Ti piace vincere facile...!
E’ vero, qualcuno potrebbe dire così,
a chi non piacciono la pace ed i gattini...?
Poi, si sfonda sempre una porta aperta quando ci si dichiara per la pace...!
Ma cos’è la pace...?
E’ il mio stare in pace e gli altri non devono disturbarmi?
E’ godermi in pace la mia ricchezza?
La pace dicono, si gusta meglio dopo un buon periodo di guerra,
infatti, la si invoca spesso quando la speranza di vincere è ormai finita...
La Pace, è contro l’economia, contro le fabbriche, contro le speculazioni,
contro il consumismo, a veder bene, la Pace è contro talmente tante cose che,
per aver la Pace, ci vorrebbe una grande guerra...! O_o
Aggiungerei io...
Sigh...!

Yo soy un hombre sincero
De donde crecen las palmas
Yo soy un hombre sincero
De donde crecen las palmas
Y antes de morirme quiero
Echar mis versos del alma
Chorus:
Guantanamera
Guajira Guantanamera
Guantanamera
Guajira Guantanamera
Mi verso es de un verde claro
Y de un carmin encendido
Mi verso es de un verde claro
Y de un carmin encendido
Mi verso es un ciervo herido
Que busca en el monte amparo
Chorus
Cultivo la rosa blanca
En junio como en enero
Qultivo la rosa blanca
En junio como en enero
Para el amigo sincero
Que me da su mano franca
Chorus
Y para el cruel que me arranca
El corazon con que vivo
Y para el cruel que me arranca
El corazon con que vivo
Cardo ni ortiga cultivo
Cultivo la rosa blanca
Chorus
Con los pobres de la tierra
Quiero yo mi suerte echar
Con los pobres de la tierra
Quiero yo mi suerte echar
El arroyo de la sierra
Me complace mas que el mar

A pair of Class 142 Pacers take a break between services at Newcastle Central station. A Class 67 locomotive can also be glimpsed in the bay platform. The DMUs carry the livery of Arriva Trains Northern.

On the 26th November 2020 Class 143619 passes Red Rock with the 2F16 1120 Paignton to Exmouth.
I think the Class 143s will be withdrawn by the 12th December and Pacers will be no more in Devon. Can not say I will miss them but they have been part of the railway scene down here for many years now.
Of course if you believe the BBC they only operated in Manchester and the last one was withdrawn on the 27th November but unless it isn't within 30 miles of Salford the BBC don't appear interested these days...
SBB Re 460 002 'Seeland' powers IR1434, the 16:28 Brig to Geneva Airport along the Rhône Valley near Yvorne while the solo jogger takes a more sedate pace towards Roche VD.

This afternoon, word got out that the Lackawanna heritage unit was leading a colorful consist on a westbound coal empty (E-MHSCKM) through the Kansas City area. Cloudy weather be damned, something like this rolling through mid-day on the weekend got ALL of the local fans out to shoot.
Big ups to my friend Darrell for piloting the vehicle while I nabbed this shot of the 1074 just north of Rushville, Missouri.
Pacer DMU sits between platforms 5 and 6 at Sheffield Midland amongst the weeds silent and stabled for the night.

The world has been running at its same pace. No one is bothered about what you and I have been enduring. It is me who understands it so well. Take heed and reach out. I am here... waiting to help you in every way I can. End this agony for the both of us.
a blast from the past with pacers on the Severn bridge Line from Temple meads seen here at Redland station
144014 and 019 approach Derby on 5Q66 Gascoigne Wood to Tyseley, going to their new owners at Vintage Trains 18/12/20. 144023 would later go down on its own to join the pair.
A twin car Class 143 Pacer unit slowly makes its way along the single track branch on the approach to Barry Island station, working the 2Y67 service from Aberdare.
Pannier tank 9682, a stalwart of 84E Tyseley shed, is in charge of a pick-up freight from Stratford upon Avon. At Whitlock's End station a brand new DMU is heading for Henley-in-Arden, it's white roof unblemished and speed whiskers not added.This is a Derby suburban 2nd series set with 2 character reporting code box, (B0) on this, these were in service by 1958
Whitlock's End (Halt) was a little used station built entirely from wood, it had a footpath that ran along the embankment top (still there but 'difficult') Today the station has been totally rebuilt with disabled access ramps and direct steps to the massive car park, the field to the right on this shot. Trains now terminate here giving a service to Birmingham every 20 minutes and to Stratford every hour. The DMU in this picture was replaced by Pacer units (class 150) in the mid 1980's these in turn, have just been phased out by new Class 172 units.

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!
