Announcing the death of Luther

Luther, my beloved Linux box hosted on an IBM PC 300PL, passed away today at around 02.00. JUST AS I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF EDITING MY SPEECH FOR TONIGHT'S VISION DINNER.

Vale Luther.

Vale my work since Tuesday evening - the last backup I took.

I am sure Luther could be revived, but he is past it in many ways, so it's easier to say good-bye and let him be buried in peace.

These Great Danes (or Danish Pastries!?) are ex-Danish State Railways locos and are on their way to Australia to work for LVRF. Thanks to those who pointed me to the link!

This is what a broken railway locomotive looks like.

Thanks to Steve Molloy for taking the pic.

The day the AK cars ran to Canberra

Actually, they frequently run to Canberra, and everywhere else on the system.

So this is the day I videoed them running to Canberra.
