What? You mean to tell me you don't take pictures while pumping gas too?
You have no idea what you're missing ;)

Huge flock of Lapwing still here but only small numbers of Mallard, Shoveler, Shelduck, Wigeon, Teal, Moorhen, Coot, Mute Swan and 1 Grey Heron.
The gas pump is the photo is moving sugar maple sap from the 50 gallon collection tank up 12 feet to the 3/4 inch 'mainline' pipe. From there the sap runs downhill to the sugarhouse.

Cragside is a Victorian country house and estate just outside Rothbury. Developed from the 1860s by William Armstrong, the pioneering hydraulic engineer, it was the first house in the country to be electrically lit, by its own hydroelectric plant. It is now owned by the National Trust.
As well as the hydroelectric power supply, Cragside also featured a Turkish bath, and various hydraulic machines and devices including a lift. The power for these was generated by this pump, which used the flow of the Debdon Burn, out of the artificial Tumbleton Lake, to pump fresh spring water up to a header pond some distance above the house.
What the Victorians did for us... poo-pumping pomp and circumstance at Crossness Pumping Station, London.
One of our truck mounted small line pumps I pumped concrete with today. We pumped out the wall toppings for an elementary school.
The 3" trash pump which will be filling my dome has arrived. Tomorrow
I hope to take it for a little test drive and see how it does.
This water pump is in the heart of Eyries in West Cork. I imagine that it was THE water supply many years ago, but now it's just another wonderful feature of the village. One that still works too - it certainly quenched my thirst for sure!
I love technology from this era. I like to point out examples like this to my electrical engineering and controls colleagues who say things like "You can't run anything without a PLC". I beg to differ! :)

This is a ram water pump and it uses the force of the incoming water to operate the pump , via 2 valves. It was used to pump water up to the Old Midland Railway line by the viaduct , it reminded me of something you might buy at an Ann Summers Party
52.5 weeks of 2010 [Week 14] Back at the Pump Rooms to meet up with the Bride & Groom to find out more about the photos they require. Looking forward to my first wedding photography :-)
One of two Parsons turbine driven centrifugal pumps in the centre bay at Kempton engines. As turbines spin at 20 to 40,000 rpm large reduction gears are needed to drive the centrifugal water pumps.
Early pumpers used cisterns as a source of water. Water was later put into wooden pipes under the streets and a "fire plug" was pulled out of the top of the pipe when a suction hose was to be inserted. Later systems incorporated pressurized fire hydrants, where the pressure was increased when a fire alarm was sounded. This was found to be harmful to the system, and unreliable, and today's valved hydrant systems are kept under pressure at all times, although additional pressure may be added when needed. Pressurized hydrants eliminate much of the work in obtaining water for pumping through the engine and into the attack hoses. Many rural fire engines still rely upon cisterns or other sources for drafting water into the pumps.
