This factory built the first Willy's Jeeps to serve in WW2 in 1941. Today, only this lone smokestack remains.

50 years ago today, Nov. 10, 1975, the Edmund Fitzgerald sank beneath the waves of Lake Superior during a massive storm.
The sinking took the lives of all 29 men on the ship, and became immortalized in Gordon Lightfoot's song.
This is the story of this terrible tragedy.

🧵1/20
The� A large red and white Great Lakes freighter named "Edmund Fitzgerald" sails on calm blue water under an overcast sky. The ship has a white superstructure with multiple windows, a tall mast with flags including a Canadian flag, and black smoke rising from its yellow-and-black smokestack at the stern. Green forested shoreline is visible in the background.

I've been a bit quiet the last two weeks. Caught the classic early autumn community cold, and, well, a break's not so bad now and again.

But today's thread's about something you're probably already aware of—it's the 50th anniversary of the loss of the S.S. Edmund Fitzgerald on Lake Superior.
Bow-on view of the Great Lakes ore carrier Edmund Fitzgerald under way on calm water beneath an overcast sky (1971). The ship’s white pilothouse rises above a red hull with “EDMUND FITZGERALD” visible on the side; a yellow-and-black smokestack at the stern trails a light plume as deck gear lines the long cargo deck.

Political cartoon showing a ship labeled “SS Poilievre” with the Conservative Party logo on its smokestack. Rats are jumping off the side of the ship, evoking the old saying “rats leaving a sinking ship.”

Souvenir pennant in Japan, my collection.
"Seikan Railway Ferry", Aomori and Hokkaido Prefecture.
The Seikan Ferry was a railway ferry connecting Aomori Station and Hakodate Station. This pennant depicts the Yotei Maru (2nd generation, 1965–1988).
Length 70cm (27.5in). Circa 1970s. #vintage
1. A Seikan Railway Ferry pennant. It features a printed photograph on paper, decorated with yellow fringe. The green background on the flag's surface is flocky processing. The flag comes in its original clear vinyl bag with a paper tag. The tag reads: "Color Pennant" (Red, Yellow, White), "As a travel souvenir, for your room... your car..." 2. Photo shows the Seikan Railway Ferry, 2nd-generation Yotei Maru (1965–1988). 3. Enlarged photo. The Yotei Maru sailing the deep blue Tsugaru Strait under a clear blue sky. The red hull and the Japanese National Railways "JNR" mark on the funnel (smokestack) look beautiful. 4. Title is in Japanese. Kanji letters: "Seikan Railway Ferry" (yellow). Commemorative date field (yellow) on the right edge of the flag.

How did the writers deal w/ Blofeld being dropped in a smokestack & coming back 30yrs later as Cristoph Waltz? Must have missed some exposition in a deleted scene. Like, is the cat okay? Did the smokestack drop cure Blofeld of whatever put him in a wheelchair? Think it would help with my sciatica?

At center of lower half of pic, covering the side of a building, is a black and white mural of a huge face looking directly at us with groupings of lines in arrow and Y-shapes strewn about. A connected, taller red brick column of the building runs up the left side of pic. Atop that section of the building with the mural is a tall smokestack with lettering spelling out "HOODS MILK" from top to bottom. Behind it is a concrete and glass building.

On Oct. 13, 1942, she was returning to Newfoundland from her first shore leave on the SS Caribou. With her was her fellow nurse and friend Margaret Brooke. Just after 3 a.m., the Caribou was hit by a torpedo from a German U-Boat. The ship sank in only five minutes.

Black and white historical photograph of a large steamship named "SAMSON" docked at a pier. The ship has a dark hull, white upper structure, a single smokestack, and a prominent bow. Several people stand on the wooden dock in the foreground, with rail tracks visible along the pier. The scene appears to be from the early 20th century.

Also, Blofeld tried to use a remote control in a helicopter James Bond was riding in tomcrash the helicopter (after electrocuting the pilot) but Bond was able to take control and then lifted Blofeld (who was now in a wheelchair) and dropped him down a smokestack. No memory of this in later movies!

The close-up view of the bridge and cabin of a weathered, rusty steamship movie prop named "VENTURE" painted in large black letters above the wheelhouse. The cabin is clad in stage aged wood and oxidised yellow-brown metal, featuring several portholes, a ladder leading to a top deck railing, a life preserver hanging on the front railing, and a large black smokestack partially visible on the left. The overall appearance suggests a neglected, hard-working tramp steamer from the 1930s. It was docked at the old Miramar Wharf awaiting sailing out to sea for long shots which, apparently, was a dodgy bit sailing as the ocean tried to sink it.

A few people have wanted me to do more #tugs #fanart.
So, we'll see how this goes over on here.
Here's Star Tug no. 1 - Ten Cents!
#digitalart #art #thomasandfriends
Full image, full color, fanart rendition of the character Ten Cents from the short-lived 1989 show Tugs. He has a bright yellow scheme with a black main hull, red smokestack with blue and white stripes on the top half, and dark blue hat. His hull and body is trimmed in white, portholes are brass, and all access doors are in wood brown. his name is also on the bow in white serif font. On his flagpole is a flag of blue and white stripes (matching the top section of his stack) and a large red block at the end of the flag with a white star in the center of the red, indicating his team - the Star Tugs. He has a frustrated, irritated expression as he moves through the dark blue ocean, his reflection on the water surface. The sky is blue with big puffy white clouds, as black smoke pours out of his stack.

A white lighthouse with a red-striped midsection and a weathervane at its top stands on a pier. In the background is a rough sea with white-capped waves. Beyond the lighthouse, the sea is rough with white-capped waves. Another smaller lighthouse or beacon is visible further down the pier. A man is standing on the pier, smoking a pipe and looking out to sea; two more figures are standing near the closer of the two lighthouses. A steamer is docked at the pier in the background, and another is at sail on the water, smoke rising from its smokestack.

A total of 12 ships were lost in the storm, while 30 were severely damaged and stranded in the water.
Two of the ships, the Leafield and Plymouth have never been located.
Over 250 people were killed, mostly in ships lost in the storm.

Black-and-white photograph of a large steamship underway on calm water, shown in broadside view. The vessel has a long, dark hull with a single tall smokestack amidships emitting light smoke, two masts with rigging, and a clipper bow. A small bridge structure with wheelhouse sits forward of the stack. The ship's name "J.H. SHEADLE" is visible on the stern. Faint text overlaid at the bottom reads "S.S. J.H. SHEADLE LOST AROUND 1910-1915 LAKE SUPERIOR WRECKS ARCHIVES". The horizon is flat and hazy.

We’re glad to see #methane mentioned in the #federalbudget —but actions speak louder than words. Canada needs clear targets and timelines to drive these emissions down and give our kids a chance at a livable future. Cut it now - for our kids, our air, our future.
A photo of a smokestack spewing pollution into the air. Text says 'methane gets a mention in the federal budget. but actions speak louder than words. we need bold action and we need it now!'
