De 140 843 in de richting Venlo op 22 juli 1997 ten oosten van Boisheim bij een een 'Rufschranke', een uitstervend fenomeen. Wie de normaal gesloten overweg wil passeren, vaak een boer met zijn trekker, neemt via een intercom (de gele kastjes) contact op met de seinhuiswachter. Als de kust veilig is, zal hij de bomen op afstand openen.

Fredricks: (Intercom) "As Captain, of the USF Gallus, I declare the initiation our brave new mission. Godspeed Gallus."
Flowers: "Well said sir."
Fredricks: "To be honest, I wrote most of that in the bathroom a few minutes ago. So, what pressing matters do we have before we decide which direction to head in?"
Burns: "Col. Cade and Major Jett have been safely transported back to ADU and Shuttlecraft 021-WM-8 is safely secured. We're clear to pick up the Galactic Titan and venture forth among the stars."
Layana: "Captain, I have a Federation distress call coming from M-382."
Fredricks: "Well I'm curious, let's check it out. The Galactic Titan isn't going anywhere without us. Ensign Maru, let's light the fires. Set a course for M-382."

The Pittock Mansion is a French Renaissance-style château in the West Hills of Portland, Oregon, United States. It was built in 1914 as a private home for London-born Oregonian publisher Henry Pittock and his wife, Georgiana Burton Pittock. The mansion had many devices that were ahead of it's time including this intercom system.
This power station was built by the Intercom (now Electrabel) in 1921. Monceau sur Sambre was still an independent municipality and the new coal plant was one of the largest in Belgium. In the 50's and 60's, the plant was expanded and after Monceau sur Sambre in 1977 was added to the town of Charleroi this was the main supplier of energy in the region. Originally coal fired, the newer part ran on gas and stood for years standby for any emergencies. It was closed in 2007.
Es el viejo intercomunicador de mi casa... sonaba escandalosamente. Aqui en el edificio se les ocurrió cambiar el sistema. Ahora suena en el telefono y cuando suena se me va el internet, aparte es un codigo raro para cada apartamento... yo vivo en el apart 91 y el código es 34 (hay una lista en el tablero) pero la gente que va pal 34 siempre toca aquí...

The entry button on the intercom for the front door to the apartments.
I got Graham to help me with this one by holding the torch. I'd taken it yesterday but the ISO was way too high.
Oddly the light was totally different with the torch shining on it.
Thank you for your favourites. :O)
Construite en 1921, cette centrale thermique d'Electrabel (originalement Intercom) située en région wallonne produisait d’énormes quantités d’énergie à partir de charbon. Responsable de 10% des émissions de CO2 de Belgique à elle-seule, l’usine a été fermée définitivement en 2007. Étendue sur une dizaine d'hectares, cette centrale est notamment formée d'un bâtiment principal et d'une tour de refroidissement, auxquels se rajoutent des bâtiments administratifs et une annexe munie d'une turbine de secours construits dans les années 60. Aujourd'hui la propriété de la société WANTY, cette centrale et surtout sa tour de refroidissement sont la proie d'urbexeurs venant du monde entier.

Detail of unusual permanent coupling, including the intercom, of the DMU 592 series of five cars (9-592-025 + 8-592-014 + 9-592-026 + 8-592-021 + 9-592-031 ). It was formed by permanent attachment of a motor car and an intermediate trailer remaining of an DMU who had an accident with another normal DMU with three cars. You can see the entire train in www.flickr.com/photos/47704640@N02/8312848373/in/photostr.... (Image scanned from an original paper).

Fredricks: (Intercom) "It's not enough to simply show humility. We will continue to push our limits and demonstrate our ability to adapt to new challenges and new horizons. When this Galactic Alliance is forged, it will be the dawn of a new day for us all. So please, bear with me in this lengthy address. For now, as the only representatives of the Federation, I expect each and every one of you to give me your all, and I promise the same in return."
Shi'fah: "I hope you don't mind my dropping in. The red outfit suits you. Congratulations."
Frankie: "Thanks Princey. I'm just doing a little light maintenance on my gear what can I do you for?"
Shi'fah: "Interesting speech the Captain's giving. He's quite the visionary."
Frankie: Fredricks is a good guy and will be a great Captain. I mean hey, you guys got your moon base right? Seems like the universe is pretty square."
Shi'fah: "The universe may be square Frankie, but Blacktron has not forgotten what is due. I brought you a little gift, you know, in the name of peace. Enjoy."
Intercom: Attention! The mandatory STD warning has taken effect. Institute scientists, coursers and synths are required to remove all articles of clothing until the offended parties are isolated. Children are not required to participate. Suspicion will be levied against you if you ignore this warning, or lock yourselves in your quarters.
P5-C4: Is this some kind of prank?
R4-04: Nope! I'll bet you it was one of those damn Coursers. They're the only ones coming back from the surface.

Built in 1921, this Belgian thermal power plant of Electrabel (originally Intercom) produced enormous quantities of energy from coal. Responsible for 10% of the CO2 emissions in Belgium, the factory was definitively closed in 2007.
Spread on about ten hectares, the site is formed by the main building (with a recent and two old turbines), a cooling tower and the offices. Today, the power plant is the property of the WANTY company, and many urban explorers from all around the world come to see it (especially its cooling tower).

Fredricks: (Intercom) "Attention everyone. I'd like to take a moment to personally address all of you, the crew of the USF Gallus. I have no doubt you may have questions as to the recent events that have occurred. Lay your doubts to rest, I have a clear vision as to how we shall proceed in the future. The peace we have started with the Viridian Empire is but the first step in what I would like to call the Galactic Alliance."
Dr. Weathers: "Alright the nanomites are 87% finished repairing the fractures in your rib cage. The plasmoid gel has done wonders for healing your burns."
Cade: "I feel good as new thanks to your healing hands."
Dr. Weathers: "At ease soldier. Now, get plenty of rest for another seven days and you should be good as new. The nanomites will flush themselves out of your system on their own."
Cade: "So I'm going to pee tiny robots? Excellent. Gotta love technology huh?"
Jett: "Sir, if you're done flirting, we have to be going."
Cade: "So how long is the Gallus expected to be out of the area?"
Dr. Weathers: "No idea. The new Captain didn't give a timetable."
Cade: "Well you have my number."
It will never happen to me .
But when it does you’ll be a little confused, a little bemused, very stressed and incredibly embarrassed.
There is no need to worry though, because missing a flight happens to the best of us – even when there’s nobody to blame but yourself.
To most it is uncharted territory. Your first reaction will be that there must be something that can be done – stop the plane! Shut down the airport! – but as this sense of injustice and self-entitlement slowly dissipates, a feeling of complete helplessness washes over you as you realise there is nothing to be done.
The plane has taken off and you’re not on it.
First and foremost, you must notify a member of staff that you have missed your flight – which is, as you can imagine, not an altogether proud moment. He or she will then direct you towards a phone or intercom system. Note well: this is not your opportunity to get the pilot on the line and beg him to turn the aircraft around so there’s no point sprinting through the terminal like an idiot possessed. It is instead an opportunity for you to call for a member of the airline to come and have you “decontrolled”.
“If a passenger is air-side they have to be officially decontrolled as they in a secure, restricted zone,” explains a spokesperson from Monarch. “The Terminal manager and security have to be informed and the passenger is then escorted by a member of handling agent staff through arrivals.”
This is more tedious and embarrassing than it sounds, as it involves trudging through departures like a naughty school child, passing excited, punctual holidaymakers, before having to slink back through passport control (“but I never left?”) to emerge in the clearing of the arrivals hall in the cold light of day.
“If purchases have been made in the departure lounge, they will need to be declared to customs to ensure that the right tax has been paid,” explains a spokesperson from Gatwick Airport. Insult to injury.
And of course, if you have checked luggage, this would have been bundled off your plane and be waiting for you, alone, on a carousel.
Now that you’re decontrolled, you must consider your options.
First, head to the ticket desk for the airline you were due to fly with, where a member of staff should be able to help you see if there’s another flight to your destination that day.
Depending on who you are flying with, you may have to pay full price for a second flight, however some airlines might be able to help you out. Easyjet, for example, offers an £80 “rescue fee” if you are at the desk within two hours of your missed flight.

Without the keypad, this would have held an intercom's handset. If you are of a certain age, are keeping score, and want this thing rattling around in your head for a few hours, it was The Orlons, in 1962. One of three gold records for the group.

La iconica sala de visites penitenciaries (en aquest cas, de La Model) que tots hem vist en pel·licules i series on surten presons. Abans les reixes metal·liques permetien cert contacte, especialment rellevant per a parelles, pares i fills. Però ara tot s'ha blindat amb vidres gruixuts i interfons. Ho saben prou els presoners politics que formaren el gobern de la Generalitat fins el 2017!
La presó model s’inaugurà el 1904 i va tancar el 2017. Prácticament d’inici ja va perdre aquesta caracteristica de model amb el que fou disenyada (primer motí ja al 1906), i la sobrepoblació de presoners fou constant, així com unes condicions generalment deplorables. Disenyada per a 1000 presos, al 1940 arribà als 13.000! No només és un punt historic per la historia criminal de Catalunya, sino també com a element esencial en la represió política, molt en especialment per part del regim feixista. Nombroses persones foren executades o partiren cap a la seva execució des de la Model (unes 1600). El més famós executat de tots, el darrer, Salvador Puig Antich.
Ara s’ha obert al public i es pot visitar lliurement. Cal aprofitar-ho ja que es preveu que aviat es començaran a tirar a terra el mur perimetral i bona part dels edificis secundaris. La part central, el panoptic i la majoria de galeries es conservaran, però perdran la pàtina original (ronya, de fet), i fotogràficament no serà el mateix.

===========================================
All of us has see this kind of room in prisons in movies or series, the famous visitors room. Initially the barrier between inmates and visitors was a fence, so it was possible somehow to have phisical contact, specially valuable with the family. But afterwards all was caged in security glass & intercomes.
La Model entered service in 1904 and was closed in 2017, after decades of public demands of closure due to the deplorable condition of the inmates and the bad image for the surroundings. As the name suggests, it was intented to be a modelic prison, but although it was a modern design in early XX Century, soon the conditions deteriorated, and the first mutiny was just in 1906. Designed for 1000 inmates, in 1940 it reached a peak of 13.000 inmates, mostly political prisoners of the fascist Franco regime. Hundres left this place in their way to their execution. The last political victim was Salvador Puig Antich, executed in La Model in 1974. In fact La Model is a very important place to understand the history of the political represion in Catalonia, specially by the fascist regime between 1939 and 1978 (and beyond). Also it reflected the criminal and social problems of Barcelona in the XX Century.
Now the former prison is open to the public, but soon will be partly demolished (the surrounding wall and secondary buildings) to made parks, and the main building redeveloped for civic activities and also a history museum. So the time to take pictures is now or never.
This Mercedes 600 was sold originally to Nigeria, from where this has been purchased and bought to UK. The interior has very upscale velour trim, fully air-condition, and privacy divider glass between the passenger and driver, and an intercom phone to speak to the driver from the back seat. Unfortunately the bonnet cable was broken so no engine pictures
