an article in the Street Railway Journal, recording a trip of Indiana managers of electric roads, taken recently under the auspices of the Ohio Interurban Railway Association. The tour as made by the official party in special cars, starting from Indianapolis, covered a total of 781 miles, over which the actual running time was about 27 hours, giving an average speed of 27.96 miles per hour for the entire trip.³
That trip took the group east from Indianapolis, through Dublin and Richmond to Ohio, and brought them back to Indianapolis via that same route after visiting several Ohio cities.
In 1907, the T. H. I. & E. (Terre Haute, Indianapolis & Eastern) Traction Company was formed via the consolidation of the I. & E., the R. S. & I. and several other central Indiana interurban companies. The T. H. I & E. ultimately operated one of the largest interurban systems in Indiana.

Cemetery Church to St. Charles Borromeo
The cemetery church to the Holy Charles Borromeo is next to Otto Wagner's church at Steinhof the most important church of Art Nouveau. After a construction period of approximately three years, the church was consecrated in 1911. From 1995 to 2000 it was completely refurbished.
History
Already in the initial planning for the Viennese central cemetery a church site ("Kapellenhof" - chapel court) was provided. The architect Max Hegele created the design for the entire urban development axis and its most important buildings: from the Pylonentor (pylons gate) (with the two laterally arranged lying-out halls to the church with the it enclosing segmental arch-like columbarias (crypt systems). Hegele incorporated the yet existing Sichtziegelbauten (facing bricks buildings) of the Arkadengrüfte (arcade crypts). These were built 1880/81 according to the designs of the architects Mylius and Bluntschli.
During the Second World War the bells of the church have been melted for war purposes. The roof was destroyed by a bomb. The dome with the mosaic equipment was heavily damaged. The western glass window "The Raising of Lazarus" was lost. Apart from that, the Art Nouveau features remained unchanged and complete.
Architecture of the church
The impressive - 58.5 meters high - Zentralkuppelbau (central dome building) extends with the three staircases over an area of 2,231 square meters. Three mighty column portals with eleven meters wide, 22-step flight of stairs leading into the interior of the upper church. Through the entrances of the two corner towers on the front facade one gets into the lower church to the crypt chapels.
The building altogether is flanked by four corner towers. The two rear ones serve as clock and bell towers. The watches have letters instead of numbers, which give the words "Tempus fugit" (time flies). The twelfth hour was marked with a small cross.
The central dome chamber has a diameter of 22.7 meters and reaches an impressive height of 39 meters. Since 1979 lying-in-states are taking place there as well.
In the simpler than the upper church designed lower church are arranged along the central space the by columns separated tomb chapels. These contain a total of 38 tombs .
In the main chapel, located directly under the main altar, is the tomb of Karl Lueger. The 1910 late mayor was buried after his temporary burial in the family grave in the lower church. At that time the church also received the nickname "Dr.-Karl-Lueger Memorial Church".

Interior decoration
The interior design was created by well-known artists of the Art Nouveau. The porch adorn two reliefs of Georg Leisek and Hans Rathausky. The impressive, intensely colored windows and mosaics stem from Leopold Forstner. The valuable works of art on the high altar of marble have been created by Anton Kaan, Franz Klug, Karl Philipp and Adolf Pohl. The representation of the Last Judgement above the high altar was designed by Hans Zatzka.
Arcades and columbarias (crypt systems)
On both sides of the church adjoin semi-circular-like arcades and columbarias. These were built 1906/1907, ie, before the church. Besides 70 arcade crypts and two mausoleums with eight tombs here are 768 columbaria niches.
The term "columbarium" comes from the Romans, meaning "pigeon house". So at the time of the Romans were walls called in which many small niches were eroded. These niches were used for the storage of cinerary urns. In the columbaria niches in the central cemetery but now coffins are housed. Occupied slots are sealed with a concrete slab and get a marble plaque with grave inscription.
General renovation of the church
Subsidence caused by static defects, and penetrating moisture had the church badly affected . The realisation of the renovation work was carried out in three phases. All historically valuable components such as steps and lamps were first inventoried and numbered. They were then removed and after the renewal of the support structure again attached. The interior was also heavily damaged, about 40 percent of the tiled floor was broken, metal and brass parts completely rusted and the mural paitings no longer recognizable.
The restoration of the valuable building fabric and the artistic furnishing was done in coordination with the Federal Monuments Office and according to strict scientific and monument preservation principles.

Because you asked, here's a description of the making of Helium Head.
Though I was giddy and lightheaded with this idea, getting in the air required more than inhaling some helium. My first attempt had me hanging by my hands from a tree branch I could reach by jumping. My camera was mounted to my tripod which was laying on the ground with the camera head angled up. Even with my lens zoomed out to 18mm, I couldn't get my whole body into the frame. I had to get higher, so using a ladder was the answer.
To keep from breaking any limbs (mine, not tree limbs), I set my ladder next to a tree and lashed it to the trunk so that when I was at the top, the ladder wouldn't tip over and put me on my head. After about 4-5 attempts of pushing the shutter button set on a 10 second timer, scrambling up the ladder and turning to sit sideways on the top step (try hanging onto a ladder with just your butt) I was able to get a shot I was happy with. (I suspect I entertained, or perhaps worried my neighbors with all this activity as well) In post production, I used a layer mask and black brush set to about 80% edge hardness to remove the background from around my body.
Next shot was to get a separate photo of my head against a blue sky so I wouldn't have to do any work cutting out around my hair. I moved to a new location, making sure I was still facing into the sun. I added a strobe to the camera to reduce the shadows under my brow, nose, chin, and in my mouth, then held back my collar so that it wouldn't be included in the enlarged head photo. In post-production I used a layer mask to cut-out my head and place it into the body image, then used the warp tool to reduce the size of my neck to fit into my smaller collar opening.
I shot the top branches of a tree to add to the bottom of the photo to help with the illusion that I was rising above the ground. I blurred the tree branches to give them the appearance in the final image of being farther away and not the main focus of the image. Blurring the branches made my feet appear extra sharply focused and helped separate them from the background.
Lastly, I pulled a photo of clouds from my stock "Clouds" folder (I often shoot pictures of just clouds to keep for later use) and composed them into the shot for a little extra detail. Color adjustment, contrast, and spot sharpening was done to the overall image and wallah - 4 hours later I was done!
As the “space race” began in the 1960s and rockets became larger and larger, NASA ran into a problem: vital components of the Gemini and Apollo rockets were manufactured in California, a continent away from the launch center at Cape Canaveral, Florida. Shipping by rail and road was impossible, and by sea was long and expensive.
Two men, John Conroy and Lee Mansdorf, hit on the idea of shipping by air—at the time also considered impossible as there were no aircraft capable of transporting outsized loads in the West. Conroy and Mansdorf founded Aero Spacelines, Inc., a company whose sole purpose would be the conversion and operation of aircraft to handle NASA’s rockets. These aircraft became the Aero Spacelines Super Guppies, conversion of former USAF C-97 Stratofreighters with much larger bulbous fuselages. Eventually, some ten aircraft would be converted and operated by Aero Spacelines (acquired by Tracor in 1968) for NASA.
When the Apollo program ended, NASA continued to utilize Aero Spacelines’ Guppies for the Shuttle and other programs, but a good portion of the company’s work went to Airbus to deliver fuselage components to that company’s main assembly hangar at Toulouse, France. By the 1990s, however, the Guppies were becoming obsolete, and were replaced by converted Airbus A300s—the Airbus Beluga. One remains in operation today, operated by NASA; the others have been retired to museums.
This is the second Super Guppy ever built, and combines two historic aircraft: the wings, engine and forward fuselage were from 52-2693, the USAF's experimental turboprop YC-97J, while the remainder was taken from N1038V, a former Pan American Boeing 377 Stratocruiser. The latter was retired in 1960, and the YC-97J in 1964; both were then combined into this aircraft, which initially retained the N1038V registration of the Pan Am Stratocruiser. After modification into Super Guppy standard in 1965, Aero Spacelines flew it until 1979, when NASA took over direct control. In 1991, it was retired as it had hit the end of its service life, and went on display at Pima in 1995.
This is one of the aircraft the Pima museum hasn't quite gotten to restoring yet; it retains the Spraylat placed on the aircraft during its time in storage at the nearby "Boneyard" at Davis-Monthan AFB.
92016 WFBC DOLLANDSM 890B241D01 F WEMBLEYYD N
In September 2017 the transformer of 92016 was found to have been cracked and the locomotive dragged away for storage. When working from the overhead wires the 25 kV AC power must be converted to 1370 volt AC so that it can be used by a class 92 locomotives traction motors. This is done by the transformer which is positioned underneath the locomotive towards the cab 2 end of the common zone but much of it is obscured by the batteries and transformer tank filled with oil used for cooling and insulation.
