An image of (part) of the warehouse at the Stanley Dock, Liverpool, UK.
Apart from anything else, I thought I'd visit here for a historical point of view, the building is starting to be redeveloped into several hundred apartments as part of a larger development of the whole Stanley Dock site. The plans involve hollowing out the centre of the warehouse to create a garden-filled courtyard.
It's hard to get a scale of the building, it's super massive big!!, the building it's self is the Stanley Dock Tobacco Warehouse, is a grade II listed building and is the world's largest brick warehouse. Standing 125 feet (38 m) high, the building was, at the time of its construction in 1901, claimed to be the world's largest building in terms of area. The 14 storey building spans across 36 acres (150,000 m2) and its construction used 27 million bricks, 30,000 panes of glass and 8,000 tons of steel!
I used to see this when travelling to Southport by train to visit some of my uni mates, and was always amazed by it, but had never visited it until the other week (It was too bright on that occasion for photography), so made a return visit today. I'm glad it has a future, and a new lease of life, it's going to take some converting though, mainly due to the sheer size and scale of the building :)

This is Edna's Family Rockies visitation and introduction to the Rockies, Estes and Rocky Mountain Park area. I suppose that I really didn't have to edit this old snap shor but I figured that if I didn't jump on it right away, the water would spill from Colorado's Grand Lake. That would be bad because it is part of the Big Thonpson Water Project and produces electricity on the east side of the divide. Imagine my panic!
Here, hanging out on the docks at Grand Lake on a mid-summer day is Aunt Peg, Edna Sophie Michel and Bill's mother, Alice Isabelle Kiteley. Accordingly this outfit was her premarriage visit to the St. Vrain, Rocky Mountain, Colorado area and above om the Beaver Meadows route. They must have visited the Many Parks Curve construction of Trail Ridge Road on the same visit. The image shows Grand Lake recreation playground on the west edge of Rocky Mountain National Park.
Believe me, I am still otherwise packed with projects includong a new laptop... the days are just packed, Calvin. After I scanned this, I had to immediately do a quick edit to keep the water in Grand Lake, even though it was not much of an original. Frankly, now I have a load of genealogical retouching as wo;; as a new series hanging out in Photoshop. Ah well, I can drop it into the family album.
This was a minor restore and retouch but I showed the before and after. At least, you might take a shot at something this bad of yours. I used tricks to better the image but I didn't have to invent what was missing like the Rockaway retouch: [https://www.flickr.com/photos/rockypix/35374462584/]. I expect this was no more a vestibule express train car than Rockaway was more than a painted tugboat.
Ely Dock Junction signal box was located in the v of the junction between the Soham branch from Newmarket and the Cambridge to King's Lynn line (in front of the signal box). Thursday 14th November 1991
Ely Dock Junction signal box was a London & North Eastern Railway Company type 11a design that opened in 1928 fitted with an 82 lever Westinghouse Brake & Saxby Signal Company Limited A2 frame (frame number 10007) replacing an earlier signal box located on the down side of the line a short distance closer Ely railway station. A British Railways Eastern Region individual function switch signalling console was scheduled to be commissioned on 19th January 1985 in conjunction with the closure of Waterbeach signal box but the resignalling was postponed, it was commissioned on 2nd February 1985 controlling emergency replacement of 245, 246, 248, 249 and 252 signals. The signal box closed on 11th April 1992 and was demolished in late April 1992 with signalling between Hiams level crossing and Ely Station North passing to Cambridge signal box on 4th May 1992 after remodelling of the Ely station area
The signal box carries a Network South-East printed nameplate which replaced British Railways corporate identity printed nameplates in the late 1980s. On the front of the signal box is a Network South-East printed sign announcing ← Ely 1 mile which replaced a British Railways Eastern Region blue enamel sign which announced ← Ely ½ mile
Behind the signal box is what looks like a McKenzie & Holland three doll balanced bracket with wooden dolls on a lattice main stem carrying (left to right) Ely Dock Junction signal box 55 signal (down soham to single line) with Ely Station North signal box's Single Line fixed distant signal below it, Ely Dock Junction signal box 58 signal (down soham to down main) with Ely Station North signal box 39 signal (Down Main Distant) below it and Ely Dock Junction signal box 57 signal (down soham to down siding)
57 signal was a full size arm until the down goods line was reduced to a down siding, possibly on 29th June 1985 when Ely Station South signal box closed
The distant arms were formerly Ely Station South signal box's down distant signals. The arm beneath 58 signal was formerly Ely Station South signal box 59 signal (Down Main Distant) until Ely Station South signal box closed on 29th June 1985 and the absolute block section was extended to between Ely Dock Junction and Ely Station North signal boxes

I'd love to see some of my Flickr friends next Friday night for the tree lighting here, followed by the lighting in Cape Porpoise.
A dock (from Dutch dok) is either the area of water between or next to a human-made structure or group of structures involved in the handling of boats or ships, usually on or close to a shore, or the structures themselves.

40082 stands with a rake of PCA Cement Wagons on the former Preston Dock Estate on July 9th 1984. During the redevelopment of the area and the building of the Penwortham By-Pass over the adjacent River Ribble, Blue Circle Cement had temporary discharge facilities here. The empty wagons were being returned to Hope in Derbyshire. The tracks here have now been lifted and the site is now part of a link road from the Penwortham By-Pass to the retail developments on the site of the former Dock area.
Just visible on the left is one of the 4-wheel TTA tank wagons then used on the Bitumen and Petroleum workings to the storage and works facilities at the West end of the Dock Estate.

A MOC I built a few months back but never really posted properly.
This is the Docking ring version, which features an outer-space scene with planets and stars.
The Dock Road has always been one of my favourite roads, and a hive of industry in Liverpool. The Bascule Bridge was re-opened after being refurbished in 2008, and these days 20,000 cars and dock traffic pass over it.
Any box is o.k. if it can hold index cards; made from paper, plastic, or woods. Soul is much more than body.
I've been using a card box from Correct. I call it as "Dock" because all index cards I wrote gathers and stored there. All of my index cards are cetralized into the dock. According to increasing a number of index cards, the dock become more important, because it prevent your index cards from dissipation. They are my external brain, or analog "HDD".
I own one dock system at my office, and another at my home. One dock system is consisted by three docks.

Curly dock (Rumex crispus), also known as sour dock, yellow dock, narrowleaf dock, or curled dock, is a perennial weed native to Europe, Asia, and parts of Africa. Curly dock was introduced into the U.S., possibly arriving as a seed contaminant in the early 1600’s when the British brought crops and cattle to New England. The weed has spread to every U.S. state and Canadian province, and is now considered one of the most widely distributed weeds in the world. Curly dock seed can remain dormant in the soil for 80 years and germinates at various times throughout the year.
