I'm actually believing that no one has ever even accidentally hit that in the past 50 years. Not even one of the Kennedys! Maybe Teddy Roosevelt was the last to knock into it.
Note the enormous resemblance with the previous Hanomag 1.3 Liter. The grille, the body shape with the integrated headlamps, they all have a lot in common with the 1938 Hanomag. The designers must have been aware of each others plans.
In the late thirties many car builders and designers adopted the new theories about car aerodynamics and applied them in the latest car models. These avant-garde plans were not always applied to production models, unfortunately sometimes only single prototypes.

I don't know what happened with this rare Rapid after the show. If I'm not mistaken this Rapid was shown by the Dutch SÌŒkodaclub Nederland.

This is from Tillie's book of notes that her friends and family members wrote before she moved from South Dakota to California in the 1930s.
Schools been pretty shitty right now, anyways here’s a small update. You can see the SNOT technique used for the home foundations. Lots and lots of technic beams. Oh and btw Via Domus is on hold, not many people interested anyway. Enjoy

The loco was traction for the NR ultrasonic test train. 73971 is in the background with the Caledonian Sleeper stock for that evening.
I sat in the drivers seat for a trip down memory lane,if only for a few minutes!

Ironically it was today in Houston that I found out Bill Bryson has a new book scheduled for publication at the end of May. In many ways it will be a follow up to his "Notes from a small island" shown above. His new work will be eagerly anticipated in this household.
The title is fixed but as yet there is no indication of the cover or the exact date of release. What is known is that the majority of chapters are based around his usual wry observations from different locations around Brexitland during the last year. Most feature England. However, there will be at least one chapter from Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.
With his gentle but incisive insights, it should be a fascinating read from a gentleman who holds dual nationality - born in America but who has spent most of his life in Britain. In the new book, he apparently looks on at the utter chaos in a country he clearly loves - but one that is falling apart at the seams.
