Staff from the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service, part of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, will use a mixture of light and sound to discourage birds from nesting on the bridges. Techniques include sound cannons that make a loud bang noise and small projectiles that make different noises combined with flashes of light.

Sandra Claws left us loads of swag (that's what Mister Moo calls it) in our stockings and stuff and we got chocolate and cars and Bamburgh got a compass and I got a painting set and some stickers and a book to put them in and Bamburgh got stretchy dinosaur things and Moo got a new friend called Spot that we bought him because he doesn't have a brother and we thought he might be lonely. And he got new mittens. Mary Crismus everyone!

KiwiRail's DSG 3277 propels a train of wagons from the port onto the linkspan and into the belly of what, at the time, was KiwiRail only rail-enabled ship Aratere working the 'Interislander' service between Wellington on the North Island and Picton on the South Island.

On 18th August Aratere has been retired, allowing upgrades and rebuilding of the linkspans ready to take a new fleet of ships from 2029. In the meantime, there will be no rail connection between New Zealand's two island. The impact of this on rail freight traffic, particularly on the South Island is not yet known.

Aratere was launched in 1998 following construction in Vigo, Spain and has spent it's career crossing the Cook Straight in New Zealand.

The DSG class of shunting locomotive dates from 1981 and is a product of Toshiba Heavy Industries in Japan. This example is remote control fitted.

We had a some great weather the other day so I dusted off my camera and drove out to my friends animal sanctuary and nature preserve. As I made my way to the pond at the bottom of the hill, I saw a few little plops into the water. There were loads of toads and they were VERY active this particular morning. They were so busy doing spring toad things that they barely noticed me. I like it when nature cooperates. :)

So, for this layout I looked through all my photos from the last few weeks and picked out the "things" that best characterized our lives right now. Truthfully, we're in a season of our lives right now where everything is about our kids and family life: Girl Scouts, science projects, Valentine's Day boxes, dinner, blankies, etc.

This was a fun prompt. It would be fun to do monthly.

Started off today with the prompt... you know wife, mother, friend... but somewhere went in a completely different direction. and my card would most likely say: WIFE - MOTHER - MAID... hahaha.

This is my page of all the layouts that I did in LOAD 513

The ramp can be seen in the centre with the cars parked on it. Behind the gates was a single line which was electrified, as it was used by the Electric locos waiting a turn of duty. But the ramp's purpose was the loading of cattle and other goods.

The people in the passage are heading for the stairs and lift to the Wicker. The building on the left is the Royal Victoria Hotel.

When the station was closed, the loading ramp was the only way on to the station itself.

Sometimes you need to just drive around with no plans and see what you can find...

I love nights like this
