A Photo from Day 8 of a 10 day 9 night "Railway Tour" of 13 Museums and Heritage Railway Locations. The Main Aim was to get as many Steam Train Journeys to add to my Steam Powered Journeys Spreadsheet which is my modern "Trainspotting" record.

 

When planning this "Rail Tour" I had hoped to go the Great Central Railway (GCR) at Loughborough but a lack of Timetables on their web site and a shortage of anything i viewed as attractive in terms numbers of Steam Locomotives in service on this day (Saturday) prompted a change of plan.

 

I decided to go to the Embsay and Bolton Abbey Railway (EBA) in the morning and I can move onto the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway (KWVR) in the afternoon. It is only about 30 minutes by car between the 2 railways.

 

I joined at Embsay and was given a whole compartment to travel in to keep me away from other passengers. I think the railway must have been wanting to be careful and not take any risks of possibly allowing Covid to spread on their Railway.

 

Here, after travelling along the line to Bolton Abbey Station, a Cab Photo of No. 7 "Beatrice" before using the head shunt to enable running round the carriages to get ready for the return journey.

 

"Beatrice" No. 7 is a Hunslet Works No. 2705 0-6-0ST loco.

You know that feeling when you've created a spreadsheet, then spent hours entering data from a paper copy? Then, after a few hours, you think "that's not right". So you investigate, and find out that you haven't been given all the sheets? So now, you need to go through every month, checking if there is missing data?

 

And you lose the will to live?

 

That.

 

I needed a break from the computer. I had a cream cake for afternoon tea break, but needed to wash up first.

 

I've got another task now, so tomorrow will be yet more data entry. Oh, and there is no elegant way to eat a chocolate eclair!

A Photo from Day 6 of a 10 day 9 night "Railway Tour" of 13 Museums and Heritage Railway Locations. The Main Aim was to get as many Steam Train Journeys to add to my Steam Powered Journeys Spreadsheet which is my modern "Trainspotting" record but unfortunately I didn't get any journeys on this day.

 

The Severn Valley Railway (SVR) runs trains along a 16 mile Heritage line from Kidderminster station to Bridgenorth station .Highly is one of the stations along the line and there is The Engine House Museum there.

 

The day I went during the sort of main summer holidays, there were 4 steam Locomotive running on various Steam Excursions where due to Covid19, Compartments were being sold to families and there were some tables for groups of 2 or 4 people but nothing really suitable for the solo traveler.

 

Here, in The Engine House museum very near Highley Station I took this photo of 48773, a Stanier designed and North British Locomotive Company, Glasgow built for the LMS, Class 8F - 2-8-0 loco.

I was trawling through my old HD and I found my first proper comp effort! This is about...ooh, 5 years old or so and was made while I was skiving at work. I should have been filling in spreadsheets I expect.

A Day Trip to the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway for the Saturday of a 3 day Steam Gala,

Weird things happen when you have your dolls in boxes for over a year. Unless you keep a fairly detailed spreadsheet of your little possessions, you completely forget about them. Especially when you have bought, sold, and moved houses on top of usual life stuff while they were in boxes.

 

Isul White Rabbit du Jardin (along with Dal Loa and Taeyang Higekiri) came as surprise when I opened a large carton yesterday. I had completely forgotten I had ordered him last year. UGH!

 

While I'm sure I will debox the Dal and the Tae, I'm torn about this Isul. He's cute, no doubt, but I don't know if I want him in my collection. Guess I will have to let him sit around a bit longer.

So you investigate, and find out that you haven't been given all the sheets? So now, you need to go through every month, checking if there is missing data?

A Photo from Day 2 of a 10 day 9 night "Railway Tour" of 13 Museums and Heritage Railway Locations. The Main Aim was to get as many Steam Train Journeys to add to my Steam Powered Journeys Spreadsheet which is my modern "Trainspotting" record.

 

At Didcot Railway Centre, their Diamond jubilee Gala had 4 steam locomotives with 2 each on the "Main Demonstration Line" and the shorter "Branch Line." 2 diesels powered some early morning and evening trains.

Several Steam Locomotives were also on Static Display and it was possible to go round the sheds.

 

A few photos from a walk round the Sheds.

Here, No. 1 "Bonnie Prince Charlie", (Works No. 7544) is a Robert Stephenson and Hawthorn (RSH) built at Newcastle Works 0-4-0ST on static Display.

October 27th, 2025, will mark the 103rd anniversary of Shuzo Fujimoto’s birth. On this occasion, I’m publishing this picture of Shuzo Fujimoto, taken by

Robert Lang on May 4th, 2006, at Fujimoto’s home in Sasayama, Japan.

 

As a reminder, here are some interesting materials related to Fujimoto that were created for his 100th birth anniversary, 3 years ago, and afterwards:

- Shuzo Fujimoto’s biography (cfcorigami.com/creator/shuzofujimoto)

- A recording of the online event with presentations by myself, David Brill, and Hitoshi Fujimoto, Shuzo’s son (youtu.be/nyIe8akjGTM)

- Five of his books now in the Public Domain (archive.org/search?query=shuzo+fujimoto+origami)

- Photographs of models folded by Fujimoto himself (origami.kosmulski.org/blog/2025-07-21-fujimoto-models-mor...)

- The Catalog of Fujimoto’s Works, CFW (docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1d9jBwBooU1zMYlUSeFOflkoue...)

 

Enjoy, and carry on the work of Shuzo Fujimoto.

When planning this "Rail Tour" I had hoped to go the Great Central Railway (GCR) at Loughborough but a lack of Timetables on their web site and a shortage of anything i viewed as attractive in terms numbers of Steam Locomotives in service on this day (Saturday) prompted a change of plan.

 

I decided to go to the Embsay and Bolton Abbey Railway (EBA) in the morning and I can move onto the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway (KWVR) in the afternoon. It is only about 30 minutes by car between the 2 railways.

 

When I arrived at "ingrow West" Station on the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway (KWVR), there were 2 Steam Trains operating along the line. I missed the USATC 5820 "Big Jim" loco which was powering the other train and waited for the LMS Ivatt loco which was going to Keighley and then going the full length of the line to Oxenhope.

 

Although I would normally get off and photograph the run round etc., the bad weather made me stay put. I didn't get any photos at Keighley but like to get Video of locos going uphill as the line sets off from Keighley.

 

Here, the only photo I am going to share with Flickr users is of 41241 at Oxenhope Station.

41241 is an Ivatt designed and Crewe Works built for the LMS 2MT Tank loco.

 

Shortly after this I return to Ingrow West Station on board a Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway "First Class" restored carriage which costs £2 or £3 pounds as a supplement.

During this journey i met an elderly retired Farmer who was having a very good week using a rail rover ticket.

I need to consider this option for 2022.

Because as a data point, you might just be a cell in a spreadsheet. This is some kind of parking area for a lot of vehicles next to the Philadelphia airport. They look like all white minivans.

I've spent too much time looking at numbers and spreadsheets today. My outing was to somewhere else to look at numbers and spreadsheets.

So, a banker photo that shows a bit of my neighbourhood. The houses on the right were built in the last few years. The ground was empty when I moved here, but for many years there were warehouses on this site. The Albert Dock is on the other side of the buildings.

There are a couple of ships in the distance. One is the Fingal, which is now a floating hotel/restaurant, and isn't going anywhere. The other larger one is the Spirt of Tasmania V, which will go to Australia in a few months.

The temperature was about 7º, but the Met Office app on my phone said it felt like 2º.

This week-end involved 2 Heritage Railways with the Main Aim was to get as many Steam Train Journeys to add to my Steam Powered Journeys Spreadsheet which is my modern "Trainspotting" record.

 

Here, after the Weybourne to Holt trip behind Class 9F Double-Header of Loco 92203 - "Black Prince", a Riddles designed, Swindon Works built - BR Class 9F - 2-10-0 and 90775 a War Department 9F recently named "The Royal Norfolk Regiment", Locomotive no 8572 is starting to form a Double Header for the return Journey to Weybourne.

 

There were 6 Locomotives in Steam for the Gala Event Sunday.

 

Locomotive 8572 is a Holden designed and Bayer Peacock built for the GER (later LNER) Class B12 - 4-6-0

A Photo from Day 2 of a 10 day 9 night "Railway Tour" of 13 Museums and Heritage Railway Locations. The Main Aim was to get as many Steam Train Journeys to add to my Steam Powered Journeys Spreadsheet which is my modern "Trainspotting" record.

 

At Didcot Railway Centre, their Diamond jubilee Gala had 4 steam locomotives with 2 each on the "Main Demonstration Line" and the shorter "Branch Line." 2 diesels powered some early morning and evening trains.

Several Steam Locomotives were also on Static Display and it was possible to go round the sheds.

 

A few photos from a walk round the Sheds.

Normally, I tend to avoid getting photos of buses heading into Kingswood Retail Park, but come on - I couldn't resist this! Two ex-Manchester buses in one go - that'll make some easy work for the spreadsheet! And it's a nice little action shot, too! Moving on from that, two particular features I would like to mention - on 19112, you may just be able to make out where it's Manchester worker bee vinyl, added across the Stagecoach Greater Manchester bus fleet in tribute to those who tragically lost their lives in the 2017 Manchester Arena bombing, had once been placed on the front panel, while 19054 still carries the advertising hoardings of the event that, arguably, doomed us all into this mess, the Cheltenham Festival. Make of that what you will, of course.

 

A very lucky shot that required a fast change of lens, newly-cascaded Stagecoach in Hull 19112, a 2007 ADL Enviro 400 new to Stagecoach in Manchester and latterly based at Middleton depot before recently being transferred to Hull, passes alongside its recently-cascaded sister 19054, a 2006 example also new to Stagecoach in Manchester that up until recently was operating for Merseyside & South Lancashire - still retaining its yellow CCTV stickers from that operation. Both here at Kingswood Retail Park, they are working the 5 and 11 respectively for Hull Interchange.

A Day Trip to the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway for the Saturday of a 3 day Steam Gala,

As Usual, the Main Aim was to get as many Steam Train Journeys to add to my Steam Powered Journeys Spreadsheet which is my modern "Trainspotting" record.

 

There were 2 Visiting Engines and some of 5 of the Home Fleet Locomotives scheduled to run on an intensive timetable.

 

Here, on my first Steam Heritage Railway Visit of 2022, a Cab Photo of 52044 has been the motive power for the journey back down the valley to Keighley Station. after dropping off Taff Vale 85 at Haworth Sheds...

 

52044, is a Barton Wright and Aspinall designed and Bayer-Peacock built 0-6-0, originally for the L&Y as no 957, later renumbered 12044 for the LMS and 52044 for BR.

52044 was the locomotive used as "The Green Dragon" in the 1970 film "The Railway Children".

After a good period of FOMO over not being able to get up to York this year which has resulted in the creation of a York-based spreadsheet, I’ve realised I’ve not quite got enough of York’s buses on this Flickr page in proportion to all that I have taken, especially from my most recent visit there. So, well, exactly one year on from the last time I went to the inner city on arguably a ‘test run’ for my London trip that weekend, here we go!

 

These University buses have always been something quite curious to see in York. And so it seems I'm always struggling to get good photos of them. Perhaps it's down to being in the wrong place at the wrong time except for the railway station? To be quite honest, I'm not sure myself. But back to the FOMO, there is now a new window of opportunity for York for the next time I go - all First York services are being tracked live on bustimes.org! I know where I'm going straight to first when this whole mess is over - if only the rest of First West Yorkshire could be given live tracking, then it would be absolutely perfect!

 

Starting out a good stint of uploads from last year, taken a year to this day is First York's 'yourbus 66'-branded 37066, a 2008 Volvo B9TL Wright Eclipse Gemini with an unintentionally-befitting fleet number which was new to First Bradford, initially branded there for their Leeds-to-Bradford 72 service, however coming to York in mid-2015 and gaining its present route brand upon the awarding of the University of York bus contract to First, is seen here passing through a very busy York Railway Station working a 66 service to the University of York 'Campus East'.

If your team isn't co-located, you can use a spreadsheet or online collaboration tool like BoardThing to map out insights from research.

You know that feeling when you've created a spreadsheet, then spent hours entering data from a paper copy? Then, after a few hours, you think "that's not right". So you investigate, and find out that you haven't been given all the sheets? So now, you need to go through every month, checking if there is missing data?

 

And you lose the will to live?

 

That.

 

I needed a break from the computer. I had a cream cake for afternoon tea break, but needed to wash up first.

 

I've got another task now, so tomorrow will be yet more data entry. Oh, and there is no elegant way to eat a chocolate eclair!

Singapore HDB (Housing Development Board)

yellow pollen loads very clear to see.

 

Salix caprea 'Kilmarnock' has big male catkins which are great for the bees at this time of year.

 

a wonderful bee plant that fits in any garden, easy to control spread and it comes in various pre-set sizes (as it is grafted onto a stem of another willow). Smaller formats do well in a pot.

 

I planted this one about 12 years ago and it has grown pretty well. But for some reason, last year, there were only a handful of the male catkins. The plant seemed otherwise well but i was worried that it might have stopped producing the profusion of catkins that I had come to expect in previous years.

 

I am so glad to see that it has decided to make up for the lack of catkins last year!

A Photo from Day 5 of a 10 day 9 night "Railway Tour" of 13 Museums and Heritage Railway Locations. The Main Aim was to get as many Steam Train Journeys to add to my Steam Powered Journeys Spreadsheet which is my modern "Trainspotting" record.

 

The East Somerset Railway (ESR) runs trains from Cranmore station to Mendip Vale station and back on a 5 mile round trip along its Heritage Railway line.

Along the line, there is also a halt and Cranmore West Station which is near the Sheds.

 

There is ample car parking at the Cranmore end of the line on normal running days so I started there.

 

The day I went during the sort of main summer holidays, there was only 1 steam Locomotive running although (4555) another was at the sheds and could have been steamed if thought necessary.

 

Here, Just outside the Sheds, 4555 is a GWR "Class 45xx" Churchward designed Swindon Works built 2-6-2T Loco.

The Swanage Railway runs trains from Norden via Corfe Castle, another station and a halt to Swanage Station or the other way round so there is some very pleasant scenery to look at and photograph when travelling along the line.

 

There is ample car parking at the Norden end of the line so I started there.

The day I went during the sort of main summer holidays, there were 2 trains running both hauled by Steam Locomotives.

 

Here, 31806, a Maunsell designed SR U Class 2-6-0 loco is ready to go back to Norden while Bulleid Pacific 4-6-2 34028 "Eddystone" is approaching Swanage Station into the other platform.
