PKP 598007XU - it's funny name, isn't it? :)
This is old manual coal crane. When I saw it in Wolsztyn Locomotive Depot I decided to rebuild it as a Lego Train MOC. It was rather for fun but when finished it became my favourite train MOC.

In 2012, the Association of Chief Police Officers (ACPO) outlined that during international sports events such as the World Cup, reports of domestic violence in the household increase exponentially. Victim Support are determined to ensure that they’re able to raise awareness of the suffering of victims of this terrible crime, and are working with a range of local organisations and charities to help to ensure that while passions may be running high throughout the World Cup, victims of domestic violence are not forgotten.
A football match will be held on 10th May this year at Hyde FC’s football stadium, between a team of former Manchester City players and a combined team of local celebs, leading criminal justice and police staff and community volunteers.
Both teams will be competing for the Linzi Ashton Memorial Cup, in honour of Linzi Ashton who tragically lost her life to domestic violence homicide in 2013 following the injuries sustained from her physically abusive partner at the time. Members of Linzi’s family will be at the ground on the day of the game to present the winners with the trophy.
As well as Linzi’s family, members of the Mercian Regiment will attend the match on 10th May having recently returned from Afghanistan, talking to members of the public about their distinguished bravery in defending the country overseas.
The team of Manchester City Old Boys will be managed on the day by former Macclesfied Town Manager Derek Partridge, while the criminal justice staff will be drafting in the support of leading police staff such as ACC Garry Shewan.
A launch event on Thursday 21 March was attended by former Manchester United and City legends Mike Summberbee, Tommy Booth, Peter Barnes and Alan Grafton OBE, Greater Manchester Police and Crime Commissioner Tony Lloyd and former Happy Mondays singer Rowetta who is proudly supporting Victim Support’s domestic violence campaign. The winner’s trophy was also unveiled.
Tickets are on sale to the public at £5, with all proceeds going to victims of domestic violence. For tickets, please contact Angela Stewart of Victim Support on 0161 968 4986. Alternatively, tickets can be requested by contacting angela.stewart@victimsupport.org.uk or connecting via Twitter at @VS_Manchester
Speaking ahead of the launch, Victim Support’s Patron of this campaign to tackle domestic violence Rowetta said:
“I lived with domestic violence and for a long time, it felt like there was no way out for me or my children, we were drowning in it. Realising the only option was to leave was a difficult one, I left with nothing but now there’s so much more help out there and it’s so much easier to access. Victims need to know about organisations like Victim Support, that are there to help; they need to trust the police and report domestic violence”.
GMPCC Tony Lloyd, who will also be in attendance both at the launch and at the game added:
“This represents a great opportunity to bring together a range of services, local police, community volunteers and celebrities throughout Greater Manchester to raise the issue of domestic violence, particularly during events such as the World Cup when passions in the home are running high.
“Everyone remembers the tragic case of Linzi Ashton, and to be able to compete for a trophy in her honour is a fitting gesture on behalf of everyone involved.”

Arizona National Guard service members prepare and deliver boxes of groceries to area residents Sept. 29, 2020 at a local food bank in Mesa, Ariz. The Arizona National Guard has activated more than 800 Arizona Citizen-Soldiers and Airmen to support community needs during this state of emergency response. (U.S. Air National Guard photo by Tech. Sgt. Michael Matkin).
In 1455, the Poznań burgher Maciej Czarny (Matthew Black), with the support of Bishop Andrzej Bniński, handed over the land to the Bernardines. The monks arrived in the city on Christmas Day 1456 and soon built a wooden church. Already in 1470, the construction of a brick church began. The church in the late Gothic style was consecrated in 1473. The temple received the call of the Holy Cross, the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary and Saint Andrew, Franciszek and Bernardine of Siena, and its founder was Bishop Andrzej Bniński. In 1487, the Custody was established here, which involved the extension of the guardian's authority, which henceforth wore the title of custodian for the surrounding monasteries of the congregation.
In 1609 a Renaissance chapel of Our Lady of Loreta was added to the church.
During the Swedish Deluge, in 1657, the church was set on fire by Brandenburg. The most valuable items from the sacristy and many manuscripts and prints from the rich monastery library were plundered. To this day, they are found in the royal libraries in Stockholm and Uppsala.
Reconstruction began already in 1658 under the leadership of Krzysztof Bonadura the Elder, and then Jerzy Catenazzi. The construction was completed in 1668, and then the bishop suffragan, Maciej Kurski, who was also a St. Bernard, again consecrated the church, giving him the call of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
The temple was severely damaged during a hurricane in 1725. Renovation took place in 1730-1736. At that time, the present elevation and the characteristic two towers with two-sided helmets designed by Jan Adam Stier from Leszno and a group of figures of Franciscan saints in the façade of Franciszek Domsburger from Wschowa were created. In 1742, the chapel of Our Lady of Loreta was added from the south, replacing the Loreto house erected there in 1663, and the renovation was completed by the addition of new organs in 1750.
The end of the existence of the Bernardine monastery was its dissolution made by the Prussian authorities in 1835, in 1839 the church and monastery were taken over by the parish of Saint. Marcin (the last monk, father Julian Fujarski, he died in 1841), and then in 1843 the Middle School of Saint. Mary Magdalene. From that time on, the team acted as a school church.
During World War II, the Germans changed the temple into opera painting workshops. Then all the equipment was destroyed. The buildings themselves were destroyed in 1945, during the liberation of Poznań, when the Germans placed an anti-tank gun in it, making it a point of resistance.
In 1947 the ruins of the band were taken over by the Minorites from the Bernardine Province of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, beginning in 1948 with long-lasting reconstruction. It is true that in 1951 the church was so renovated that it was consecrated, giving today's call, however, the reconstruction was completed only in 1972, and the last work dragged on until 1983, when the reconstruction of helmets and the roof was completed. Later, works on the reconstruction of the interior and the monastery premises were also underway. In 1988, the new wing of the monastery was completed, which took the place of the destroyed during the war, and the chapel from St. Anne. In 1974 a parish was established near the church, where the Church of the Transfiguration in Poznań is also located.
In the meantime, in 1965, the Provincial Chapter decided to put in the monastery a central library of old prints and manuscripts. It was for her that the southern wing of the monastery was added. Since 1991, the monastery and the temple are the seat of the Franciscan province - Saint. Francis of Assisi.
It is a massive, three-nave hall structure on a rectangular plan, with an elongated, lower presbytery which closes a straight wall. From the south adjoins the preserved chapel of Our Lady of Loreta from the eighteenth century in which there is a Renaissance Loretan house originally located in the nave, and from the north of the monastery buildings. From the outside, attention is drawn to the rich, baroque facade with two towers, which are crowned with magnificent helmets, 29 m tall, designed by Jan Adam Stiera.
Between the pilasters and cornices there are niches with figures of Franciscan saints from around 1730, sculpted by Franciszek Domsburger. They present:
in the lower part: Saint. Jan Kapistrana (in the middle) and Saint. Bernardine from Siena, Saint. Franciszek Solano, Saint. James of Marches and Saint. Peter of Alcantara.
in the middle part: Saint. Bonaventure and Saint. Ludwika from Toulouse
in the upper floor of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary and on her sides St. Francis of Assisi and Saint. Antoni Padewski.
Inside, enter the porch, covered with a vaulted ceiling, from where you enter the nave on the rather high stairs up to the nave, and down to the chapel of the Holy Cross and the crypt. The unusual, high position of the floor results from the desire to avoid flooding during Warta's frequent floods. In the porch there is a window, which is a remnant of the original Baroque portal from the 17th century, transformed into a window after 1823. There is a stained glass window from the early twentieth century depicting Saint. Piotr from Alkantra was moved here in 1948 from the church in Panewniki (today Katowice). In the porch, there is also a plaque commemorating Fr. Leona Skórnicki (1891-1965), rector of the church and prefect of the gymnasium of Maria Magdalena.
The interior of the church is covered with a barrel vault with lunettes, and between arcaded pillars there are arcaded passages. The main altar was built after 1950. In its center, there is a copy of Rubens' God's Wrath authored by Józef Pade from 1950. On its sides, sculptures from 1778-1779 by Augustine Schöps, depicting Saint. John the Evangelist and Saint. Józef with Baby Jesus. In the finial of the altar, God the Father.
In front of the altar, also by Schöps, sculptures depicting Saint. Bonaventure, Saint. Bernardine from Siena, Saint. Augustine and Saint. Ambrose.
In the presbytery there are also stalls from 1950-1960, reconstructed according to archival photographs. A passion group from the turn of the 17th and 18th centuries on the rainbow beam. At the first, counting from the presbytery, the pillars on the left are the pulpit crowned with the figure of Christ and on the left a sarcophagus of Mary and above it the scene of the Assumption. Both neo-Baroque equipment elements were created in 1954. Next to the pulpit there is a stylized rococo font.
Side altars were made in 1988-1989 according to the design of Henryk Marcinkowski. In the left in the central part there is a painting of Saint. Józef with Child, and in the finial image of Saint. Anna, Lose with little Maria. On the sides of the sculpture of Saint. Franciszka and Saint. Paschal. In the right altar, the middle is taken by Saint. Antoni Padewski, another painting in the finial presents Saint. John Duns. In the side parts, the sculptures show St. John of Dukla and Bl. Władysława from Gielniowa. All paintings in the side altars were painted by Danuta Waberska, and sculptures were made by Andrzej Biernacki. On the pillars there are 12 figures of apostles standing on the consoles from the side of the nave. Only Saint survived the war. Piotr and Saint. Paweł (the remaining 10 figures of the apostles are reconstructions).
The chapel of the Divine Mother of Loreto closes the early-baroque trellis from 1650. Inside, a contemporary figure of Our Lady of Loretto made by Franciszek Masorz from Rybnik.
The nave from the west closes the empora. with the pillars supporting it, Saint. John Kapistrana and Saint. Francis of Assisi. In the Empire, the organ prospectus from the 19th century was maintained in the neo-baroque style, which came here from one of the post-evangelic churches.
In the chapel of St. The cross, under the floor, is a late-baroque crucifix from the mid-18th century, which was moved here from the Reformed monastery in Wieleń.
In front of the monastery, a small statue of St. Francis of Assisi and the cracked bell of Saint. Franciszka and Saint. Jan Kapistran was cast in 1730 by Poznań Ludwisarzy, hung on one of the towers in 1733 and dropped in 1945.

Yes, I 've stumbled another. This one supported wires over side goods loops, at the south west of Penistone station. It can be found close to the old wartime loading ramp and is visible from the TransPennie trail just on the approach to Penistone Station.
WOODHEAD ROUTE INFO:
The Woodhead line was the Great Central railway route from Sheffield Victoria to Manchester Piccadilly.
It has - well had - a claim to fame as the first electrified main line railway in the UK, when it went live in 1953. Unfortunately, due to the evils of Beeching, the passenger services ceased to be on January 5th, 1970...along with Victoria itself.
Several small intermediate stations had already shut during the years up to its demise, with Neepsend, Wadsley Bridge, Oughtibridge, Deepcar and Wortley all having sold their last tickets by 1968. Wadsley remained partly open for football services until the late 80s, with loco hauled services which required retaining the loop at the western end of the station to change ends.
The line continued as a major goods corridor for several years, although the wires went in 1981. Passenger DMUs from Sheffield to Huddersfield used the route until 1983, reversing and travelling through Victoria, before being route through Barnsley instead. An electrified branch from Wath near Rotherham brought coal trains up via Worsborough - this junctioned with the Barnsley-Huddersfield route near Oxspring.
The GCR track was lifted, from north west of Deepcar, to Hadfield near Glossop, between 1985-86. A surviving single track from Sheffield branches off left towards Stocksbridge steel works.
The trackbed from here continues as The Transpennine Trail today. This tranquil ten-and-a-half mile stretch passes west through Wortley, Thurgoland, Oxspring and Penistone where it junctions with the still current Sheffield/Barnsley-Huddersfield line. The Worsborough line was already lifted by 1981, and is now better known as the Dove Valley trail.
Beyond Penistone the former GC line leaves to head on through Millhouse Green, Hazelhead and eventually Dunford Bridge where the closed Woodhead Tunnel cuts the path short.
The climb up from Penistone was as steep as 1 in 100 and trains that travelled from the Wath line were push-pulled by up to two electric locomotives at each end.
Cyclists and walkers with the strength to continue can climb the near vertical Windle Edge left out of Dunford and then trek over the Pennines to Woodhead Station where the track remerged into daylight. This six mile section onward to Hadfield continues as the Longendale Trail.

Who hasn’t watched the 80s classic films of the Karate Kid franchise? Who didn’t dream of becoming a student of Mr. Miyagi… to wear the black belt or the headband and to spill out in battle?
Let’s go and beat another karate bout together!
The Karate Kid was an adventure that I will always remember fondly, it left a legacy that is now continued with the wonderful series Cobra Kai.
Johnny Lawrence is now facing his childhood opponent and it all starts again… a new dojo, new students, but Mr.Miyagi's iconic dojo house looks very similar to the original.
Therefore I decided to upgrade Mr.Miyagi's beautiful house, which is the only thing that has not changed, the link between the generation of the 80s and today!
Now you can have the opportunity to choose between the two houses you want to assemble! With removable extra pieces you can "paint" the house, renovate its courtyards and live in the era you desire!
Johnny Lawrence: "Strike first strike hard, no mercy, cobra kai never dies"

Mr. Miyagi: "If Karate Used Defend Honor, Defend Life, Karate Mean Something. If Karate Used Defend Plastic Metal Trophy, Karate No Mean Nothing."
A. The front yard is the area where Mr. Miyagi kept his collection of cars, his boat for fishing next to the small water tank.
In the Cobra Kai era, the front yard has Johnny's car, the podium as well as the group training area set by Johnny and Daniel for the young students.
B. The back garden is a beautiful well cared space with Asian elements, plants and trees that depict mr.Miyagi’s love and affection. The wooden decks, the paved floor and the stream that runs across the garden make it complete and unique with a small pool has been added for Daniel’s balance lessons.
c. The house is composed of 3 rooms: one is the dojo, one is where the kitchen and the bedroom are, and the other one is where the small dinner table and the fireplace are. This is the room where Daniel learned “Paint the house” [Fourth lesson] and one of the most rememberable scenes of the movie took place. Mr. Miyagi catches a fly with his chopsticks and explains to Daniel-san that whoever manages to do that can achieve everything.
While creating this model it was very important to keep all the Japanese details of the space like the sliding doors, Mr.Miyagi’s medal and the bonsai he gifted to Daniel for the tournament. The roof is detachable in every room for easy access.

McLane Global employee Daniel Loya in support of the collaborative goal with the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), PepsiCo, and Baylor Collaborative on Hunger and Poverty to deliver nearly 1,000,000 meals per week to students in a limited number of rural schools closed due to COVID-19, Houston, Texas, on March 26, 2020. On March 17, Secretary Sonny Perdue announced the collaboration that provides boxes that contain five days worth of shelf-stable, nutritious, individually packaged foods that meet USDA’s summer food requirements. For this collaboration, the innovative delivery system first waives the congregative feeding requirement, limiting exposure to COVID-19, then following the USDA Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) guidelines, McLane Global purchases the food commodities and stores them in their warehouse until needed by the kitting teams. For this Million Meals collaboration, a 24-hour a day operation has been formed. The kitting teams are McLane Global’s paid employees who package the food supplies. They do this in a dedicated area of their 285k sq./ft facility where they support this and other feeding programs. Completed boxes are palletized for distribution to delivery providers in the south-central US. The final delivery to the student’s homes is done by the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) and other delivery companies. The same SFSP cost per child is maintained by McLane Global for commodities and delivery. This cost is reimbursed by the USDA.
The Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) is a federally-funded, state-administered program. SFSP reimburses program operators who serve free healthy meals and snacks to children and teens in low-income areas. For more information, please see fns.usda.gov/sfsp/summer-food-service-program.
