The lobby, which initially housed the touring bureau, is two stories tall, flanked on each narrow end with large windows rising from balconies at the mezzanine level. Both balconies are decorated with the Chicago Motor Club shield front and center, surrounded by geometric and floral motifs which are also employed on the trim, elevators and grilles. The original lighting fixtures were simple circular designs of frosted glass. Some of the chandeliers were removed in a 1982 renovation and placed in storage, however most of these as well as the original sconces remain in place. Another major alteration to the original design involves the floor, which was likely re-done when after the Chicago Motor Club sold the building in 1986. The original floor is a design of contrasting rectilinear forms most likely executed in terrazzo, while the current floor is a rigid diamond tile pattern.108
Another Saturday clicking away. So busy from now until the end of the year. It is hard to keep up. Hope your are well.
Während heutzutage immer wieder 218er wie die Fliegen von der Wand fallen, gab es vor ein paar Jahren eine wackere Maschine.
Die Rede ist von der Mühldorfer 218 430, welche bei Lokmangel eisern und wacker und vorallem pünktlich! die Schweizer ECs alleine durchs Allgäu wuchtete.
So auch am 12. Juli 2020 wo nach der Arbeit per schlanken Fußes gen Allgäu gedieselt wurde um dem abendlichen EC 190 die Aufwartung zu machen und wieder war es 218 430 die alleine mit dem EC 190 (München Hbf - Basel SBB) bei Wohmbrechts an den Fotografen vorbeihuschte.
Ein knappes halbes Jahr später waren diese Leistungen Geschichte, nachdem die ECS über Memmingen eingeführt wurden.

This fella walked out on the road in front of my vehicle and made his way to the water so eloquently in no time.
Washington County Railroad's (WACR or 'Wacker') Granite District is an 11 mile line that is isolated from the rest of Vermont Rail System; it extends from an interchange with New England Central at Montpelier Jct, through Vermont's state capitol, to the town and city of Barre. The line features grades up to 8% and two switchbacks. Most of the traffic is granite from Websterville that is loaded into gondolas. GMRC 804 and VTR 207 have 10 empties from the interchange heading to Barre to be spotted at the granite loadout.
Wack Wack Golf & Country Club
Mandaluyong City, Philippines
Wack Wack Golf & Country Club is one of the oldest golf clubs in the Philippines, having been founded in 1930 by a prominent American resident William J. Shaw. Established as an exclusive championship course in the then town of Mandaluyong (now Mandaluyong City) in the metropolitan area of Manila, it has consistently been considered as one of the best golf courses in world. It was the home of the Philippine Golf Open Championships, the traditional kick-off site of the annual Asian Circuit, and site of numerous world golf events like the World Cup and others.
Aside from its classic course, the East Course, Wack Wack has been completed another 18-hole all-weather championship course, the West Course. So that now, Wack Wack prides itself as the only golf club with two championship courses in the heart of Metropolitan Manila. The Club maintains its original objective set by its founders, to utilize its luxurious courses towards the development of the sport of golf in the country and establish closer ties between local and foreign golfers.
Wacker Drive at night, looking northeast towards the Wrigley Building, with the city illuminated enchantingly. Captured after the America concert at the Chicago Theatre. There are always amazing views of the city along the Chicago River (to the left of the photo) and in this area of the city.

Auf der Strecke Mühldorf-Tüssling-Burghausen sind hauptsächlich Chemie-Züge für die Standorte Kastl (bzw. Gendorf) und für Wacker Chemie in Burghausen unterwegs. Da ist das Container-Shuttle nach Burghausen eine willkommene Abwechslung. Am 9. August 2010 zogen 217 012 und 217 019 den Zug, als ich ihn zwischen Heiligenstatt und Altötting ablichten konnte.
