A GMT (Lancashire United) ex-London DMS is seen at Liverpool in July 1981.
Only 8 years old and secondhand already. At least GMPTE (amongst umpteen others!) got some service out of DMSs.
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.

I've been listening to some old Fleetwood Mac.

Not only did they sucker the birthday boy in with a pair of 5 0 candles which resist being blown out, they followed that up with a second cake which actually had 50 candles.
Stamped May 1979.

The Sun Tower, in Vancouver, BC; 1965 at the latest. The signage was removed in December 1965, when the newspaper moved.

It's no secret that CN has an abundance of second-hand lease power on the property to fill their underpowered roster. PRLX SD75M 211 is seen here heading a 6 car, money making M39161 thru the quiet village of Morrice, MI., passing the slow-falling Meal and More elevator site. Time may be running out on the beloved lease units as new CN GE power comes online. A photo is worth a thousand words, the old saying goes, and this one is no exception. A well timed heads up and quick flash set up from good friend and fellow photographer, Kyle Korienek allowed me this shot.
"The buttons on my phone are worn thin
I don't think that I knew the chaos I was getting in.
But I've broken all my promises to you
I've broken all my promises to you.
Why do you do this to me?
Why do you do this so easily?
You make it hard to smile because
You make it hard to breathe
Why do you do this to me?
A phrasing that's a single tear,
Is harder than I ever feared
And you were left feeling so alone.
Because these days aren't easy
Like they have been once before
These days aren't easy anymore.
Why do you do this to me?
Why do you do this so easily?
You make it hard to smile because
You make it hard to breathe
Why do you do this to me?
To me, to me, to me.
I should have known this wasn't real
And fought it off and fought to feel
What matters most? Everything
That you feel while listening to every word that I sing.
I promise you I will bring you home
I will bring you home.
Why do you do this to me?
Why do you do this so easily?
You make it hard to smile because
You make it hard to breathe
Why do you do this to me?
Why do you do this to me?
Why do you do this so easily?
You make it hard to smile because
You make it hard to breathe
Why do you do this to me?
To me, to me, to me."
Secondhand serenade ^ lyrics- and i kidnapped the lyrics title to for the photo title
Mount is stamped "Jul 71." Most likely Ridgewood, New Jersey: there was a Perdue's Sport Shop in Ridgewood, and the internet is silent about any others.
For Guess Where NYC. If you are not in the Guess Where NYC group please do not guess!
I'll have more to say about this if and when it's guessed.
Guess Where: this is from 1975 but little has changed.
UPDATED description: This is a march/protest in support of Soviet Jewry held near the UN. According to the New York Times, over 100,000 attended. The black banner at the back reads "Their fight is our fight."
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.

Did you start singing? Greatest song of all time. Stamped December, 1978. I don't know if it's Disneyland or Disney World, sorry.

I'm wrapping up scanning on a batch of about 2,500 slides I bought on eBay, and it seems as if half of them came from one single family. By no means did I scan them all -- it seems as if the photographer shot as many as (s)he liked, indiscriminately, with little concern for the costs of film and development. Based on what I could discern, that would have been a minor cost to them. I know the town they lived in, I saw the size of their parties, and I saw where they vacationed, their camps: they were not middle class. But something which struck me was the nature of the Christmas presents that were exchanged: many of them seemed homemade or simple, not really mass-manufactured toys. I think that's an interesting contrast. (Frame is stamped "Nov 77.")
