new best friends.
It's a good thing I saved so much money on $1 plates, because these guys set me back 24 bucks! I'm getting to be a real penny pincher!
Found in antique mall in LB on Junipero.
Mitropa, says Wikipedia, was a catering company known for servicing train cars. This is a daycare center (kinderkrippe) of theirs, and I don't know if the word "Betriebs" (company) means they are the company running it or if it is for the company's employees. Stamped October, 1974.
UPDATE: Comments below indicate that it was run by Mitropa for railroad employees' kids.

Pentax ME super /// I carried a table that I bought at a garage sale into a field a while back. For my previous upload, I made a diptych, and now my love for them is reignited. So you might see a few of those in my stream soon. I just think that they tell a better story.

The photographer on this trip has tried to do more than just capture memories.

On 28 May 2000, FreightCorp EMDs 42205/ 42208/ 42215/ 42201 are lined up across from the Dry Creek Motive Power Centre (Adelaide), waiting for reactivation by Australia Southern Railroad. Sixteen of the 20 members of the class had recently been purchased by ASR from NSW operator FreightCorp.
42205 would be overhauled and renumbered 2201 before being sent to the Northern Territory to work Alice to Darwin construction trains in 2002.

A Union Railroad SW1200 and Conrail SW1500 appear to be ready for service at Oak Island Yard. In reality, the URR unit was heading for eventual scrapping at Naporano Iron & Metal a short distance away. The SW1200 was built in December 1954 for the Florida East Coast Railway and was acquired by the Union in 1972. The Conrail unit is also working for its second owner, as it was built for the Penn Central.

After getting off at Central Metro station, I walked west toward BBD Bagh looking for the impressive GPO of Kolkata. Before that I decided to explore the unusual little chinese enclave, the chinatown of India. Thats where I first cam across this little street of secondhand storage stacked with used wooden materials; woodon door, cabinet, window and other dismantled wooden parts, around their makeshift hut. It looks like a squarter but not, yet it has an interesting chracteristic of a living quarter you can only find in the fantasy movie. Kolkata, West Bengal, India.
