Wikipedia: The city of Nan's most famous wat is renowned for its cruciform ubosot which was constructed in 1596 and restored during the reign of Chao Ananta Vora Ritthi Det (1867-1875).

 

It is the only temple which was built as if it were on the back of two immense snakes (or Nagas). Each of the four entrances is preceded by a small corridor topped by a finely decorated point shaped structure (underlining the royal origin of the temple) and is equipped with smoothly carved doors; with Chinese demon guards in the East, flowers in the North and forest life motives in the Lanna style in the West and South.

Hemmings, Bennington, Vermont.

 

Hemmings Motor News was founded by Ernest Hemmings in Quincy, Illinois, in 1954. The first issue consisted of four pages, and 500 copies were sold at 50 cents per copy. In the late 1960s, publisher, Terry Ehrich and his partners purchased the business and moved it to Ehrich's native Vermont. As the interest in car collecting and restoring grew in the 1970s and 1980s, Hemmings' ad pages grew along with it.

 

Hemmings Motor News was acquired in April 2002 by American City Business Journals Inc. of Charlotte, North Carolina, following the death of Terry Ehrich. Jim Menneto, the former publisher of ACBJ's Boston Business Journal, took over as publisher of Hemmings in May 2002.

I like the way they are using different colour stone to show the replacement!

Bel Air Trilogy by Walter de Maria (2000-2011)Stainless Steel , Chevrolet Bel Air 1955

 

A solo by Walter De María: three identical Chevrolet cars from the 1950s occupy the entire space. Meticulously restored and brilliantly painted in red and beige, they are considered by the artist as objects for intervention. In this way, from the windshield to the rear window, passing through the interior and over the seats, a stainless steel metal bar crosses them. Each of these bars is geometrically different (circular, triangular and square), these primary shapes being a constant in De María's work.

  

Leura Cascades, Leura NSW. A wonderful location that has been badly affected by spate of bad weather. Hoping National Parks will be able to restore the location to its former glory. Just some hardy photographers this morning and a jogger or two.

The Greyhound station was built in 1938, and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1993 for its architectural significance. It was restored in 2018 and now used as a venue

Athens Herodes Atticus theatre and Theatre of Dyonisus, Athens, Greece

The Odeon of Herodes Atticus (Greek: Ωδείο Ηρώδου του Αττικού; also called Herodeion or Herodion;[1] Greek: Ηρώδειο) is a stone Roman theatre[2] structure located on the southwest slope of the Acropolis of Athens, Greece. The building was completed in AD 161 and then renovated in 1950

The Odeon of Herodes Atticus in Athens: Built at the base of the Acropolis, the ancient amphitheatre of Herodeion, also known as the Odeon of Herodus Atticus, is today one of the best places to experience a live classical theatre performance.

This ancient theater was built in the Roman times, in about 161 A.D. by the Roman philosopher, teacher and politician Herodes Atticus.

It was built in the memory of his wife Aspasia Regilla who died in 160 AD.

This semi-circular amphitheater has a wide 1,250 feet radius with a seating capacity of more than 6,000 people.

The original wall of the stage stood three storeys high and was decorated with marbles and ceramic pieces while today it stands in ruins.

The stage and seating area was laid with marble while it has been renovated today.

A cedar-wooden roof covered the theatre in the ancient times.

The Theatre of Dionysus[1] (or Theatre of Dionysos, Greek: Θέατρο του Διονύσου) is an ancient Greek theatre in Athens. It is built on the south slope of the Acropolis hill, originally part of the sanctuary of Dionysus Eleuthereus (Dionysus the Liberator ). The first orchestra terrace was constructed on the site around the 4th and 5th century BC, where it hosted the City Dionysia. The theatre reached its fullest extent in the fourth century BC under the epistates of Lycurgus when it would have had a capacity of up to 25,000, and was in continuous use down to the Roman period. The theatre then fell into decay in the Byzantine era and was not identified, excavated and restored to its current condition until the nineteenth century.

Van der Pekbuurt (neighbourhood).

During the entire renovation of this neighbourhood, the historic appearance of the outside of the houses has been restored. The new wooden doors, windows and frames have the original colours from the 1920s: ocher yellow, dark green and red brown.

 

De Van der Pekbuurt is gebouwd tussen 1918 en 1926 en is daarmee een van de eerste tuindorpen van Amsterdam. Architect Jan Ernst van der Pek ontwierp de stedenbouwkundige en architectonische opzet in 1916. Rode bakstenen muren, geglazuurde gele bakstenen banden en portieken die uit de gevels springen kenmerkten het straatbeeld. De wijk geldt als beschermd stadsgezicht.

 

De woonblokken hadden door de vele aanpassingen in de loop der tijd hun oorspronkelijke charme verloren. Door kunststof kozijnen en verdwenen originele details zoals dakkapelletjes, tuinmuren en voordeuren hadden de blokken een armoedige uitstraling gekregen. Ook de originele kleuren waren verdwenen.

 

Binnen de gehele renovatie van de wijk is aan de buitenzijde de historische uitstraling van de woningen van de Van der Pekbuurt teruggebracht. Zo hebben de nieuwe houten deuren en kozijnen de oorspronkelijke kleuren uit de jaren 1920: okergeel, donkergroen en roodbruin (architectenweb.nl).

No Smoking No Public Restroom

This 1956 Studebaker Hawk hood, came with a 170hp V8 engine. It could be upgraded to 180hp with the 4 barrel addition. The very talented restoration mechanic named Robert, told me of his passion to work on such vehicles. This piece of perfection sat idol for one year in a garage as it went through its beauty treatment.

 

Considering the Shuswap Car Show was held at an outdoor museum, it seemed appropriate to add a local flavour. So, I combined the rare scoop with the reflection of an old and also restored wooden building.

Hadlow Road Station on the Wirral Way footpath between Hooton & Neston Cheshire restored to look and feel at the time of closure in 1956. Opened by the Birkenhead Railway in 1866 later run by the joint GWR & LNWR the original track lasted until 1966 due to BR DMU driver training.

The station incorporates a museum and is looked after by Friends of Hadlow Road Station, the signal box is not the original having been obtained from Hassel Green Northants, devoid of track since 1966 a length was relayed to complete the restoration by 2011.

The waterwheel at Abbey Mill, Tintern in the Wye Valley is the only surviving one of twenty-two originally sited on the River Wye. This wheel built in 1870, was renovated in 2008.

In this post I told the story about my last minute pilgrimage to Montana Rail Link on the cusp of its flag lowering: flic.kr/p/2nLhAy6

 

So continuing with the series featuring one photo of each train in chronological trip order here is the fifteenth train of the trip and the fourth of Day 4. This was also the fourth and last non MRL powered train I'd photograph. An unidentified BNSF manifest rolls west through Billings Yard on MRL's First Subdivision, but the pair of orange GEs are obviously not the focus of this image.

 

BNSF 6989 is a decade old GE ES44C4 and contrasts greatly with number 84, an EMC SW-1 that is 73 years her senior! The little switcher was built by Electro-Motive Corporation and completed June 15, 1939 on OQrder E259 and was originally Chicago, Burlington and Quincy 9139. It later became Burlington Northern 84 until retired by the BN in November 1975. It then spent another decade on the Davenport, Rock Island and Northwestern until coming to Billings Grain Terminal. Now privately owned by friends of mine, getting to see 84 in person was another reason I wanted to make the trek over to Billings. He and his business partners hope to restore her to operation and eventually find a home on a tourist railroad or museum where she can run. To support the effort and learn more check out this link and even buy yourself a shirt, I've got one!

I still live, I’m just more active on Instagram mainly because Flickr, to put it bluntly, is dead as shit.

The engineer and conductor of Maine Northern Railway Train 901-31 converse as they pass the restored station at Oakfield, which is home to the Oakfield Railroad Museum, which is the de facto Bangor and Aroostook museum which is open in the summertime.

 

About 10 cars back a track foreman is keeping a watchful eye as 901-31 crawls over a sun kink on the bridge at the south end of the yard.
