    Sam Van Olffen Interview Here's an interview of Sam Van Olffen, a prominent Steampunk / Dieselpunk artist: I’m more interested in the past as a way to understand the present and how in less than one century we all became “citizens of the age of the ephemera” as Alvin Toffler said...

    Trains and travel of the Art Deco Era.

    1. Thanks alot. 2. For me, it's just enough - one short post per day, no complications. Besides, I run a rather busy LJ (another obsolete platform) and, most important, I'm honored to co-maintain and contribute to much more advanced network - the Dieselpunks.org

    Trains and travel of the Art Deco Era.

    Most of them have lost their streamline "armor" in 1940s and were scrapped in the next decade. Here's a survivor's list for North America. There are some preserved streamline locomotives in Britain, Germany and Poland. Some of them are in full working order.

    Golden Era Aircraft

    Dewoitine D.33 Trait d'Union Nicknamed 'Trait d'Union', this plane has set nine world records (flight duration, distance, speed) in 1931. Two were built (D.33-01 and D.33-02); both crashed attempting non-stop Paris-Tokyo flights in 1931. This is the D.33-01

    Favorite Uniforms

    My 5 cents Generally, I've got a strong sentiment towards Austrian WWI uniform. I like 1912 Swedish and 1930s Czechoslovak uniforms, too - probably they are not extremely spectacular, but highly practical, every detail well thought of, and in my eyes they look smart. Speaking of WWII, here are...

    Trains and travel of the Art Deco Era.

    Precisely! And the loco, so much resembling the NYC flagship Commodore Vanderbilt, was very, very old. If my Alzheimer is still trustworthy, it was built in 1908.

    Rexall Train The story of the Million Dollar streamline train - actually a moving druggists convention - is missing from The Dark Roasted Blend article. It's unusual even by 1930s standards. Learn more...

    What Did You Drink Last Night?

    Campogrande Orvieto Classico (white, dry but rather sweet-ish). Good for one of the last really warm days.
