The 4" KFC-1061S 3-way speakers utilize high-quality woofers and tweeters to bring new clarity and enhanced performance to your car audio system. Polypropylene woofers beef up your music with full, bold sound, so you'll hear the drumbeat and not your own car's rattles and rolls. Balanced-dome tweeters reproduce the musical details that make your tunes sound natural and alive. Hard ceramic passive tweeters fill out the sound spectrum with high-frequency excitement. Car trips go faster with great sound from Kenwood. Grilles are included.

We stay on top of new products and technologies to help people make informed choices. Features Woofers: The woofer cones are constructed from injection-molded polypropylene. This process of cone molding assures a uniform cone thickness for superior linearity and clarity. The cones are lightweight and rigid for low distortion and good bass response. Each woofer uses a treated cloth surround. Tweeters: Each speaker uses a 7/8" PEI balanced-dome tweeter. PEI (Poly-Ether Imide) is a polymer film that has ideal sound characteristics, making it perfect for use as a tweeter. A PEI balanced-dome tweeter produces a wide soundstage for superior imaging. Passive Tweeter: The speaker also utilizes a 1/2" ceramic passive tweeter for added high frequency reproduction. 4/2 Hole Compatibility: The speaker tabs are perforated for easy removal, allowing you to use the speakers in 4-hole or 2-hole (size 4T) applications.

These are the secondary speakers in the back door of my son's volvo wagon. Fit perfect with factory grilles. Descent sound but not expecting much base from a 4". Would purchase again. Was this review helpful? Yes | No 1 out of 5 No Volume Written By Leon, Nashville,TN on Monday, January 26, 2009 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I installed a set of these speakers(4) and had no volume untill turned at least 3/4 of the way up. I was told I had a bad amplifier form your tech assistance at Crutchfield. I knew the amp was good because my test speaker worked just fine at the factory hook ups. I purchased a new set of speakers from the dealer and they worked just fine. Was this review helpful?

Sound is remarkable would buy again Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Excellent Replacements! Written By Matthew, Vermont on Tuesday, October 28, 2008 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I put these in my 91 Lexus LS as a replacement to the aging ones that came stock and they sound EXCELLENT! I turned my volume up all the way and it sounds superb! I would recommend these as a cheap replacement to any other UCF10 LS400 owners. Was this review helpful? Yes | No 2 out of 5 A little disappointing. Written By Matt, MD on Tuesday, October 21, 2008 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I've been using kenwood 4" speakers in my dash for many years, and I always thought they sounded as good as any $100 pair, but this latest set was disappointing. They distorted, and didn't reproduce the higher frequencies as clearly as my older sets of kenwoods. Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 A GREAT FACTORY REPLACEMENT Written By Antonio, Brooklyn, NY on Friday, September 05, 2008 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Definately worth the purchase. I would tell a friend, and as a matter of fact I have, spoken to friends about the speakers and especially Crutchfield. Crutchfield supplies you with more than enough for you to get your monies worth, no one comes close. These speakers work great, the sound quality is clear and crisp. If powered by an amp, I can imagine there real abilities, A REALLY GOOD BUY. Thanks Crutchfield Team. Was this review helpful? Yes | No 2 out of 5 A bit disappointed... Written By Stephen, Tuscaloosa, AL on Sunday, August 17, 2008 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Bought these for a 2001 Honda Odyssey rear speaker replacement, with the factory head unit and no additional amplification. They really don't sound much different from the factory speakers. When I replaced the front speakers some time ago, the improvement was unmistakable so I was expecting greater efficiency (volume) and highs also with rear replacement. They are fairly far away from me in the driver's seat though. Perhaps I was expecting too much but it's disappointing that I have a hard time hearing any difference between factory and these speakers. 3 out of 8 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 4 out of 5 Great little speakers Written By Geren, Columbia, MD on Friday, August 15, 2008 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I just installed a pair of these in the rear of my '99 Rodeo. It took all of 15 minutes, including liberating the speakers from the box! The sound, for a four-inch speaker is pretty decent. In my setup, I've got JVC's SRS-Auto mode on, so they're acting more as surround speakers, and for that, they add great depth to the sound. The fronts are the 5-1/4" version of these same speakers. Once I get baffles made up for the front speakers, the system should really sound pretty darned nice, and will sound even better once I add a small sub under the driver's seat.

Yes | No 4 out of 5 good speakers for the $, great service from Crutchfield Written By Derek, West Linn, OR on Thursday, July 03, 2008 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I replaced the stock speakers behind the seats in my 97 BMW Z3 Roadster. Crutchfield listed these Kenwoods as a fit for my car but that turned out to be incorrect. My 97 Z3 roadster (and it is NOT the M model) has 2" speakers behind the seats and I had to enlarge the holes to fit these Kenwood's in.. it was pretty easy though (gotta love the Dremel :)) and they sound far better than the stock speakers did. Was this review helpful? Yes | No 3 out of 5 Kenwood KFC-1061S Written By Anonymous, NH on Saturday, May 31, 2008 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Replaced rear speakers in my 2001 Honda Odyssey. Very easy to replace. They sound a little better than the factory speakers (which I had to replace as the glue had come lose on one of them). A little better on the highs. Like the factory speakers there is zero bass. 4 out of 4 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Replaced the factory dash speakers on my '87 ranger with these, way better sound quality, but i have to turn it up more to get the same amount of volume out of them. The grilles were pointless, b/c they wouldn't fit into the space for the speaker. Overall, great addition, don't distort till I turn it way up, definitely reccomend them to anyone with 4" factory speakers. 4 out of 4 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 4 out of 5 Good for a 4" speaker Written By ben, Annapolis, MD on Tuesday, March 25, 2008 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) You won't get too much bass out of these, being as they are only 4" speakers, but they beat any oem 4" speakers out there!! The bass IS better, the midrange and treble and just fine. I'd recommend them to anyone with oem 4" speakers who want to improve their system!!!! 3 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 4 out of 5 Decent speakers... Written By J.R., Hampton, VA on Thursday, March 06, 2008 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) These Kenwood speakers aren't the top of the line, but they aren't bad for the price. I wanted to replace the front and rear factory speakers to a 1995 GMC Jimmy 4 Door and I didn't want to spend too much money on it since the truck is pretty old. The front speakers include the speaker bracket and wire harness. The rear speakers do not. You will need to keep the rear factory brackets and drill new holes to mount the new speakers in. You will also have to cut and splice the rear speaker wires to attach it to the new speakers too. If you have a 1995 GMC Jimmy 4dr, you will find out that taking the door panels off isn't as simple as it seems. It's difficult to disconnect the wires to the power locks, power mirror, and power windows. The factory speaker brackets are not screwed in as the crutchfield installation directions state. They are actually mounted in the door frame with rivets. You will need to use a 1/8 drill bit to punch them out. Thanks, Crutchfield, for the product, fast shipping, and support. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Good stock speaker replacement Written By Larry, Orem, UT on Thursday, January 24, 2008 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I replaced the stock rear panel speakers (2001 Honda Odyssey) with these and it made a 100% improvement. Good sound, but not much bass - that's to be expected from a 4" speaker though. Install was soooo easy, took about 10 minutes. Thanks Crutchfield! 3 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Good performing set of 4" speakers Written By John, Plains, MT on Wednesday, February 14, 2007 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I bought this set to replace my stock speakers which I had not been using in my Toyota pickup, Im powering them off my Kenwood Excelon KDC-890 HU ( front - left & right )! I found them to be a good & clear speaker, obviously not a high performance speaker, but, when I need subtle music listening when my amps are off, this was a very good choice. Kenwood has really came along way throughout the years in car audio, and they have a product for everyones needs. I installed ( bass blockers ) on these knowing that I wasnt going to depend on them for my low audio output. All in all, very good product & fits my needs very well ! Justa word of advice always check & closely match your RMS minimum output & in most cases the max as well & remember all types of music & personal choices in music differ from one person to another so choose what fits your ears as well as your budget.

Real Tomato Power: Tomato Paste
Ingredient Spotlight
Don't underestimate the culinary power within a spoonful of tomato paste. This thick, concentrated paste is your secret weapon when it comes to rich yet effortless sauces, stellar marinades, and soups that demand second helpings.
Tomato paste is made from fresh tomatoes that have been cooked down and down and down some more. Maillard reactions from the long cooking give the paste an intense, umami-rich flavor. When used in cooking, tomato paste works as a flavor-booster by adding its own deep savory notes and enhancing the other flavors in the dish.
A little goes a long way with tomato paste, which is why recipes typically only call for a tablespoon or two. If you're making a sauce or a soup, stir the paste into the vegetables along with the other seasonings just before you add the liquids. Tomato paste can also be whisked into a salad dressing or marinade, or even spread thinly on a sandwich like mustard.
You can find tomato paste sold in cans or in tubes. The cans are great for when we need a lot of paste at once, but any unused paste needs to be used or frozen within a week or two. The tomato paste in tubes is protected from the air and keeps for much longer if we're just using a tablespoon at a time. If you find yourself with a glut of tomatoes, you can even try your hand at making your own.
Here are a few recipes that put tomato paste to good use:
• Sweet and Tangy Homemade BBQ Sauce • Eggplant Caponata Sandwiches • Tomato Cilantro Shrimp • Roasted Red Kuri Pumpkin and Coconut Soup • Braised Lamb Shanks and Root Vegetable Puree
Do you ever cook with tomato paste?

Tomato powder is a great option, too, if you only need a little bit (which is often the case for me):
When I first saw the headline of this post, I thought that's what you were talking about. :)
Tomato paste is the best! I freeze whatever I don't use in an ice cube tray, then transfer to a tupperware. Since I'm almost always putting it in soup or sauce, I can just toss the cubes right in.
It really freaks out my partner when he's reaching for ice, though.
I didn't know you weren't supposed to use the whole can for 2 servings of chili... that explains a lot.
I probably go through 3 of the small cans every week (they're actually the best price at my stores), in part because my pizza sauce and marinara are almost entirely tomato paste. The savory sweetness is my favorite flavor in cooking. Couldn't live without this ingredient!

thank you very much(:
who is this?
Wow. I don't think anyone's ever just taken there time to try and make me feel better like you did. and you're a stranger. you're very kind, thank you so much.
No. when people hate, you know it's real. when all you get is nice stuff, you know it's fake. And if you were me, you'd know how depressed I really am. But it doesn't matter
what do you mean.
I miss you so much, i just don't know what to do. I don't want to do anything, go anywhere. I want you back here.
mmk. well, the night we took pictures the flash was too bright and made us squinty. but i'll try and take pictures today(:
thank you very much(: and i have more! should i upload some?

Kitchen Chic
I've spent the weekend up in Stoke with the boyfriend, as he needed to hand in a resit essay and we had some visits with a few of his friends too. More on that in a later post, but here's an outfit post to tide you over for now. The photos were taken in his slightly grotty student kitchen, hence the title! I love, love this dress, it's very versatile and great to just throw on with shorts in warm weather though you do need a top under it due to how low it is. Great for a sunny afternoon in the park.
dress: h&m // tank top: gap // cardi: select

Ah, knew that dress was h&m straight away, I have a similar one :) Looks good with the black top underneath. Mine shows waaay too much cleavage so I've been trying to come up with a solution, and I think a tank top is the trick!ReplyDelete
I love that print! Nicely styled over the jeans too :)ReplyDelete
I love this whole look! I adore your hair and those sneakers, though. I didn't know adidas did anything other than exercise shoes! Cute cute cute, girl.ReplyDelete
love your hair colour, different everytime I come on here :) xReplyDelete

Latest News
August 2014
34028 Eddystone
Eddystone's ticket finally expired on Sunday 17th August, and it now awaits a major overhaul. It ran in service at Swanage right up to the last train that evening, the 22.29 departure from Norden, having taken over the evening trains from the usual DMU.
34028 Eddystone preparing to run round its train at Swanage station on the evening of 17th August, its last day in service.
More photos taken on Eddystone's last day in service can be seen here. Its next move will be a visit to the Great Dorset Steam Fair 27-31st August, then the boiler will be lifted and sent north to Stockton for extensive repairs.
Dave Ensor's view of 34028 Eddystone leaving Corfe Castle, prints of which are available from
his website.
34028 Eddystone overhaul appeal
With major boiler work, a new tender tank, and a complete overhaul of the wheels and motion, Eddystone's overhaul is likely to cost up to £250,000. Our aim is to have it running again in 2017, but that will take a lot of work and money. Once again we are asking our 700 shareholders, and new shareholders, for their support. Richard Green (Locos in Profile) has created a fine art print of Eddystone, copies of which will be exclusively available to those making new share subscriptions.
Full details of this appeal can be found here.
Richard Green's new print of 34028 Eddystone follows his popular prints of Sir Keith Park and
257 Squadron. A copy will be given to each person making a new share subscription during the period of the loco's overhaul.
From the 2003/4 archive - the restoration of 34028 Eddystone
The world was rather different in October 2003; Dirty Den had returned to EastEnders, Brookside had ceased after 21 years, and Iain Duncan-Smith had quit as Tory leader. Into that world arrived 34028 Eddystone on 4th October, running into Swanage station, in steam, for the first time for the benefit of those attending the SLL AGM. Since then Eddystone has been part of the landscape at Swanage, not forgetting its forays to other lines, and life won't be quite the same while it's being overhauled.
SLL's magazine Southern Pacific covered events in those days, and all 21 editions can now be found online. A good place to start is the final restoration report, and looking back it's interesting to see how difficult it was for a biannual magazine to cover rolling events; bring on Facebook, Twitter and the whole interweb thingy!
34028 Eddystone leaving Herston works on 29th September 2003. After its forthcoming 10 year overhaul
it will look like this again, only better!
SLL Annual General Meeting
This year's AGM will be held an the Engine House at Highley station on the Severn Valley Railway on Saturday 27th September. It will start at 14:30. 34053 Sir Keith Park should be in service, so hopefully many shareholders will be able to arrive and/or depart by a train hauled by our loco. The SVR timetable can be found here. Formal notice of the meeting to shareholders will be sent nearer the date.
The Engine House is primarily a museum which houses many locos and wagons not currently in service on SVR. There's also a nice cafe with a first class view of the railway. SLL shareholders coming for the AGM are invited to view the exhibits, and will not be charged for admission, though a donation would be welcome. Coming by SVR train is strongly advised, if only because there's not much parking nearby!
The view from the Engine House cafe - who could ask for more? An area of the cafe will be
reserved for shareholders to congregate and enjoy a cuppa prior to the meeting.
80104's boiler is still being repaired at Adam Dalgleish's workshop in Stockton. More copper stays are currently being replaced in the firebox. It's expected to have a hydraulic test towards the end of August, followed by a steam test in early September.
Apart from use during Swanage Railway's 35th Anniversary event in July Manston has scarcely turned a wheel for the last three months as Eddystone was used as much as possible before it was withdrawn. For the rest of the season Manston is expected to be in regular service, likewise for 2015 until 257 Squadron returns to service. At that point Swanage will be home to two original, working, Bulleid Pacifics - surely unique in post-1968 history. Just think of the photo opportunities that will present.
Unusually, Norman was not running at Embsay & Bolton Abbey Steam Railway in July as it was awaiting its annual boiler examination. The steam test was completed on 8th August, and it's expected to be back in service shortly following installation of a new brick arch.
SLL Photo Gallery
The SLL Photo Archive now contains 35 Albums, with over 2,000 photographs which get at least 10,000 viewings per year. Over the years it's "grown like Topsy" and navigation became a challenge. To address this we've reordered the albums by adding a prefix to each album title, e.g. "(10) 34010 Sidmouth", so that they display more logically. The general sequence is: Locos in BR days, Restoration, SLL locos in heritage use, SLL events. It's best to use the "sort by Album Title" options; Picasa is liable to display the albums in a random fashion when using the other options.
A recent SLL gallery addition - 34028 Eddystone being prepared for service early on 12th August,
six days before it was withdrawn for overhaul.
The law of unintended consequences inevitably struck; changing gallery names breaks links from the SLL website, and over the past five years a lot of these have been built into news stories, etc. Many of these links have now been fixed, but if you spot a broken link please let us know.
On a similar topic, Swanage Railway has recent changed its website and (presently, at least) most of its older news items are no longer visible. Hopefully these will return at some point. Meanwhile, our links to those stories go to the Swanage Railway front page.
And now for something completely different...
Malcolm Garner may live in Bewdley, but he's a regular SLL volunteer at Herston, possibly as his formative years were spent at school in Woking with a good view of Bulleids on the main line. After a career teaching deaf children he now pursues several interests, not least a charity which helps deaf children in Gambia. To raise money to train local staff he's doing a sponsored bike ride later this month. You can find out more here or use this link to sponsor him.
For someone even older than the webmaster, Malcolm is pretty fit, which is just as well if you're
planning to ride 600 miles on a bike. Perhaps using a sledge hammer on a flogging spanner keeps him fit for cycling, or maybe
it's the other way round?

34072 257 Squadron overhaul - in pictures
12th June - hottest day of the year so far - so it's out to the yard to clean up lumps of rusty metal.
Volunteer Chris Worby uses the pneumatic reamer to prepare holes for fitted bolts on the frames of the new tender.
Dave Town fabricated the tank for Sir Keith Park's new tender. His next mission will be a new smokebox for 257 Squadron.
The frames of tender 003 have received a clean undercoat. This may run with Eddystone after its overhaul, while Eddystone's tender (with a new tank) may run with 257 Squadron.
Repairs to 80104
The new boiler inspector deemed that more work should be undertaken on both 80104 and 257 Squadron's boilers than was considered necessary by his predecessor, so the work on 80104 has taken longer than anticipated. A leaking stay in an area which couldn't be accessed without a boiler lift prompted an earlier than expected withdrawal from service. It was illogical to spend money on the problem, having had to lift the boiler, without doing a lot more work on it, bearing in mind it was due for overhaul little more than a year's time. The positive news is that with the complete renewal of all large flue tubes, and the fact that three years ago the locomotive was fitted with new small tubes and elements, 80104 will re-enter service with a ticket for seven years at least.
Much work has taken place in the copper firebox and foundation ring, a new patch inserted in the boiler barrel and many new stays of both the normal and monel variety have been replaced. It is expected to have its hydraulic test before the end of July with the steam test shortly after. The not so good news is that the cost has spiralled to £40,000 so as ever we are grateful for any support you can offer.
34028 Eddystone
Eddystone's ticket expires on 17th August. Meanwhile it is in regular use at Swanage - catch it while you can. After withdrawal it may visit the Great Dorset Steam Fair. Subsequently the tender may head north to Stockton where a new tank is being fabricated. That tender could then be attached to 257 Squadron (with which it ran in the past) while the tender being constructed at Herston could be fitted with the other new tank we have ordered, then run with Eddystone when it re-enters service. Given the good progress being made on the new frames we may send stick with plan A, which was to send them to Stockton first and use them with 257 Squadron.
Prints of SLL locos at work on Swanage Railway
Dave Ensor is a regular local volunteer at Herston works, and he's a man of many talents, not least an excellent photographer. He runs a stall on Swanage station where he sells mounted and framed photos featuring railway scenes to support Swanage Railway.

Dave now offers a selection of his images featuring SLL locos at work on Swanage Railway from a new website, which he will mail to UK addresses. The prints cost just £12.00 inc P&P, and Dave makes a generous donation to SLL if you purchase via the website.
Eurovision Gricing Contest
Yes, once again the plucky lads from Herston works have ventured across the channel in search of steam. This time their destination was Neustadt an der Weinstrasse (that's Newtown in Wine Street.....sounds good already) in the Rhineland, centre of this year's DampfSpektakel. Ignoring distractions such as beer and sausages they travelled across the region to places such as Bad Durkheim, Bad Kreuznack and Bad Hangover, hauled by locos painted in customary black with red wheels. But fear not, they're now all safely back home, and will be sticking strictly to BR Green with Orange and Black lining.

The elegant motion of the German locos is always impressive. 01 202 has extra bling, with polished steel wheel rims.
Sir Keith Park in oils
Kidderminster resident Chris Henry is fortunate enough to live in a house backing on to the SVR. She took the first recorded video of Sir Keith Park running on the line, and joined us for the recommissioning event held last August 31st. Following that she decided to commission an oil painting by well-known railway artist John Austin showing the loco complete with regalia hauling the train up the gradient to Foley Park Tunnel. The Spitfire and Hurricane overhead are a slight artistic licence - the flypast was actually at Bridgnorth station an hour earlier.

34072 257 Squadron overhaul - in pictures
The cladding of the cab is largely new, and it's all starting to look like a cab. This is the work of the "Superior Cladding Department" who report for duty every Tuesday.
Meanwhile up in Stockton (aka: North Swanage) the tank for 34072's new tender is starting to take shape.
34072's corrugated main steam pipes were life expired and are being replaced by plain pipes. These have been delivered with one end flanged. The other flange will be welded in place after assembly.
The new tender frame is still inverted to make it simpler for pipework to be fitted; steam heat, vacuum and water pipes are required.
34072 257 Squadron new middle piston valve liners
One significant task in 34072's overhaul is to fit new cast iron liners to the middle piston valve. The liners fit inside the cylinder chest casting and are in two parts, one for the front ports, one for the rear. They are fitted by immersing them in liquid nitrogen, which boils at a mere -194 degC, by which point they have contracted (by around 16 thou in this case) and will slide into the casting....simples!
SLL contracted Bryn Engineering of Wigan for this job; they specialise in such railway work; in fact their engineers John and Duncan both own steam locos. The LN arrived in a white van holding a large tank, and a vessel was filled and located adjacent to the loco. The front liner was cooled and tried in place; a liner only stays cool enough to fit for a couple of minutes, and as it seemed reluctant to go in straight away it was put back into the coolant while the casting was dressed with a grindstone. Next time it went in straight away. The rear liner also proved a little reluctant, but the whole job was done in a couple of hours.
The two valve liners awaiting fitting into the cylinder block. The top lip positions the casting lengthwise, however the liner must be rotated while very cold to position the ports correctly.
The rear valve liner is held in place while it cools. As the inside cylinder is raise by 8 degrees above the horizontal it might slide out until it's warmed sufficiently to form an interference fit with the casting.
This video shows John and Duncan from Bryn Engineering cooling the liners and positioning them in the cylinder casting.
Manston at WSR
As has been reported, Manston failed on Day 2 of the WSR Gala due to a problem with a loose piston head. This meant it took no further part in proceedings though thanks to hard work from the Swanage loco team it was back in action at Swanage the following weekend. Rather less importantly this put the mockers on our photo competition though we did still get some good entries. SLL Director Simon Troy has selected the three photos below as winners, and the prizes have been sent to the photographers.
First prize has been award to Pam Whitehead her view of Manston with the 13:45 ex-Minehead at
Roebuck Farm, near Crowcombe. 27th March 2014. (c) P Whitehead
Second prize goes to Mark Kirby for this view of 34070 Manston at Sampford Brett, 27th March 2014. (c) Mark Kirby
Third prize goes to Hugh Topham for his photo of both 34070 Manston and 34007 Wadebridge and also 5322 getting ready for the day. 27th March. (c) H Topham
Many thanks to everyone who took part. Thanks also to Pen & Sword Books for providing the prizes. Full screen versions of all of the entries can be seen here.
Sir Keith Park returns to traffic
34053 Sir Keith Park has also re-entered service on SVR following repair of the damage to its inside cylinder, cylinder end cover, piston, and little end suffered on 1st January. This work was undertaken at the Bridgnorth workshops.
Sir Keith Park re-entered service on SVR early in April. Here it's seen on 22nd April hauling a
charter with the headboard, "Les Pantalons Rouges" (the Red Trousers). The significance of the name isn't clear, but apparently a
group from the Ffestiniog Railway were involved. (c) John Oates
Repairs to 80104
Work is continuing on 80104's boiler at Adam Dalgleish Engineering Ltd in Stockton.
34028 has seen regular service in recent weeks. Hopefully it will be running up to the end of its ticket in mid-August, after which it will be out of use for at least a couple of years, as there's still a way to go on 257 Squadron's overhaul. So make a trip to Swanage Railway to see it while you can. Swanage Railway generally show loco schedules for the week ahead here.

And finally.....the Sidmouth Herald features Sidmouth visiting Sidmouth
Back in March the webmaster was minding his own business in Sidmouth Library when he was approached by a reporter from the Sidmouth Herald. "Are you the train man?", he asked. (It's a small town and word gets about.) "Will you write an article for our Nostalgia page? As much as you want, and include some photos." So on 18th April the article was duly published; the theme was obviously 34010 Sidmouth, and in particular its one and only visit to the town's station to be named. That all happened back in 1946, but the local museum (which also features a large panel about 34010) has the newspaper archive with a report of the naming ceremony, next to one of the Mens Bowls team losing!
The webmaster's fame has spread further, being approached by people saying, "I saw your article". He also met Bob Greening, the son of the then Station Master, while coming home from an Exeter City match (City 0 : 1 Northampton, no further comment required.). Bob had missed the ceremony as he was in Germany doing National Service (a full 68 years ago). Sadly his father was not mentioned in the report of the ceremony, nor visible in the photo.
There's never a dull moment in East Devon!
From the Sidmouth Herald, 18th April 2014. These days the Herald includes colour photos, including
the one of Derek Idle's taken at Fleet 50 years ago. In 1946 - 68 years ago - it had no photos at all, and the photo of the naming ceremony, probably
taken by the Southern Railway, came to light some years later.
A full-screen copy of the recent article can be seen here and the 1946 report is here.

80104 - "stuff happens"
Hardly had the ink dried on our February report of 80104's winter service at Swanage when we had a rude awakening. A leaking stay appeared in mid-February and the loco had to be taken out of service. The stay was below the line of the frames making it effectively impossible to replace without lifting the boiler from the loco. Following urgent discussions with Swanage Railway it was agreed to remove the boiler and send it off-site for repairs.
80104's boiler was lifted at Norden on 12th March and sent north for repairs. The plan is for it to return to
service in May.
Preparations were made by railway staff at Swanage MPD, the boiler was lifted at Norden on 12th March, and has headed north to Adam Dalgleish's workshop in Stockton.
The repairs will include replacement of over 100 stays and other work on the firebox. As 80104's tubes were replaced in 2011 the boiler is expected to re-enter service with seven year boiler ticket in May, ready for this year's summer season.

34053 Sir Keith Park
The repairs to the inside connecting rod, bearings, piston and cylinder liner are essentially complete, and Sir Keith Park was steamed on 13th March. While the loco was out of service it received its annual examination, and a range of minor adjustments and repairs were made. Its insurance exam and running in are expected to be done in the week commencing 17th March, and it's expected to return to service in April.
34070 Manston
The new main steam pipes have been fitted, likewise the coupling rods which received attention. Manston is now back in service.
34070 Manston Photo Competition
Sadly Sir Keith Park won't be alongside Manston at the West Somerset Railway in March, but a return visit to Minehead by an original Bulleid is still an event worth recording. So we're asking photographers to send us some of their best photos of Manston during its time there. The Gala dates are 27th to 30th March, and it's likely to be arrive a few days before and leave a few days later; we'll let you know the dates if we have them.
The subject is simple; any photos featuring 34070 Manston during its trip to West Somerset Railway during March/April 2014. It's mainly for fun, but there will be three prizes; newly published railway books kindly donated to us by Pen & Sword Books.
Pen & Sword's new books are, Railway Disasters by Simon Fowler, England's Cathedrals by Train, by Murray Naylor,
and The Quintinshill Conspiracy by Jack Richards & Adrian Searle.
Here are the rules:
The photos must feature 34070 Manston during its visit for the 2014 WSR Spring Gala.
Entrants may submit a maximum of 10 photos, using JPEG format, preferably in the range 500 KB - 2 Mb.
The judge will be Simon Troy, Director of Southern Locos. By submitting entries, the entrant agrees that SLL may publish copies on its website and in its photo galleries. All entries will remain the copyright of the entrant, which will be acknowledged by SLL. We will include all entries in a special SLL photo gallery, and feature the winners and some others on the website.

34053 Reminiscenses
The Winter 2013 edition of Severn Valley Railway News, the magazine for SVR members and supporters, included an article by Derek Tuck recalling his encounters with 34053 in the 1960's. We thought that SLL supporters would be equally interested, so Derek has kindly allowed us to reproduced the article, with minor modifications, below. The Logs of runs Derek made behind 34053 have also been attached to the 34053 Sir Keith Park - BR Service page.
Standing on the footplate of 34053 Sir Keith Park at Kidderminster recently brought back memories of journeys I made with these engines in BR service. With only a few years of steam haulage left, I was keen to collate a record of the day-to-day performances put up by various locomotive types. In the nineteen sixties, the main line trains out of London Waterloo were among the last to remain predominately steam-hauled and, by and large, the Bulleid Pacifics didn't disappoint.
34053 was based at Bournemouth in its later years. As well as running up to Waterloo it hauled
inter-regional services heading north, where the Southern loco would normally run as far as Oxford. Derek Tuck took this photo at Oxford
on 29th August 1964, running to the South Siding prior to hauling the Pines Express to the south, dep 14:04. (c) D Tuck
These were exciting times, as due to an acute shortage of crews at Nine Elms, the South London loco depot responsible, some firemen from the North East, where steam was by now defunct, followed in the footsteps of Mr Bulleid himself, and transferred from the Eastern to the Southern Region of BR. In addition, some of the Nine Elms firemen were promoted to drivers at a relatively early age; some of these crews were keen to have a final fling with steam, and consequently some spectacular performances ensued. It was at this time that I recorded a speed of 105mph behind one of the larger Merchant Navy Pacifics, the highest speed I have personally recorded with steam. The Battle of Britain/West Country light Pacifics, although not being as powerful as the larger Merchant Navy class, were still capable of a fair turn of speed. I have recorded maxima of 98mph both with rebuilt No. 34021 Dartmoor and unrebuilt No. 34102 Lapford. The majority of drivers, especially the old hands, were not interested in being 'boy racers' and simply set out to make the workload as easy as possible for their firemen; this appeared to be the case with all my runs behind 34053.
My first encounter with 34053 was in August 1964; I was travelling from Waterloo to Farnborough, first stop Woking then all stations to Basingstoke. This turn had hitherto been the preserve of either an S15 4-6-0 or BR Standard class 4, and I was surprised to find a Battle of Britain Pacific on the job. Needless to say, with a six-coach load, time was easily kept with no higher speed than 68mph. The table sets out a typical run from Woking to Waterloo with 34053, once again with a light load including a 75mph limit parcels van in the train. I always enjoyed a lively run in from Woking, as there is always a heightened sense of speed travelling through suburbia.

It was in April 1965 that I was able to sample a run with 34053 on a two-hour Bournemouth to Waterloo Express. The train, made up of eleven vehicles, once again included a 75mph limit parcels van. An uneventful run with no higher speed than 69mph brought us into Southampton one minute late. Table 2 sets out the run thereafter and as can be seen from the log, 34053 was never extended, although despite a leisurely run up Winchester bank - 16 miles mostly at 1 in 252 - we were just inside the 37 minute schedule at Worting Junction. On the easier grades to Woking, things continued to be taken gently and by Woking Junction we were two minutes down; an injection of pace followed, and from Woking to Hampton Court Junction, speed averaged 74mph. Unfortunately, a signal stop outside Waterloo station caused a three-minute late arrival. In contrast to this run, and to demonstrate just what these engines were capable of when really extended, in 1967 the final year of steam, I timed a run with No. 34036 'Westwood Ho' hauling a similar load; speeds of over seventy miles per hour were reached up Winchester bank and a maximum of ninety one miles per hour was achieved near Fleet.
The next table sets out a run through the New Forest from Southampton to Bournemouth. Driver Holloway of Nine Elms was in charge of 34053, a modest load of 8 coaches - 270 tons - presented no particular challenge, however with switchback gradients and numerous speed restrictions, this route calls for enginemanship of a fairly high order. A 15mph Permanent Way restriction after Beaulieu Road cost 1½ minutes, but with speed culminating in a 78mph dash down Hinton Admiral bank, Bournemouth was reached well inside the 34 minute schedule. I have enjoyed many footplate experiences on these engines; on one memorable occasion I was riding on 'Battle of Britain' Class No. 34060 25 Squadron. Immediately on leaving Bournemouth, the fireman handed me the shovel: I was to earn my passage! Despite my youth and inexperience, I fired to Southampton in a very awkward manner, but nevertheless the steam pressure held, for the Bulleid boiler is very forgiving. The rostered fireman took over at Southampton, and with a maximum of 85mph at Fleet, we arrived at Waterloo on time. Although I preferred these engines in their rebuilt form, being more efficient and in my opinion more pleasing to the eye, I must concede that the smoothest ride I have experienced on the footplate was on unrebuilt West Country Pacific No. 34103 Calstock in charge of the 'Pines Express' on the Western Region main line from Oxford to Reading West. I was most impressed.
My last run on BR with Sir Keith Park was on the 5.56pm Southampton to Waterloo semi-fast on 30th August 1965. With a thirteen-coach load and continual signal checks, this turned out to be a disappointing finale with this engine. Not being in the best of condition by now, 34053 made heavy work of it, managing no more than 45mph up Winchester bank. As I left the train at Basingstoke, little did I know that in just over a month's time, she would be withdrawn from service, having lasted barely seven years in her rebuilt form. One day, maybe, 34053 will once again show her paces on the main line; until then, let's all enjoy that wonderful three-cylinder sound echoing along the Severn Valley.
Derek Tuck was a regular footplateman in the early years of the SVR.
Images from the past
We're always interested in seeing photos of our fleet of locos, either in action today, rusting in a scrap yard or from their BR days. Those from BR days are particularly interesting, because far fewer photos were taken in the 50's and 60's, and because they represent the times which to some extent we attempt to represent on heritage railways today.
The webmaster met Stuart Davison and his wife Lynn over breakfast at the Little Gem Guest House in Swanage, which is popular with tourists and SLL volunteers. It's odds-on that people staying there plan to visit the Swanage Railway; Stuart was an SLL shareholder and was there for a Drive-n-Fire on Manston the following day.
Stuart had been involved with Manston since the 1980's, and kindly offered to send SLL some of his photos. They are an interesting collection, not least since they fill in some gaps in our records, e.g. several of our locos at Barry, un-restored Manston at Loughborough, and running at NYMR in 2010. Four shots are shown below, which along with some of his others have also been added to the SLL Galleries.

A new deal with Swanage Railway?
We wrote to SLL Shareholders at the end of February to advise them that SLL and Swanage Railway are in discussion about a new long term agreement. Some reports of this have appeared on-line, including the possibility of 80104 being sold to the Swanage Railway. We don't intend to comment at this point except to confirm that some constructive discussions have taken place between us, looking at our separate and mutual needs for the coming years, and there may well be the basis of a new agreement which will benefit both organisations. As usual there is a lot of detail to be resolved, and our discussions are still in progress. When there's an outcome we'll tell you more.

34072 257 Squadron overhaul
257 Squadron has been a hive of activity; with six or more people working on it most days its overhaul is moving forward on all fronts. The photos tell the story:
Some years ago we bought three sets of components to build ashpans for our Bulleids. The third of these will be assembled for use with 257 Squadron, and the set was taken off the rack to help us figure out how it should fit together. Think "Ikea Wardrobe without instructions" and you won't be far wrong.
Improved "easier access" panels have been fitted to the top the oil bath of 257 Squadron. These are fitted with breather caps; the originals were in bad shape so replacements have been made.
Setting 34072's motion and axle boxes has started. The first job is to run a taut piano wire along the axis of the cylinder to its intersection with the centre point of the middle axle box.
Meanwhile, 250 miles north at Adam Dalgleish's workshop in Stockton, work on the boiler has continued. The outer backhead shows a welded insert, repairs to the firehole and new bosses fitted for rear expansion plate.
34053 Sir Keith Park
Most readers will be aware that 34053 suffered a major problem on New Year's Day while in service on SVR, and will be out of service for three months or so. SVR immediately reported the incident to SLL and 34053 was taken to Bridgnorth for investigation. The exact chain of events is not known; water carry-over is a likely cause, though not necessarily at the moment when the failure occured. What is clear is that the piston became detached from the crosshead and wreaked havoc with the middle cylinder. Apparently the safety cotter which holds the main cotter in place, which in turn keeps the crosshead attached to the piston, was sheered off. The result is that 34053 needs a new piston rod and piston head and a new front cylinder cover. The cylinder liner was also damaged.
While repairs started promptly, it was clearly necessary to withdraw 34053 from the WSR Spring Gala, 27-30th March. Doubtless there will be future opportunities for 34053 to appear alongside 34046 Braunton - both Barry no-hopers which have proved the doubters wrong. On the brighter side, Manston will now definitely be travelling to the Gala.
Recent news is that specialist welding has been applied to the front of the middle cylinder liner, and this is now ready for boring. A new piston rod was available and this is being machined for 34053. The new piston head is being machined, likewise the new front cylinder cover, a casting for which was supplied by SLL.
The middle valve was removed for examination and no debris or damage were found. The rear cylinder cover has been examined and is OK. It has been re-fitted with new studs. The broken studs have been removed from the front cover face. The middle big end has been examined and shows some excessive clearance front to back. It will be stripped to check whether there is a problem with the brasses or possibly damage to the bearing surfaces, which would require white metalling repairs.

SVR aim to have the loco back in traffic by early April. At least this damage occured at the start of the quietest period of the operating year, so the impact of SVR services was minor, likewise lost revenue for SLL.
Swanage Railway have extended their operating season this year, and are running every weekend in January, February and March, and every day during half-term week. As Eddystone and Manston are both receiving "close-season" maintenance many of the duties have fallen to Standard Tank 80104. Full details of Swanage Railway services can be found here.

on 30th April 1997. Since then it has visited the Avon Valley Railway, the Mid-Hants and the GCR. It was overhauled in 2005-6, and
its current ticket runs to late 2016.
British Railways Green
What colour was British Railways Green? It's a question that is often asked, and who better to respond than Richard Green, whose Locos-in-Profile fine art prints have featured Bulleid Pacifics in several liveries:
When the Big Four were nationalised to form British Railways, one early task was to choose new liveries for the locomotive fleet. Several different experimental liveries were tried, generally based on those used by the old railway companies, and the decision was made to have four variations. Class 8 passenger locomotives were to be blue with white & black lining with other passenger locomotives in green with orange & black lining. Mixed traffic locomotives were to be black with LNWR lining and freight locomotives just plain black. The blue livery was soon dropped due to it not being hard wearing enough.
The green livery chosen for passenger locomotives was in fact the same as that used by the Great Western Railway, with minor variations to the lining. The green colour used by the Great Western was middle chrome green and this is the colour specified by the Railway Executive with samples sent to the various paint shops. The chrome orange lining used sits very harmoniously on middle chrome green owing to their common origins. However after research into longer lasting finishes the formulation of the green was altered in 1956; this used Monastral blue and a new yellow pigment marketed by ICI and gave a slightly darker shade - nearer deep bronze green. Whether Swindon changed to this new formulation it would be interesting to know! I believe that Deep Bronze Green, produced by Willamsons of Ripon, is now used by preservationist as the best match available.
Brunswick green is often used when describing Great Western and British Railways green, but is completely erroneous and it seems to have been started by the model railway fraternity in the early 1950s. Recently there have been some preserved GWR tanks running around in colours that look suspiciously like proper Brunswick green, so maybe they got what they asked for! Brunswick green can be seen today on preserved SECR locomotives and is sometimes referred to as 'Chatham' green, it also seems to have been the green used by the Great Central Railway.
1. Deep Bronze, as used by BR from 1956 2. Middle Brunswick 3. Middle Chrome, as used by GWR and
originally specified by BR 4. Middle Bronze 5. Olive 6. Deep Brunswick.
So, how to describe the green used by British Railways in any period? Maybe the best option is to just call it BR green!
Some of the above information has been taken from LMS Locomotive Profiles No. 11 : The 'Coronation' Class Pacifics by David Hunt, John Jennison, Bob Meanley, Fred James & Bob Essary. This book gives a complete account of the liveries carried by the Princess Coronations and can be highly recommended to anyone wanting detailed information on the class.

34072 enters Eastleigh for overhaul
34072 entered Eastleigh works for repairs to two sections of its frames.....on 19th July 1956 and stayed there for just over five weeks, leaving on 25th August 1956. SLL volunteer Mike Frackiewicz has been studying the records of our locos and we added copies of 8 interesting documents to the 34072 Gallery starting here.
This 1956 BR diagram shows the position of two cracks in the frames of 34072, one six inches long.
And finally.....all publicity is welcome
The recommissioning ceremony for Sir Keith Park, back in August last year, received wide coverage in the railway press, as
one might expect. It also made the Shropshire Star and other regional newspapers. Still we were surprised when it featured on the front page of the
Parish Magazine of St Peter's Church, Formby. The centre pages had a series of photos showing the loco's restoration from Barry to the present day, and
a two page article on the life of Sir Keith Park, the man. A clue to this very welcome attention might be found on the back cover, which includes
a photo of the magazine's editor, who just happens to be an SLL shareholder and enjoyed a footplate trip on the loco earlier last year.

Graphic Designer. Lover of music, tees, beards and the colour green.
It has been a while since my last post. Since graduating it has been pretty hectic. I have started full time work at The Global Group in Bournemouth. Now a fully fledge Junior Designer. Lots of exciting work.
I have posted this piece I did a while ago whilst working at Global. It was a good opportunity to get some typography involved. These plate liners were designed for Hall and Woodhouse using various food related themes. The blue was famous food sayings, the green was words relating to food and the red (my favourite) song names relating to food. There were lots of them!

Changes To My Book Reviews
I have been doing reviews for over a year now and this weekend I decided that it was time for a change. Now this change is nothing major, it is just a little style change to the format I thought I would give a try. If I don't like it then I'll ditch it and go back to the way things were. So what is this great change I am talking about? With all of my reviews I try to … Continue reading

It doesn't take much to pack for a day hike: throw on a coat, pull on your boots and tuck a beanie in your back pocket in case the weather turns chilly.

What do you get the guy who spends more time sleeping under the stars each year than most people do in their entire lives?

When buying for the discerning backpacker, climber, skier, and general "live larger" type, you can't simply walk into the nearest outdoor shop and buy something flashy.

Getting Over My Broken Heart
It has come to my attention that mending a broken heart is much easier when the person with the broken heart is a female. Females have multitudes of heartbreak routines and a steadfast support system of friends. When a girl gets her heart broken, the immediate remedy is ice cream and The Notebook. After her eyes can no longer produce tears, the circle of girlfriends comes over to bad mouth the heartbreaker. The circle of girlfriends and the heartbroken girl hit the clubs, the mall, or anywhere else where males run rampant. A rebound relationship complete with pictures to plaster all over social networking sites proves that her heart is whole again.
Yes, so much easier being a woman with a broken heart. However, for all the males out there, it is a much more complicated process. My girlfriend and I had been going out for eighteen months. I thought everything was going just dandy. Then, the complaints started.
"Why can't you express your feelings?"
"Why can't you ever be romantic?"
"Why is it always physical with you?"
On and on and on it went. I tried appeasing her grumbles. I tried to limit the amount of time spent on adult activities. I tried throwing out sentences filled with love whenever I could. I tried to please her, but the complaints piled up and soon she was fed up. After eighteen months with the girl I thought I was going to marry, it was over. She was my first love. I was eighteen, and she was seventeen. It was over.
She asked me not to contact her anymore, to make the healing process easier. I tried to focus on my own healing process, yet I did not know how to go about it. This was my first time trying to get over a broken heart. Going to my male friends was not an option. It is said men are not sensitive. This might be a stereotype, yet I found it all too true in regards to my friends. I went into a period of depression. I relived all of our memories repeatedly. What had gone wrong? What could have been different? The few girlfriends I had were amazing and pulled me through. One girl in particular was extremely effective. We went to the same college, and she spent time counseling me every day. She sure was effective. So effective, in fact, that she became my new girlfriend! Five years later, we are still together, engaged and with no complaints!

Hull Stingrays coach still aiming for play-offs
Posted: February 18, 2013|
COACH Sylvain Cloutier admits Hull Stingrays "can't afford to take a night off" if they are to make this season's Elite League play-offs.
Their 2-1 victory over Cardiff Devils was followed by a 4-0 defeat to title chasers Sheffield last night.
Those two results, combined with those of their nearest rivals, leaves the Rapid Solicitors Stingrays bottom of the table.
They now have just 10 matches to make up the five-point gap to the top-eight play-off places.
Related content
Asked if it's now a case of points rather than performances which count, Cloutier said: "It's all about finding a way to get points at this time of year, we can't afford to have a night off.
"If the guys can't get excited about games at this stage of the year then they'll never get excited about anything."
On Saturday, a Jesse Gimblett tip-in and Dominic Osman wrap-around left it 1-1 at the first period break.
It stayed that way – thanks to the efforts of keepers Ben Bowns and Chris Whitley and poor finishing – until Kurtis Dulle struck a powerplay winner inside the last three minutes.
It was not a classic by any means.
Stingrays were hampered by missing Jason Silverthorn (suspended) and Cale Tanaka (injured), while Cardiff lost Max Birbraer during the game after a crunching Martin Ondrej hit, who joined Mac Faulkner (injured) on the sidelines.
"We found a way to get a good win against a top-five team, it was a big two points for us," reflected Cloutier.
"I think we were pretty solid for the whole 60 minutes and we played smart, which was good to see."
Unfortunately, Stingrays could not follow up that win – their fourth in five attempts against the Devils this season – with another in Sheffield last night.
Steelers were good value for their victory with Shawn Limpright's double leaving it 2-0 at the first interval. Simon Ferguson added a powerplay third just before half-way, Limpright completing his hat-trick in the final minute.
"It was disappointing not to get anything out of the game," said Cloutier, after his side lost for a fifth time this season to their South Yorkshire rivals.
"We showed character and grit, but just couldn't find a way to score a goal.
"However, we played two of the big five teams in the league this weekend, so you have to be happy with two points.
"Now we've just got to re-group for Fife and Braehead next weekend because they are massive games for us."

I was in a toy store yesterday and I saw a Hopscotch kit with two big pieces of chalk, two bean bags and a set of paper instructions being sold for $11.00. I'm not sharing the picture because I don't want to disparage a company but let me just say…. What?!
Have people bought it? And if yes, can I get their names and addresses? I'd love to sell them some stuff too. Like, an instructional DVD I created that shows you how to play Hangman. (Pen and paper not included.) And, a book I wrote that teaches you how to have a Thumb War. (Opponent not included.)
