I will never forgive LaGuardia Airport for designing every aspect of the new terminals in subway tile and art while refusing to allow a subway extension

Covid is not over.

People are still dying and becoming disabled every day.

We rushed “back to normal” for the economy, not because the threat had passed.

When you wear a mask, you’re not only protecting your health, you’re saying you don’t believe anyone is expendable.

Bristol Avon Bridge (EM Gauge) by Keith Sully is an instantly recognisable layout capturing the atmosphere of Bristol Temple Meads in the late 1970s. Look out for the incredible laser-cut overall roof! Seen recently at the Bristol Model Railway Exhibition 🚈 #ModelRailway #EMGauge #ModelTrains

#TodayInHistory: #OnThisDay in 1969, the last train departed for the final ride on the Myrtle Avenue Elevated Line. Running since 1888, the line provided an important connection between Downtown Brooklyn and Queens.

“Engine 25.”

My first Halloween piece, and it’s one from my childhood; Engine 25 from Hey Arnold. I’ve wanted to draw this locomotive in a long time and decided to do it for Halloween.

People have been suggesting features they would pay to use, surely before I got here and definitely after. But you’d rather moderate with sloth and hostility than do something worth people spending cash on.

Idk, sounds like a you problem.

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Majd. Majd is just 23 and was hoping to be a teacher before all this. She has been displaced with her family and they are living in tents, including her sister Ahd who is 20. She is hoping to continue her education and help her family survive❤️

Today's 'rejected' loco is one that was actually rejected in real life!
Before Heywood built the F Class for the GNoSR, Pickersgill proposed an enlarged V 4-4-0, to be the W Class.
This had a higher pitched boiler and taller arc-roofed cab.
Here is an impression of what that may have looked like.
