Unusual Photos.

I grew up in the UK. Class 47's were all over the rail network in the 1970s.

 

The Gas Proof Pram – 1938

 

What is that Neb?

 

A 392 year old Greenland Shark that was located in the Arctic Ocean. He's been wandering the ocean since 1627.

 

Oh my goodness.

 

the 'Pamir' disaster !!!

 

Thanks, Candy Gal, for the engine building newsreel. Many of the operations shown are similar today except computers control the machines and robots place and remove the parts. As one who designed and programmed those machines and robots for 38 years, it was enjoyable to see how they came about.

 

How do researches know?

 

I do try to search for interesting things to add. I will find more.
I am glad you enjoy my findings.

 

The researchers attached a small camera to the shark, and observed it for a long period of time. Finally, when the time came...they were able to count the number of candles on its Birthday cake.

 

for the engineering fans amongst us, this factory wasn't too far from where I grew up, there's a whole series of them about cables.

This one is about Vulcan loco works, was just down the road from me, they made trains that went all over the world.

 

As a kid in the US, I regularly watched a program called Industry on Parade which featured different manufacturing processes. I believe that is what inspired me to become an engineer. Several of the programs are on YouTube.

 

Do you want me to find them and post them here?
