CSS Acadia is a former hydrographic surveying and oceanographic research ship of the Hydrographic Survey of Canada and its successor the Canadian Hydrographic Service.
Acadia served Canada for more than five decades from 1913–1969, charting the coastline of almost every part of Eastern Canada including pioneering surveys of Hudson Bay. She was also twice commissioned into the Royal Canadian Navy (RCN) as HMCS Acadia, the only ship still afloat to have served the RCN in both World Wars. Today she is a museum ship, designated as a National Historic Site of Canada, moored in Halifax Harbour at the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic.[1]
Retaining her original engines, boilers and little-changed accommodations, she is one of the best preserved Edwardian ocean steamships in the world and a renowned example of Canada's earliest scientific prowess in the fields of hydrography and oceanography.

CSS&SB Standard Steel built 26 at South Bend, Indiana on August 18, 1965, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler.
During January 1982, Chicago experienced severe cold weather which crippled the CSS&SB's fleet of old interurban cars. To replace the out of service cars, the RTA loaned the CSS&SB a train of RTA bilevels with an F40PH-2. Here the train is seen coming off of the CSS&SB and onto the ICG at Kensington.

hehehe, not many photos tonight. The camera police got me. One day I'll be carried out of some venue for sure.
OMG!!! With that light they think I would manage anything with my silly Sony DSCH2. I WISH!!!!
I had many cameras in my bag but the girl was fine at the door when I said I had been photographing around london. I should've known once inside the guys in there wouldn't be that nice.
Great gig though, CSS even played some brazilian music before their entrance. I even wriggled my butt a bit.
Para meu amigos brasileiros. Essa banda e brasileira para alguns de voces saberem. Eles fazem muito sucesso aqui na Inglaterra.
Eu gosto muito deles e e sempre bom de ver gente da terra tocando por aqui.
Hoje a noite entrei sem problema com minha camera, mas dentro os segurancas nao estavam tao amigaveis e mandaram eu guardar a camera. Fico triste quando nao posso fotografar mas me divirto assim mesmo pois adoro meus shows de musica ao vivo como voces ja devem ter percebido.
Com a luz que estava no palco seria um milagre conseguir alguma coisa que valesse a pena mas mesmo assim eles nao dao moleza.
O show foi otimo e eles ate tocaram aquela musica Requebra e eu ate dei uma sambadinha de leve.
Beijos meus amigos.
