I learned Basic, computer language on a computer that looked just like that. I'm likely the age of those boys pictured there, I remember rocking a hair cut like the one on our right, great memory.

Transportation-related attempt at humor:

Obvious: this is some kind of monocab or monorail that hangs from a truss-style guideway. There's no record of one at Toulouse. There are three decommissioned monorails in France. None are near Toulouse or look like this. Aerospatiale (Airbus) internal system for employees?

One source says the division building modular homes, named Modular Components Corporation, started in 1960. In 1964, the division began supplying 140 homes for a development in Borrego Springs and 60 more for Eagle Mountain Mine near Desert Center, California. The December 1961 issue of Rohr Magazine said:

"...wall panels of polystyrene foam plastic, the interior surfaced with a variety of hardboard finishes, and the exterior finished with
asbestos cement. The frame is of steel, and the entire house can be erected in two or three days, ready for occupancy."

You can see what looks like rectangular panels on the right-facing sides of this place. There's another photo showing an open house with prospects viewing a similar home.

The Rohr part of the airport is shown in another photo. I looked this up on a map to confirm the location. Corrections are very welcomed.

Looks much better with the light behind us, doesn't it?

Chuck Walla Indeed!

Date assigned because it appears to be the same test as piction ID 89105277.

Do you think the red instrument is a strobe light?

with movie too

Suck Diesel That is a big derailment!

Foxglove Almost all the horses killed.

The APC may also been hosted onto a Rolls Royce chasis.... the double back tyres are "interesting"...the back wheels appear to have a smaller diameter to those at the front (?) or is this perspective?
1921

PS... they are still flying the union flag :-) above the driver

Foxglove Perhaps a Lancia?

This Youtube video gives the location as 1.5 miles North of the station, which is indeed on an embankment like the one in the above Pathé reel.

@Suck Diesel.... could be ! I was just going by Google lens search.... and there were also Lancia look-a-likies :-)
My favourite was the "Whippet" scout car - it had a particularly high pitched whiney diesel soundin to it's engine as it zipped about our streets.
2nd place goes to the Saladin light tank which left big divots in the footpath outside my parents' house

“On June 24th 1921, Frank Aiken’s Northern IRA Division mined & derailed a troop train carrying 113 men of the 10th Hussars and 104 horses.
They had been part of the Royal Escort in King George V’s trip to Belfast and were returning to their barracks in Belfast.
The incident happened at Adavoyle near Newry. Three British soldiers are killed & twenty are injured. Over eighty horses were also killed in the ambush”

This could be flipped horizontally.

I believe N2200R and N2100R are corporate aircraft and am tagging them as such. Some photos of N2200R show the Rohr removed from the vertical stabilizer. Currently-registered aircraft would be in the FAA database but I have not found an archive from the 1970s and 1980s yet. Your corrections are welcomed.

I think that's a Senheiser shotgun mike. Notice that the Electronic News Gathering (ENG) camera and video tape recorder are separate pieces connected by a large cable. Now, your phone gets comparable quality video...

The safety glasses are smart.

There's an annual ABA event in February but I can't find any specifics about this one, so far.

Address mentioned as "Livernois between Clarita and Margarita. Later known as Porterfield Wilson Pontiac."

Thanks swanq, we'll fix the misspelling.

Sunshine House....much has changed from the temperance hotel it once was when first built in 1901.

Due to open to visitors on 19th May 1902 according to this notice in the Belfast Telegraph on 17th May 1902.

O Mac Map updated

John Spooner Date range updated.

Designed by a Mr Berkely Deane Wise, according to an article in the Carrick Times and East Antrim Times - Thursday 31 October 1991

In 1888 Berkeley Deane Wise was appointed engineer to the Belfast and Northern Counties Railway. His work in Whitehead included the creation of Blackhead Path, the promenade, ladies and gents bathing boxes on the promenade, a beach (using imported sand from Portrush) and a bandstand. He also designed Sunshine House.

He also designed Portrush stattion, with a not dissimilar black-and-white mock-tudor look

John Spooner Very good.

1 April 2026 was a Tuesday ...

Mild excitement for holiday-makers in 1946 during a race organised by County Antrim Yacht Club. . Larne Times - Thursday 4 July 1946

At the Blackhead mark Lucia (A. Gray) split her mainsail, and was drifting before the wind when Kenilworth (F. Hay) came to her assistance and took her in tow. Unfortunately, when approahing the shore at Blackhead, Kenilworth refused to answer her helm owing to her tow and was carried on to the beach opposite Sunshine House, Lucia managed to drop her anchor in time and was soon picked up and towed home by Mr. R. Clement's motor-boat. Assistance was quickly on hand for Kenilworth, and with the aid of holiday-makers on the spot, the yacht was brought safely above high-water mark and later removed to the club without any great damage.

Is that some early photoshopping? See the lady on the right.

I think it is motion blur

We met the dog before:

Could this be the same Dog?

Nice Dog.

That’s a great photo. Thanks.

There are a number of pics dated September 1883 showing rocky coast and inlets, and CLON32 shows a house. The roof appears in some coastline shots. A holiday home?

Niall McAuley SNAP on the Dog, we have been around here too long!
Could well be a holiday home.

I think the two in the water to our left may be little Ethel from the dog pic and her much older sister Georgina.

CLON188 is the two little ones with Georgina in 1884

Aviation and military connectors are beautiful.

Someone could try focus-stacking these images...

Setting up a test.

Emergency response team? Guy on the right may have a last name of Fleenor.

Still checking. This seems to be looking south?

Half-inch reel-to-reel videotape?

User notes/rambling: Flickr's back end takes a while to digest long text tags. If you tag a photo, "Rohr," the tag will index quickly and clicking on the tag will include the image in the results. The tag, "WMATA model in print dress," took about 8 hours to index.

A Los Angeles Times article confirms Tolo was purchased by Rohr at nearly the same time as Goodrich purchased Rohr.
