This old steam engine lives in a small park north of Seattle. In the summer you will see young chidlren climbing all over it.
“This artist’s concept shows what the 4-man GE space station would look like in space. The supply crafts hovering around the station are Gemini vehicles.”
So, this is possibly a MORL precursor? Or, is it MORL without being called MORL? Despite varied literature I came across it's sort of muddled...at least to me. Especially, with this being a General Electric entry/submittal & them being out of the running by the time "MORL" was the common jargon. I think. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I assume the station is spinning. 😉
This has got to be the thickest, heaviest-weight photographic paper with a black & white image on it that I’ve ever come across. It rivals ANY of the heaviest-weight “A KODAK PAPER” (with color image) specimens.
An unexpected & pleasant find, with some other works by the artist, Peter A. Bertolino:

Even more gratifying, thanks yet again to the Legacy website:
“Peter A. Bertolino:
BERTOLINO, PETER A., on May 5, 2004. Beloved husband of Adeline Bertolino, loving father of Michael and Peter Bertolino, devoted grandfather of 3. A Veteran of WWII-U.S. Army.”
While the above is cursory, the following comments more than make up for it:
“My condolences to Peter's family. He was a wonderful man. I can tell you that it was always a pleasure to work with him and to be in his company. I know he was always proud of his work, but even more so of his family. I will remember him fondly.”

And:
“Co-worker from GE days:
“I am very saddened by Pete's death. Pete was a loving and caring person. He always had a story to tell about family, life and especially about his artwork. I still picture Pete with his pipe in his mouth and a grin on his face as he worked on his board. He always made me smile. What a GREAT man. I will cherish all of his Christmas Cards.”

Finally:
“Co-worker from GE days:
“Pete was certainly a great guy. He was a man that I always looked up to, a very special person.”

Yesterday I attended the annual Harewood steam fair. After a comment raised by my Flickr pal, neil156 it would seem that at one point we must have been stood right next to one and other without realising it. Here's the link to Neil's photo.

You never know what you will find walking the beach. This engine block was slowly being reclaimed by nature. The sea and waves had already filled all the available spaces with small pebbles shells and seaweed. They shone like jewels against the dull metal.
Took a rainy day trip down to the Bucks Railway Centre in Quainton this afternoon with my eldest boy. Grotty light today. Got soaked.

Wikipedia: Canadian National 89 is a E-10-a class 2-6-0 "Mogul" type steam locomotive, built in February 1910 by the Canadian Locomotive Company (CLC) for the Grand Trunk Railway (GT). Originally number No. 1009, it was renumbered to No. 911 in 1919. It then came under Canadian National (CN) ownership in 1923 when the Grand Trunk merged. It was then renumbered again to No. 89 in 1951. Most of No. 89's early life is a mystery, but it spent the latter part of its working life in Quebec until retirement in 1958 and being stored in the deadline in Montreal. It was purchased by F. Nelson Blount in 1961, who sent it to operate on the Green Mountain Railroad (GMRC) and later Steamtown, U.S.A.. It was then purchased in 1972 by the Strasburg Rail Road (SRC) who were looking for an engine to pull the half-hour trains. As of 2025, it is in operation at the Strasburg Railroad.
