The NRM's GNR 0-6-0 Saddle Tank 1247 visited the Middleton Railway at Hunslet in June 1990. Here the visiting loco is put to bed after it's exertions. 24/6/1990
out for a short hike ... captured and uploaded with my camera phone ... as I have no more other camera ...
It's already eight months since the last time I visited my parents, for my winter break. Now I'll enjoy the rest of my autumn break here, together with my sister, niece and nephew.
Here's one from the archive from my homeplace.

Regardless of what your take is on such conversions to classic and once preserved buses, this one is a corker!
935 GTA is an ex Grey Cars AEC Reliance '470 with Willowbrook's 'Viscount' coachwork which was characterised by the inclusion of a Ford Angliaesque rear window.
A quick search for images of it in its recent life as a preserved bus reveals little or nothing so I can't relay much history from that era sorry. Did it ever make 'the rally field' or was it a stalled project since withdrawal?
[Having returned from my two-week photo trip in Saintonge, I resume uploading the rest of my selected photos from 2020 (10 per day, usually in the morning CET), as well as a selection of my current, 2021 photos (usually 3 or 4 per day, in the evening CET).]
The Gers is a small part of the region of Aquitaine, which covers most of southwestern France. On July 2020, we rented a house for three weeks in the Gers area, and commencing today, I will upload a selection of the photographs I took while we were there. I hope you will enjoy them!
As usual, I will caption more specifically in bold type below whenever necessary.
The equally small (but much older: this one if from the mid-1000s, one of the oldest in all of Gascogne!) Romanesque church in the village of Pardailhan (also spelled Pardeilhan) also features a north-facing caquetoire, as the one shown and explained in the previous photo. However, this one was obviously designed from the start as part of the church.

The picnic table was constructed of wood that had been underwater and drilled through by some kind of worm... if I heard Tom's explanation correctly.
Visiting Shadows - Ayrshire
An old couple came to visit a once loved holiday spot and a Dad with his wee son for a bit of fishing. Came for a wee holiday but visited this spot twice as I was impressed with the pier but most of all the folks I came across : )
Just came back from a long and beautiful hike in perfect weather, 16 hours after we left home this morning..
After going by car and ferry to beautiful Rosendal, we walked up to Melderskin mountain at 1426 meters (started walking at 160 m). It was a long, steep and exhausting hike (my now snoring dog agrees☺), but totally worth it!!
The clouds came and went at the top, but it was exciting when we got to see the stunning view. (I'll show you later..)
It was lovely to swim in the fjord afterwords and eat a late delicious dinner outside in the evening sun ツ
I have more images from our hikes around the world here:

[Having returned home and as we inch into late Fall and Winter with no plans for extended photo trips until next year, I resume uploading the rest of my selected photos from 2020 (10 per day, usually in the morning CET), as well as a selection of my current, 2021 photos (usually 3 or 4 per day, in the evening CET).]

Bassoues is a small village nowadays (about 300 inhabitants), yet in the Middle Ages it was believed to have counted some 2,000 souls —not a large settlement by any means, and so it is surprising to find both a large Mediæval castle built around Year 1000 and vastly enlarged between 1350 and 1370 (of which the keep is the most visible remain), and a large Romanesque church also built in the 1000s and elevated to basilica status during the same 1350s.
The reasons behind all this grandeur is that two archbishops of Auch, first during the 14th century, then some 200 years after, took a keen interest in the village over which they had lordly powers. The first archbishop, Arnaud Aubert, was also the pope’s chamberlain, which probably gave him access to substantial financial resources, as accounting books from that time show he spent more than 9,000 pounds in one year on the construction of the castle, quite an enormous sum, back in the day...
Ħaġar Qim is a megalithic temple complex found on the Mediterranean island of Malta, dating from the Ġgantija phase (3600-3200 BC). The Megalithic Temples of Malta are among the most ancient religious sites on Earth, described by the World Heritage Sites committee as "unique architectural masterpieces." In 1992 UNESCO recognized Ħaġar Qim and four other Maltese megalithic structures as World Heritage Sites. V. Gordon Childe, Professor of Prehistoric European Archeology and director of the Institute of Archaeology in the University of London from 1946-1957 visited Ħaġar Qim. He wrote, "I have been visiting the prehistoric ruins all round the Mediterranean, from Mesopotamia to Egypt, Greece and Switzerland, but I have nowhere seen a place as old as this one."
Ħaġar Qim's builders used globigerina limestone in the temple's construction. As a result of this, the temple has suffered from severe weathering and surface flaking over the millennia. In 2009 work was completed on a protective tent.
Remote and rural junction in the middle of nowhere; Titley Junction was over two miles from the village it purported to serve. The Leominster to Kington Railway opened to Kington on 2nd August 1857. In 1862 the railway was leased to the GWR who eventually absorbed it in 1898. The branch from Titley to Presteigne, a distance of 5 and three-quarter miles, was opened on 10th September 1875. Titley was also the junction of the branch to Eardisley on the Midland Railway, via Lyonshall, which opened on 3rd August 1874. This must rank as one of the most obscure branch lines in the country. It was a wartime casualty closing during the 1st World War in 1917, re-opening in December 1922 and then finally on 1st July 1940. The branch to Presteigne closed to passengers on 4th June 1951. The remaining branch from Leominster to Kington lingered-on until succumbing on the 7th February 1955. In this view looking west towards Kington, Titley Junction pays visit to a special visiting the branch in July 1957. The station is still relatively complete at this time still being fully signalled, the box closing just over a year later in August 1958.
