Marchwiel power station. Marchwiel power station was an electricity generating plant providing a central source of electric current for the Marchwiel Trading Estate near Wrexham. It was under state ownership and operation from 1950 to 1960.

History
The Marchwiel Trading Estate, south east of Wrexham, was developed after the Second World War on the site of a Royal Ordnance Factory. Electricity for the estate was generated by a power station initially operated by the South Wales and Monmouthshire Trading Estates Company Limited. This company was established in 1936 to promote the development of a diverse range of industry in Wales and built several industrial estates.

The British Electricity Authority (BEA) purchased Marchwiel power station from the South Wales Company on 1 October 1950. The BEA developed the station with new plant, but it was divested by the Central Electricity Generating Board (CEGB) in 1960.

Generating plant
The plant comprised:

4 × 50,000 lb/h (6.3 kg/s) John Thompson boilers with chain grate stokers. Steam conditions were 250 psi and 650°F (17.2 bar and 343°C), these supplied steam to:

1 × 7.5 MW Parsons turbo-alternator

1 × 4.65 MW British Thomson-Houston turbo-alternator, commissioned in May 1952

There was also a 260 kW oil engine, house services set.

Condenser cooling was by circulating cooling water plus three wooden Davenport cooling towers each rated at 0.255 million gallons per hour (1159 m3/h), plus one reinforced concrete cooling tower rated at 0.3 million gallons per hour (1364 m3/h); the concrete tower was commissioned in May 1952.

The operating data was as follows:

It is expected to open in 2027.

The railway is expected to reduce the journey time from Ningbo to Suzhou and Shanghai to around one hour.

History
In October 2020, geological surveys began in preparation for the construction of a bridge across Hangzhou Bay which will carry the railway.

Construction on the railway started on 30 November 2022.

Route
The line takes new north–south route which bypasses Shanghai, instead heading via Suzhou, Jiaxing, and Cixi. The total length of the line is , of which  will be newly built. The line crosses the Yangtze River via two tracks of the four-track Hutong Yangtze River Bridge. The other two tracks carry the Nantong–Shanghai railway.

It is however not the first railway to travel between Suzhou and Jiaxing. The Suzhou–Jiaxing railway operated from the 1930s to 1944.

Raven (sailboat). The Raven is an American trailerable, planing sailboat that was designed by Roger McAleer and first built in 1949.

Production
In the past the design has been built by Sound Marine Construction, the O'Day Corp. and Nevins Inc., all in the United States. Today it is built by Cape Cod Shipbuilding and remains in production. A total of 400 boats have been built.

Design
The Raven is a recreational sailboat, originally built of cold molded plywood. In 1951 it was converted to be constructed of fiberglass, with teak wood trim, including the cockpit coaming. It has a fractional sloop rig with aluminum spars, including a double-spreader mast, supported by stainless steel standing rigging. The hull has a spooned raked stem, an angled transom, an internally mounted, fiberglass,  spade-type rudder controlled by a tiller and a retractable fiberglass centerboard. It displaces  and carries no ballast.

The boat has a draft of  with the centreboard extended and  with it retracted, allowing beaching or ground transportation on a trailer.

For sailing the design has roller reefing for the mainsail, dual self-bailers and a 6:1 mechanical advantage outhaul. A spinnaker is optional.

Class rule changes instituted in 1970 allowed for a one-piece aluminum centerboard, a trapeze, a full width mainsheet traveler mounted on the aft deck and hiking straps.

The design has a Portsmouth Yardstick racing average handicap of 82.6 and is normally raced by a crew of three sailors.

Operational history
When the Raven was first built of fiberglass, starting in 1951, the initial eight production boats were purchased by the United States Coast Guard Academy for cadet training.

JS Matsuyuki. JS Matsuyuki (DD-130) is a  of the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force.

Development and design 
The Hatsuyuki class were designed as multi-purpose ships, with a balanced armament and sensor fit, so that the ships could carry out anti-submarine and anti-surface ship operations while being capable of defending themselves against air attack. A hangar and flight deck are carried for a single helicopter, which was initially the Mitsubishi HSS-2, a license-built Sikorsky Sea King, later replaced by Mitsubishi H-60s (licensed Sikorsky S-70s), with the Canadian Beartrap haul-down system fitted to ease operations of large helicopters.

An octuple Mk 112 launcher for ASROC anti-submarine missiles is fitted forward, while additional close-in anti-submarine armament is provided by two triple 324-mm torpedo-tubes for Mark 46 anti-submarine torpedoes.

The initial anti-aircraft armament consisted of a Sea Sparrow surface-to-air missile launcher aft, with an OTO Melara 76 mm gun forward. Eight Harpoon anti-ship missiles are carried in two quadruple mounts abaft the ship's funnel.

Construction and career 
Matsuyuki was laid down on 20 January 1987 and launched on 4 June 1988 by Hitachi Zosen Corporation, Maizuru. She was commissioned on 31 January 1990.

LCU-2001-class landing craft. The LCU-2001-class landing craft is a class of utility landing craft (LCU) of the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force. Two craft were constructed in the 1980s.

Description 
The vessel are an LCU type transport boat for transporting personnel and supplies to remote coastal areas and remote islands. The Maritime Self-Defense Force had the  for use as a small transport ship, but this type is simplified and miniaturized based on it.

It is said that this model can carry up to 200 people and 25 tons of supplies. The bottom of the ship is flat for beaching, and there is an anchor at the stern for use in reefing. The front part of the ship is an open loading space where vehicles and supplies are loaded. In addition, 70 troops can be installed. It is almost the same size as the United States Army's , but the displacement is different, and while the Runnymede class can carry three tanks, this model does not support the mounting of tanks due to weight. It is said that this is due to the emphasis on long-distance transportation capacity of personnel.

The method of landing supplies is to sit on the shore and lower the bow ramp on the bow. In the Yura class, there were two stages, a bow door and a ramp, but in this type, there is only one bow ramp, and the bow shape is also flat. At the rear of the ship is a bridge, as well as a troop residence and engine department. As an armament, it is equipped with one JM61 20 mm cannon, which is a human-powered gun, at the top of the bridge.
