A view of a rusted hinge on a door.
I wished to capture the varying shades of the wood and rust in this shot, as well as the various contrasting lines and shapes
BAGS (Argentina) 4-6-0 steam locomotive with a passenger train. This was one of repeat orders from Beyer Peacock. Note the locomotive's upwards hinged buffers. Exact date and location unknown, but the two-axle wagon immediately behind the locomotive, which seems to be a wagon for carrying extra water for the locomotive, could be a clue. The entire BAGS network runs through the Pampa region where there is plenty of water. The only exception is the line that runs west from Bahía Blanca to the Alto Valle del Rio Negro and Zapala, passing through completely deserted stretches where there is no water. The photo may have been taken on that line and the type of vegetation seems to correspond to that of the Alto Valle, especially the poplars
Included in BAGS's fleet of Beyer Peacock locomotives were Nrs. 316 - 361, 426 - 445, 377 - 386, 446 - 455, and 250 - 259
The Buenos Aires Great Southern Railway (BAGS) (Spanish: Ferrocarril del Sud) was one of the Big Four broad gauge (1,676 mm) British-owned companies that built and operated railway networks in Argentina. The company was founded in 1862 and the first general manager was Edward Banfield after whom the Buenos Aires suburban station of Banfield was named, when it opened in 1873. After president Perón nationalized the Argentine railway network in 1948, it became part of the state-owned company Ferrocarril General Roca

The hinge brick is quite loose and moveable with this set up, though it does not fall off. It does slide up and down easily to a small degree. The top plate with arm up has to be slid in at an angle, but it does not take much pressure to do so. I think it's better than attempting to push it directly into the clip on the hing brick as it creates little stress.

The immobile part of a brass hinge. On my side is the earth. On the other is a 2 foot drop from the bottom of the door to the surface of the sea. The water is shallow, with a gravelly bottom. The door is long gone.

(42.365) For some reason I fell behind in my posting of the 365 project, so tonight while stuffed full of turkey on the couch I'm playing catch-up. Here's post one of three.
