NP23 and a Tangara pace each other at Rhodes due to restricted signals

The 2024 pace car for the Chicago NASCAR Street Race is seen at the 2024 Chicago Auto Show at McCormick Place in Chicago, IL.

A couple of Pacers pass through the Healey Mills forest, on their way to Gascoigne Wood from Newton Heath. Not sure of their future......

Well with the dreaded Pacer railbuses on borrowed time the challenge is on to secure some unusual shots for posterity.

I can't believe I got talked into a night time visit to Edale amid frequent snow showers and an icy wind that would cut you in half but we managed to secure a shot.

Here 2 x 2-car sets 142 034 & 142 011 calls briefly at Edale with train 2S60 the 20.45 Manchester Piccadilly to Sheffield stopping service. The trouble with picking such remote locations is the short dwell time for a time exposure and the added challenge of predicting where it will stop when the platform has no stop car marks. This isn't the shot I intended as we were thwarted by a 4 car formation. The idea was to get the signal box in shot behind a 2-car so I will no doubt be back for a second attempt.

Newly-outshopped from Bukinje workshops 'Kriegslok' 2-10-0 33-504 of Kreka Mines puts everything it has into lifting its heavy train from Sikulje mine loading point on 24 February 2015. As the early afternoon working gets underway towards Lukavac exchange yard the local coal thieves are already in action atop the gondola wagons and the local resident mongrel, as always, happily paces the locomotive on the adjacent main line track, quite clearly a German steam locomotive aficionado!

Pacer 142019 arrives at Battersby from Middlesbrough at 1444 on the 4th july 2018. The driver will change ends here after exchanging the single line tokens from a lineside cabinet. The driver will have the token to Glaisdale before proceeding straight ahead. This train is 2D89, 1402 Middlesbrough - Whitby northern Rail service.

I have a soft spot for the AMC Pacer. This one was gorgeous!

A Northern Pacer is bouncing along passed the steelworks with the 11:5 Sheffield - Adwick. Don't stop - you may get melted down.

CN X394 for Richmond, Qc heads east on the Montreal Sub with CN 2302 and CN 8959 for power as it paces a car on the parallel highway 20. After a large snowfall overnight it was pouring rain when I got this shot.

AMC Pacer D/L Coupe

Collector car plated, seen parked at Len's Automotive in St. Paul. Not sure on the year, but it is a later built one given the updated front styling.

SCT006 & SCT001 pace through Goulburn with 5BM9, Friday, 28th July 2017

Processed with VSCO with a5 preset

an old cumbria tradition .....

the eggs are boiled with onion skins to dye them ......

the more skins used the richer the colour...

then you polish them with a little dripping from the traditional easter sunday roast......

 

the reason for this is you hide the pace eggs and let the kids hunt them out....... afterwards then they are kept to play egg dumps down the pub.......

egg dumps i hear you say....

you pit your egg against everyone elses ....

in turn you hold your egg in your clenched hand with the tip out and others hit the top of your egg with the pointed end......

whoevers egg is left uncracked wins.......

you normally win a free amount of beer at the pub depending on how good or mean the landlord is.........................

 

then the last bit is just mingin.......

they peel the eggs and chuck them into a pack of crisps and swill them in vinegar......

then the dirty sods eat them........

 

yum...

cant beat good old traditions lol..xxxx

A slice of life at Albert Dock in Liverpool

sometimes beauty surrounds us, and if we slow down long enough for it to develop, that beauty can put on quite a display at times...

 

Last night... just before I was baptized (check previous post...) it looked like the sun had dropped behind some thick clouds and the show was over. Only because we stayed put and waited, we were treated to a second helping of a Cali sunset when the sun slipped below the horizon, yet lit up the clouds for some additional light painting on the clouds and the water... quite beautiful.

 

But I have found real beauty in the hearts of special people that God has placed in my life. One such person is spending this afternoon attending a memorial service for a distant ex relative who's own family lost interest in him long ago. Another couple have spent the holidays gathered around the hospital bed of a young boy fighting for his life and a place in this world. And another woman has even traveled hundreds of miles to bring groceries and to sit and hold the baby girl of the couple so they could continue to give love as it has been appointed for them to do. We can all have a part in being beautiful... and sharing that beauty to bring light and life in the face and lives of simple people... like me. Thanks for bringing light to my life when I felt so swallowed by darkness... :)

 

For those of you who need some LIGHT

Little combo of the Pace's garage!

A Class 142 Pacer DMU (in ATW livery) approaches Penarth having passed through Dingle Road Station in the background working the 2P73 Bargoed service. The scene has pretty much stood still this past half century or so with regular DMU use since the 1960’s, other than the singling of the track between Cogan Junction and Penarth in 1967 as a result of the Beeching Act. Prior to this, there was a double track serving stations to Penarth through to Barry. Still, at least the line to Penarth has survived, changing little since then (including the traction) and so shots like these will be a reminder of how it was.

Tuscany is one of my favourite places in RL. In fact all things Italian are!

 

A slice of Tuscany has been reproduced in Second Life by Romy and Jac Mornington who have generously opened their Bella Pace sim to the public for two weeks only.

 

It isn't really called Girasole but that's the Italian word for Sunflower and there are a lot of them by the house so that name sprang into my mind.

 

For the house and surrounding courtyards they have used many of the wonderful items from the 8f8 gacha Primavera in Toscana, which means "Spring in Tuscany".
