Woodacre Crossing: An even shorter HST set than Bill Roberton's a few days earlier [[75942]]. 43058 and 43059 were on driver training for LSL running from Crewe to Carnforth and back on 5th March 2021 and are seen at Woodacre on the return run. Pairs of power cars are not uncommon sights but the last time I had photographed such a set was forty years earlier [[21558]].
Freshwater: This crossing keeper's cottage is less than a mile from the Freshwater terminus. View looks north-East towards Newport in April 2018. Notice the Give Way sign for cyclists.
Boat of Garten: Hudswell-Clarke 0-4-0 DM shunter (works number D613 of 1939) stands at Boat of Garten in June 1974. The loco was first used by the Air Ministry and was numbered AM 147 (a number that was still fitted on the cab sides) but the loco had come to the Strathspey Railway from the Caldwell Paper Mill at Inverkeithing. It has since been scrapped.
Advie [2nd]: The overgrown single platform at Advie (closed 1965), seen here from the road bridge on 25 May 2012. View is south west in the general direction of Grantown-on-Spey.
Nawton: A short section of trackbed remains east of Nawton station, partly in a shallow cutting and then on a low embankment up to where the solum has been obliterated across the section running towards, and beyond, the former Stoney Cross rail overbridge that crossed the A170 road en route to Kirkbymoorside. This view looks easterly in February 2021, to the end of the extant section, with the A170 running across by the tree line seen ahead.
Dunfermline Town: An Edinburgh service calls at Dunfermline station in July 1999 in charge of a Class 156, not much seen in Fife then or since. The station, which appears to be receiving some attention, was to get the suffix 'Town' a few months later when Dunfermline Queen Margaret opened.
Clapham Common: Original sign at the entrance to Clapham Common station, Northern Line, on 20th May 2013. This opened in 1900 with the first extension of the City & South London Railway, the world's first deep-level tube line that had opened between King William Street and Stockwell in 1890. Not until 1926 was the line further extended south to Morden. The line then became known as the Morden-Edgware Line until 1937 when the LPTB renamed it the Northern Line, notwithstanding that a lengthy section of the line is in SOUTH London, as here at Clapham Common. One of London Transport's little jokes that has persisted to the present day.
Bishopton Tunnel Signal Box: Black 5 4-6-0 no 44880 about to run past Bishopton Tunnel signal box on 28 August 1963 with a Wemyss Bay - Glasgow train.
Euston: Two Class 87s (one trying to hide behind the BRUTE trolleys on the left) wait with their respective trains at the country end of London Euston on 20 March 1976.
