This is a Rotary real photograph postcard showing the view from Hungerford Bridge with the old Waterloo Bridge and the Cityscape beyond. The photographer has also captured a London County Council paddle steamer making its way downstream, the paddle steamer dates the photograph from June 1905 until October 1907. The Cityscape shows from the left, the dome of the Central Criminal Court, the Church of St. Brides Fleet St and St Paul’s Cathedral. The ship moored to the north bank is HMS Buzzard which was the Drill ship for the Royal Naval Volunteer Reserve at the time, she was later renamed HMS President in 1911 and became the Headquarters ship.

YJ07JVM continues to wear the Flying Tiger branding for the Leeds-Bradford Airport work which Tiger gave up in summer 2020. YJ07JVM is not long back in West Yorkshire after a stint with parent Arriva in Teesside, which it (obviously) spent in full Flying Tiger colours. Future quite unknown as Yorkshire Tiger is to cease trading later in July. Transdev Team Pennine will take over the work, along with the depots here and at Elland, the staff, and 61 vehicles.
Seen here resting at Waterloo on probably my final visit before the change in ownership. Note that the photo was taken from off the site.

This vehicle began life with Yorkshire Traction, passing to Stagecoach, then Huddersfield Bus Co, and now with Yorkshire Tiger, a wholly Arriva owned company. It most recently wore Centrebus livery, which has been partially removed with the overpainting of the blue skirt into orange, a full version of which has become the Yorkshire Tiger livery. Whether this bus will survive long enough to get a full repaint we'll have to wait and see...

This is a Magic Lantern slide titled Westminster Bridge, over 122 years after its manufacture I am able to correct this mistake and say that this is not Westminster Bridge, it is Waterloo Bridge looking towards the south bank. It shows two Police Constables, one is walking towards the camera after dealing with some sort of incident with his colleague who is apparently still dealing with it whatever it was. The Constable is wearing the 1864 pattern tunic with eight buttons which was replaced in 1897 with the five button and two breast pocket tunic, so the photograph was taken before 1897. He is probably from Bow Street Police Station which was then part of “E” Division, the other officer may be from “L” Division south of the river based at Kennington Police Station. The famous Shot Tower on the south bank can be seen top centre, it was built in 1826 and was the centre piece of the 1951 Festival of Britain, in the early 1960s it was demolished to make way for the Queen Elizabeth Hall. The buildings right middle belong to the Barclay Perkins Lion Brewery. The bridge was designed by John Rennie and opened on the 18th June 1817 by the Prince Regent accompanied by the Duke of Wellington, it was a private venture by the Strand Bridge Company who sponsored three enabling Acts of Parliament the last of which specified that the Bridge should be named the Waterloo Bridge in remembrance of the Duke’s great Victory over Napoleon two years earlier. The company had wanted to name the bridge, the Strand Bridge. The bridge was a toll bridge until 1877 when it was taken over by the Metropolitan Board of Works under the provisions of the Metropolitan Toll Bridges Act, 1877. I like the cameo of the conductor of the single deck bus perched precariously on the small ledge on the back of the bus.
10.3.2017. With nineteen platforms already in constant use, the extension built originally for Eurostar is now being readied for extra suburban train use. Network Rail is spending £800 million to improve services in and out of the station. Britain's busiest station will then have 24 platforms!
Waterloo Village is a restored 19th-century canal town in Byram Township, Sussex County (west of Stanhope) in northwestern New Jersey, United States. The community was approximately the half-way point in the roughly 102-mile (165 km) trip along the Morris Canal, which ran from Jersey City (across the Hudson River from Manhattan, New York) to Phillipsburg, New Jersey, (across the Delaware River from Easton, Pennsylvania). Waterloo possessed all the accommodations necessary to service the needs of a canal operation, including an inn, a general store, a church, a blacksmith shop (to service the mules on the canal), and a watermill. For canal workers, Waterloo's geographic location would have been conducive to being an overnight stopover point on the two-day trip between Phillipsburg and Jersey City.
It is currently an open-air museum in Allamuchy Mountain State Park. As part of the State Park, it is open to the public from sunrise to sunset. The village is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Waterloo bridge occasionally rewards those who walk over it with the most wonderful light. For once I had camera in hand and enough time to wait for the light to pick out St Paul's. Ray Davies of The Kinks wrote a song about the magic of a Waterloo Sunset a little while back.
