Today we had a unique opportunity to see and photograph this special steam engine #844, UP's "Living Legend". It was saved from the scrap yard and put into special service in 1960 after diesel engines took over the rails but has been retired from passenger service over 60 years ago. It has become Union Pacific’s ambassador of goodwill. This engine left Cheyenne, WY Tuesday, where it was restored and returned to service in 2016, on a special excursion to Boise and then back again. This was photographed as it passed by our house. It was pulling several passenger cars and a back up diesel engine.
Found a bit more info on this engine (from local newspaper). Construction was completed in 1944, weight is 454 ton.

Follows another theme, motor cycle oriented. Used to ride, very strictly amateur, non technical, just for the fun and freedom it gave.

The three main engines of the Space Shuttle orbiter Discovery (OV-103). National Air and Space Museum, Udvar-Hazy Center. Virginia
Developed in the 1970s by the Marshall Space Flight Center, the space shuttle main engine was the world's most sophisticated reusable rocket engine. After the solid rocket boosters were jettisoned, the main engines provided thrust which accelerated the shuttle from 3,000 mph to more than 17,000 mph in order to reach low earth orbit. The engines operated for 8 minutes and 40 seconds for each shuttle flight, with a combined output of 37 million horsepower, and a combined maximum thrust of more than 1.2 million pounds.

The first generation Mustang introduced in 1965 was the first of the Pony cars. In order to keep down developement costs and to save time the concept utilized many proprietary components. It used drive train and components from thee Falcon and Fairlane and a similar platform type to the Falcon. Introduced in 1964 ahead of the 1965 model year meaning the 1965 year changes were made in mid 1965 as is the case with this car. This included the introduction of the 289 Ci engine with a twin barrel carb giving 200 bhp a four barrel carb was also available with a power increase to 225 bhp. The 1966 model is very similar with changes to the quarter panel badges and a bared grille replaced the mesh version.
For 1967 a features a major re-design

Visitors for the Spring Gala 53808 and 8572 meet at Bridgnorth. This could have been a scene featuring two LNER locomotives in that companies' livery, however B1 1264 was pulled from the gala the week before and the 7F was brought in as a late replacement.
Robey & Co Ltd was founded in 1854, by Robert Robey, as manufacturers of portable steam engines and thrashing machines. By 1862 they had expanded greatly and exhibited a display of agricultural equipment; "fixed engines, traction engines, ploughing tackle, corn mills, saw benches etc" at the Great Exhibition. Soon they extended the range to include a complete range of mining equipment from winding engines and pumping engines to locomotives, cages and kibbles (mine bucket).

This engine is one and a half feet long and may well be a running model but it wasn't running when I took this picture.
The Gas-up show is put on by people that devote their interest in antique engines and display their equipment at the show. Much of it is operational and as you see some of it is very photogenic.
Antique Engine Equipment Show - I have a lot of pictures of the same event in 2015. I didn't retake the same items this year so check out the album GAS-UP
It's nice just to build. This engine was made from table scraps using some BBB medium wheels. The Pistons work and it's able to go around corners. I especially loved creating the front of this engine with all the small details!
Happy to be able to walk through all parts of the model of the Orient Express Train used for the 2017 film Murder on the Orient Express.
Now part of the Bassenthwaite Lake Station café.
Sick with a cold last few days but I've been working on the engine section, which I feel is the weakest part of the SHIP at the moment. So here's a before and after shot. It's better but still not 100% happy.
The light bley section needs more greebling, not too much, but more. Also I just spotted a mistake I need to fix at the back!
