“Um… Weasley Crusher.”

“Who?”

“Small child, know-it-all, may or may not be Picard’s son?”

“Ah”

“Yeah, we can’t actually find any record of him BEING in Starfleet…”

It would be better for Apple to re-release the AA battery version again.

I stopped using Discord way back when it always spun up my fans and made my phone hot just leaving it open.

The Hoot & Holler Hideout, a small gift shop that is built into the exit tunnel for Tokyo Disneyland's Splash Mountain is due to shut down permanently on November 30th of this year.

OLC has given no official reason for this closure. Some Disney bloggers online are speculating that this could be a signal that they are preparing to shut down Splash Mountain for renovation, and that the renovations could including converting the problematic Song of the South theme into Tiana's Bayou Adventure which is themed after The Princess and the Frog.

What do you think?

 

Some of you here are going to be rather interested in the choices for Nacelle Toys first wave of Star Trek figurines.

The complete list

  1. Captain Edward Jellico (comes with Picard's fish tank and finger painting from Picard Day)
  2. Midshipman Peter Preston (comes with battle damage for the chest and head)
  3. Valkris (her "special feature" is "saying goodbye")
  4. Captain Rachael Garrett (comes with fatal debris)
  5. Tuvix (comes with "unique uniform" (and a lot of moral dilemma))
  6. Mirror Captain Jonathan Archer (wearing the green TOS tunic, comes with poisoned champagne)
  7. Weyoun (special feature is "sliminess", also coincidentally figure number 007)
  8. Captain Hikaru Sulu (comes with a tea cup and saucer)

Apart from the obvious WTFness of this list, it's funny how apart from the first and last figure all of these character met an untimely demise.

Above: A 6-car JR West 189 series train set on the Kounotori Limited Express service, parked at Amagasaki Station in 2013.

The JNR (Japan National Railway) 183 series trains were introduced in 1972. They were the direct descendants of the similarly-designed 485 series. They featured a more simplified conductor's cabin (without a protruding nose cone) and other improvements, including the ability to link their drive trains to other models for tandem locomotion. The 183s retained many distinctive stylings of the 485 series, such as the dark cream & dark red livery and the metallic hood ornaments.

In 1973, some retired 485 series chassis were refitted with 183 frames and returned to service as the (strangely-numbered) 381 series train. These trains featured tilting bogeys to allow them to take curves at higher speeds. They were visually identical to newly-built 183s with a few telltale changes to the classic livery.

From 1974, newer editions of the 183 were introduced with further improvements. A handful of sets were strengthened against snow and cold weather. These sets were originally labeled as 183-1000 & 183-1500, but would later be referred to as 189s. At some point another minor derivative of the 183 series was planned as the 187 series, but never entered production.

Following the privatization of Japan's railways, the trains were owned and operated by both JR East and JR West.

The 183 & 189 series underwent refurbishing between the 1990s and the 2000s, the 381s were refurbished during the 2000s and the 2010s.

All 183/189/381 series trains were taken out of regular service between 2011 & 2015 and replaced with newer rolling stock. The last 183 series trains were formally retired in 2019 and the last 381 series trains were formally retired in the summer of 2024. Many sets have been preserved at various museums throughout Japan.

Two preserved 183s on display at the Railway Museum near Omiya Station in Saitama in 2024. The interior seating has been restored and is open to the public for eating boxed meals inside the train anytime during museum hours.

Pictures taken by me in 2013 and 2024. Part of my Rolling Stock series of posts.

“Wil Wheaton is now five years older than Patrick Stewart was in the pilot of Star Trek the next generation. Have your bones demineralized and fallen apart yet?”
