47404 820428 Guide Bridge Light
When the HST's took over the main ECML services alot of loco's were displaced to other duties.
The Deltics were removed from service fairly smartly but the Class 47's had further use and were moverd to Gateshead and deployed on Trans-Pennine duties and were generally spruced up and most were given names related to the North East.
Here 47404 Hardian is seen leaving Guide Bridge having been refuelled on the nearby depot. 28th April 1982
TELSTAR LOGISTICS UNVEILS MODEL 442 SHAREHOLDER VALUE GENERATOR
New Device Converts Nebulous Energy into Tangible Results
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
SIERRA NEVADAS, Calif., 03-MAY-2006 Telstar Logistics is proud to announce the successful completion and deployment of the Model 442 Shareholder Value Generator, an event which marks the beginning of a new and more exciting era of production.
Installed underground in a remote mountain facility, Model 442 leverages innovations in Terrestrial Infiltration, Marine Buoyancy, and Aerospace Propulsion developed by Telstar Logistics while delivering our best-of-breed services.
Designed to provide stable, seamless solutions in any environment, the Shareholder Value Generator converts hybrid media energy into robust and scalable output. The impactful results quickly pay off where it matters most -- on the customer's bottom line.

47418 derailed at the top of platform 5 at Liverpool Lime Street on 5th August 1984.
I seem to recall the Brush was bringing in a set of ECS for a Pennine service. and it looks like a case of road-spread as it appears to have derailed on plain line. Not massively spectacular and the only indication it has derailed is the proximity of the engine to the stock on platform 6!
This was a pretty unlucky loco - it was involved in a collision at Lunan Bay in Scotland in October 1975 when 40011 assisted it in rear, and promptly collided with the train causing 38 injuries and one fatality. In June 1976 it ran into a load of derailed track panels near Laurencekirk and itself derailed, with one rail entering the cab, another puncturing the fuel tank and another entering the engine room!
Its luck finally ran out in August 1992 when it was withdrawn. The loco was scrapped at Frodingham in December 1995.
These are just some of the 74 generators in the Saint Marys Falls Hydropower Plant at the Soo. The plant is now operated by Cloverland Electric Cooperative.

From March till May 2014 Dutch artist Theo Jansen exhibits his stunning work of so-called 'Strandbeesten' at the E.ON Electriciteitsfabriek (Electricity Factory) in The Hague, the Netherlands.
In 1990, Theo Jansen (born 1948) began what he is known for today: building large mechanisms out of PVC that are able to move on their own, known as Strandbeest (Dutch: strand=beach; beest=beast). His animated works are a fusion of art and engineering. He strives to equip his creations with their own artificial intelligence so they can avoid obstacles by changing course when one is detected, such as the sea itself. What was at first a rudimentary breed has slowly evolved into a generation of machines that are able to react to their environment. Constructed as intricate assemblages of piping, wood, and wing-like sails, Jansen's creations are constantly being improved and have become excellently adapted to their sandy beach environment.

Op vrijdag 14 maart 2014 opende in de Electriciteitsfabriek de tentoonstelling "Generator Strandbeest" rond het werk van kunstenaar en uitvinder Theo Jansen. De expositie is een absolute aanrader! Tijdens de opening deed Kamerkoor Kwintessens uit Den Haag er nog een schepje magie bovenop en klonk het prachtige "Da pacem Domine" van Arvo Pärt in de gigantische turbinehal.
Theo Jansen is een Nederlandse kunstenaar-uitvinder die vooral bekendheid geniet vanwege zijn zogenaamde "Strandbeesten". Deze spectaculaire wezens zijn gebouwd van pvc-buizen en plastic flessen, en lijken echt te leven. Sinds 1990 probeert Theo Jansen in zijn kunst levende wezens zo goed mogelijk te benaderen. Het resultaat zijn reusachtige geraamtes gemaakt van vaak honderden pvc-buizen. De geraamtes bewegen op windenergie. Zij lopen op dezelfde manier als wezens uit de natuur.
Tot begin mei 2014 presenteert Jansen zijn werk in de industriële en poëtische turbinehal van de E.ON Electriciteitsfabriek in Den Haag, waar het maakproces van een nieuw Strandbeest van dichtbij te volgen is. In de hal construeert Jansen een groot, nieuw dier: de Animaris Suspendisse (10 x 4 meter, bij 4 meter hoog). Een uitgestrekte zandlaag vormt de werkvloer om het nieuwe beest uit te proberen. Zeven andere forse strandbeesten bewegen zich, aan de hand van een bezoeker, voort op de begane grond.
Als in een laboratorium experimenteert Jansen met electriciteisbuis, tape, tie-raps en patflessen. Al twintig jaar toetst Jansen de vernuftige proefjes om tot de techniek te komen waarmee ooit zijn kudde, misschien wel geheel zelfstandig, de duinen kan onderhouden. Een droom die hem drijft om door te zoeken naar nieuwe technieken en ontwikkelingen.
In de tentoonstelling "Generator Strandbeest", op de eerste verdieping van de fabriek, wordt een historisch overzicht getoond van de evolutie en het maakproces van de dieren aan de hand van een paleontologisch veld met fossielen. Film, foto’s en video materiaal lichten de ontstaansgeschiedenis toe. Openingstijden van de tentoonstelling zijn van vrijdag t/m zondag van 14:00 tot 22:00 uur. Dagelijks wordt er om 20:00 uur een rondleiding gegeven door Theo Jansen zelf.
Begin mei wordt de kudde, dan een dier rijker, uitgeleid naar zee waarna de dieren weer wind kunnen vangen en uitgelaten langs de kustlijn kunnen paraderen.
It did not stand there alone, I just take pic the nearest against the blue sky to note the chill feeling I had. There are a lot of wind turbines in China, they did not work not because of the technology nor policy but the low price of oil and weather sometime.

The Biriliphant
An impossible combination of hawk and elephant, the biriliphant can not fly. However, it can unseat a knight and knock down his horse with one flap of its wings.
Their preferred diet is made up of persimmons, late Autumn wheat, and knight’s squares under an enchantment.
Remember my old spider friend? (here it is) Well, I went back to my kitchen this morning, and it was still here, ready for a new posing session! This time I tried a focus stack, took 7 shots with different focus settings (yes, my model is very patient! :) ). I tried several solutions to combine them, but the best of these, both for quality of results and speed, was undoubtedly CombineZP, a free software created by Alan Hadley.

Oh yeah, oh yeah
Like the blood on my door
Wash me clean and I will run
Until I reach the shore
I've known it all along
Like the bone under my skin
Like actor's in a photograph
Like paper in the wind
There's a hammer by the window
There's a knife on the floor
Like turbines in darkness
Like the blood on my door
It's the generator
