This is definitely at Panther (made by Phelon & Moore in Cleckheaton, Yorkshire) and I believe it’s a 1961 650cc Model 120.

This former British Railways (BR) 16-ton mineral wagon is on display at the Prestongrange Museum in East Lothian.
Prestongrange Museum was originally founded as the National Mining Museum Scotland (now sited at Newtongrange in Midlothian) but is now dedicated to the area’s other once significant but vanished industries – salt boiling, chemical synthesis, soap making, glass making, potteries, industrial ceramics and bricks. It’s well worth a visit!

I’ve not felt like blogging much of late… or photography… or pretty much anything else really but as we approach the end of the year I’m doing my best to motivate myself to get out and about more.
Spending just a bit of time outdoors with a camera does wonders for my mental wellbeing, I just need a push to get me going again…

Three years ago it was The Birds, an abstract sculpture representing a flock of birds taking flight by Edinburgh artist Malcolm Robertson, displayed in the centre of Glenrothes in Fife.

Suffering from tinnitus means I don’t photograph nearly as much live music as I used to but when I found out Freeway were playing outdoors at one of my favourite local micropubs, The Bunny Hop Ale House I thought I’d go along and take a few pics (and have a pint or two!)

The Grade II* listed St Mary’s Bridge in Derby has featured here before… and given my fondness for a pint (or two) at the Furnace Inn just a few yards away, it will no doubt do so again!
