This replica is anchored in Whitby, where James Cook began his three major voyages.. Firstly on the Endeavour then the Adventure and Discovery... (another ship Cook commanded was the Resolution)
She (the Endeavour) departed Plymouth in August 1768, rounded Cape Horn, and reached Tahiti in time to observe the 1769 transit of Venus across the Sun. She then set sail into the largely uncharted ocean to the south, stopping at the Pacific islands of Huahine, Borabora, and Raiatea to allow Cook to claim them for Great Britain. In September 1769, she anchored off New Zealand, the first European vessel to reach the islands since Abel Tasman's Heemskerck 127 years earlier. (Wiki)

A replica of Stephenson’s famous Rocket running on an overcast day at Vintage Trains’ Tyseley works near Birmingham. Rocket was the most advanced steam locomotive of its day. It was built for the The Rainhill Trials in October 1829 to test George Stephenson's argument that locomotives would provide the best motive power for the then nearly-completed Liverpool and Manchester Railway. Five locomotives were entered, but Stephenson's Rocket was the only locomotive to complete the trials and was declared the winner.

The Golden Hinde docked here at St Mary Overie Dock, Pickford Wharf, London, is a full sized hand built replica. Launched in 1973, it also has circumnavigated the world.
Good to go
This sits on the grounds of the South Carolina Statehouse. It was a gift from the city of Philadelphia.
In my new hometown of Albury, NSW, Australia this aircraft - the oldest DC2 in the world - a replica to the KLM Uiver that crash landed in the town in 1934 whilst competing in the London-Melbourne Air Race.
Read the remarkable story here - I've lived here for only a year and the story sends chills down my spine.
Unfortunately this plane is up for sale and will likely move away from it's resting ground at the Albury Airport due to incredibly expensive housing costs. I had to get this shot before it goes and the night I received my 5D Mark III, I did just that!

Many restaurants in Japan display plastic or wax replicas of their dishes in a window near their entrance. These replicas serve both to entice and inform patrons of the restaurant's menu and tend to offer an accurate, visual description of the style and price of meals found inside. The displays are especially helpful for foreign tourists who do not read and speak Japanese. For if all other forms of communication fail, you can go outside and point to what you want to order. (www.japan-guide.com/e/e2040.html)
Plastic food replicas appear in the windows and display cases of establishments which serve food throughout Japan. Once made from wax, today they are usually made out of plastic. The plastic models are mostly handmade from polyvinyl chloride and carefully sculpted to look like the actual dishes. The models are custom-tailored to restaurants and even common items such as ramen will be modified to match each establishment's food. During the molding process, the imitation ingredients are often chopped up and combined in a manner similar to actual cooking. (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fake_food_in_Japan)
