One of my favorite catches of the 2022 summer vacations at my family up north.
SM42-349, the last of all SM/SU42 locomotives in PolRegio's fleet in the old Przewozy Regionalne's livery, was deployed for around 3 days in August to run one pair of trains on the Ostbahn between Chojnice and Tczew instead of a Pesa Link, which broke down. Here the evening train can be seen leaving Czersk on the way back to Chojnice, which once used to be called Konitz.
This required me to wake up at 4am to take a train from the tricity to the Ostbahn, spend a whole day there and return back home around 1am the next day, nevertheless I find that it was worth every drop of tear and sweat :).

Xylocopa virginica, more commonly known as the eastern carpenter bee, extends through the eastern United States and into Canada. They nest in various types of wood and eat pollen and nectar. The eastern carpenter bee is similar to most other bee species in that it does not have a queen; in Xylocopa virginica, females are responsible for reproduction, foraging, and nest construction, though they may sometimes have help from their daughters. Xylocopa virginica is sympatric with Xylocopa micans in the southeastern United States.

This was the image prepared in first of the livery of Weardale Motor Services of Stanhope, County Durham - an operator with an exceptionally high standard of turnout. Fortunately it's still with us and, it would seem, doing very well with an expanding fleet in a predominantly white livery. Here we turn the clock back to the company's traditional livery.
I first came across Weardale on a regular basis in the early 1980s, when it was building up an impressive fleet of second-hand, traditional double-deckers for school contracts. Rumour was that it wanted a Routemaster, but this was probably wishful thinking by enthusiasts and it simply didn't happen. The company had hoped to have YUP 6, its preserved Leyland PD2, fully restored for its 85th birthday in 2007. When it became clear that it wouldn't make it in time, I decided to turn out a Routemaster in this commemorative livery. I think that it looks rather good.

St. Mary's by the Sea in its idyllic location looking out to the Coral Sea (even though it looks like a blizzard) in Port Douglas, tropical Far North Queensland. St Mary's by the Sea. During the day, the church is open to the public but unstaffed and as such the altar is left bare to avoid theft.
"The iconic St Mary's by The Sea chapel is one of the most picturesque churches in the country. However, it's wooden and stained glass interior also holds a vivid history.
According to the Douglas Shire Historical Society, the church was blessed and opened on March 6, 1881 on Grant Street. A temporary chapel, later to become the Presbytery, was built in 1878 at an unknown location.
However, the presbytery and church were completely destroyed by a cyclone on March 16, 1911, which left only seven out of 57 houses in the Port Douglas standing and 100 people homeless.
A new presbytery was soon built on the Grant Street site and the second St Mary's was opened and blessed on August 30, 1914.
Come 1986, St Mary's was the only church left in Port Douglas and in danger of being demolished. This was a time of intense development for the town and many buildings had already been demolished. To the local townspeople, it became imperative that the last remaining church of historical significance should be preserved.
The then Douglas Shire Council provided a site at Dixie Street, bordering Market Park, on the undertaking that the relocation work, restoration and ongoing upkeep and maintenance would never become a burden on the ratepayer.
St Mary's church was finally transported to the present site near the Sugar Wharf on November 11, 1988, beginning a long year of restoration by Port Douglas Restoration Society, originally the "Save the Church" group.
After its transportation to the new site, it was renamed St. Mary's by the Sea and underwent tremendous restoration under the guidance of the Port Douglas Restoration Society, with much fund-raising, generosity and goodwill by the local townspeople, finally becoming the much loved icon that it is today.
St Mary's by the Sea is now one of the oldest buildings in Port Douglas and is a non-denominational place of worship and for the conduct of Port Douglas weddings, christenings, memorial services and funerals.
Set in tranquil tropical gardens and parks, the church is surrounded by breathtaking natural scenery including views of the Coral Sea and the surrounding mountain ranges, which can be viewed from inside the church via the magnificent glass altar window.
Ornate tropical flowers are also featured in the stained glass, with highly polished pews and white painted interior making the ideal Port Douglas venue for weddings with couples from across the globe choosing to exchange their vows at the lovely chapel.
Thanks to the Port Douglas Historical Society (www.douglas-shire-historical-society.org ) and Port Douglas Restoration Society Inc (www.portdouglasrestorations.com ) for providing information for this article."

It was built by EMD for the Union Pacific in Sept. 1954, equipped with a steam generator and an 800 gallon water tank for system wide passenger service. The steam generator was removed in 1972 and a 2400 gallon fuel tank installed. The 299 was retired from the roster in July 1982 and sold for scrap to General Metals in Tacoma, Washington on December 24, 1982. (Info via UtahRails.net)
