“Ground Control to Major Tom
Commencing countdown, engines on
Check ignition and may God's love be with you.”

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.
New Haven Railroad diesel electric locomotive trio of FA-1 # 0420 & FB-1, plus another FA-1 is seen while leading a manifest freight train by the Hills Grove tower SS139 along the Shore Line route in Rhode Island, ca 1950's. Today this area is known a Hillsgrove. You may observe the mechanical pipe linkages extending out from the tower to operate switch turnouts and perhaps signals.

The name WULFRUN COACHES is fictional.
This was a while back. This is somewhere between Attalla and Chattanooga. Its been a while since the steam engines ran through. I wish they still did.
So first of all sorry, I didn’t post this sooner. (School) now about the build.
I really enjoyed the grain technique from Kursk v1, but I felt like the scene was missing an element of carnage. It was the biggest tank battle in history after all. The t 34 is Brickmania. I had the instructions from a book and was like why not go all Brickmania Tanks figs everything. I was also inspired to add onto this scene after watching a really cool video about anti tank tactics on the eastern front www.youtube.com/watch?v=FxJZJflMEiw One of these tactics included climbing on the back of the tank, opening the engine compartment with a hatchet and throwing a grenade into the engine compartment.
Construction criticism appreciated.
PLEASE,invitations or self promotion in your comments, THEY WILL BE DELETED. My photos are FREE for anyone to use, just give me credit and it would be nice if you let me know, thanks - NONE OF MY PICTURES ARE HDR.
Originally built by Alco in 1910 for the Maine Central Railroad, it is a steam 2-8-0 engine. This locomotive was at one time under restoration for operation on the Conway Scenic, but the plan was stopped in 2007. 501 is on display next to the turntable in North Conway and has undergone a cosmetic restoration.
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

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).
woops, what happened here? There's a new engine :)
I revised my E2 model a bit, added some details and changed the livery to this more realistic one.
Aaand as I worked on the A1 Terrier what better excuse chance to make a shot with all my LBSCR engines :P
The terrier has 444 parts, is 100% buildable (not counting the cuved 2x2 tiles in black behind the smokebox door). Might be an easy build as I still have much Medium Nougat leftover from Gladstone :)
I did borrow some of the Terrier's design from Carl Greatrix's design. Of course I had to make use of the magnifying glasses for the porthole windows.
Pleasley Coal Mining Museum, near Mansfield, UK. The South Engine, built 1922 by Markham of Chesterfield.
No. 6046 was built as works no.70280 by the Baldwin Locomotive Company in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA, and the locomotive was exported to France in 1945 to help with the war effort.
Once her use with the French SNCF 6046 was sold to Hungary where she worked for the state railway before being withdrawn.
Having passed through a number of owners since then restoration was completed at the Churnet Valley Railway in 2012. The big 2-8-0, engine is on loan to the NYMR for the main season and has put on some spectacular displays on the climb from Grosmont.
She is seen here having arrived at Pickering with a mid-morning train from Grosmont.

Another engine plate at the Leighton Buzzard steam railway. Not originally a steam railway, it was used to transport sand from the local quarry. When closed, enthusiasts re-opened with engines bought or donated to the railway from all over the world.
The Baldwin Locomotive Works (BLW) was an American manufacturer of railroad locomotives from 1825 to 1951. Originally located in Philadelphia, it moved to nearby Eddystone, Pennsylvania, in the early 20th century. The company was for decades the world's largest producer of steam locomotives, but struggled to compete as demand switched to diesel locomotives. Baldwin produced the last of its 70,000-plus locomotives in 1951, before merging with the Lima-Hamilton Corporation on September 11, 1951, to form the Baldwin-Lima-Hamilton Corporation.
