UP 6938 is an EMD DDA40X locomotive on display in front of Jenks Shop at the Union Pacific facility in North Little Rock, Arkansas.
The EMD DDA40X is a 6,600 HP D-D locomotive, built from 1969 to 1971 exclusively for the Union Pacific Railroad. It is the most powerful diesel-electric locomotive model ever built on a single frame, having two 16-645E3A diesel prime movers.
The first DDA40X, UP 6900, was delivered in April 1969, in time to participate in the celebrations of the centennial anniversary of the completion of the First Transcontinental Railroad driving the "Gold Spike Limited"; it arrived in Salt Lake City, Utah, on the morning of May 10, 1969. In honor of this, the class was nicknamed "Centennials" and the choice of locomotive numbers in the 6900s was made for the same reason. Forty-six more were built between June 1969 and September 1971, numbered from 6901 to 6946.
The DDA40X is 98 ft (30 m) long. The frames were fabricated by the John Mohr Company of Chicago, because they were too large for EMD's factory. The "X" in the model number stood for experimental, as DDA40X Centennials were testbeds for technology that would go into future EMD products. UP frequently used these locomotives to haul heavy freights. Each unit successfully ran about two million miles (3,200,000 km) before they were retired from revenue service in 1985.
On a walk around the city to catch up on the earthquake rebuild of the city. November 19, 2017 Christchurch New Zealand.
Auckland aerosol and stencil artist Hayley King, aka Flox, has taken inspiration from The Wizard of Oz for her new artwork in Plymouth Lane.
She considers there are parallels between the journey undertaken by Christchurch residents after the 2010 and 2011 earthquakes and the classic story, which starts with a natural disaster and sees Dorothy use intellect, heart and courage to find a way through many trials and get back home.
“By referring to the famous line ‘No place like home’, I'm honouring the resilience, tenacity and collaboration of the people of this much loved city,” Ms King says.
The mural spans 75 metres and is broken up into 12 panels. Completing the project involved 13 hours of projection work, 10 hours of stencil cutting and four days of painting during which 52 hand-cut stencils, 55 cans of spray paint and 70 litres of Resene paint were used. Each panel features its own letter and uses stencil designs of plant and bird life as well as some graphically-inspired letters.
I thought I'd give you guys a shot of the back of the house since you haven't seen it before. Sorry for all the crappy WIP shots. I don't put to much time and effort in photographing WIP shot. Building this house is turning out to be more expensive then I thought...

ever wondered how BR MK1 coach E4325 came to be stranded in the original platform 2 at Huddersfield station?. well, it was craned in on a sunday afternoon. here it is, about to lined up for going back on it's bogies. It was a right job getting it under the canopy, the coach roof banged against it at the last moment and there were a few creaking sounds, but nothing broke. the crane driver couldn't see a thing, a skilled radio operator talked the operation through and it was amazing seeing it done. 25th November 1985.
Estudo de Pin up, mais uma da série com cores extravagantes... Eu gosto dessa coisa meio fantasiosa, fazer cores que não se combinam combinarem... =]

Why Ted Gibson loves the roughed up look: "You get a really interesting ponytail rather than the same old version you always wear." At Lela Rose, Gibson spritzed sections of the models' wet hair with hairspray, then rolled the pieces with his fingers while blow-drying for messiness. Laurent Philippon used a crimper to go punk at Monique Lhuillier. Crimp a big front section and pull your hair back, keeping the sides of the pony slick. Secure with an elastic, then crimp down along the tail.
