Sunday morning on London's Fleet Street. Beautiful day and very quiet. Spotted these two cyclists speeding down the road and tried to catch a shot. I love London.

Die Hamburger Fleete sind zum Teil aus den Mündungsarmen von Alster und Bille in die Elbe hervorgegangen, die dann zur Entwässerung und als Stadtgräben zur Verteidigung genutzt wurden; zum anderen Teil wurden sie als weitere Überlaufgräben der später aufgestauten Alster angelegt. Schließlich dienten die Fleete zunehmend dem Warenverkehr.
A pair of sharp GEs were departing Fort Madison with a fresh crew aboard the KCHRI in the glory days of the dearly departed Santa Fe.
This is how I would like to remember the Super Fleet.
The Parish Church of Saint Mary Magdalene
The fenland parish of Fleet sits in the south Lincolnshire fens just off the busy A17 trunk road and about 8 miles east of the market town of Spalding. At nearly 12 miles long but only 2 miles at it's widest, the settlement filtered northwards as land was reclaimed from this former tidal inlet. Once surpassing Spalding in population and wealth, Fleet was the focus of Templar activities in medieval times with a yearly fair and vigorous market for centuries.
The Grade I listed Anglican church, dating from the late 12th century, is dedicated to St Mary Magdalene. The 120 feet church tower with spire is like many medieval fenland churches and is detached from the nave by 15 feet. The exterior is mainly Decorated in style, with Early English arcades and a Perpendicular west window. According to Cox (1916), the church was restored in 1860, when the chancel was rebuilt, although the canopied sedilia was retained.
On this icy gray winter morning the Alaska Railroad dispatched a "snow fleet" work extra consisting of GP40-2s 3008 and 3006 pushing Harsco/Jordan Spreader 9 south to Portage to begin opening up the railroad to Seward. The southern end of the ARR's mainline had been out of service since the last coal train ran but was being prepped for some lumber trains from Seward later in the month. There is no snow to move here as they wind along Turnagain Arm near MP 82.5 just north of Rainbow Siding but in 25 or so miles they will be deep into it cleaning the pass through the Kenai Mountains over Grandview Summit.
The skies would clear a little later and I'd capture one of my all time favorite Alaska Railroad shots. If you missed it you can see it here: flic.kr/p/2i5vxs9

The three stars at Penn's Landing in Philadelphia: the 1902 cast-iron tug, Jupiter; the USS Olympia, hero of the Spanish-American War, and the barque Moshulu, a floating restaurant, all moored near where William Penn landed in his "greene country towne." The tug gets to roam around for periodic parades and rides; the others are permanently fixed in place.
The Manorway Fleet runs from nowhere in particular to somewhere else. It’s fortunes are inextricably linked to the nearby River Thames and prevailing weather, but it was certainly glorious this morning.
Somewhere in this scene should be a small black dog, but don’t strain your eyes too much looking for him….

My 1983 Ford Sierra 1.6 L
The 'biege thing' we call it. The project Sierra has sat for a month if not more being unused. Most set backs have been due to a limited parts supply. Despite sitting, the Sierra bursts into life with every key turn, it's much more eager than my low mileage example. Running lumpy when cold, once warmed up the engine is fantastic - it's definitely a car that wants to live.
There's a question mark over what to do with the beige Sierra. Now that the red Sierra wants for a couple hundred pounds thrown at it, I feel it should receive my immediate attention instead in order to preserve its condition. Whist financially doable, if push comes to shove I may sell this car - of course, most reluctantly. This car is in no way replaceable..
In an ideal world I think I'd like to push this into a garage and return to it in a year when I'm not juggling Uni, my new job, what to do with the Getz and putting money into the red Sierra instead.

A pair of New York City Transit GE 45 Tonners (numbers 66 and 50) in charge of a work train catch the evening light as they pause over the Jamaica Bay. The train is near JFK airport between Howard Beach and Broad Channel. These locomotives are workhorses, with some in the fleet being 54 years old by now. Engine 66 was built between 1974 and 1975 while number 50 is well over 50 years old with a build date of 1965! Queens, NY
