Construction on the bridge, the second to cross this river, began in 1896, with Leffert L. Buck as chief engineer, Henry Hornbostel as architect and Holton D. Robinson as assistant engineer, and the bridge opened on December 19, 1903 . At the time it was constructed, the Williamsburg Bridge set the record for the longest suspension bridge span on Earth. The record fell in 1924, when the Bear Mountain Bridge was completed.
La construcción del puente, el segundo en cruzar el río Este, se inició en 1896 por el ingeniero Leffert L. Buck, Henry Hornbostel como arquitecto y Holton D. Robinson como ingeniero asistente, siendo inaugurado el 19 de diciembre de 1903. En el momento en que fue construido, el puente de Williamsburg estableció el récord como el puente colgante más largo en la Tierra. Su récord no le duró mucho, ya que en 1924 se inauguró el Puente Bear Mountain.
I still having trouble with my internet connection, BT are sending an engineer on Wednesday morning, so finger cross they will finally find the fault, I am using a mobile dongle thingy, but the reception is pretty poor, so I will try and catch up with you all, as soon as I can :))
Thank you for your comments and invites, Take care, stay safe and have a wonderful week !!

El ingeniero Leandro Alloza en 1864 diseñó el faro, pero tenía un alcance de poca distancia.
En 1891 el ingeniero Modesto Español diseñó un muro de seguridad para proteger el faro, la construcción de la presa se terminó en 1915. El ingeniero José Serrano fue el responsable de la construcción del faro al final de la presa.
Durante los años 90, con la construcción de la Plaza del Mar y Puerto Azahar, se colocó el antiguo faro de Castelló, que fue renovado por uno más moderno y eficiente.
El Faro es un homenaje al pasado y presente del espacio marítimo de El Grau.
The engineer Leandro Alloza in 1864 designed the lighthouse, but it had a small distance range.
In 1891 the engineer Modesto Español designed a safety wall in order to protect the lighthouse, the construction of the dam was finished in 1915. The engineer José Serrano was responsible for the building of the lighthouse at the end of the dam.
During the 90s, with the construction of the Plaza Del Mar and Puerto Azahar, it was placed the old lighthouse of Castelló, which was renewed by a more modern and efficient one.
The Lighthouse is a tribute to the past and present maritime area of El Grau.

“The way I see it, hard times aren't only about money,
or drought,
or dust.
Hard times are about losing spirit,
and hope,
and what happens when dreams dry up.”
After waiting over an hour for mainline moves, Engineer Robert King and his CN L501 heads back south to work industries off the Waukesha Sub towards Schiller Park. At left is Metra's Fox Lake Subdivision, center the CN Waukesha Sub Main and a rarely-used Metra-CN Connection at right. Near 50MPH wind gusts and Minus 28 Degree windchills made the time spent outside of the car brief.

The title refers to the only engineer's name that I automatically recall from a classic Dr Who episode. Unfortunately Engineer Eckersley was a bad 'un, in league other bad 'uns to steal the valuable mining deposits.
Brittle stars, an alternate common name is the 'serpent stars', are a species-rich class of echinoderms with outstanding regenerative abilities. Living under rocks or in crevices with only the tips of the arms exposed, they are known to be seafloor ecosystem engineers. They reshape the seafloor sediment surface and influence the distribution of other seafloor species. They also provide nutrition to fish, sea stars and crab predators.
Their presence in a sediment sample is one indicator of a healthy benthic community. They embody nature's fragility and resilience.

An F-unit offering for this Friday: Metro-North FL9 combo 2033-2027 power northbound Hudson Line train 8809 at Fishkill Creek in Beacon on the morning of 11 July 1992.
Lead unit 2033 that the friendly engineer is waving from is historic, in that it was the last F-unit built by EMD, out of a 21 year, 7,612 unit production run, being delivered as New Haven No. 5059 in 1960.
The Claymills Victorian pumping station is keen to encourage the next generation of engineers. This young man took us down to the the space above the boilers and explained the restoration project he was working on with his team .

Sometimes my mind goes blank when it comes to titles. This title is referring to a review of the lens I was using for this photo. In this review they call this Leica Elmarit 60 mm f2.8 lens for a soulful engineer. I think it is quite fitting to this photo which I actually think have some soul to it. What do you think?
As always, thank you for your faves, comments and views!
Wildrose Charcoal Kilns
Death Valley National Park
Designed by Swiss engineers and built by Chinese laborers in 1879, these kilns produced charcoal for the Modock Mine smelter, about 30 miles west of here. The kilns closed after only three years of use. Because of their brief life and remote location, these may be the best-preserved examples of charcoal kilns in the West.

Utah Railway engineer Stu Turner commands the controls of the RUT311 local as it rumbles into North Salt Lake, Utah, on May 15, 2012. Stu was one of the kindest railroaders I've ever met, offering a friendly wave or a trackside chat. He was tragically taken from us in July 2020 due to brain cancer.
This is an old one from the vault. He was a regular personality who rode his tricycle fitted with a mock-up steam engine around the ByWard Market. Haven't seen him around for over 5yrs.
Note: Rocky Mountain is at the old location of ByWard Market.

HELLO 👋, MY NAME IS BART ROS. And I am an architecture, interior and city photographer working in the Deventer and Overijssel region.
Check out my website at:
And I am an architecture, interior and city photographer working in the Deventer and Overijssel region. You can find me almost daily on the IJssel or in the historic streets of our Hanseatic cities in the Netherlands. Busy bringing you unique images. We can use these images together for marketing purposes and online media. In addition, I make books and calendars of my photography, I teach and I have fun photo walks several times a year.
As a photographer I am based in Deventer; a beautiful historic city, surrounded by nature. The result of my love for photography and the city of Deventer is the 'Deventer calendar' with 12 unique photos and city views of Deventer and the surrounding area. And a book about Deventer with even more unique images called "Extraordinary Deventer 2: Deventer and Surroundings".
I am originally a multimedia engineer and graphic designer, but since a few years I have also focused on photography. From a young age I have always been drawing, painting and taking apart radios, TVs and old cameras. I combine these technical and form-technical interests in my professional life by developing websites, graphic design and photography. As a photographer I can capture the world as I see it.
An epic trip - 6-hours, 30-miles from Ouray to Lake City, Colorado - with rough rocky patches, switchbacks, shelf roads, and sweeping vistas all the way, reaching almost 13,000 feet at the summit. A Jeep Badge of Honor trail for good reason.
From TrailsOffroad.com: In the late 1800’s, miners started digging for gold, silver, lead and other ore in the San Juan Mountains. They needed a way to get people and the ore out to the nearby towns. Those roads left by the long-abandoned mines are now some of the most famous off-road trails in the books. Engineer Pass, a 30-mile trail, is one of them and is part of a trail now known as the Alpine Loop.
There are multiple mine ruins to view and explore the grounds of along the way including the Hard Tack Mine and the Michael Breen Mine.
Mile after mile provides new and more amazing views of Colorado and the San Juan mountains. Oh Point and the official summit have breath-taking panoramas of the mountains.
This trail goes well above the timberline at just over 12,900’. With the altitude comes stunning views of the mountains to the north including the Uncompahgre, Coxcomb, Wetterhorn and Wildhorse mountain peaks. The view is so expansive at Oh Point that on a very clear day, you might be able to see all the way to Utah if you turn your eyes to the west.
After a 10 mph speedo from Turtlepoint into Port Allegany, the engineer on OL-1 notches out the trio of vintage MLWs, as they open back up to track speed. WNYP 630, still wearing its Arkansas & Missouri paint, is the only C630M on the varied roster of Alco models, while the trailing M636s are two of several that WNYP owns.

From Engineer Pass (el. 12,800 ft) on the Alpine Loop in the San Juan Mountains, the view to the north east is dominated by (from left to right) Wetterhorn Peak (14, 021 ft), Matterhorn (13,590 ft) Peak and Uncompahgre Peak (14,321 ft).
On August 31st, 2023, well known railroader Mike Del Vecchio passed away after a battle with cancer. Although I didn't know Mike too well personally, I never heard a bad word spoken about him. Seen here is him posing as the engineer on #4109 during the United Railroad Historical Society's photo shoot in Boonton.

Engineer Gary has his quintet of EMD geeps well in hand as they pull a 30+ car loaded grain train north leveling out after climbing a stiff grade from Ebenezer. Georgia Northeastern GP10 #7562 is in the lead position this afternoon followed by GP9 #6576, GP18 #8705, GP38 #9708 & GP20 #4125.
Winter presents all kinds of interesting challenges as a photographer. The cold, snow, and ice all provide risks and rewards. I decided to brave those elements recently and hiked through a foot of powder to the top of a ridge near Durango, Colorado. My reward was quite special. The last light of the day kissed the top of 12,968 ft. Engineer Mountain while the soft pink light at the end of the day illuminated the snow below in Animas Valley.
'The Institute of Mining Engineers North West Railtour' originated at Crewe and took in ICI Winnington, Hindlow, Buxton, Kelbits Branch, Bickershaw Colliery, Parkside Colliery and Fiddlers Ferry.
We photographed at Kelbits, Bickershaw Colliery and here at Parkside Colliery and it was a tight run thing, a slick opreration no messing about.
Traction throughout was 37706 'Conidae' & 47479 'Track 29' seen here about to depart from Parkside at 17..00 September 21st 1991. Picture taken from the treeless (at the time) M6 embankment.
* At its peak Parkside employed 1800 and potentially 100 million tons of coal were identified. All that of course is history, closure came in March 1993 realising only a fraction of that total. Parkside was the last Pit to close from the once vast Lancashire Coalfield. Nothing remains, to stand here today all you would see is just a forest of trees.
