NASA beat me to it!
Okay, they did a 1.5 billion pixel image, I'll give it to them. And a mighty fine one too.

It inspired me (plagiarism attempt) to make a similar shot.
Here is my current fleet of *completed* GWR locos.

For those of you who have seen my work from the beginning, you may be wondering about my GWR 5700 and 1400 classes. Long story short, they are old models, made in LDD only, so lack of parts was a thing with those builds. Thinking of going ahead and trying to reverse engineer tracepierce2592 locos, but that will be a while off. For now, my main focus is finishing off the rest of my large steam engines on the list. Containing GWR, LMS, LNER, SR and BR standards.

I took this yesterday... I was pleased that the chimney had survived the storms and looks very solid. However, that crack in the south wall, which we first noted in 2008, has begun to spread and cause stones to be displaced. I suppose that it is too dangerous to try and conserve, not that there's the money for that any way.

This station is still standing. The house was active from 1876 to 1976. I took this photo in the summer of 1974.
I’ve been unable to find very much information on this interesting building. It is located at 2100 N. 2nd Street, in the near north-side of St. Louis, Missouri, and currently houses American Timber Salvage. That company is in the business of salvaging historic building wood materials for re-use, and is owned by Bruce Gerrie, who collaborated with artist Bob Cassilly to provide materials for the world famous City Museum. The City Museum, which is located in a converted shoe factory in downtown St. Louis, is built almost entirely with cast offs from demolitions. Mr. Gerrie is also the owner and curator of the St. Louis Architectural Museum, which is located inside of the City Museum.
Above the door of this structure can faintly be seen the words “Engine Co. 26.” As best as I’ve been able to determine, this was a former firehouse built in 1887. The old cobblestone street can still be seen leading up to the front door, which mostly likely saw horse-drawn fire engines in its early days. I have been unable to find any information indicating how long this building remained in operation as a fire house. Apparently, in the 1990’s the building was used by some artists (JD Street, Tom Seymour and "Evil" Ted Smith) who went on to some acclaim as special effects gurus in the film industry after moving to California.
