The Eiffel Tower (French: Tour Eiffel) is a lattice tower in Paris. It is named after the engineer Gustave Eiffel, whose company designed and built the tower from 1887 to 1889. It was constructed as the centrepiece of the 1889 World's Fair, and to crown the centennial anniversary of the French Revolution.
It has become a global cultural icon of France and one of the most recognisable structures in the world. The Eiffel Tower is the most visited monument with an entrance fee in the world: 6.91 million people ascended it in 2015.
The tower is 330 metres (1,083 ft) tall, about the same height as an 81-storey building, and the tallest structure in Paris.
66427 rattles through Daresbury on 6th February 2025 with the more or less daily ballst move of 6K06 1230 Shap Summit Quarry to Basford Hall. This was an active period of a freight, light engine and class 33 hauled ECS within about ten minutes of each other.
The tower of the Daresbury Laboratory is seen in the background. The 1962 built facility undertakes research in fields such as accelerator science, bio-medicine, physics & chemistry.

More than two decades ago I was in Berea watching trains when an eastbound CSX manifest freight stopped to wait on traffic ahead. The locomotive engineer invited me to come up to the cab to get some photographs. He poses for a photo. I believe his name was Michael Lewis. (Scanned from color negative film)

I awoke to a text from my engineer friend at East Penn saying we're taking 22 Cars South from Quakertown to Telford, and it instantly grabbed my interest regardless of the weather, this line at best see's 8-12 car trains anymore expect for that one time someone tried to conquer what is now called Butter Hill (story for another day, but we don't talk about that usually) so i got ready and set forth to Quakertown.
This line has a a mere 4 customer's used to be 5 but sadly FIberMark stopped getting cars, the biggest being United States Cold Storage & Musket, the rest are Shelley's Distribution & Fresco everything else is storage 1075 LPG Placarded Tank's and C&D Gonola's, but this year, some USWX Cars got stored for a short bit, which caused this 22 cars train to take them out. This line is far from dead, it's actually pretty active, not compared to the Reading Days when Ore Jennie's ran this line to and from Bethlehem, but it can see service 3 to 4 times a week.
Seeing 22 cars is a treat, so now doubt I went for it, realistically, if the SW1200 wasn't here this wouldn't of occured, the GE B23-7 isn't aging well and on the course to its deathbed, but with the help of the Smurf as we call it, it made this look easy as it drags 22 cars past the Historically Restored Quakertown Station as it starts the journey to Telford, it was a miserable day, but enjoyable.

Collection: Scientific Identity: Portraits from the Dibner Library of the History of Science and Technology - As a supplement to the Dibner Library for the History of Science and Technology's collection of written works by scientists, engineers, natural philosophers, and inventors, the library also has a collection of thousands of portraits of these individuals. The portraits come in a variety of formats: drawings, woodcuts, engravings, paintings, and photographs, all collected by donor Bern Dibner. Presented here are a few photos from the collection, from the late 19th and early 20th century.

Only just caught this - Civil engineer's liveried Class 47 47975 The Institute of Civil Engineers heads north towards Stowmarket
This engine, originally D1723, became 47540 under the renumbering to TOPS. In 1990 it was renumberd 47975 and named. After 5 years it returned to 47540 which it carried until its withdrawal. It is a lucky engine - surviving into preservation, currently with the Wensleydale Railway (2011)
