An overall view of the terminus end at Scarborough station with the charming signal box and an unidentified class37 with 2J63 headcode and DMU for company. Taken in April 1973.
I first discovered the delights of Scarborough in 1970 and I recall seeing maroon liveried coaches here. Such a long time ago!
I didn't reurn as often as I should but then that is true of pretty much everywhere but saw steam here in 1973.

These flowers of the plantain grasses always brings back memories of childhood summers - picking them whilst sitting on the grassy field at school at playtime. We would then bend the stalks around the base of the flower and shoot the heads at our friends. Some people see them just as boring weeds - I find them strangely beautiful.

I'm sorry I haven't been around. Life continues to be too busy, and time has become quite precious. I do, however, find time to continue to enjoy your beautiful photos as they show up in my contact list .. and be sure to know they all put a smile on my face..

Quang Tri was a battlefield, one of the most intensively bombed areas in military history. Hundreds of thousands of tons of high explosive were dropped as well as napalm, phosphorous and herbicide. Quang Tri town, once an important citadel town and the provincial capital, is mostly an evocative ruin.

Opened in 1867, Dieweg cemetery served as the municipal burial ground until the Second World War and was definitively decommissioned in 1958. It is a testament to the peak of funerary art, when the great families erected veritable architectural works of art for their deceased loved ones, sometimes in the form of chapels (such as the “Allard Chapel” and its family vault, considered the biggest private funerary monument in Belgium). All the styles in vogue at the time are represented, starting with the “neo” or revival styles (Egyptian, Greek, Romanesque, Gothic, Classical, etc.), followed by Eclecticism and Art Nouveau and ending with Art Deco.
Rolduc Abbey.
Rolduc abbey in Kerkrade is one of the most important religious monuments in the Netherlands. Rolduc is the largest abbey complex in the Benelux and one of the Dutch UNESCO Top 100 monuments.
For 35 years the buildings remained empty. In 1831, Rolduc Abbey was recommissioned by the Diocese of Liège for use as a seminary, a college training teenage boys for priesthood. After Belgium’s independence, this seminary moved to St. Truiden in Belgium and Rolduc Abbey was taken over by the Diocese of Roermond. Rolduc became a boarding school and grammar school (Gymnasium) for boys from Dutch wealthy families, among them several well-known politicians, scientists and writers of that time. From 1946 until 1967, Rolduc was once more a minor seminary, only now for the Diocese of Roermond. The boarding school closed in 1971; the Gymnasium closed in 2011.
