  1. I guess that Hitachi might argue that there is a difference between spray blowing over a vehicle and it having been engulfed by a breaking wave.
  2. Lots of fresh tarmac on Riviera Terrace this week, and formwork for the triangular coping is advancing closer to the NR webcam.
  3. I am beginning to wonder if the removed sections are actually intended as refuges? I also notice that what had initially looked like discarded sections of drainage pipe are now firmly embedded in the concrete, at an angle of 45 degrees.
  4. The parapet work progress is currently visible on the Lobstervision NR webcam.
  5. Ah yes, my browser didn't display that. However it only shows the current view, and lacks all the controls for looking back at earlier shots, zooming, and so forth. I suppose it depends what you want to see.
  6. Well, the refresh is the same, but you can scroll back with a calendar, zoom in, and view the time-lapse until fairly recently. This is what I am seeing right now, with the barge about to move off.
  7. I started here: http://www.lobsterpictures.tv/site-monitoring then scrolled down to "Live Cameras". It seems to do something odd with the url - whatever site you then select it still shows the same. Perhaps it is so the you can only get there via their front page. Chris
  8. If this works for you, the Network Rail webcam is still viewable, together with history and time-lapse. https://www.lobstervision.tv/home
  9. A new NR video for the anniversary: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HEt9_NYKR9E Sadly, it seems to have replaced the live NR webcam view.
  10. Didn't he have the obligatory bag of sugar to hand for just such a problem? I suppose he would still have needed to turn the barrel. :-( Chris
  11. Indeed it is, an excellent piece of work. They also seem to have had fun on this one, which I don't recall having seen here: Chris
  12. Maybe they need one of these? http://www.soermatp.com/pellemarinisee/index-en.html Chris
  13. Still going very much better than Edinburgh though!
  14. Probably the Voyagers. Their manufacturer was a little unused to the British penchant for cold showers. The earth leakage protection on the roof-mounted power resistor bank was a little too sensitive for the conditions encountered.
  15. Now we can see what the wall of sandbags was for - they needed to keep the area free to pour concrete, presumably underpinning the houses.
  16. I think, as has also been said, the sequence is first to complete the roadway infill to the point that it can be used to free trapped vehicles, then allow the utilities to dive in. I don't think they can really cope with installing in fresh air.
  17. Well, from its url, I would think it is actually Site-Eye http://www.site-eye.co.uk/railway_time-lapse_films.html I guess that they are actually operating both cameras as NR contractors I imagine the second one was never intended to be accessed directly, but didn't seem to be password protected. Perhaps they have realised.
  18. We'll probably see better when they get nearer the camera, but I think they may be lining the trench they formed yesterday with the geotextile. Now some black flexible pipe has appeared, which may well be heading for that space. I'd guess pipe in the bottom, add free draining gravel, fold the textile to wrap over the top
  19. The shuttering is still there, but they have wrapped it in black sheeting. The camera at the other end doesn't seem to be updating now. Is the big red spidery thing lurking? I'm expecting concrete very soon.
