The “Queen of Steam” continues to explore new frontiers and make history, now as an official Virginia landmark.
The train was built in May of 1950 by Norfolk & Western. The train was used to carry passengers from Virginia to Ohio and from the western parts of the Commonwealth to West Virginia. It is the sole surviving member of the fourteen Class J locomotives.
In 1952, it was one of the locomotives that pulled Dwight D. Eisenhower’s presidential campaign train from Columbus, Ohio, to Kenova, West Virginia. Now, the steam train is owned and operated by the Virginia Museum of Transportation, Inc., in Roanoke.

The Lockheed C-130 Hercules is an American four-engine turboprop military transport aircraft designed and built by Lockheed (now Lockheed Martin). Capable of using unprepared runways for takeoffs and landings, the C-130 was originally designed as a troop, medevac, and cargo transport aircraft.
The versatile airframe has found uses in other roles, including as a gunship (AC-130), for airborne assault, search and rescue, scientific research support, weather reconnaissance, aerial refueling, maritime patrol, and aerial firefighting. It is now the main tactical airlifter for many military forces worldwide. More than 40 variants of the Hercules, including civilian versions marketed as the Lockheed L-100, operate in more than 60 nations.
The C-130 entered service with the U.S. in 1956, followed by Australia and many other nations. During its years of service, the Hercules has participated in numerous military, civilian and humanitarian aid operations. In 2007, the transport became the fifth aircraft to mark 50 years of continuous service with its original primary customer, which for the C-130 is the United States Air Force. The C-130 is the longest continuously produced military aircraft at more than 60 years, with the updated Lockheed Martin C-130J Super Hercules being produced as of 2023.
C-130H Identical to the Echo variant but with more powerful Allison T56-A-15 turboprop engines. Introduced in Jun. 1974 with 308 ordered.
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).

On June 24 2018, Southern Shorthaul Railroad operated their first grain train on the Mildura line since it was recently converted from broad to standard gauge as part of the Murray Basin Rail Project in taking place in Victoria's North/West region.
The train loaded at Birchip and ran as #7984 bound for Appleton Dock in Melbourne.
Travelling on the standard gauge lines in the state, the journey from Birchip saw the train run south to Maryborough, then west to Ararat along the cross country line which reopened in Feb 2018.
From Ararat the train headed via Cressy to North Geelong, then onto Melbourne from there.

I was messing around trying to build an engine to go into a new MOC for this months LUGNuts challenge, and I decided to pull out all my MOC engines to have a look at them together. All in all they're pretty much similar, yet all done differently. I sure like that jet blade piece! None of them are based on anything real, some of them have their exhaust pipes removed, and two of them haven't been used yet.

Can't wait till they get this done. The "Tod Engine" refers to a massive, historic 4,000-horsepower stationary steam engine built by the William Tod Company in Youngstown, Ohio, for powering a steel rolling mill, now a major restoration project by Youngstown Steel Heritage Foundation (Youngstown Steel Heritage) aiming to run it again for educational purposes,
