SpaceEngine - A free space simulation program that lets you explore the universe in three dimensions, from planet Earth to the most distant galaxies. Areas of the known universe are represented using actual astronomical data, while regions uncharted by astronomy are generated procedurally. Millions of galaxies, trillions of stars, countless planets - all available for exploration. You can land any planet, moon or asteroid and watch alien landscapes and celestial phenomena. You can even pilot starships and atmospheric shuttles.
Apart from a brief spell of eight return workings in May by 014, there has not been consistent Class 92 haulage on the 6X41/6L48 Dagenham-Garston car circuit since early February. This looks to be changing, with 92044 being sent north from Wembley to Crewe on 24 September to then move to Garston the following day to replace the incumbent shed.
The last Class 92 in original Railfreight "Triple Grey" livery to be running on Network Rail metals, GBRf's 92 044 "Couperin" runs light engine through Acton Bridge on 0Z42 Crewe Down Holding Siding to Garston Car Terminal.

My new North American diesel engine in the Canadian Nation Railway scheme is the first Lego loco I have built since my childhood days and was strongly inspired by the EMD-GP 7, 9 and 20 diesel engines and other similar types that came in full high hood configuration, but I went on to building the model rather freely, leaving out things I didn’t want and not sticking to any particular real model.
Being 9+ studs wide, it’s quite a beast and fits very well to the “large city minifigure scale” preferred by ER0L and me. It drives on two 9V train motors from the 90s. The lighting is realized with materials from that time as well, energized by a separate battery box in the shorter section of the hood and thus illuminating the two fronts and cabin of the engine independently from the transformer. That way, the light can be on even when the model stands still.
I went for moving pilots, even though they don’t exist on such models in reality. This was mostly due to the prolonged bionicle trucks I wanted to use here, which would otherwise have made the stairs stand out too far from the trucks in curves and switches.
I have nearly finished building the first of several tank cars for it, so consider these pics an “opener” for more train equipment to come from me.
You'd be forgiven for mistaking this Oshkosh Fire Engine Ladder Truck for a Matchbox. It looks pretty identical to the original and even wears Matchbox style wheels but its actually made by Maisto. A great deal of their earlier stuff were nothing more than MBX copies and not bad copies either sharing the same quality and finish but invariably a little bit cheaper.
The vehicle itself looks beautiful odd ball with its huge front overhangs and pseudo space age styling, it reminds me a little of the old Nissan Diesel equivalent.
This is an earlier incarnation of this model with its different wheels, true to form Maisto still produce this casting though sadly it looks noticeably cheaper with an horrendous looking lowered ride height!

As well as collecting models made by the more well known toy manufacturers I also have a big interest in the lesser known ones particularly from the Far East. A lot of these manufacturers never put their own name on either the models or packaging which makes identification pretty difficult. This charming little fire engine I think was made by a company called Supreme though the packaging states David Halsall now known as HTI. The fire engine itself may well be based on a real vehicle but I have no idea which though there are resemblences to the old Corgi Junior ERF Simon Snorkel.

FJR710 was the prototype turbofan engine designed and built in Japan. This FJR710/600S type was used for "Asuka" STOL research plane. FJR710 didn't enter mass production, but led to international collaboration of V2500.

The English called station wagons "shooting brakes" or "estates". This Rolls-Royce example seems to have lost its way in the desert southwest.

War Department "Austerity" 2-8-0, WD No. 79257 is a preserved British steam locomotive. It is the only survivor of its type.
Originally built by the Vulcan Foundry in 1944, works No. 25428, it was given the WD No. 79257. During the liberation of Europe, it was transferred to Mainland Europe with the British Army. After the war, it was sold to Nederlandse Spoorwegen (NS, Dutch Railways), where it became part of the NS 4300II Class, No. 4383. NS in turn sold it, along with another classmate to Statens Järnvägar (SJ, Swedish State Railways), where it became SJ Class G11 No. 1931. SJ made extensive modernisation to the locomotive.
No. 1931 was saved from scrap by Keighley and Worth Valley Railway and ran in SJ condition for several years. Extensive restoration work, began in 1993 has restored 79257 to more or less original condition, as "British Railways No. 90733", one higher than the last BR ex-WD Austerity 2-8-0, 90732 Vulcan.

this is one of the engines from a wellington bomber that crashed in hardwick taking the crew with it..
a two stroke engine from an old commer truck. you can see just to the side of the supercharger that is on the front of the engine the drive shaft of the cooling fan that was prone to failure because as it looks it is a bit flimsy and weak
