In an age when air pollution is a big concern to our health, many people don't have other options other than to use wood for heating or cooking.

47538 storms through Barnt Green heading for Birmingham with an train formed of a Mark IIabc Brake Second Open (BSO) leading five Mark IIdef Open Seconds (TSO), a Mark I catering vehicle and what appears to be two more Mark IIdef Open Seconds (TSO), 14th April 1979. With the absence of any first class vehicles and the number of people hanging out of the windows I suspect that this is an excursion train of some description although the use of air conditioned coaching stock rather counters this.

 

Locomotive History

Built at Crewe as D1669 it entered traffic in March 1965 allocated to Landore. It was named Python in March 1966 and would remain a Western Region engine until transferred to the London Midland Region (Bescot) in September 1974. It was allocated 47084 under the 1973 TOPS renumbering scheme, but was never carried as it was fitted with electric train heating equipment and renumbered 47538 (losing the Python nameplates) in November 1974. It would remain a London Midland Region engine for the next thirteen years with spells at Crewe and Kingmoor before transfer back to the Western Region in November 1987 (Bristol). In July 1990 47538 was involved in a collision with 08801 at Penzance and although only sustaining superficial damage 47538 was, after a period in store at Exeter, withdrawn in September 1990. Following its withdrawal, 47538 was towed to Devonport dockyard (Plymouth) and used as a testbed for overhauled power units. In February 1993 it was dragged to Crewe works, where after a few months dumped it was used to transfer power units from Crewe works to Crewe MPD. For this purpose it was allocated departmental stock number ADB968035, a number which it carried, along with 47538. It continued to be used within the confines of Crewe works until December 1995, when it use ceased and it was again dumped until finally being broken up on site in March 1997 by MRJ Phillips.

Das Heizkraftwerk West mit seinen 1989 fertiggestellten Blöcken 2 und 3 bildet bis heute die Grundlage der Frankfurter Stromversorgung und verfügt über eine eigene Anlegestelle und wird noch immer über den Main per Schiff mit Kohle beliefert. Bemerkenswert ist die technische Einrichtung der Anlegestelle mit einem Kran, der mittels einer archimedischen Schraube in seinem Rüssel die feingemahlene Kohle aus den Schiffen befördert. Über ein Förderband gelangt die Kohle durch die Bürogebäude des Westhafen Piers in das Kraftwerk. (Quelle: Wikipedia)

Yep, underfloor heating is nothing new, the romans were doing it 2000 years ago!Here you see the columns that supported the floor, there would have been hot water from the hot spring running through here heating the supported floor above the columns

Maxwell mit seinem unergründlichen Blick! - Maxwell, looking bottomless!

Here’s my setup for C41 color film developing. I bought a temperature controller and set it to 107 degrees with a one degree temperature variation (107 degrees setting brings liquid in containers to 100 degrees). I also bought a crock-pot at the good will. I place the developer, blix and a bottle of water in crock-pot and plug in temperature controller. I add hot tap water to crock-pot. I go away and come back in an hour and the liquid in the bottles is about 100 degrees. I then remove the plain water bottle and place it in a 2 liter mixing bowl filled with hot tap water and wait until temperature rises to 102 degrees. I pour water into film developing tank and place tank into crock pot. I remove the developer and place it in 2 liter mixing bowl with hot tap water and monitor temperature until it is 102 degrees (takes only a minute or two). I remove the developer, pour out the water in the film developing tank and place tank in crock-pot. You then fill the tank with film developer. I use the little rod to agitate film according to directions instead of inversions (3.5 minutes). At end of development time I dump developer back into its bottle and pour in the blix and agitate using rod. At end of blix time (6.5 minutes) I pour blix back into its bottle and rinse film using tap water for 3 minutes. You then pour the stabilizer in to film tank and agitate for ten seconds, pour stabilizer back into its bottle and hang film to dry. Your done.

 

On my first C-41 development I had a hard time maintaining uniform temperature and the blix leaked from the tank (I did inversions of tank). The water bath setup gets all chemicals to almost the same temperature and minimizes aggravation trying to get developer to exactly 102 degrees. The blix needs to be between 95 and 105 degrees so the water bath takes care of it. By using the rod to agitate the film and not doing inversions the pressure from the blix does not build up and cause the top to leak.

 

The biggest remaining problem is that the film chemistry once mixed has a short shelf life. Since a one liter package is supposed to develop 8 rolls of film I have to hold my undeveloped film until I have 8 rolls ready to develop. This time around I did six rolls. I had planned to wait until I had 8 rolls, but caved and decided to go ahead and develop at six rolls. Since then I have developed 3 more rolls for a total of nine rolls. Ninth rolls color is fine, so, I may go for ten rolls.

South Australia Gas Company Bowden.

This company was formed in 1861 and the works started on Chief Street in Bowden in 1863 to provide gas supplies for street and domestic lighting and in some cases heating. Gas works were associated with coal supplies as the coal was heated in an environment with no air to release gases of hydrogen, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and natural gas and steam. The process to obtain gas was hard, hot, dirty and odiferous. The process involved crushing the coal, condescending, pumping, removing tar, washing, drying, cleaning, purifying, blending and storing etc. It was then piped to the location of use. The streets of Adelaide and Brompton were the first lit in the colony in 1865. As demand grew the gas works grew until it covered several acres with numerous buildings and equipment. During World War Two the South Australian government was concerned about coal strikes and limited supplies of black coal arriving from New South Wales which caused power shortages and eventually led to the formation of the South Australian Electricity Supply Company – ETSA. Gas production at the Bowden plant ceased in 1965.
