The Kampf Ingenieur Panzer-2 is a combat engineering vehicle built by Konigsblau Systems and derived from the SPZ-50 Samurai IFV Hull. The vehicle features a powerful excavator bucket, as well as internal and external stowage for tools. It carries 6 combat engineers, along with a driver and gunner who may also be used for extra hands if needed. The Kipz-2 are usually held in battalion engineer sections, or the brigade engineer battalion, in typical operations, the vehicles are often attached one per company from the battalion engineer section.

”Who’s there?”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Walter Newell, an oceanographer and engineer based in New York City. Yeah, New York, the home of every generic and clichéd superhero story. Well guess what? Buckle up as you’re in for the ride of… well… another one of those stories. Walter Newell, like many scientists that have come and pass has begun creating a device that promises to be a “step in the right direction” in his field of science. Have you heard that one before?
Thought so.
Here’s some generic backstory to get you caught up to speed:
All his life, Walter has been fascinated with the ocean. He was intrigued as a young boy by the movies that depicted the creatures that roamed the deep blue abyss. The thing that stood out the most was the fact that there was so much about the ocean that has yet to be discovered. When new findings would emerge he would be jealous of those men and women that were lucky enough to be there. So, he did everything he could to ensure his future as someone that would become famous making new discoveries about the ocean. He read, watched, and studied everything he could about the ocean.
With his head full of, figuratively, everything one could know about the ocean he applied to the best school that had the very program he knew would get him a job with a major company. His goal was a company that stood out to him. This company had shown interest in almost anyone that would show up at their doorstep with an idea to give to them. Well that was if you wanted to make an advancement in technology. Walter had poured over this for the years and years he spent in college.
Now before we get to that, we’ll need to visit a girl. This girl was anything but ordinary. Her name was Diane. She loved the ocean as much as, if not more than, Walter. The two rivaled each other with every assignment they were given. They always had identical test scores and were co-valedictorians as they graduated. In the following months after they’re graduation, they began to date. This moved quickly as Walter asked Diane if she would like to help him with his project. Without hesitation, she said yes. So, they began working on something that would be sure to set them apart from anyone else trying to get a job at…
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Advanced Idea Mechanics?” Diane asked.
”Yeah, I’ve heard a lot of great things about them.”
“Alright. Let’s do this!”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It took them a little over a year to fully develop a reasonable idea. They took their idea to Advanced Idea Mechanics and got enough funding for a prototype. During the building time, Walter proposed to Diane and they were set to marry the next summer. With everything coming up in spades, Walter felt like he was finally making a name for himself. His once rival was now his best friend and fiancé. His passion turned into his job and without his knowing, there was another surprise that Diane was hiding from him until they finished their prototype.
A few months after they had begun, Walter and Diane had a finished prototype of their idea. A suit that would allow divers to go even further than a submarine could. This suit, with modifications they had planned if they got funding to make a second version, would be able to aid the diver in swimming faster and breathing fresh air longer. All of this had the organization’s head, Mister Benton, very intrigued. So much so that he granted them a green light on the project. So with the necessary funding, material, and extra hands, the duo began planning the development of the…
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“’Project Stingray’.”
”Why Stingray?”
“I’ve always had a love of the creature. They’re very much so like humans. Each has their own personality and their own distinct features. Stingrays are remarkable beings.”
”Alright, let’s do this.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The team focused on building one suit to showcase that they could indeed make this thing a reality. While this was going on, Diane let Walter in on a little secret she had kept from him for almost a month. This was the fact that she was pregnant. Walter became overjoyed and ran through the building’s corridors screaming and jumping for joy. He was happier than he had ever been… unfortunately, happier than he would ever be…
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“The Stingray suit, built to last in the depths of the ocean. The world record for the deepest human dive is just over a thousand feet, and with the aid of this suit you can go double or even triple that. The lightweight material this armor is made of can survive the extreme pressures of the deep blue.” Diane says as she unveils a red and black diving suit. She looks over at her boss and smiled as his mouth was wide open in shock.
“That’s impressive. We know that for sure?” Mister Benton replies with slight concern.
“Well…” Diane begins to speak but is cut off by Walter.
”Well we’ve yet to test it, but there’s a very slim chance that our calculations are off.”
“I want it tested before I pitch this to the board.” Mister Benton turns around and walks out of the lab.
“Alright, let's do... (cough! Cough!)” Diane walks over to a table while suffering a coughing fit.
”Are you okay?” Walter says as he places his hand on his fiancé’s back.
“Yeah, it’s just my... (cough!)”
”We’ve got to get you home.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
”So that’s why I’m doing this.” Walter said to his boss with a muffled sigh.
“Doing what?” His boss quickly answered.
”Why I’m leaving.” Walter took a deep breath as he held back tears. ”I’m taking an early leave to be with my wife. She’s dying and I need to be with her.”
“Y’know you can still work here, right?” Benton says as he stands up from his chair and walks over to the side of the desk Walter sits at.
”I know.” Walter looks down at his shoes. ”I just want to be with her right now.”
“I understand. Listen, if… when you want to come back, you’ve got your job.” Mister Benton outreaches his hand and smiles as Walter takes his hand and shakes it firmly.
”Th-thanks.” Walter says as he gets up from his seat and makes his way to the door. He pauses just before the door and turns around as Mister Benson speaks.
“Good-bye, Mister Newell.”
”Good-bye.” Walter opens the door and leaves. He begins his drive back to his house to be with his newborn child and his ill wife. Just as everything began to feel right, it all went wrong…
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
”Take his wife. That’ll give him reason enough to continue his work.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
(NOTES:)
"Who the heck is Stingray?" You may be asking. Well, that's a fair question. I'll tell ya who he is.
He's a character that I think doesn't get as much love as he could. Sure he showed up in Deadpool's "heroes for money" run, but I wanted to show him some real good love. Perfect explanation, right? Thought so...
I actually planned to introduce him in Deadpool but since I dropped Deadpool I decided I would make him my new role (hopefully).
So I hope y'all enjoy this and I hope I get the role. :D
This is one of two photographs from 2002 showing Louis Sanderson motor engineers toward the end of it's time operating under the family name which dates back to the 1930's.
I'm assuming fuel sales ended at least five years prior to this photo being taken when there was still quite a high demand for four star petrol. I do believe the three pumps on show are Gilbarco highlines dating back from the 1970's which appear to all have panels for selecting different grades of petrol so I'm almost certain that 2/3/4 star petrol would have been available at one point.
There appears to be two older pumps one of the left of the forecourt and the other on the right under the floodlight which were probably diesel pumps but cannon confirm this.
I'm not sure if the garage was still trading around this time despite two cars on the forecourt.
Today this is Mellors Garage which has operated under this name since 2005/2006

Trundling through the Birmingham suburb, 66723 Chinook leads 6G54 Lifford West Junction to Bescot Up Engineers Sidings.
Not for the first time this year, but still a rare sight these days - a Class 60 on an engineers' train as GB Railfreight's 60076 "Dunbar" pairs up with Class 66, 66771 on a rail drop train for an overnight possession in the Hazel Grove area.
The Brush Traction machine was leading for the return run, powering through Acton Bridge on a crisp and chilly Sunday morning as 6G49 07:38 Stockport Edgeley Junction No 1 to Crewe Basford Hall SSM.
Built in 1916, following the sinking of The Titanic in 1912, to commemorate all the marine engineers who died in shipping disasters.

A man behind the machine. He's not saving lives like our doctors, or teaching the next generation of kids like our teachers. He doesn't provide entertainment for an entire population by acting, singing, dancing, or playing a sport. He simply moves all of the goods our population needs, so everyone else can live their desired lives. He moves the food that sits at your table, he moves medications for you to stay healthy, and he moves all of the various products you use to have fun and enjoy your life. He has given up the option of a 9-5 work day to be on-call 24/7, 365 days a year. One day he will be watching the sunrise during his shift, the next day, he will watch it set. Some of those 12 hour days he will watch both. It is the overlooked people like him who help keep our nation moving forward every single day.
South Shore Engineer Paul Barnes has 33's controller on the post as we head to Chicago in April 1975.
Paul had quite a career with the South Shore. He started in 1939 in the B&B dept. then off to WWll in the Navy, came back in 1945 as a collector. He went off to Korea and came back in 1953 and entered Engine Service, and worked freight for 10 years straight. He ran everything the South Shore had, from Steeple Cabs to 700's, 800's Orange cars and made the transition to the new cars and retired in 1988. He passed away a few years ago. A real Railroader!
