Cloud Generator, Dolomites..
I remember this scene well from our place near Rifuggio Locatelli, the clouds just seem to come of this mountain ridge in the distance, and I remember how the early morning light caught the top of it, revealing the textures of the mountain face
I always was curious to know just how train cars got power if it wasn't supplied from a third rail or from the locomotive. Turns out its just a simple generator and a large battery pack.
CN 186 has nearly completed its long journey from Prince Rupert to Taschereau Yard in Montreal as it passes through Dorval.
People have asked how I built the shield generator. Here's the full technique. The outer uses 2x8 plates, with a 2x3 separating one end, and a 1x2-1x2 bracket attaching the curves (I tried using 1x2-1x4s, but the inner ring wouldn't fit on one side with them). Every fifth 2x8 plate has clips inserted to attach flex hose. The inner ring uses 1x4 plateswith a dot and bracked on one end, and a clip on the other. the clips are only half pressed in to their neighbours, so the spacing is 2Β½ plates at the inside end, and 3 plates at the outer end. Four inner segments are needed for every 5 outer segments. I did find the spacing of the inner segments slightly wider, so when building the full disc, it was necessary to sneak a few extra plates into the outer ring to compensate.
Hope this gives people enough to get started.
Sorry about the multi-coloured 2x8 plates - I used up all the grey ones!

Resplendent in BR Two-tone green, Brush Type 4 D1501 (AKA Class 47/4 47402 "Gateshead") arrives at Medstead and Four Marks station with a service bound for Alton on the Mid-Hants Railway/Watercress Line during the Diesel Gala. This was one of the original batch of 20 ETH fitted Class 47s
Solar generator with 300W pure sine AC output. 40W solar panels, 384Wh Li battery. charges in about a day of full sun. Fits in this milk crate or a slightly smaller standard one if I don't bring the large 20W panel. less than 22 pounds, and silent, a key design criteria. solar panels here. everything fits inside the crate, including the panels, which roll. see it stowed here.
I've been replaying Metal Gear Solid V recently, and it remains the world's greatest tactical kidnapping simulator. When you, uh... liberate a fellow soldier from the battlefield, the code name generator assigns them a unique moniker.
I've been waiting on this particular combination for a while, and the game finally gave it to me! I was so pumped, but then I looked at this guy's stats, which are terrible. But I'm keeping him, because that name is awesome.

The Generator is the business end of the hydro-electric system and is rotated by the turbine below, which produces the electricity to be sent to the main grid to be used by the consumer.
The Generators were made by General Electric Co limited from Peterborough, Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
