Some neat old tractors from this show a couple of years ago. Now It's time to go to this year's show.

What a beautiful piece of machinery! All motorbike enthusiasts will recognise this as twin cylinder 998cc Vincent engine, probably dating from around the late 1940s. I spotted the bike in Looe, but it had a couple of seriously ugly metal pannier boxes on the back, so I decided not to photograph the whole of it. I suspect it could be a B series Rapide, dating from 1946 onwards. The HRD name was apparently dropped in 1950 to avoid confusion with the American Harley Davidson (HD).

Avro Shackleton MR.3 WR982 at the Gatwick Aviation Museum Charlwood Surrey, occasional engine runs are performed. A former crew member gave an excellent insight to operations with the type during the cold war. Entering service in March 1958 I last came across this aircraft at RAF Cosford in 1982 when I photographed it outside due to a hangar reshuffle, it was then employed as a instructional airframe (8106M) from 1970 (when flown in) to 1988 after sale to this museum

Rolling stock of two railroads at the Campbell Hall, NY New Jersey Transit. Station. The station is on the Erie Railroad's Graham Cutoff. This was a freight only line through the Erie, Erie Lackawanna, and Conrail years. It only began to see passenger service when Conrail abandoned the old Erie main line through Orange County. The Eries branch to Maybrook and Montgomery has been turned over to the short line Middletown and New Jersey Railroad when this trackage became taken over by Norfolk Southern.
8.10.2016. LMS Stanier '8F' Class 2-8-0 No 48624 passes Woodthorpe, light engine, on a rather dull October morning.
Last Friday an old colleague, he was my manager some time ago, invited me to go and see him fly so that I could take some picalillies of the event.
What you see is a deltawing and attached to is a Mosquito. The deltawing is from Italy and the Mosquito is from Sweden if I remember correctly. The Mosquito is a sleepingbag with an engine attached to it.
To take off, he starts running and simultaneously revvs the shit of that little engine. The wing does its thing and it lifts up and he's air airborne. Then he has to get his legs into the sleepingbag and zip up and retract the landing gear (two legs at the end). As far as he knows, he is the only one in the country who has one of these.
It's super cool. A man can fly, by himself!
Picked this up today.. no idea why, I just liked it.. looks crudely built, possibly home made.. unless you know differently.

In 2000, The New South Wales Transport Museum organised a nine-day railtour from Sydney to Melbourne locations on the standard gauge network in Victoria.
The Millennium Aurora utilised the preserved rolling stock from the famous Southern Aurora interstate passenger service and two of the iconic NSWGR C38 4-6-2s.
We were blessed with pretty good weather and chased it for two days from Melbourne to Portland and then on to Dimboola - I'm surprised I have not previously uploaded any images to Flickr of the chase.
Unfortunately I wasn't taking notes of where the individual pics were taken - but here we see 3801/3830 on 25 April 2000 I think somewhere between Hamilton and Dunkeld, Victoria, with the train was en route from Portland to Dimboola. Victoria

Located on display in Brownwood Texas I believe this is a Baldwin 2-6-2 and it is from the AT&SF line. I was so lucky to catch it in such beautiful sunlight!
My plane had part of the engine cowling from an old livery Air Canada CFN56-5A5 engine... It's a bit difficult to see in the picture but the newer polar blue is very much more metallic than the plane old white. Up close it looks spectacularly different. Away from you you don't get the effect as much. I Prefer the metallic look although I'm still not crazy about the polar blue.
