Glen Douglas Halt: Considerable effort has been put into clearing the linesides of trees and scrub, and netting the cuttings, north of Glen Douglas. A southbound 156478 turns inland from Loch Long to enter Glen Douglas. To gauge the extent of the clearance see image [[11568]].
Glen Douglas Halt: 66733 climbs steadily, weaving its way up to Glen Douglas with the empties from the Lochaber Smelter. Ardgarten Hotel (modern, not Victorian despite appearances) is planned to re-open for Lochs and Glens Holidays' bus tours in October.
Stirling Forth Viaduct [SCR]: A southbound train from the Dunblane direction crossing the bridge over the A9 Causewayhead Road on the approach to Stirling on 15 April 2008. Between here and the station the line runs parallel with the former S&D route, which can be seen arriving via a long curve from the right of the picture. The line from Alloa was officially reopened to scheduled passenger services the following month.
Ferryhill MPD: The Ferryhill Three, the ex-Aberdeen Gas Board 0-4-0ST locos in what had become an Aberdeen Corporation compound at Ferryhill MPD in April 1977. The building behind the locos (the one remaining on site today) is believed to be an earlier loco shed. On the extreme right the later shed is just visible with a Class 08 and Class 40 loco in front of it.
Easingwold: A surprising number of railway relics were noted when visiting a farm in the Easingwold area. These included a box van with sliding door each side, with end interior panelling almost as new, what looks to be a demountable livestock container, and, when looking upwards in an open pole barn, the wooden side frames from a NE 10T wagon used as roof purlins. See image [[74178]] for a closer view of the latter as can be seen in this view.
West Calder: There are two remaining original station buildings on the Shotts line: Shotts itself and here at West Calder. They are identical apart from the dormer windows. While Shotts is still staffed, West Calder has long been occupied by a rather inconspicuous Chinese restaurant which is some distance from the town's main street.
Aylsham: No.3 '2nd Division USAAF', waiting to depart from Aylsham with a Bure Valley Railway service to Wroxham, on 30th May 2016. This diesel hydraulic was built in 1988 by engineering firm John Edwards of Great Yarmouth and tested on the Romney, Hythe & Dymchurch Railway. It was then used during construction of the BVR, which opened in 1990 along the trackbed of the former standard gauge line, closed to passengers in 1952 and to freight in 1981. This locomotive was originally named 'Buxton Mill' but renamed in tribute to the Division that flew B24 Liberators from fourteen airfields in Norfolk during WWII.
Comrie Railroad, House of Ross: The substantial engine shed and turntable of the House of Ross Miniature Railway in 1989. Note the elevated servicing road on the right hand side of the shed.
Bescar Lane: 150122 leads a Manchester bound four-car Sprinter non-stop through the staggered platforms of rural Bescar Lane on 14th August 2020. The local 'Friends' group do an excellent job of keeping the station tidy with many floral displays. This is the replacement platform, the disused one being behind the camera on the other side of the automatic half-barrier level crossing.
Edinburgh Waverley: Installing electrification masts at the west end of Waverley in October 2007. EWS 60029 Clitheroe Castle is on the front of the works train, while ScotRail 156467 is pulling away from platform 13 with a train for Glasgow Central via Shotts.
Balshaw Lane Junction: On the rear of the 5Z90 from Crewe to Preston at Balshaw Lane Jct is DVT 82139 in Inter City Swallow livery. This was the outward test run with 90002 leading. The return trip was unfortunately not so successful with the DVT leading, ending up around an hour late back in Crewe.
