Joseph Adamson and Co at Hyde were boilermakers. The company started in partnership by Joseph Adamson and Henry Booth in 1874. The works which continued making boilers to the 1960s and beyond are now a small industrial estate.

Judging by the fact this was a well established trail in Algonquin Park and the sheer height of this dam, it appeared that generations of beavers have been honing their engineering skills here.
Architects James Gowan and James Stirling. My new favourite building (for the moment)! Great reflections in the recently renovated engineering block roof glazing. The slightly blotchy effect is due to the translucent fibreglass infill to the glazing units, all to match the original installation.
Some photographs take a little more effort than others. This is one of them.
Back in 2012, I photographed one of Osaka’s more unusual sights from a distance: the Hanshin Expressway (Ikeda Route), where an exit ramp passes directly through a building. It’s one of those pieces of urban engineering that feels almost impossible until you see it with your own eyes.
For this trip, I wanted to revisit the location, but with a different perspective. That meant spending quite some time researching possible vantage points and figuring out how I could get closer to the structure while maintaining a composition that showed just how remarkable it really is.
Eventually, I found my way into an office building across the street. The view was exactly what I had been looking for, but the conditions were far from ideal. The windows were covered in dirt and grime, leaving only a small clean section near the very top. Reaching it required some creative maneuvering and an almost impossible shooting position, balancing both camera and tripod in a way that probably looked rather ridiculous to anyone watching.
Despite the challenges, I'm quite pleased with the result. Sometimes photography is less about perfect conditions and more about persistence. Finding a way to make an image despite the obstacles often makes the final photograph all the more rewarding.

UP Engineering Special, running under Symbol PJCPR2 crosses over the Meramec River in Sherman, MO running on Track 1 of the UP Jefferson City Sub near MP 24 on June 14, 2018.
My day had started with dropping my youngest daughter at Vashon High School to take the ACT. I figured I'd bop over to Luther and see what showed up, maybe head over to Venice or Madison for a bit. Word came along about this Special being called out of Jefferson City and already to Gasconade by the time word got to me. I hopped on 70, zoomed through downtown STL, then blasted out I-44 to get to the best EB shot I could think of in the area. The trip took about 45 minutes and I got the Sherman with about 15 min to spare. Quite the haul for what would turn out to be the only decent catch I got of it.

66742 makes the unusual sight of running 'wrong line' at Beattock Summit during an engineering possession around the Beattock area. 66742 was approaching the stabling point for all the engineering trais involved with the possession, 15/4/23.

Designed by architects Klug and Smith and built by Burell Engineering and Construction in 1923 - the Huron Cement Co. played a small part in a much larger network of Midwest cement silos.
The silos were used to help hold and distribute the cement products produced by the US Steel Corps (USS Gary Works) in Gary, IN. These cement products were the byproduct of the steel smelting process and were distributed throughout the Great Lakes region and beyond.
The decline of the US Steel industry during the 1970's caused many of the connected cement companies to downsize their operations as well.
In 1987, the Huron Cement Co was purchased by the LaFarge Cement Co. and the Milwaukee Plant was closed due to it's inconvenient location along the winding Menomonee River and up the Burnam Canal. A replacement plant was built on Jones Island and opened for business in 1996. The Jones Island plant remains in operation to this day.
I turn my attention now to Lumphini Park, Bangkok's version of Central Park. When I arrived the electrics were being fixed

To boldly go where no "fan" has gone before... you need a good warp and of course a clean and well maintained engineering room. So here's Scotty's kingdom where everything is possible even fixing the core with an old spoon ;D
I've taken a few pics of my bike since I've had it. Unfortunately I felt like none them captured it in a way where its beauty can truely be appriciated. Nothing like a little mechine glamour every now and then.

Das DampfLandLeute-Museum Eslohe ist ein technisches Museum und Heimatmuseum in Eslohe, Sauerland.
Das heutige Museum befindet sich auf dem Gelände einer früheren Kleineisen-und Maschinenfabrik (Eisenhammer/ Kettenschmiede) im Salweytal.
Hier wird die Wasserkraft des Salweybaches zum Betrieb von einer großen und kleinen Francis-Turbine verwendet.
Three years into the four year engineering works and track replacement seems to have reached Montreuil, piles of new sleepers in the yard and an engineering train; V212K and V212L are ex-Deustche Bahn locos now in yellow and operated by Meccoli, they date from the early 1960s. The view from the walk around the ramparts of the old town.
