I saw these in the latest Vogue worn by Keira Knightley and knew that I absolutely needed a pair. They just arrived today. They're beautiful and I can't wait to wear them out!

66154 is seen heading east along the SAK line at Culross with 6X40 Stirling to Carlisle yard 'empty track panel carriers'. The SAK line saw a number of engineering trains over the weekend of 12/13th Sept in conjunction with on-going work at Larbert.
With the SAK line being effectively out of use between Charleston Jcn and Alloa the chance to once again photograph trains on the section was too good to miss even with the dismal weather.
60 006 'Scunthorpe Ironmaster' is seen having lost its British Steel blue livery applied in 1997 in favour of silver and black for the new owners of the steel company, Corus. The livery was changed when the Anglo-Dutch Hoogovens Steel Co. merged with British Steel Co. to form Corus. The train seen here is an engineers train 6K89 02.47 from Kingmoor Yard standing in a possession south of Lockerbie station during track renewal work.
I had a lucky escape with this loco as later the same year (02.10.2004) I should have been working it to Blea Moor on a night time ballast train from Kingmoor Yard when it caught fire near Helm Tunnel on train 6L85 and was extensively damaged as the fire brigade couldn't reach the remote location. My good fortune was the day before I had been asked by another driver to swap turns as he wanted a later start instead of a day shift on a Saturday so I obliged not knowing what fate was to befall him that night. He had to climb out of a cutting near Helm Tunnel on foot to raise the alarm by which time the loco was well alight. Needless to say it was never to work again being towed first to Thornaby TMD for assessment then moved to Toton TMD for indefinite storage.

DB Cargo UK Class 66, 66114 is seen passing Weston on the East Coast Mainline working top and tail on a Network Rail Engineers train.
As a young boy I fell in love with the 611 and now as a grown man I have the opportunity to enjoy running the locomotive.
Sunday engineering works at Chipping Sodbury resulted in 3 freights on Saturday evening for Network Rail from Hinksey within an hour with Freightliner traction, all of which passed Shrivenham within 20 mins of each other

The winter of 1930-31 was a bittersweet time for Howard Marmon. His pièce de resistance, the Marmon Sixteen, had debuted to great acclaim at the Chicago Auto Salon in November and the following month he received a medal for outstanding achievement from the Society of Automotive Engineers, awarded for the Sixteen’s magnificent engine. Although a second shift was added to the assembly line when full production began in April, there was trouble at the Marmon Motor Car Company. As with other luxury car makers, its profits had turned to deficits as the Depression deepened, and two rounds of pay cuts were followed by layoffs of most engineering staff. What had once been a bright future had become very, very uncertain.
Howard Carpenter Marmon was the son of an Indianapolis manufacturer of milling machinery. With an engineering degree from the University of California, he joined the family firm, becoming vice president and chief engineer within three years. Enamored of all types of machinery, he built a car of his own design, completed in 1902. Remarkable for its use of full pressure lubrication, it had an air-cooled power train with no universal joints, made possible by mounting the running gear on a separate subframe. He built six cars in 1904, unusual in their use of aluminum castings in their bodies, and sold them to neighbors.
By 1909, Marmon was in full production of water-cooled cars, including the Model 32 that would be built for seven years. In fact, it was a Model 32, called the “Wasp,” that garnered international acclaim for the company when it won the inaugural Indianapolis 500 in 1911. The Marmon 34 of 1916 made even greater use of aluminum, but teething problems with its design and Marmon’s lack of business acumen hindered sales. Marmons became more conventional during the 1920s, and the car operation was spun off from Nordyke and Marmon, the machinery firm. Although well built, Marmons were nearly indistinguishable from other prestige cars of the decade, and sales were mediocre.
In 1926, Howard Marmon began work on his masterpiece, a sixteen-cylinder luxury car. The heart of the new model was a compact even-firing 45-degree V16 of 491 cubic inches. Overhead valves were pushrod-operated, and the aluminum block had wet cylinder liners. Its operation was so smooth that a light flywheel was possible, which in turn facilitated rapid acceleration. The valve gear was carefully designed to be compact and well lubricated, making it nearly silent, despite mechanical adjustment. The Sixteen developed 200 brake horsepower, rode a chassis with a 145-inch wheelbase and was clothed in attractive Art Deco- inspired bodies.
Although the bodies were built by LeBaron, and carried LeBaron’s prestigious cowl tags, it was a father and son team of industrial designers who penned the car’s svelte lines. Credit is conventionally given to Walter Dorwin Teague Sr.; while it was his son who sketched the lines and details that ultimately entered production. A student at MIT, Walter Dorwin Teague Jr. was a gifted designer who would go on to design some of the most influential automobiles of his time.
Magnificent though it was, the Marmon Sixteen was not ready for production until early in 1931, by which time Cadillac’s V16 had been on the market for over a year. Initial prices were as low as $5,200, $750 less than the equivalent Cadillac, but Cadillac had a head start and the advantage of a larger business base. The first Marmon Sixteen customer did not take delivery until April 1931. For the year, just over 200 Sixteens were produced, out of some 5,700 total sales. The total for 1932 was just ten percent of an underwhelming 1,365 total cars, from which it seems odd that the eight cylinder cars were discontinued entirely for 1933. It is not hard to understand, though, that with just 86 Sixteens sold that year, about a third of which must have been leftover ‘32s, Marmon was in receivership by the first of May.
200bhp, 490.8 cu. in. overhead valve V16 engine, three-speed manual transmission, suspension via front and rear semi-elliptic leaf springs, solid front axle, live rear axle, four-wheel vacuum-assisted mechanical drum brakes. Wheelbase: 145"

This time I switched my position 90 degrees from the last shot posted to work on Engineer's south face with is the most well know mountain face in the San Juans. I have struggled to catch a good sunset with the cliff face saturated so I was happy.
There was a rain shower in the distance near Silverton which was more like a sunset shower with its redish illuminated glow.
