I've been holding out for a better picture this month, but I don't think it's going to happen. So, before I forget, here is my entry:

I did notice it wasn't very transporty but at the same time, no one else seems to have been worried about it and as it's an open topic to transport photos, I'm happy to let it ride as a one-off unless you want to change it or if others have a problem with it?
Here's my entry for the month as well. Now that my photos and such are finally sorted and fixed up.
Scotrail Class 380 at York NRM during Railfest.

That's not a connecting door. That's the entrance to an anti-tornado shelter, this door gets you 10 meters underground!

This shot, taken on 5th August 2010, depicts the right hand car at the High Town station of the Bridgnorth Castle Hill funicular railway, built in the late 19th century. Its purpose was to aid communication and travel between the High and Low Towns that form Bridgnorth. It replaced a 200-step trip. In the mid-20th century an electrical mechanism replaced a water/gravity system, and standard bullhead rail was installed at a gauge of 3 feet 6 inches in 1972. Both aluminium cars replaced wooden variants in 1955, and remain in excellent condition. They carry 18 people each and operates around 200 journeys a day. It is reputedly the steepest (66% gradient) and shortest (61 metres) railway in the UK.
Couple more pics here, by the way - very interesting system:

Aztec Maiden was pulled of the beach in the late afternoon of the 21st.
