Gunnar BergfalkeConstruction site monorail. Very interesting monorail made by made by Road Machines (Drayton) Ltd. My memory is that it's reportedly been used at two construction sites in Sweden, the last Linköping Cathedral renovatin in the 1960s, before being retired to this place in Östergötland. Since I fotographed it, long ago, moved to a place where it will be preserved. <a href="https://mastodon.nu/tags/railroad" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#railroad</a> <a href="https://mastodon.nu/tags/railway" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#railway</a> <a href="https://mastodon.nu/tags/monorail" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#monorail</a>

Forsyth's Compendium of Curious ContraptionsA recommendationI’ve been trying to find out more about a proposal to build a Schwebebahn in Berlin, using the same system as Wuppertal. While working on this, I encountered <a href="https://epilog.de" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">epilog.de</a> – Zeitreisen zur Kultur + Technik (Time Travel through Culture and Technology). If you like this site, and read German, you’ll love Epilog. It’s a publisher’s website, laid out like a newspaper, and it covers all sorts of old technology using period illustrations and the occasional photograph (so, you’ll still get a lot of joy even if you don’t read German). From this site I have already learned that <a href="https://epilog.de/gleiteisenbahn-auf-der-pariser-weltausstellung.zentralblatt-der-bauverwaltung.1889" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">the German for Chemin de Fer Glissant is Gleiteisenbahn</a>, that there was <a href="https://epilog.de/die-atmosphaerische-eisenbahn-bei-st-germain.new-york-times.1852" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">an atmospheric railway near Paris</a>, and <a href="https://epilog.de/luft-eisenbahn-zu-lyon.das-buch-fuer-alle.1873" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">an exhibition in Lyon in 1872 featured a cable-hauled saddlebag monorail</a>. Oh yes, and exactly what I was looking for – <a href="https://epilog.de/eine-schwebebahn-fuer-berlin.bilderreise.1909" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">information on the proposed Schwebebahn in Berlin</a>, including photos of the piece of track erected to show people what it would look like.I mentioned they’re a publisher, and they have an e-book all about the Berlin Schwebebahn, and lots on other topics. One “dead tree” book I am particularly interested in is <a href="https://epilog.de/neue-bahnen-denken.9783758371844" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Neue Bahnen denken – Alternative Schienenverkehrskonzepte im 19. Jahrhundert</a> (Thinking of new ways – alternative rail transport concepts of the 19th century). Their print-on-demand service does ship to Scotland, so no need to bother my friends in Germany.

cleatsandcodeFirst test actual film photo from the large format. I'd hoped to have a more interesting photo but the tide was high and too rough to get to where I wanted with the intention of getting some halation effect on the film. It's also the first lunch break I've been able to take in a long while, so it is what it is. Loving it so far and need to learn more, make some adjustments to the bellows frame as I accidentally knocked the front standard giving a little wierd dpeth of field when it should have been locked.Oh, and developing. No more sloppy habits! clean fingers and clear dust before scanning in. 🤦Nerdy stuff: ------------------------------------ Fomapan 200 4x5 sheet film shot at box speed 1/10 f8Rodinal 1:50 for 10 mins @ 20c<a href="https://mastodon.iow.social/tags/ishootfilm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ishootfilm</a> <a href="https://mastodon.iow.social/tags/largeformat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#largeformat</a> <a href="https://mastodon.iow.social/tags/analoguephotography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#analoguephotography</a> <a href="https://mastodon.iow.social/tags/sheetfilm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sheetfilm</a> <a href="https://mastodon.iow.social/tags/analogphotography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#analogphotography</a> <a href="https://mastodon.iow.social/tags/film" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#film</a> <a href="https://mastodon.iow.social/tags/filmphotography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#filmphotography</a> <a href="https://mastodon.iow.social/tags/isleofwight" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#isleofwight</a> <a href="https://mastodon.iow.social/tags/pureislandhappiness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#pureislandhappiness</a> <a href="https://mastodon.iow.social/tags/mpp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mpp</a> <a href="https://mastodon.iow.social/tags/monorail" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#monorail</a> <a href="https://mastodon.iow.social/tags/bellows" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#bellows</a> <a href="https://mastodon.iow.social/tags/fomapan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fomapan</a> <a href="https://mastodon.iow.social/tags/5x4" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#5x4</a> <a href="https://mastodon.iow.social/tags/rodinal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#rodinal</a> <a href="https://mastodon.iow.social/tags/selfdeveloped" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#selfdeveloped</a>

Rusty CorgiOne thing that kinda stood out was how out of place the Disneyland Monorail felt. It's weird that it only goes to Tomorrowland and the far end of Downtown Disney, but the track goes through the Grand Californian and also goes right between both park entrances, yet there's no stop for either. It's cool that the monorail goes through the park (it started out as a park attraction so that makes sense), but as a piece of transportation that they literally built Downtown Disney around, it feels poorly utilized.Also, as a funny sidenote, the Disney World Monorail was supposed to go through Tomorrowland like it does in Disneyland. The original plan was to build a rail up to another hotel on Bay Lake, but that hotel never got built and the part of the track they had already built into the park is now used as a spur line for the monorail depot. Disney absolutely should've built another Bay Lake hotel and completed the original monorail loop instead of that ugly discount Marriott-looking monstrosity they're stapling onto the Polynesian. :neodog_what:<a href="https://cubhub.social/tags/DisneyLand" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DisneyLand</a> <a href="https://cubhub.social/tags/DisneyWorld" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DisneyWorld</a> <a href="https://cubhub.social/tags/Disney" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Disney</a> <a href="https://cubhub.social/tags/Monorail" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Monorail</a>
