The Fleet Cottage Hospital, which later became the Fleet and District Hospital, was opened in 1897 after money had been raised by local subscription.
Most people have at one time or another heard Chicago's downtown referred to as "the Loop." A lot of people from Outside think this includes all the downtown skyscraper zone, but from an official standpoint, it's only the section of downtown south and east of the Chicago River. And if you want to get hyper-technical, it's only the portion of downtown contained within the rectangle path of these elevated railways, the area bounded by Lake, Wabash, Van Buren, and Wells. Some historians say the name originated with a set of street cars that followed the same path in the mid-to-late 19th century, but the Chicago Transit Authority says the name didn't take hold until these elevated tracks were built between 1895 and 1897. The Loop tracks finally connected a number of separate elevated lines that radiated from downtown into the neighborhoods in several directions and had been operating for about 20 years.
The old cars seen here are the only two remaining examples of the 4000-series cars, which operated on CTA lines from 1914 until 1973. They were built in Cincinnati, Ohio, and were the first electric-driven steel-frame cars CTA operated, replacing wooden cars pulled by little steam locomotives. Originally, the doors were manual and needed to be operated by a conductor, who rode between the cars and hopped off at every stop to open them from the outside, but eventually the cars were all retrofitted with mechanism that let conductors open them all from one interior control. The cars weren't air-conditioned, of course, but you could pull down the sash windows if you wanted. If a driver really wanted to push things, he could get one of these up to 45 mph, but they usually ambled along just above walking speed. In that respect, they're just like a modern CTA train.
Side note: I did something really petty in Photoshop with this picture just to see if I could, and it turned out better than I'd expected. I think only Chicago people will see it, but I'm betting Robin will pick it up if she knows to look for it. Let's see.

Royal Navy in the Far East & Pacific
At the start of hostilities with Japan, the Royal Navy's Eastern Fleet headquartered in Singapore took heavy losses in attempting to protect British and Dutch colonies. While attempting to stop the invasion of Malaya, on December 10, 1941 the battleship HMS Prince of Wales and battlecruiser HMS Repulse were sunk by Japanese land based aircraft. In April 1942, Japanese carriers raided the Indian Ocean and Ceylon sinking several vessels including the aircraft carrier HMS Hermes and the cruisers HMS Cornwall and Dorsetshire. After the raid, the Eastern fleet retreated to the east coast of Africa.
As naval commitments in Europe lessened, modern aircraft carriers and battleships were reassigned to the Eastern Fleet. The Eastern Fleet worked with US Navy elements conducting operations in the Dutch East Indies and New Guinea.
In November 1944, the British Pacific Fleet was formed to work in conjunction with the United States Pacific Fleet. At the core of the fleet were six modern fleet carriers and four light carriers supported by modern battleships, cruisers, destroyers, tankers, and supply ships. The Pacific Fleet took part in the Invasion of Okinawa, strikes against the Japanese mainland, and was present at the Japanese surrender.
Royal Navy Fleet Air Arm
Officer Battledress Uniform
in 1943, the Royal Navy introduced a standardized battledress uniform made of blue serge wool, with rank shoulder boards, and gold gilt brass buttons. The uniform was usually worn with a white shirt and a black tie. This uniform has the rank braid of a lieutenant on its shoulders. This pilot is wearing a standard Fleet Air Arm flying kit, including a Type 1941 Life Vest, a Naval C-Type Leather Flying Helmet with zip ear covers, a G-Type Oxygen Mask, Mk Vill Flying Goggles, and Type D Flying Gauntlets.
Fleet Week comes to NYC 5/26-6/2. Liberty and Ellis Islands are a great place to watch the big ships cruise by.

RD8923. Not for this world much longer.
Fleet Station on the South Western Main Line from London Waterloo is being rebuilt. This has included a new covered footbridge with lifts as well as steps so the faithful old open footbridge will soon be removed. This shows it while it was still in use on the 26th April, 2014.
The new station building is taking shape on the far (down) platform.
