This past September we had the roof on our 30 year old home replaced. I learned quite a bit about roofing and found out about all kinds of cool gadgets roofers use. One tool, which looks like a robot to me, is a compressor. He was very noisy.
The other gadget was a 32" magnet on wheels that picked up nails. One day I tried the rolling magnet and was delighted to find this cool pattern of nails on the magnet when I leaned it up on the debris trailer. Who knew roofing could be such fun?

The old remnants of the Pratt Truss bridge supports only a few trees while, in the distance, a more modern bridge crosses the river from Virginia into Maryland. Meanwhile, the bridge that is no more would have been crossing from West Virginia into more of West Virginia. This is located at Harpers Ferry, which is the very northern tip of WV, and why the bridge crossings are so different. The river close to the ruins is the Shenandoah but it ends just ahead and becomes the Potomac. A beautiful location with mountains surrounding and a historical town filled with American Civil War history. © 2011-Current.

Our journey on The Bittern Line from Norwich to Sheringham to a railway event at the heritage North Norfolk Railway with Greater Anglia was interrupted at Cromer due to ongoing engineering works between Cromer and Sheringham. So like many others across the network at the weekend, a rail replacement coach it is then.
The irony here is that this very pleasant, clean and tidy luxury coach was light years better than the Greater Anglia train we travelled in from Norwich to Cromer.. Unusually for me, I completely neglected to record in my travel notes the details of this unbranded coach, make, model, operator, year of manufacture and so on etc.
Note the British Rail 'double arrow' logo at the top of Cromer Station location marker post thingy. This logo is designed to show two arrows showing the direction of travel on a twin track line.
The British Rail logo which first appeared in 1965 with the British Transport Commission's rebrand of British Railways was designed by Gerald Burney. It is brilliantly simplistic, instantly recognisable and arguably one of the most enduring of any logo design for a United Kingdom only brand .
Despite privatisation and the end of British Rail from 1997 the double arrow remains in use on tickets, direction signs, outside stations as shown here and as the National Rail brand logo.

RATP London United Enviro200 DE70 is seen in Wellington Street, Slough on Monday 28th December, arriving with a rail replacement service from Maidenhead - although trains were operating over this section they were routed over the fast lines and were unable to serve Burnham and Taplow. This service was nominally separate, but in practice was worked as an extension of the Slough-Ealing Broadway service with buses and coaches laying over at Slough for several minutes. In the background is St Ethelbert's Catholic Church, which since its inception in 1910 has ministered to the Catholics of many different countries who have settled in this diverse town over the years.
****************************************
On Sunday 27th and Monday 28th December 2015 the railway was completely closed between Slough and London Paddington to allow various Crossrail-related works to take place.
Long-distance services were curtailed at Reading or diverted into London Paddington and London Marylebone, whilst a limited half-hourly shuttle train service was operated between Reading and Slough. A half-hourly rail replacement bus service operated between Slough and Ealing Broadway, using RATP London United Darts, Enviro200s and Optare Versas supplemented by coaches from a number of local operators - the route was single-decked because of the low bridge at Langley Station (this was supplemented by additional 'shorts' between Hayes & Harlington and Ealing Broadway, some of which were double-decked). A half-hourly service was also operated between Slough and Maidenhead to serve Burnham and Taplow, which could not be served by trains. This was nominally a separate service but was worked in practice as an extension of the Slough-Ealing Broadway service with buses pausing at Slough for several minutes.
An alternative service was provided between Slough and Hillingdon Underground non-stop for Metropolitan Line connections to Baker Street; this also ran half-hourly this was operated by First Berkshire using Tridents and a Green Line Volvo.
As well as the dedicated rail replacement buses rail tickets were widely accepted on alternative rail, Underground and bus routes in Slough and West London, and the 81 in particular was carrying good loads between Slough and Hounslow West.
For completeness, on both days Reading Buses and Horseman Coaches also operated rail replacement buses between Maidenhead and Marlow, extended to High Wycombe to connect with Chiltern Railways services to and from London Marylebone.

So after a few minutes of racking our brains. I remember I had 2 frozen cakes that I could pull out and thaw in time. Granted the cake was late....but we managed to give them at least something to cut on their wedding day.
Loopy bow doesn't look half as good as my original : ( Spares from past cakes...lol
