Biography

Born and raised in Miami Fl, Nini Camps currently calls NYC home. As a solo artist, and making her way into the NYC music scene, Nini could be found any given night either behind the bar (under the bar) or cutting her teeth playing in clubs like The Bitter End, The Mercury Lounge and The Living Room. Self-promotion, hard work and a good bit of luck lead to 3 independent releases, national tours with artists such as Los Lonely Boys, a stint at Madison Square Garden with Joan Osborne and a stadium tour as an ambassador to the US during the 2006 World Cup games in Germany.

As a songwriter, Camps won Billboard's Songwriter Award and was Spin's Top 5 Singer/Songwriter for her self-released album "So Long". In 2005, signing with Cherry Lane Music Publishing was a dream come true and allowed for a change of focus from road warrior to in-house songwriter. The transition was a much needed break from touring and developing the discipline of writing for other artists, film and TV was, and continues to be, an exciting challenge. With over 50 TV, commercial and film placements (including songs on Brothers and Sisters, Castle, Pretty Little Liars, The Hills, Army Wives Degrassi: The Next Generation which features an unreleased song “Come Away” at the end of episode "Lost in Love Part 2", Pantene, Paseo Paper, Sydney White and end credits for Ramona and Beezus), Nini continues to write and record in NYC and her home studio. After Cherry Lane closed its doors, Nini has since found a new Music Publishing family with Razor and Tie.

Beijing

Beijing is the capital of the People's Republic of China and one of the most populous cities in the world.

Its total population in 2013 was 21,150,000. The city proper is the 2nd most populous in the world. The metropolis, located in northern China, is governed as a direct-controlled municipality under the national government with 16 urban, suburban, and rural districts. Beijing Municipality is surrounded by Hebei Province with the exception of neighboring Tianjin Municipality to the southeast; together the three divisions form the Jingjinji metropolitan region and the national capital region of China.

Beijing is the second largest Chinese city by urban population after Shanghai and is the nation's political, cultural and educational center. It is home to the headquarters of most of China's largest state-owned companies, and is a major hub for the national highway, expressway, railway, and high-speed rail networks. The Beijing Capital International Airport is the second busiest in the world by passenger traffic.

China Railways BJ

Beijing, mostly referred to as BJ, is a diesel-hydraulic locomotive used in the People's Republic of China. It is named after the capital city of China, Beijing.

BJ were made in two different versions, a standard version and a kou'an (port) version. China Railways DF7D, a diesel electric locomotive based on DF7B, has a similar appearance to the Beijing locomotive.

North Korea

From 2002 the Korean State Railway has received a number of BJ class locomotives second-hand from China. They are used mostly for heavy shunting and on local freight trains around P'yŏngyang. Thirty have been delivered, numbered in the 내연301 - 내연330 series (내연 = Naeyŏn, "internal combustion"); most are still painted in their original Chinese blue livery, but a few have been repainted into the standard North Korean scheme of light blue over dark green.
