Sousse [Tunisia]: The metre gauge Express DMU heads along the streets of Sousse to the station and then on to Tunis. The junction leading off to the right possibly went to the harbour; in any case it seems to have been disused even by 1983. The whole of the on-street section of the mainline was removed when the railways in that area were converted to the Sahel Metro. The mainline was diverted to the west of the city. For a view looking the other way see image [[72391]].

Kirkham and Wesham: This Preston and Wyre Railway boundary post between Kirkham and Salwick has survived the electrification rebuild of the bridge behind, and the recent installation of palisade fencing. Probably dating from the 1840 opening of the line this is a remarkable artefact.
