The modern looking streamlined Peugeot 402 series was presented at the 1935 Paris Motor Show. In the early 1930s revolutionary aerodynamic theories were applied for the first time to mass produced cars. Avant-garde cars like 1934 Tatra 77 and the 1934 Chrysler Airflow gained a lot of positive attention. The 402 was Peugeot's answer to its direct competitor the streamlined 1934 Citroën TA.
The 402 was developed by the Département Études Carrosseries, under supervision of Henri Thomas.
The Peugeot 02-series was also called Fuseau-Sochaux.
The 402 series replaced the predecessors 401 and 601 (from 1934-1935).
Many body variants were available.

Note the lack of a running board, and this convex boot lid. It appeared with the renewed 402 B, and it covers the spare wheel.
Besides several Art Deco details, the headlamps placed behind the grille were very remarkable.

The African penguin (Spheniscus demersus), also known as Cape penguin or South African penguin, is a species of penguin confined to southern African waters. It is the only penguin found in the Old World. Like all penguins, it is flightless, with a streamlined body and wings stiffened and flattened into flippers for a marine habitat. Adults weigh an average of 2.2–3.5 kg (4.9–7.7 lb) and are 60–70 cm (24–28 in) tall. The species has distinctive pink patches of skin above the eyes and a black facial mask. The body's upper parts are black and sharply delineated from the white underparts, which are spotted and marked with a black band.
The African penguin is a pursuit diver and feeds primarily on fish and squid. Once extremely numerous, the African penguin is now the rarest species of penguin, classified as critically endangered, with its population declining rapidly due to a combination of several threats, such as habitat loss, overfishing and climate change. It is a charismatic species and is popular with tourists. Other vernacular names of the species include black-footed penguin and jackass penguin, due to the species' loud, donkey-like noise[3] (although several related species of South American penguins produce the same sound). They can be found along the coast of South Africa and Namibia.
Taxonomy
The English naturalist George Edwards included an illustration and a description of the African penguin in the second volume of his A Natural History of Uncommon Birds in 1747. He used the English name "The Black-Footed Penguins". Edwards based his hand-coloured etching on two preserved specimens that had been brought to London. He suspected that they had been collected near the Cape of Good Hope.[4] In 1758, when the Swedish naturalist Carl Linnaeus updated his Systema Naturae for the tenth edition, he placed the African penguin with the wandering albatross in the genus Diomedea. Linnaeus included a brief description, coined the binomial name Diomedea demersa and cited Edwards' work.[5] The African penguin is now placed with the banded penguins in the genus Spheniscus that was introduced in 1760 by the French zoologist Mathurin Jacques Brisson.[6][7] The genus name Spheniscus is from Ancient Greek word σφήν (sphēn) meaning "wedge" and is a reference to the animal's thin, wedge-shaped flippers. The specific epithet demersus is Latin meaning "plunging" (from demergere meaning "to sink").[8]
Banded penguins are found mainly in the temperate Southern Hemisphere, with the Humboldt penguin and Magellanic penguin found in southern South America and the Galápagos penguin found in the Pacific Ocean near the equator. All are similar in shape, colour and behaviour.

African penguins grow to 60–70 cm (24–28 in) tall and weigh between 2.2–3.5 kg (4.9–7.7 lb).[9] The beak length of the African penguin varies, usually growing between 4.8–6.5 cm (1.9–2.6 in).[10] They have a black stripe and black spots on the chest, the pattern of which is unique to each penguin, like human fingerprints. The sweat glands above the eyes cool the birds' blood and as the temperature rises, increased blood flow causes the glands to get pinker.[11] This species exhibits slight sexual dimorphism; the males are slightly larger than the females and have longer beaks.[12] Juveniles do not possess the bold, delineated markings of the adult, but instead have dark upperparts that vary from greyish-blue to brown; the pale underparts lack both spots and the band. The beak is more pointed than that of the Humboldt penguin. The African penguin's colouring is a form of protective colouration known as countershading. The white undersides of the birds are difficult to spot by predators under the water and the penguins' black backs blend in with the water when viewed from above. African penguins possess supraorbital salt glands located above the eyes that allow them to excrete excess salt from ingesting seawater, an adaptation that helps maintain osmotic balance while foraging at sea.[13]
African penguins resemble and are related to the Humboldt, Magellanic and Galápagos penguins.[14] African penguins have a very recognisable appearance, with a thick band of black that is in the shape of an upside-down horseshoe. They have black feet and black spots that vary in size and shape between individuals. Magellanic penguins share a similar bar marking that often confuses the two; the Magellanic has a double bar on the throat and chest, whereas the African has a single bar. These penguins are sometimes called "jackass penguins", which comes from the loud braying noises they make.
Distribution and habitat
The African penguin is found on the southern and southwestern coast of Africa, living in colonies on 24 islands between Namibia and Algoa Bay, near Port Elizabeth, South Africa.[15] It is the only penguin species that breeds in Africa, and its presence gave name to the Penguin Islands.
Two adults with chicks at the Boulders Beach colony in South Africa
Two colonies were established by penguins in the 1980s on the mainland near Cape Town, namely Boulders Beach near Simon's Town and Stony Point in Betty's Bay. Mainland colonies likely became possible only in recent times due to the reduction of predator numbers, although the Betty's Bay colony has been attacked by leopards.[16][17] The only other mainland colony is in Namibia, but it is not known when it was established.
Boulders Beach is a tourist attraction due to the beach, swimming, and the penguins themselves.[18][19] The penguins will allow people to approach them as close as a meter.
Breeding populations of African penguins are being kept in numerous zoos worldwide. No colonies are known outside the southwestern coast of Africa, although vagrants (mostly juveniles) may occasionally be sighted beyond the normal range.
Population
Roughly 4 million African penguins existed at the beginning of the 19th century. Of the 1.5 million African penguins estimated in 1910, only some 10% remained at the end of the 20th century. African penguin populations, which breed in Namibia and South Africa, have declined by 95% since pre-industrial times.[20]
Today, breeding is largely restricted to 24 islands from Namibia to Algoa Bay, South Africa,[21] with the Boulders Beach colony being an exception to this rule. The total population fell to approximately 150,000–180,000 in 2000.[22][23] Of those, 56,000 belonged to the Dassen Island colony and 14,000 to the Robben Island colony.[24] The colony at Dyer Island in South Africa fell from 46,000 in the early 1970s to 3,000 in 2008.[25]
In 2008, 5,000 breeding pairs were estimated to live in Namibia.
In 2010, the total African penguin population was estimated at 55,000. At the rate of decline seen from 2000 to 2010, the African penguin was expected to be extinct in the wild by 2026.[26]
In 2012, about 18,700 breeding pairs were estimated to live in South Africa, with the majority on St. Croix Island in Algoa Bay.
Wikipedia
The streamlined, aerodynamic Chrysler Airflow, introduced for the 1934 model year, took wind-cheating design beyond what others had been experimenting with and introduced a raft of other innovative design features as well. Chrysler's attempt to jump ahead of the competition was such a dismal failure in the market that the company's designs became conservative for two more decades.
While most automakers of the day still used wood-reinforced metal bodies on a separate steel frame, the Airflow was a unit body design with a full steel body. The conventional inline eight was forward over the front axle allowing for more interior room and a near 50/50 weight distribution.
The Airflow was ahead of its time in use of aerodynamics, unibody design and many other innovations but it also suffered from major defects that affected reliability. Sales were dismal, though the Airflow models, including a DeSoto, lasted until 1937.

The work of Leonardo da Vinci who was sleeping.
That is the number when it was put up for auction.
No sign was written on the work.
So this work couldn't conclude that it was his work.
However # as a result of various appraisals # it was exposed to the sun.
A work that no one notices. A work that speaks quietly without a title.
I will continue to strive to provide it to many people in various ways.

Main story
There are two reasons why a person faces the sea.
One to enjoy a slice of shine in the sea like children bubbling over in the beach.
The other to brush the dust of memory like an old man who misses old days staring at the shine
quietly.
Those lead to only one meaning though they do not seem to overlap. It’s a rebirth.
I face myself to change tomorrow a vague day into something certain.
That is the meaning of a rebirth.
I had a very sweet girlfriend when I was 18.
After she left I knew the meaning of gentleness for the first time and also a true pain of loss. After
she left # how many times did I depend too much on her # doubt her # envy her and keep on telling lies
until I realized it is love?
I wonder whether a nobody like me could have given something to her who was struggling in the
daily life in those days. Giving something is arrogant conceit. It is nothing but self-satisfaction.
I had been thinking about such a thing.
However I guess what she saw in me was because I had nothing. That‘s why she tried to see
something in me. Perhaps she found a slight possibility in me # a guy filled with ambiguous unstable
tomorrow. But I wasted days depending too much on her gentleness.
Now I finally can convey how I felt in those days when we met.

あらすじ
大学を目指している北見ケイは、SNS上で、6歳年上のイベントコンパニオン、上村香織に出会う。
上京してきた香織の夢は、有名なアーティストの友達になるためだ。
そのためにはラジオ局のプロデューサー、大沢亮の存在が必要だった。
大沢は、ラジオの生放送中、香織へ語りかける。
「僕には妻子がある。しかし、僕は君に会いたいと思っている」
ケイの同級生で、彼を想っている三條里香は、香織の動向を探っていた。。。。。
本編
人が海へ向かう理由には、二つある。
ひとつは、波打ち際ではしゃぐ子供のように、今の瞬間の海の輝きを楽しむこと。
もうひとつは、その輝きを静かに見据えて、過ぎ去った日々を懐かしむ老人のように記憶の埃を払うこと。
二つは重なり合わないようではあるけれども、たったひとつの意味しか生まない。
再生だ。
明日っていう、曖昧な日を確実なものへと変えてゆくために、自分の存在に向き合う。
それが再生の意味だ。
十八歳だった僕には大切な人がいた。

"The car body is characterised by its streamlined silhouette, tapered toward the tail, the smooth sides, the raised circular front air intake, which generates the central part of the hood, also circular in cross section. Evidently there is the influence of the aeronautics of the era." - Antoine Prunet, Pininfarina.
Offered here is the very first of Pinin Farina's PF200 show cars, built for promotional purposes to generate publicity and never intended for series production, although Pinin Farina (as it was then) went on to build a further six examples, some open, some closed. The seven PF200s were slightly different from one another, although all featured the signature circular front air intake reminiscent of the North American F-86 Sabre jet fighter. The concept made its debut in 1952 when this very car, chassis number '1004', was displayed on the Pinin Farina stand at the Turin Motor Show. Italian film star and lover of fine cars, Renato Rascel (real name Renato Ranucci) met Sergio 'Pinin' Farina at the 1952 Turin Show and purchased '1004'. The side air intakes and six exhaust pipes are delightful details, while instead of stowing the soft-top behind the seats, like many open cars of the period, Pinin Farina arranged for the PF200's hood to fold down out of sight within the body, thus preserving its streamlined appearance.
The PF200 used the chassis and running gear of the Lancia Aurelia B52, one of the most advanced sporting cars of the era. At this time Pinin Farina had yet to supplant Carrozzeria Vignale as Ferrari's coachbuilder of choice, and much of its best work from this period was on Lancia chassis. One of the most influential designs to emerge from Italy post-WW2, Lancia's classic Aurelia was the first car ever to employ a V6 engine. Designed in wartime by Francesco de Virgilio and launched at the 1950 Turin Motor Show, the Aurelia B10 was powered by a 1,754cc 60-degree V6 of all-aluminium construction that used overhead valves operated via short pushrods instead of Lancia's traditional overhead camshafts.
An advanced unitary-construction design, the Aurelia retained Lancia's 'sliding pillar' independent front suspension, first seen on the Lambda, but used a novel semi-trailing-arm layout at the rear, another world first. The transmission too, was unusual, comprising a two-piece prop-shaft and combined gearbox/rear transaxle on which were mounted the inboard brakes, though for once this was not an entirely new departure. The original B10 saloon was joined the following year by the landmark, Pininfarina-styled B20 Coupé, a fastback '2+2' on a shortened wheelbase which, with its combination of sports car performance and saloon car practicality, can be said to have introduced the Gran Turismo concept to the world. Models with longer wheelbases and larger engines in various states of tune followed. To cater for independent coachbuilders, Lancia offered the longer-wheelbase (291cm) B50 chassis, based on B10 mechanicals, and later the B52, which came with the 2.0-litre engine of the B20/B21. In total Lancia built only 98 B52 chassis, the last of which was delivered in 1953.
Bought new by famous Italian film star, Renato Ranucci, in 1952 at the Turin Motor Show, '1004' changed ownership in 1958 and a couple of times more between then and 1961. It then seems to have remained in the same family for some 13 years before being bought by the current owner in 1974.
A passionate collector of classic cars, with a passion for flying, the current owner is himself a pilot of light aircraft, and during military service also of jets. He found the Lancia in a very poor condition; the car was in pieces but what caught his eye was the circular front air-intake: it looked more like a jet than a car so you can imagine how his passion for cars and aircraft coalesced in the same object - it was love at first sight.
The car was restored in the 1980s by the current owner, who commissioned what were then the best specialists for the job. The painstaking professional restoration took almost 10 years, a period in which the owner and the restorer, Mr. Giancarlo Cappa, became very close friends after doing a lot of research about this Pf200 together. During the restoration and despite the time-consuming research, some details had to be altered as replacements for some of the unique parts were unobtainable. The restoration notes/receipts for 35,000,000 liras are on file, an astronomical amount for a restoration if you know that a monthly salary for a worker at that time was around 300.000/350.000 liras. The car is finished in the lovely colour scheme of dark grey with a tan interior.
Once the Lancia came finally 'home', the owner put the car in one of the living rooms of the main house, which had ramp access. It was here that the family spent most evenings, especially at weekends. The car stood in the middle of the room as the centrepiece. The owner's rationale was very clear: the PF200 is a masterpiece and a work of art, which fully justified having it in your main living room. If you are not driving the car, indoors is the best place to enjoy it the most!
In the 1990s the engine failed and was removed, and it was then decided to replace it with one of an identical type (no. B21*2700*). Unfortunately, the original block was not retained, the importance of 'matching numbers' not being appreciated at that time. Carefully looked after by its long-term custodian, the car is presented today in mainly preserved condition following its 1980s restoration, which is now showing signs of age, especially in the paint. Residing for almost 50 years with the same owner, the car has its own dedicated space in the garage with magnificent 'Lancia PF200' badging on the wall.
On old Italian plates, the car has featured on posters and in magazines, etc and comes with an Italian libretto and a quite exceptional history file. The latter contains important correspondence with Pininfarina dating from 1981, which confirms that the car belonged to Renato Rascel; that it is the example exhibited at the 1952 Turin Motor Show; and that it was the first of a 'series' of seven PF200s of the same type built by hand, each of them different from the others even if only by some small functional or ornamental details, very often requested by the customer. Unfortunately, a fire at the Pininfarina factory destroyed all records of the PF200s and there are no photographs of this car's interior. The fascinating history file also contains lots of other correspondence; various articles; period photographs (1970s onwards); restoration photos (1980s); and the all-important Automobile Club D'Italia document confirming build details and ownership history. With the recent announcement of the re-birth of the Lancia Aurelia model, this unique car will become all-the-more collectible and is a unique opportunity for any major collector.
Norfolk Southern operated N&W streamlined J-class 4-8-4 steam locomotive # 611 and tenders are being prepared, maintained & serviced for the next day Railfan Excursion Train trip departing from Chattanooga, Tennessee, October 1989. Hopper cars filled with coal are along side of the locomotive and tender while awaiting the coal to be dumped into the tender with a bucket crane.
Taken at the RV Hall of Fame museum in Elkhart, Indiana. Quite a remarkable motorhome of the 1930's, following all of the "art deco" streamlined style of that era.

Working as a paramedic requires a streamlined EDC that covers the essentials and skips the superfluous. Here's what I carry:
+ Extra pair of gloves
+ Radio holster + Motorola XTS2500 radio (when at work)
+ Pager
+ Namebadge with assorted keys, reference cards, and so on. On a clip lanyard.
+ 3M Littman Master Classic II Stethoscope—a very solid, high-fidelity tool.
+ Timex analog watch + J.Crew watch band. I won the watch a few years ago from valetmag.com. The watch/band assembly is waterproof and washable.
+ Pilot G2 pens work well but are cheap; I can lend them without hesitation.
+ Sharpie is a less-used but important tool.
+ Rite in the Rain notepad is new; I like the idea, but thus far, I'm not sure if its worth the cost.
+ Smith & Wesson ExtremeOps First Responder knife was really cheap but has performed well. The pocket clip broke but in my pocket it is still easy to deploy, and the seatbelt cutter and glass punch are useful.
+ Surefire L4 Lumamax light is small but packs a lot of light. I supplement with a brighter light and/or headlamp in some night time situations.
+ Maratac trauma shears from CountyComm live up to their marketing. These hold their edge and shape better than any other pair I've owned.
+ Fossil wallet fits in my front pocket and holds a few cards. Wanting to upgrade this but don't know what I want.
There are seven of the streamlined 4-8-2 "Mountain" type engines (numbers 4307 to 4314) assigned to the 909 National Limited, with a rotating pool of rolling repair and preventative maintenance schedules vigorously followed. Here we see engine 4312, it was built in the late 1920's by Lima locomotive Works. It was one of the lucky few of the 50 engines bought by Brick Railway Systems to receive a complete streamlined casing shortly after being assigned to 909 National Limited in 1931, along with six other's of it's type. It is painted in reddish brown with a fluted black side stripe on the engine and black box stripe on the tender to keep it in line with the passenger cars of the 909 National Limited, it's assignment for the foreseeable future.

Notice regarding "Lot No.402_”.
From now on # I will host "Lot No.402_".
The work of Leonardo da Vinci who was sleeping.
That is the number when it was put up for auction.
No sign was written on the work.
So this work couldn't conclude that it was his work.
However # as a result of various appraisals # it was exposed to the sun.
A work that no one notices. A work that speaks quietly without a title.
I will continue to strive to provide it to many people in various ways.

U2 - No Line On The Horizon Live in Dublin

Main story
There are two reasons why a person faces the sea.
One to enjoy a slice of shine in the sea like children bubbling over in the beach.
The other to brush the dust of memory like an old man who misses old days staring at the shine
quietly.
Those lead to only one meaning though they do not seem to overlap. It’s a rebirth.
I face myself to change tomorrow a vague day into something certain.
That is the meaning of a rebirth.
I had a very sweet girlfriend when I was 18.
After she left I knew the meaning of gentleness for the first time and also a true pain of loss. After
she left # how many times did I depend too much on her # doubt her # envy her and keep on telling lies
until I realized it is love?
I wonder whether a nobody like me could have given something to her who was struggling in the
daily life in those days. Giving something is arrogant conceit. It is nothing but self-satisfaction.
I had been thinking about such a thing.
However I guess what she saw in me was because I had nothing. That‘s why she tried to see
something in me. Perhaps she found a slight possibility in me # a guy filled with ambiguous unstable
tomorrow. But I wasted days depending too much on her gentleness.
Now I finally can convey how I felt in those days when we met.

1 Photo exhibition up to that point. Did you want to go?
2 Well # what is an exhibition that you want to visit even if you go there?
3 Challenge to exhibit one work every month before opening a solo exhibition at the Harajuku Design Festa.
4 works are materials and silhouettes. Similar to fashion.
5 Who is your favorite artist? What is it? Make it clear.
6 Creating a collage is exactly the same as taking photos. As I wrote in the interview # it is the same as writing a novel.
7 I want to show it to someone # but I do not make a piece to show it. Aim for the work you want to decorate your own room as in the photo.
8 What is copycat? Nowadays # it is suspected to be beaten. There is something called Mimesis?

Today's photo.
It is a photo taken from Eurostar.
This video is an explanation.
I went to Milan in 2005.
At that time # I went from Milan to Venice.
We took Eurostar into the transportation.
This photo was not taken from a very fast Eurostar.
When I changed the track # I took a picture at the moment I slowed down.
Is there a Japanese beside you?

あらすじ
大学を目指している北見ケイは、SNS上で、6歳年上のイベントコンパニオン、上村香織に出会う。
上京してきた香織の夢は、有名なアーティストの友達になるためだ。
そのためにはラジオ局のプロデューサー、大沢亮の存在が必要だった。
大沢は、ラジオの生放送中、香織へ語りかける。
「僕には妻子がある。しかし、僕は君に会いたいと思っている」
ケイの同級生で、彼を想っている三條里香は、香織の動向を探っていた。。。。。
本編
人が海へ向かう理由には、二つある。
ひとつは、波打ち際ではしゃぐ子供のように、今の瞬間の海の輝きを楽しむこと。
もうひとつは、その輝きを静かに見据えて、過ぎ去った日々を懐かしむ老人のように記憶の埃を払うこと。
二つは重なり合わないようではあるけれども、たったひとつの意味しか生まない。
再生だ。
明日っていう、曖昧な日を確実なものへと変えてゆくために、自分の存在に向き合う。
それが再生の意味だ。
十八歳だった僕には大切な人がいた。

Twin Car 272 seen at Pleasure Beach Blackpool 19/04/14
272+T2 on is one of ten ‘Twin Cars’ created in 1960/1. The power car (272) was rebuilt by Blackpool Corporation from a streamlined English Electric Railcoach of July 1935. The conversion to flat fronted towing car took place between October 1959 and September 1960. Trailer (T2) was built by Metro Cammell of Birmingham and was delivered in July 1960. After use in other formations 272 and T2 were paired from May 1961 and in November 1964 were converted to be permanently coupled with one set of control equipment moved from 272 to T2. This improved their flexibility as they could reverse at crossings, previously they had to reverse at turning circles. The original mainly cream livery was replaced by green and cream with an orange tower.
272/T2 became 672/682 in the 1968 renumbering and continued in use during the summer season – mainly from July to October – with little attention through the 1970s and 1980s. In January 1991 the set was split for works attention which included the first full repaint since 1965! It became the fourth set to gain a new green roof/skirt livery and 672 was also fitted with a pantograph and modified trucks with rubber suspension from a withdrawn OMO tram.
In 2003 672/82 was the first of five sets to have a further refurbishment with heaters, low voltage lighting, retrimmed seats and a full repaint into a new “Metro Coastlines” livery featuring orange and yellow. It retained this until the end of traditional tram operation in November 2011. The tram has been restored to its original livery as 272/T2 and was relaunched on 14 September 2012 as part of the Heritage Fleet.
This is an International Style building constructed in 1935 and considered by some to be in an Art Deco style. Some claim it to be the first major Modernist public building in Britain, although it was actually preceded by some months by the Dutch-influenced Hornsey Town Hall. It is located on the sea front in Bexhill-on-Sea, East Sussex.
It was the result of an architectural competition initiated by Herbrand Sackville, 9th Earl De La Warr, after whom the building was named. A committed socialist and Mayor of Bexhill, he persuaded the town council to develop the site as a public building. The competition for the design attracted more than 230 entrants and the winners, Eric Mendelsohn and Serge Chermayeff, were leading figures in the Modern Movement.
The aesthetics employed in the International Style proved especially suited to the building, tending towards streamlined, industrially-influenced designs, often with expansive metal-framed windows, and eschewing traditional brick and stonework in favour of concrete and steel construction. Amongst the building's most innovative features was its use of a welded steel frame construction, pioneered by structural engineer Felix Samuely. Construction began in January 1935 and the building was opened on 12 December of the same year by the Duke and Duchess of York (later King George VI and Queen Elizabeth).
During WWII, the Pavilion was used by the military and amongst those who served there was noted comedian Gunner Spike Milligan.
In 1986 the Pavilion was granted Grade I listed Building status and in 1989 the Pavilion Trust was formed to protect and restore the building. In 2005, after an restoration and regeneration programme, the Pavilion reopened as a contemporary arts centre.
This green 1930's streamlined caboose was inspired by a very similar real-world Wabash caboose located on the Katy Rail-Trail at St. Charles, Missouri. This caboose model is also inspired build-wise by the Katy Caboose (as in, "The Caboose who got Loose" from the children's book) model I copied in late 2021 from TrainedBricks' MOC.
Norfolk & Western streamlined Powhatan Arrow observation car # 581 is seen with it's train near Singer, Virginia 8-12-1949. The six car Powhatan Arrow is being hauled by a N&W J class streamlined 4-8-4 northern steam locomotive. Note the old style tail end marker lamps being used on the observation car. The observation car has a Powhatan Arrow tail sign located on it's rear door. In my opinion this photograph appears to be a staged event with the train either stopped or moving very slowly as indicated by the lack of smoke from the locomotive and the direction of the steam escaping from the observation car's train-line. Also there are not any people sitting in the rear of the observation car to indicate this is a revenue train trip. Photo courtesy of Sylvain Assez's railroad photo collection. Sylvain is an active French railway locomotive engineer. This photo was most likely taken by the N&W for advertisement. Photographer unknown.
The name of the photographer that took this photo is unknown.

Every now and then I take out my old Santa Fe Super Chief out of its storage boxes for some 9v exercise. I've always enjoyed the design of the set, but now for the first time after 12 years, I felt like it needed a little fresh cell therapy.
What better than a rainy sunday to tinker with it in LDD? And while I was on it, I added the long-overdue B-unit and placed them both in a desert landscape just for fun (and to compensate for the cold rain outside ;-).
Now, modifying such a famous classic model is allways risky, as it might come out worse than the original (hope it's not the case here ;-). Or one could go too far and end up rebuilding it from scratch, which might sometimes be easier and more accurate. But that's not what I wanted - I wanted it to still say "Lego 10020".
So I decided to act very carefully, just stretch the old F unit by 2 studs, smoothen the rough edges and eliminate open studs, while still preserving the characteristics and the playability of the original set. I did add some details here and there, though - it finally has exhaust stacks now, woohoo!
Ah, sweet nostalgia - here I go again, collecting old grey pieces…

The Apple IPod Shuffle exemplifies minimalism in its tiny, elegant streamlined design. It weighs only .44 oz. (12.5 grams), and features 2 GB of storage ! I clip mine on my lapel when I'm out walking, and sometimes sing along (when I think no one is nearby...)

I had to use my older Canon EOS 7D for this image, because my 60mm macro lens is an EF-S lens and cannot be used with the 5D Mark III full frame camera. Two of my collection of 6 lenses are EF-S lenses, but I don't intend to replace them, as I'm sure the 7D will still see regular use.
I set up a mini-studio on my desktop in front of the bay window, with a 12"x12" marble tile for the surface, a gold colored poster board for the background, a light on a stand with an umbrella to camera left, and the camera on a tripod. I messed around with various focus modes and f stops, and used the 2 second timer to eliminate camera shake since focus is so critical in a macro image. 75-100 shutter clicks later, I settled on my favorites!
The doors to the inside open, but there are no interior details. The yellow 1 x 4 bricks (actually supposed to be green) on the sides will have this print: www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=3010pb119...
On Friday 10/9/2021, a late 6KA9 (extra SCT intermodal) is seen approaching Hender road, Cooke Plains (SA) with CLF4-csr003-EL60-sct003 in charge. Signal problems between Kaniva (Victoria) & Coomandook resulted in the train taking longer than expected
On 3rd July 1938 Gresley Streamlined A4 4-6-2 Pacific No 4468 Mallard hit 126 MPH at Stoke Bank Near Grantham Lincolnshire setting the 'World Steam Record' - which still stands to this day.
In July 2013 as part of its '75th Anniversary' the NRM arranged for all six surviving A4 Gresley Pacifics to be re-united for the first time at York. Presented around the Museum' 'Roundhouse Turntable' in various LNER and BR Liveries were:
Dwight D Eisenhower BR No 60008 and Dominion of Canada LNER No 4489 both which travelled from America and Canada and underwent restoration at the NRM to bring them back to their original liveries, Bittern LNER 4464, Mallard LNER 4468, Sir Nigel Gresley BR 60007 and Union of South Africa BR 60009.
On 13th July 2013, before the Museum opened to the public, I was one of 50 'Lucky People' on an early morning photo - shoot.
Pictured left in LNER Garter Blue is 4489 Dominion of Canada, top right from right to left are in BR Green 60009 Union of South Africa, then in LNER Garter Blue 4464 Bittern, 4468 Mallard and 4489 Dominion of Canada. Bottom right is the actual Dynamometer Coach (Attached to Mallard) that recorded its record breaking run.
It was some spectacle and a great lasting memory.
The much anticipated arrival of Coronation Class Pacific No. 6229 Duchess of Hamilton at Locomotive, Shildon yesterday was marred slightly by poor weather, which has limited what I am able to do with the resultant images.
The 38 members of the Coronation and (non-streamlined) Duchess Classes were designed by Sir William Stanier and introduced in 1937. The first four were in the blue livery shown, whilst others were in LMS red with gold stripes as Duchess of Hamilton. Ultimately, the Coronations were de-streamlined as per the Duchesses. Great credit is due to the National Railway Museum for the restoration of Duchess of Hamilton to its original form.
No 6222 Queen Mary was one of the first quartet and was finished in blue and silver livery for the prestigious Coronation Scot streamlined train (although, in practice and despite the stunning paint scheme, only the locomotives were actually streamlined). This digital representation has been prepared with reference to the following website (21-Nov-12).
For further details and illustrations of the complete Corornation Scot train, a visit to the following website is recommended:

LNER Gresley streamlined 4-6-2 No. 4498 'Sir Nigel Gresley' is seen here approaching Lincoln Central on the Sleaford line. Brush Type 4 D1935 [named 'Roger Hosking MA 1925-2013'] is doing the honours providing train heat at the back of the train :)
The loco was working 1Z70 Lincoln Christmas Express excursion from Ealing Broadway, to coincide with the Lincoln Christmas Market - unusually, the loco was turned out in drab black finish, as she would have appeared during the Second World War. A colourful collection of coaches, including a Pullman kitchen car, was in the rake of 11. The tour had been held up on the way, and was running 40 minutes late on arrival!
Note the rather impressive crowd that had amassed on Pelham Bridge to view the arrival :)
LNER Gresley 4-6-2 No. 4498 'Sir Nigel Gresley' was built by the London & North Eastern Railway in 1937. The locomotive was named after the company's then Chief Mechanical Engineer. In 1935 the LNER introduced the streamlined A4 Class locomotives to improve the speed of their trains and compete with the increased competition from road transport. Initially introduced to haul the new Silver Jubilee express between London and Newcastle, the class was an instant success, with 2509 Silver Link, setting a new British speed record of 112 mph on the first press run! In 1936 this was bettered by Silver Fox, another A4 Class Locomotive, before in 1938 a further member of the class, number 4468 Mallard, set an all-time world speed record for steam traction of 126 mph.
During its working life Sir Nigel Gresley was mainly allocated to King's Cross depot, often known as 'Top Shed' and worked King's Cross to York, Leeds, Newcastle & Edinburgh expresses. In the 1960s the locomotive moved to Scotland and hauled the Edinburgh to Aberdeen trains until withdrawal in 1966.
Thirteen years earlier, in 1959 the locomotive had set a post-war world speed record of 112 mph when working a special train from Doncaster to London, and as such was ear marked for preservation. The A4 Preservation Society, now a registered Charity, the Sir Nigel Gresley Locomotive Trust, successfully purchased Sir Nigel Gresley and moved the locomotive to Crewe for overhaul. 'Sir Nigel Gresley' has enjoyed periods of mainline activity since 1967. [Info courtesy of Steam Dreams]

Bulleid streamlined "West Country" class 7P5F 4-6-2 34039 "Boscastle" at Fareham with a Brighton to Salisbury (via Southampton Central) working - c.1958.
Built 1946 by the Southern Railway at Brighton Works, 34039 remained pretty much in original condition until January 1959 when it was rebuilt and its streamlined casing removed. Despite being almost a new locomotive after rebuilding, it survived in traffic only until May 1965.

Norfolk Southern operated N&W streamlined J-class 4-8-4 Northern coal burning steam locomotive# 611 with the details of the coupling between the tender and auxiliary water tender seen at Chattanooga, Tennessee, October 1989. Sometimes a view such as this is interesting for the detailed oriented model railroad fans.
This loco's color scheme was provided by my Meramec River Runner, which kinda mirrors the paint-job of the Empire State Express and the streamlined styling of the 20th Century Limited 4-6-4 Hudson's of the old New York Central. The model's workings were inspired by the two Dreyfuss Hudson locomotives by Anthony Sava, although no instructions were used to build it, I did it all from pictures and my own imagination. (Read: it's not an exact copy, and doesn't pretend to be one.)
Produced for presentation at the 1939 New York World's Fair a booklet issued by one of the railroad greats - the Pennsylvania Railroad and describing the new rolling stock the company was then introducing. This page shows the construction of some of the iconic GG1 electric locomotives designed and built for services on the PRR's flagship route between Washington DC and New York City.
In my opinion, this is probably one of the finest pieces of industrial design ever built - the GG-1 Class electric locomotives of the Pennsy. As is often the case with 'classics' there's been some debate about the precise designer of these fine locos as they are usually credited to the designer Raymond Loewy - however, now, it should be mentioned that the earlier works on this class were carried out by the equally famous Donald Roscoe Dohne. It was certainly Loewy who developed the final shape and livery - green until 1952 and then the classic Tuscan Red used by the Pennsy. The locos, 139 0f them in total, ran between 1934 and 1983. They were built by General Electric and the Railroad's Altoona Locomotive Works and it could be these are the erecting shops at Altoona?
This electric engine (number 9028) was originally designed as a un-streamlined freight workhorse for use in the mountains of the Western half of the North American continent on a electrified section of the Lego-Land Rail-Road mainline back in 1918. The engine uses a unusual 2+C-2-C+2 arrangement, which is code for two un-powered wheels then these are connected to six powered wheels connected to each other by steam-style driving rods. In the middle is a set of completely separate two un-powered wheels, and then six more powered drivers, lastly followed by two sets of non-powered wheels connected to the drivers by a pin.
After serving dutifully for around seven years as a freight loco, the engine was upgraded to a fully streamline-shrouded passenger unit after another of it's eight-strong class was destroyed in a accident with a stuck Shell tanker truck blocking a road crossing. The 9028 was also given a higher gear ratio in it's trucks, to allow for the higher speeds that the passenger schedule called for.
It was around 1932, that the engine type was first given it's title as the "American Crocodile", or the "Alligator", by a senior Swedish railway official on vacation. The name was picked up by local, then national railroad press, and the name stuck from then on.
(In reality, the loco was screaming for new pantograph's due to the old one's breaking, so I gave it some based on set 10277's leaked pictures. Also, this uses eight Big Ben Bricks medium drivers + four blind drivers for the driving wheels where the gears are. I swapped in the new steamer wheels because the regular wheels are getting scarce, and I need to conserve them as much as I can. I ordered the few parts I don't already have to complete this version of the engine today, so they should be here soon... maybe a week or two for the wheels.)
Stowe School's Grade 1 listed Corinthian Arch in Buckinghamshire forms the background to my shot of a Czech Tatra 603 car. The arch dates from 1765, and is attributed to Thomas Pitt, Lord Camelford. There is a three-storey dwelling built into each "leg", but only windows and doors to the side, so normally a viewer looking through the arch towards the school will be unaware of the dwellings.
This particular 603 dates from 1959, though it has been rebodied by Tatra to the later body style. The 603 was a highly advanced passenger car - handbuilt, with a rear-mounted, air cooled V8 engine, electronic controlled ignition (one of the first cars to feature that), all round disc brakes and six-seat limousine comfort, all wrapped up in a spectacular streamlined body.

It is a sad day for lovers of the classic Australian bulldog style of streamlined EMD power. In what is advertised as their last mainline run in NSW this transfer is moving eight Aurizon-owned classics from storage at Ettamogah, near Albury NSW, to Goulburn's CFCLA shop facility where they are to be dispose of. The consist comprises VL358-VL353 hauling d-a CLP10-CLF3-CLP12-42105-CLP13-CLF1-CLF2-CLP11. The CL's , as built, were the last streamlined EMD loco of its type to be built anywhere in the world. Moves are afoot to save at least one of these units as a highly sought after museum piece.
Sir Nigel Gresleys A4 pacific streamlined class locomotives were first used on the world's longest, for the time, non-stop London to Scotland journey. The train was named 'The Silver Jubilee' and thus required matching named engines such as this 'Silverlink'. Resplendent in polished aluminium and grey/blue with black livery and a matching rake of coaches these trains took Britains public by storm in the 30s, however they weren't the first as the LMS Royal Scot took that acalade by 3 days.
My MOC is based on a 7 wide design with working connecting rods and piston gear. I've used SNOT and a reversed building technique around the front area but have cheated with use of custom made parts for the chimney. The wheels are by BigBenbricks and have been painted using Posca paint pens to match the livery. All markings are hand painted on. Hope you enjoy the visuals ;-)
