This week's Saturday Timewatch reveals a most unexpected find in the form of a VR Queen Victoria letter box, in situ and still in use today.
It is hidden away inside the old entrance to the current Young Offenders Institute, Portland. Then known as Portland Prison, the institution was built between 1848-57. Wall box-type post boxes first came into use for fixing into existing walls in 1857. So this could have been a very early example.
The real treat from the summer of course though, was during Goodwood Revival; where around 20 vintage buses descend on Chichester to operate shuttles into a bygone era! My stallion for the event was Stagecoach West's Bristol VR, JOU 160P; oddly the very first time I've driven a Closed Top VR, despite having done thousands of miles on Open Top ones! She is seen here operating late into the night on Serv: 902.
During May 2009 a number of ballast trains were worked by El Zorro between Dimboola and Adelaide using C501 and a smaller loco.
On this particular trip on 19-5-09, C501+16+T386 have arrived back at Serviceton after dropping ballast in the previous section.
Serviceton was the former border station between South Australia and Victoria where loco and crew changes were performed here until the start of through working in the early to mid 1980's.
Serviceton station still stands as a heritage listed building and tourist attraction.

I decided to build a new 'locomotive' for Brickvention, and thought a railmotor would be a quicker and easier build than another steam loco.
Built from 1948, the 102hp and 153hp railmotors consisted of a 4 wheel driving unit with a trailing passenger unit mounted on a single bogie.
The model has a PF train motor under the trailing unit, with the wheels on the motor unit unpowered. The motor and trailing units can slide apart by ~1 stud allowing the railmotor to handle standard Lego curves, but close up on straights and wide-radius curves.
With the annual Torbay half marathon taking place on 26th June this year, the usual diversions were in place, with buses routing via Preston Down, Ring Road & Fleet Street.
Pictured heading up Fleet Street we see Rail River Link's Bristol VR, UWV614S, with the daily 100 Torquay-Totnes service. With the fleet's Bristol VRs in their final summer this could well be the final time we see one of their fine machines making their way through Torquay town center.

Ralph Waldo Emerson. The happiest man is he who learns from nature the lesson of worship.
Lucius Annaeus Seneca: On entering a temple we assume all signs of reverence. How much more reverent then should we be before the heavenly bodies, the stars, the very nature of God!
John Muir: All the wild world is beautiful, and it matters but little where we go, to highlands or lowlands, woods or plains, on the sea or land or down among the crystals of waves or high in a balloon in the sky; through all the climates, hot or cold, storms and calms, everywhere and always we are in God's eternal beauty and love. So universally true is this, the spot where we chance to be always seems the best.
