Inside, the mechanism, although rusty, seems in fairly good condition. The York to Selby line opened in 1871, and for 110 years the locomotives rolled over the swing bridge at Nayburn. The junction was a slow one though, and in the 1980's the line was rerouted to help pick up speed. The bridge was left to rust, a derelict monument to a once vital link between York, Selby and on towards London. In recent years, the bridge has been found a new lease of life as part of the York to Selby cycle way.
The remains of a signal control at a grade crossing of an abandoned section of the New York Susquehanna and Western Railroad.
The old mechanical clockwork in the civic tower from when it was built in 1832. It's not used any more, and has been replaced with a more modern mechanism.

Shot of a wristwatch mechanism, lit from behind using a constant light source. Manually focused, edited in lightroom
Here is a properly exposed image of this wristwatch mechanism:
Friday saw me trying to muster the courage to go out on my bike between those nasty squally showers that we had ( I know that I should not complain about some heavy rain and light winds while parts of America are being truly battered by the hurricane season). There was a dry patch and so out I went.
The plan was up towards Pontypridd ( a town about 8 miles North of Cardiff) then drop back down and get to Cowbridge an overall distance of about 35 miles. I had only gone a couple of miles when, after having changed down a gear to turn right on an uphill bend I heard the most awful crunching noise. On looking down I saw the chain wrapped around the front cogs. Thankfully I was only 2 miles from home and most of that downhill too.
Plans changed and down I went to the local bike shop, the advice was new teeth and chain. 24 hours later I was back out for a shortened version of the planned route the previous day, but not before I had taken advantage of photo opportunity that presented itself, the whole mechanism will never be this clean again!
It's an example of what's needed to drive the bike forward from the power generated by the cyclists legs - I never was much good at physics in school!
This was originally a power line tower viewed from below and next to the I-5 freeway overpass/bridge in the Eastlake neighborhood.
Old mechanism to "play" music on a 15 or 16 bell carillon (even though there seems to be a lot more than 16 connections!) Metal drum which hits the "keys" is a replacement of an old wooden drum. The mechanism had a sliding adjustment which appeared to shift the "keys" and cable connections slightly to one side - and therefore play a different tune.
That's the combo I use for my SEP and Boxer models. You need a tight rubber-band, especially if the vehicle is a little heavy, but other then that it works pretty well!
I've taken some inspiration from other people's solutions, so this is a sort of adaption or permutation of some other steering suspensions out there, not taking credit for the idea, just showing the design.
