Workmen stand clear as diesel-hydraulic 218 427-3 sets off from Lübeck with a 'DB Regio' service bound for Hamburg Hbf on 10 May, 2001. Electrification of the line to Lübeck and through to Travemünde (on the coast) was on the cards at the time, but was deferred for financial reasons, not being completed until 2008. The crooked semaphore on the left might otherwise have been an early casualty of modernisation!

Returning from the Maritimes, we stopped to camp one night in Parc National de la Jacques-Cartier and visit Quebec City. The Citadelle of Quebec overlooks the St. Lawrence River. Fortifications here began in 1690 and it remains an active military site. I don't recall the nature of this reconstruction.

There's a lot of moss and fallen twigs on my woodshed.

Today it was wet again so I walked Ruby onto the Cuckoo Trail and noticed that the top end had been closed off to everyone. This meant that the trail would be quiet so we walked down to Horam and back 5.1 miles and so half a dozen images one to prove it was raining one of the workmen two of birds and two of the willow catkins full of pollen.

More workmen outside the huge CrossRail development at Tottenham Court Road. In order to look right you have to wear orange hi-viz and a hard hat, clearly.

Workmen repairing the famous Ferry Building clock,

The original clock mechanism was refurbished in 2000 and is complete and intact, despite two previous modifications. Today the Ferry Building still boasts its original Special #4 clock made by the Boston clock maker E. Howard in 1898. It is the largest dialed, wind-up, mechanical clock in the world. The dials are twenty-two feet in diameter. >wiki

Nunhead or Peckham Rye Station (not sure which).

Workmen have been covering up "Don's Johns" on the porta potties on the National Mall in anticipation of Donald Trump's Inaugural. Don's Johns has been supplying portable toilets for events on the Mall for years. But this is the first time their name has been covered up. The mystery was solved when the Architect of the Capitol stated they were covered up to "bring the toilets into compliance with the Capitol’s restrictions on advertising."

I've been to many events on the National Mall. But this is the first time, this has happened. Too bad they forgot to cover the name at this important site, right in front of the Capitol.

Workmen lived and worked from these vans from the early 20th century building the country's roads.

Towed by steam rollers they were in use until the 1950s.

This van is at the East Anglian Transport Museum, Carlton Colville, Lowestoft, Suffolk.

All far too busy to be bothered in what I was up to.

Better viewed large and thank you for your favourites.
