Meßberghof - Hamburg
(1924 - 1938 Ballinhaus)
Das Gebäude wurde von 1922 bis 1924 nach Entwürfen der Architekten Hans und Oskar Gerson für die Aktiengesellschaft für In- und Auslandsunternehmungen errichtet und nach dem 1918 verstorbenen Hamburger Reeder Albert Ballin benannt.
The building was built from 1922 to 1924 based on designs by the architects Hans and Oskar Gerson for the stock corporation for domestic and foreign companies and was named after the Hamburg shipowner Albert Ballin, who died in 1918.
A malicious barren place, the desert holds nothing, promises nothing. I dare not have expectations. No matter how foreign the land may seem, it is I who is foreign.
What a unique vehicle! I'd never seen anything like it. In the earlier days of modern invention there were lots of ideas about how to do things. This was one of them.
Like most of the vehicles at this museum, it runs. Here a video of it.

October 2, 2021 - Went to Jeff Lane Motor Museum in Nashvile, Tennessee. This place is fantastic! Over 500 vehicles. I've been to one of the best car museums in the U.S., Petersen Auto Museum in L.A. but this one is right up there with it. Specializes in foreign cars and unique vehicles. Half of these I'd never seen or heard of. Well worth going to.

A Chicago & North Western SD40-2, Nevada Northern SD7, and Western Pacific U23B find themselves in Union Pacific's Riverdale Yard in Ogden, Utah. Doug deserves a prize for catch of the year.

Interesting thing about Finland's participation in WWII is it was the only democratic country to be on the side of the Axis powers. As part of Finland's participation in WWII (Continuation war), the Finns during operations Barbarossa retook and captured areas in the Karelia region.
Wanted to try out a bunker as there were many that were along several defensive lines in Finland and the Karelia region. Credit for the trees goes to Thorsten Bonsch.
A CN crude ore train using two BNSF HP payback units is shown dumping at Fairlane as Northern Plains GP9 1520 switches the commercial yard. NPR's switching subsidiary handles commercial traffic here.
A Norfolk Southern SD70ACC No. 1823 makes a really rare appearance leading a high priority BNSF Intermodal train rolling past Monument, Colorado.
As a child, I always ate my hard boiled eggs out of this cup.

During the Winter of 2012-13 the Canadian National RR started using lots of locomotives from other railroads. I was going thru a backup hard drive, updating directory names etc and came across this photo set. I literally had unboxed my new (at the time) D5100 the previous day, and went out with Mark Llanuza during one of the rare snow storms that winter to shoot this M337 (I think) train running under the old EJ&E flyover in Wayne, IL Those were the days....
This is the former building of the Romanian Securitate. The Securitate, Romanian for Security (official full name Departamentul Securității Statului, Department of State Security) was the secret service of Communist Romania. After the fall of Communist Romania in 1989 the building was demolished by protesters but the lower remaining site survived. From 2003-2007 the building was redesigned and rebuilt (by architects Dan Marin and Zeno Bogdănescu) and the ruin is preserved as a memorial to the Revolution.
Today it houses the Union of Romanian Architects. (and McKinsey & Company)
CSX G685 passes the signals of NE Englewood at 2:13am. Leading the way is NS 8105, one of the companies heritage units, with this one honoring the Interstate. While the NS ones are fairly common to see on NS leading around here, it’s extremely rare to see them on their east coast competitor. With the chance to get them at these signals being presented, I couldn’t take advantage of this opportunity. 1-27-24
