A few weeks ago I ticked another of my 2026 goals off the list, when I attended the Swanage Railway Spring Gala. Another railway I will definitely be returning to.

Une locomotive à vapeur ne te regarde pas.

Pourtant on la traite avec amour, avec dévotion.

On l'écoute, on connaît son souffle, on saisit le bidon d'huile.

On la regarde partir, amoureux – sans rien attendre en retour.

C'est peut-être la forme la plus honnête de l'attachement.

Moins de conte de fées. Plus de bidon d'huile.

Atesh partisans hit Russia’s shrinking locomotive fleet – one engine at a time

A shortage of operational locomotives inside Russian Railways makes each destroyed unit harder to replace, Atesh
claims.

My most normal drawing of the titular character and the first time I drew him in his true form. I'm not too happy with his face... hmm...

🕰️ Un contretemps inattendu

🚃 En empruntant le Métropolytemps le 15 mars dernier, je ne me doutais pas que j'avais pris un billet de la première édition, ce qui m'a ramené 2 années en arrière.
