Meet Christine, one of my long-time roommates. She's an electrical engineer, so you can imagine the house being full of nerdy remarks. In fact, her boyfriend is quite possibly the most unique person (to put it gently) I've ever met. If any of you have watched The Big Bang Theory, they're exactly like that. Let's just say that I even have my own little "Sheldon" friend (not as OCD crazy, but the personality and randomness is very similar) -> Christine's boyfriend. "Sheldon" likes to pollute my Facebook wall w/ miscellaneous comic book strips & pictures that he finds funny. They are actually quite funny too haha. I always hear random tantrums and facts about trains & their power generators to programming to playing Diablo to quantum physics to... you get the idea. Everytime I came home, I'd come back to something very different and hilarious. Hardcore nerds. These people make living fun. Lol.

 

Christine is probably the most sane out of all them... :P

I reverse-engineered this from Ralph Savelsberg's Lego F-4. Why? Because I wanted one! Ralph has been quite clear that he doesn't sell or provide instructions to his models, but he DOES provide numerous detailed photographs from which one can see how it is put together. So just for the record, this is MY version of RALPH'S design. I did have to make some changes because I either didn't have the same parts he used, or didn't understand how he managed to do what he did. The exterior is the easy part, but the internals were a complete guess.

 

This is the second model of Ralph's that I managed to reverse-engineer, and it took me about 6 months to do it. Mine shows a hodge-podge of parts since that is what I had on hand, and I didn't go too far out of my way to create a specific version of Phantom, mine being what I consider "generic". I really wanted a Lego Phantom and here 'tis. Turns out there are lots of Lego Phantoms out there, but for my interest in Cold War aviation, Ralph's version was perfect.

I was recently bequeathed a box of materials from an ex-colleague who had, for many years, worked for British Rail. There's an eclectic mix of items including this; a file of five notes originating in the Chief Civil Engineers Department of British Railways Southern Region and regarding the movement of an "electric Bo-Bo locomotive" in connection with the Festival of Britain 1951. The major exhibition of the Festival was, famously, on London's South Bank and various items of railway rolling stock, including a new aluminium bodied London Underground car, were exhibited. This file refers to one of the country's newest and most 'up to date' locomotives in that it was one of the batch of EM1 locomotives being constructed for the new Manchester - Sheffield Woodhead route, the long drawn out electrification of which was on the verge of completion.

 

The scheme had been planned pre-war by the London & North Eastern Railway as an extensive re-engineering of the then important route across the Pennines but the outbreak of war saw the scheme temporarily suspended. One locomotive was however completed at Doncaster number 6701 (later 6000) and in post-war years was lent to the Dutch Railways. Finally between 1950 and 1953 57 similar locomotives, now known as class EM1 and for freight use, were built at Manchester's Gorton Works and electrically completed by Metropolitan-Vickers at Dunkinfield. You can see in the files that the special train including the locomotive was attended by MV staff.

 

The locomotive chosen for exhibition was 26020 (in later BR TOPS years 76020) and it was fitted with stainless steel handrails to make it look the part, a feature it uniquely retained amongst the rest of class. 26020 was in fact chosen for preservation when the class was withdrawn went the Woodhead electrification was controversially abandoned by BR in 1981. The seven locomotives of the smaller Class EM2 Co-Co locomotives for passenger train use were sold to NS, the Dutch Railway operator.

 

The notes show a fascinating side to railway operations; that of the civil engineer as they had to compute that any route chosen was safe, structurally and in terms of gauge, for the locomotive and train to proceed across the Region's lines. As can be seen originally two routes were considered, some rejected and others suggested, until a route was cleared. It does not make clear which route was eventually traversed to the old turntable site adjacent to London Waterloo but it appears the pantographs were removed to facilitate overhead clearances.

 

The route back at the close of the Exhibition is given more succinctly; a route around South London was chosen through London Bridge, Norbury, Clapham Junction, Battersea and on to the Western Region (for their consideration) near Latchmere Junction for haulage on to the 'owners' the Eastern Region at Ilford Depot. The latter is noteworthy as Iiford was part of the other pre-war LNER electrication scheme at the soon to be 'abandoned' standard of 1500vDC and the Shenfield line had been used to test some of the EM1 locomotives on delivery in 1950/51 prior to the completion of the Woodhead route's electrification in 1952.

  

One name here stands out to me; that of V A M Robertson. He had been a senior engineer in the Underground Group and London Transport from 1928 until 1938 when he went to the Southern Railway and thence to British Railways.

Carte de visite by Winans of Independence, Mo. This party of engineers worked on the W.K.C. & N.W.R.R. at some point relatively soon after the war. It is possible that some or all of these men were veterans from the U.S. and/or C.S. armies. The abbreviation may be for the Western Kansas Central & Norfolk and Western Rail Road, which ran just south of Independence, the home gallery of the photographer. The numbers at the bottom correspond to names written in pencil on the back of the mount. My best effort at transcribing them is:

 

1. J.M. Mitchell, Chf. Eng.

2. J. Scoring, Principal Afst.

3. J. Dunlap, Afst.

4. C.H. Sawyer, level

5. T. Moran, Axe

6. W. March, Rod

7. Asa French, level

8. J. Hays, Chairman

9. H. Rew

10. W. Smith, Surveyor

In the Acoustic Vibration Lab at Lockheed Martin’s Space Systems Company headquarters in Littleton, CO, engineers have begun a series of vibration tests on the astronauts’ display console for Exploration Mission-1.

 

Pictured here is a mass simulator of the display console mounted with six isolation struts to two shaker tables.

 

The shaker tables will simulate the harsh environments experienced by the console during different mission events such as liftoff, ascent, abort, landing, and drogue parachute mortar firing.

 

The data from these tests will be used to evaluate the console’s vibration and movement, as well as the performance of the isolation struts.

Offered in the US from model year 1997 to 2001, the Catera was a badge-engineered Opel Omega made in Rüsselsheim, Germany.

 

The advertisements for it featured supermodel Cindy Crawford speaking to an animated duck-like character anmed 'Ziggy', who lasted maybe 2 years.

 

It wasn't derided as much as GM's earlier, badge-engineered Cadillac Cimarron was, a car that was easily recognized that it had the same body as the economy Chevrolet Cavalier except with Caddy end caps. But the Catera wasn't a great seller, either, finishing its run of 5 years as a single-run model.

 

The one depicted has apparently survived and looks to be in very good condition.

31311 stands wrong line with a ballast train at Barnsley on very dull 5th June 1983. The two nearest lines served a parcels depot which had closed a couple of years previously. The shunting was usually in charge of a DMU that dropped off a a parcels van on the 18.00 from Sheffield to Barnsley if I recall correctly.

 

The line nearest also served the good shed on the left by means of a head shunt behind the photographer.

Sapucai was the centre of the Paraguayan railway system, where all the rolling stock was serviced and maintained, largely by British engineers who, in 1905, built a quaint 'English village' of cottages for the workforce. Some of these cottages remain, alongside the spectacularly rusting and rotting railway yards. This was high on my list of places to see in Paraguay and it didn't disappoint. (Photo Andrea Turner)
