British Railways Standard Class 9F 2-10-0 No. 92207 at Woodham Brothers scrapyard, Barry, Wales on 18th August 1966. Designed by Robert Riddles and built at Swindon Works, it entered traffic in June 1959, as part of lot number 429 (the final order for main line steam locomotives by British Railways). It was withdrawn from 86A Newport Ebbw Junction in December 1964, after only five years and seven months in service and sold for scrap to Woodham Bros of Barry in South Wales where it rested for 21 years and 7 months – four times longer than it was in service with BR – until it became the 180th locomotive to leave the now famous scrap yard, on 21 October 1986. It was purchased and re-named 'Morning Star', with great press and TV coverage, in October 1986.
On 21 December 2005, the locomotive was relocated to the Shillingstone Railway Project on the former Somerset and Dorset Joint Railway, in Dorset, with a view to complete restoration.
The British Railways BR Standard Class 9F 2-10-0 is a class of steam locomotive designed for British Railways by Robert Riddles. The Class 9F was the last in a series of standardised locomotive classes designed for British Railways during the 1950s, and was intended for use on fast, heavy freight trains over long distances. It was one of the most powerful steam locomotive types ever constructed in Britain, and successfully performed its intended duties. The class earned a nickname of 'Spaceships', due to its size and shape.
At various times during the 1950s the 9Fs worked passenger trains with great success, indicating the versatility of the design, sometimes considered to represent the ultimate in British steam development. Several experimental variants were constructed in an effort to reduce costs and maintenance, although these met with varying degrees of success.
The total number built was 251, production being shared between Swindon (53) and Crewe Works (198). The last of the class, 92220 Evening Star, was the final steam locomotive to be built by British Railways, in 1960. Withdrawals began in 1964, with the final locomotives removed from service in 1968. Several examples have survived into the preservation era in varying states of repair, including Evening Star.

I found this on Day One of Boston Comic Con 2012, though I was unable to track down the correct Riddler to give him (or her) the answer. It's "silence." SILENCE!!!

In Riddle, an old mill town at the north end of one of Roseburg Lumber Company's major lumber mills. (Douglas County, Oregon) It appeared the this particular mill was mostly closed down and the town itself looked all but dead except for the grocery store and the school.
My brother's bike was in a magazine in which it was referred to as "the Riddler" haha there you go...
The Riddler is a super-villain enemy of Batman who commits crimes revolving around an obsession with riddles. His mental psychosis results from a deep inner need to prove that he's smarter and therefore better than others, which causes him to leave challenging clues behind in otherwise perfect crimes. This psychological compulsion has resulted in him being repeatedly imprisoned in Arkham Asylum. Despite this obvious flaw, he is otherwise an extremely intelligent criminal mastermind. He has been associated with the Legion of Doom and the Secret Society of Super-Villains.

The continuing story of the Riddle of the Chipmunk: other than wearing my cool, rodent inspired tee shirt, i had more or less let this event pass into antiquity. Antiquity here meaning anything that happened to me yesterday or before. Then i got another email. It was the same feller with the same team of lads (and lasses? they could be coed, i don't know) asking if i had any drawings laying around that would go with their new theme. This year's team is called The Riddlers! No, not as you might suspect, from any great love of flying rodent-themed superheroes, that logic i could have followed but due to their enjoyment from playing guessing games with each other. (What kind of cerebral nerds are these soccer players anyway? Is this common behavior in the breed that plays the beautiful game?) Now i don't have a whole lot in my oeuvre that fits the title, Riddler, so, wanting to avoid copyright infringements and others pitfalls i set out with nothing but this name.
Well to be honest, the only other thing that comes to mind for me is the riddle of the Sphinx. So..
