In Atlanta the past day or so there has been a story on the news about a Marta train derailment (public transport train for Atlanta metro)
My wife and daughter are leaving for an out of town trip and managed to see this.
If you can identify vvvTHISvvv image, WITHOUT using Google image search, then you are officially OLD!
(Hint: the ammonia scent could kill a horse )
Probably an old Abidick
Used run the printing presses for the whole school districts forms. It was actually a vocational class
We would typeset then burn the plates ... yes that smell
We had single, T-heads, and tri-head Abidick presses
Then there was the glue for the pad forms😳
I worked in a print shop for a while, ran a A.B. Dick 360 offset, A.B. Dick plate maker. Yep, the padding compound smell was strong, like raw latex, but was fun stuff. Those presses will last forever, great well made equipment.

Beautiful city!! I am a big fan of Chicago PD and Hank. He is truly the city protector in the show and is always admiring the night views.

Somehow I thought that cars like that were bigger than that?!

I love the smell of fresh, damp mimeographs ("dittos") in the morning.
