Station Architecture: Grand Central Terminal

You should never miss this centennial terminal if you are in New York.

Grand Central Terminal


Tiffany clock of GCT

This terminal opened in February 1913.  This year is its centennial anniversary.
Tokyo Station in Japan will be 100 years old in December 1914 so it's almost the same age.
Therefore, they contracted sister station partnership this year.

Solar-Powered Rail: Transport Issue of the Day #rail #transit #transport

Railway Gazette

Solar-powered rail starts operation in Hungary.  The speed is 25 km/h - not so bad.

Solar-Powered Railcar in Hungary

IRJ

IRJ (International Railway Journal) also featured this new railway service.

Solar Power Today

Solar-Powered Railcar

It seems this Hungarian railcar is not the first solar-powered train.  There is a train powered by solar energy which runs between Paris and Amsterdam.  Uh, well this is solar-powered maybe but it says "the tunnel will generate enough electricity to power all the trains in Belgium for the equivalent of one day per year."

In that case, this Hungarian train can be regarded as almost first solar-powered railcar.

Personalized Stemless Wine Glass


It was really a summer day.  I enjoyed Bicycle Sunday for the first time this year.
In the afternoon, I visited Lyndhurst Castle to see the Rose Garden.

Lyndhurst was designed in 1838 by Alexander Jackson Davis.  Important owners of this mansion in the past include former New York City mayor William Paulding, merchant George Merritt and railroad tycoon Jay Gould.  The architecture is Gothic Revival.
