50050 "Fearless" turns on the ETH to the stock of 1V82 1023 Manchester to Penzance at Birmingham New Street on 22nd October 1981.
I saw plumes of smoke emitted and a rise in engine revs a few times when Fifites were coupled up and turned on the ETH, presumably some form of "compressor speed up" to raise the idle speed of the engine when powering the EH.

Eth Pokuna, Elephant Pond, Anuradhapura, Sri Lanka
This gigantic man-made pond is situated close to Lankaramaya. This is 159 meters in length 52.7 meters across and 9.5 meters in-depth with the holding capacity of 75,000 cubic meters of water.
The water in this pond is supplied from the Periyamkulama Tank through a network of underground canals, and you still can see part of the water lines made out of stone blocks.
These underground canals still work after so many hundreds years and in 1982 after a very heavy rainy season you could see water pouring though these inlets from the Periyamkulama tank.
This tank was probably used by the monks in the Abayagiri monastery (who amounted to over five thousand priests).
