On the 21st September 2017 SR West Country 4-6-2 No.34092 City Of Wells is approaching Bury Bolton Street Station to start her duties for the day. The diesel in the middle is a Class 40 and the engine on the far right is a Class 37 but they stayed near the signal box all day so I was unfortunately not able to identify them. The railway is part of the East Lancashire Railway.

London Country North East AN85 (JPL 185K) a Park Royal bodied Leyland Atlantean PDR1A/1 entered preservation in October 1988. It was subsequently rallied for a number of years in LCNE's attractive two tone green and white livery before being acquired by Buzz Co-op, Harlow in June 1993. Here it is seen attending the Cobham Bus Museum Rally at Addlestone on April 9th 1989.
We're on Yorkshire Engine Company built 0-6-0 'Janus' shunter No 1 picking up 4 brake vans for the afternoon session of our day, as fellow 'Janus' class Yorkshire Engine Company 1951 built 0-6-0 shunter passes us by on a section of track next the Appleby Frodingham Railway Preservation Society's depot.
We are about to take part in the afternoon session of our driving experience day around the vast British Steel Scuntorpe works with the Appleby Frodingham Railway Preservation Society.
Priced at £550 for 2 people on an 8 hour day, driving a single locomotive in the morning and a second locomotive with a train of 4 brake vans in the afternoon.
Within the operating constraints at that moment in time you can go to where ever you want within the site, i can certainly recomend this highly enjoyable day out.

Its a sign of getting old when buses you remember being new enter preservation. Former Arriva North West 3302 [N302CKB], or 0302 in MTL terms is now part of the North West Vehicle Restoration Trust and is seen here outside the groups premises at Kirkby, Merseyside on the evening of 20th November 2011.
The bus is expected to be restored to MTL livery complete with Wirral Peninsula fleetnames.
Seen turning from Seven Mile Lane into The Street, Mereworth is preserved ex Maidstone & District and Arriva Southern Counties Plaxton Pointer bodied Dennis Dart, 3238. Recently repainted into the M&D post privitisation livery from the late 90s.
22nd November 2015
Since I last saw 3238 at Herne Bay it (she) has been re-painted into the M&D livery in which it was delivered in 1997. Seen here on a Sunday run out recreating the M&D 151 route that use to run from Tunbridge Wells to Chatham via Tonbridge, Hadlow, Kings Hill, Cuxton & Strood. The route is now split into 2 with Nu Venture offering a service (still 151) from Kings Hill to Chatham and Arriva operating the 77 between Tunbridge Wells and Kings Hill.
3238 is seen here in Tower View, Kings Hill.

We are inside the depot of Bury Corporation for today’s Guy Wulfrunian photograph where we find 101 (LEN101) sitting over the old tram tracks.
This vehicle was the seventh Wulfrunian built and carried a body by Charles H Roe of Leeds. It was on display at the 1960 Commercial Motor Show at Earls Court but was on the Park Royal stand as the Roe stand was up to the limit on exhibits. It carried both Roe and Park Royal manufacturers’ plates.
Interestingly, she was fitted with a three-piece passenger door with two wide leaves folding towards the front and a single narrow leaf to the rear, thus avoiding obstructing the nearside staircase.
After just three years at Bury, she was withdrawn from service and sold to South Wales independent Howell and Withers who ran her for only a short while before selling her to Wrights of Penycae where she ran her on their service to Wrexham for about five years.
After that, she was sold to Jim Berresford of Cheddleton where she was only operated for a few days before being parked up in the field behind the depot. Here she remained for many years.
She was eventually taken to the GMPTE depot at Hyde Road in Manchester with a view to her eventual restoration into Bury colours but an incident with a training bus which caused major structural damage was to spell the beginning of the end for her.
The mangled bus was acquired by the West Riding Omnibus Preservation Society and the damaged body removed, leaving just the chassis and running gear. Over the years, this was stripped of usable parts to sustain their Wulfrunian and eventually, in 2020, the remaining chassis was cut up.

This is a single tree right in the middle of the road in Gubrah area in Muscat.......this should be an example to all the people in kerala, India.... who is trying to cut 100 years old tress, in the name of devolopment.Though this is a side road and not a main road.....people do accept this and make sure that you go through both sides, in order to give the tree the life and respect that it deserves.Three cheers to the Envionmental protection of Oman.
It's canning season and my kitchen table is littered with all the canning necessities from jars to veg. I love old mason jars. I have inherited some from both of my grandmothers and my grandfathers new wife (she didn't have any children), and my mother gave me a bunch of hers as well. It's interesting to think how many different things have been canned in these old jars through the years.

Location: Brasília, DF, BR
The Cathedral of Brasília is a striking building by Oscar Niemeyer, whose arched columns sweep up from the ground, an explosion of light framed in a crown of thorns. The mostly underground cathedral has sixteen curved columns and a stained glass interior. Standing near the entrance are four large statues known as the Four Evangelists. These sculptures were made by Alfredo Ceschiatti with the help of the sculptor Dante Croce in 1968, as were the three sculptures of angels, suspended by steel cables inside the nave. Having an oval form, the baptistery features walls covered by a panel of ceramic tiles painted in 1977 by Athos Bulcão. Brasília is a masterpiece of modernist architecture. It is the only city in the world built in the twentieth century to be awarded (in 1987) the status of Cultural Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO.
Today was my last day at the museum; I'm trying to make more room in my schedule for writing and editing work, and volunteering was a big commitment. It was our annual Mineral Madness festival so I spent the morning at a craft table making pet rocks with kids; a nice last shift. Whenever I looked up from the rocks I saw that wonderful whale skeleton (and several others) above my head.
As I walked towards my car I saw a low tree laden with impossibly huge buds.
It’s nice to see more 80’s / 90’s coaches now entering the preservation ranks. Here Volvo B10M’s G508 LWU seen with P339 VWR seen on display at the Alton Bus Rally 2019.
