The Industrial Revolution bought lots of innovation to many sectors. The large steam driven flywheels, traction engines and trains have given way to electrified trains and then individual cars. The size of components have shrunk and hopefully, with modern electric cars fewer components and greater efficiency promises.
During the various stages of the Industrial Revolution there were people who severely resisted change. We are in another moment at this time both politically and socially. Unfortunately, nostalgia may not help meet the challenges ahead. History, though can bring interesting perspectives.
The photo is a montage of a model train & railway and various flywheels used. HMMM

An entrepreneur has come up with these boxes to prevent porch pirates... This one block in Bed Stuy had four of them (three in this picture). Not nearly as ubiquitous as the "Red Claw" steering wheel locks of the 1990s, but definitely a presence. And in an age where people make more use of online shopping and maybe even getting medicine through the post, it makes sense.

Park Street Avenue is a shortcut between Park Street on the left and Park Row on the right, and is one I've taken many times over the last fifty years.

Platform 6 at Purley station has recently gained three posters celebrating people who had local connections to Purley and Croydon. The posters are titled 'Welcome to Purley, Croydon', 'Innovate' and 'Inspire' and celebrate Amy Johnson, Samuel Coleride-Taylor and William Jessop.
The artworks were commissioned by Purley Business Improvement District and were made by local artists Kevin Zuchowski-Morrison, Dan Cimmermann and Morgan Davy.
Amy Johnson achieved worldwide recognition when, on 5th May 1930, she became the first woman to fly solo from the now closed Croydon Airport to Australia. Flying G-AAAH Jason, she landed at Darwin, Northern Territory on 24 May.
The composer Samuel Coleridge-Taylor was brought up in Croydon. He studied at the Royal College of Music. After completing his degree, Taylor became a professional musician, soon being appointed a professor at the Crystal Palace School of Music; and conducting the orchestra at the Croydon Conservatoire.
In 1801 Civil Engineer William Jessop was appointed Chief Engineer of the horse drawn Surrey Iron Railway from Wandsworth to Croydon. In 1803 the next phase of tramway was authorised south from Croydon towards Merstham and Godstone. Jessop was again appointed Chief Engineer. The line reached Mestham but was never continued to Godstone.

INNOVATION
One might be forgiven in thinking that diesel and electric traction first appeared on Britain's railways in the 1950s, after all it was the Modernisation Plan of 1955 which ushered in the era of diesel multiple units (D.M.Us.) along with diesel and electric locomotives which were intended to replace steam. But one would be wrong. Even before World War Two the Southern Railway (S.R.) had electrified some of its system in South-East England such that even the famous Brighton Belle was electric powered from 1933. The London Midland and Scottish Railway (L.M.S.) had diesel shunters in the 1930s and in 1947, in one of its last acts before nationalisation, introduced two diesel express locomotives numbered 10000 and 10001
The Great Western Railway (G.W.R.) began experimenting with diesel railcars in 1933 some of which found their way onto the West Midlands system. Originally resplendent in G.W.R. colours of 'Chocolate and Cream' they were, following nationalisation, converted to carmine (red) and cream. Unit W14W, shown here at Dudley, will have travelled from Birmingham Snow Hill via the main Wolverhampton Low Level line before diverging at Swan Village. Such units also used to run along the entire length of the Seven Valley line from Shrewsbury to Kidderminster before, in truncated form it become a heritage railway. Strange perhaps that they had all gone by the time dieselization had got under way in earnest. They were ahead of their time. They didn’t need to be shunted to the opposite end of a set of coaches to make a return trip or turned on a turntable, the driver just got off his cab at one end of the unit and drove back from the cab at the other end. So simple,why wasn't it thought of before? It was, in 1933.
