Aziz Mita, a 70 years aged man, father of two children is working a day labour, where he is carrying mammoth loads of jute to earn his living.
Pabna, Bangladesh, 2021
Jute is known as Golden Fiber in Bangladesh. Once Bangladesh used to earn huge revenue from jute product. Because of its huge contribution in economy as well as because of its golden colour it has claimed the synonym Golden Fiber.
In recent years, Jute has regain its glory as throughout the world jute products are reclaiming its popularity. One of the major reasons is Jute is a environment friendly substance and it is one of the major alternative of plastic based products.

No name given for this U-Boat or the location but still an interesting old picture I thought.
From the 1920’s to the 1970’s, the site functioned primarily as
a transfer depot for coal from bulk carriers to smaller coal-fired
vessels. The Balls Head Coal Loader was extremely advanced
for its time, breaking records by delivering nearly 2500 tons of
coal in under 20 hours.
In 1934, the lease was taken up by the Wallarah Coal
Company which had a mine near Newcastle and a wharf on
the coast at Catherine Hill Bay. They would operate the loader
for nearly 40 years.
Work at the Coal Loader fell away until the 1970s when the
place was completely refitted to supply export coal to Japan.
Later the jetty was lengthened to accommodate larger colliers.
By the 1990s technology and social change spelled the end
of operations at the Balls Head Coal Loader. The world had
not lost its appetite for coal – in fact it had never been greater.
But that meant exports directly from Newcastle in ships too
large to dock at Balls Head. The ships took on their final load of coal in 1992.

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.

Moving timbers over to the Flattop to release the Timbercar for other use. The open bunk design of these cars allows cornering at a handy switch to allow hoistless movement of loads.
* Never enough cars, no matter how many you have, grrrr.
Phew! Wasn't sure I was going to get to my LOAD layout today! Managed to tie in the boat prompt too. I somehow missed getting a photo of the water taxi, but here are my girls horsing around while we waited for on last Fall.

Seen at London's Victoria Coach Station in April 1987 was Yelloway Trathen of Plymouth A56OTA, a Neoplan Skyliner new to Trathen in 1984. It is seen wearing National Express Rapide livery.
One to check out in large size on black if you want to see exactly how much this little bee can carry.... Another lucky shot -- I'm not fast enough to catch bees in flight like this -- it flew off just as I pressed the button....
RA278 is seen loading at Monkstown Farm in October 1996 after a 6 months of hard work, it is assumed the bus is going to Dun Laoire.
In preparation for the Schkeuditz event this August, I planned a small lay-out consisting of a loading platform. It's now 4 baseplates long, so I am carefully confident that I'll finish it in time. I'm planning on doing most of the detailing irl, that's why the walls are quite plain now
