Blackstone Junction: 42210 runs west through Blackstone Junction on 27 August 1963 at the head of a Glasgow Central - Gourock express.

Broomhill: Having completed the run-round in the loop just north of Broomhill, on the alignment of the hopeful extension to Grantown-on-Spey, Caledonian Railway 0-6-0 No.828, dating from 1898, is returning to the station in readiness for the return Strathspey Railway journey to Aviemore, on 20th July 2017.

Benhar Branch Junction: Benhar Junction with the Polkemmet Colliery branch diverging. The colliery closed in the year this photo was taken, 1986.

Savenay: Old and new SNCF motive power sharing the stage on a summer evening in 1969 at Savenay, west of Nantes. On the left is an express from Paris to Le Croisic, headed by the doyen of the recently introduced CC72000 express passenger diesels, number 72001. On the right is the connecting local service to St Nazaire, with ex-Etat 2-8-2 141C82, dating from the early nineteen twenties.

Bay Horse: Class 56s are rare birds around Lancaster these days so it was worth venturing out to Forton cutting on a damp November afternoon for 56113, working spent ballast from Carlisle New Yard to Pinnox Branch Esso Sidings, which I later found out is near Stoke on Trent. A northbound train a few minutes later made the effort doubly worthwhile [[78977]]. I initially thought this Colas train was a 'one off' but it has been running each weekday in November.

Milnthorpe: DB operated Network Rail engineers ballast train with 66080 is seen heading from Carlisle to Crewe to the south of Milnthorpe on 12 September 2015.

Sefton Park: Local people and railway workers in Liverpool have unveiled a World War II memorial made from forgotten anti-tank blocks known as 'dragon's teeth' which were uncovered during bridge maintenance work. Network Rail staff found the concrete fortifications at Stalbridge Avenue during recent railway repairs to improve journeys for passengers between Mossley Hill and Edge Hill. Hidden from view for decades behind overgrown trees and undergrowth, the wartime relics are now proudly on show beside a commemorative plaque to explain their historical significance. The devices were used all across Europe - by both Allied and enemy troops - to stop invading tanks and light infantry in their tracks. They were also nicknamed 'Toblerlone lines' after the similar looking Swiss chocolate.

Buchanan Street: A good number of photographers were out in the heavy rain with their cameras as B1 61407 left Glasgow Buchanan St with the 11.35 to Thornton on 5th November 1966. The station was to close the following day, however, and this was to be the final steam-hauled departure in the hours of daylight. The risk of a wet camera was no doubt having to be weighed against the importance of capturing a record of the occasion. I quite liked three-quarter rear shots of Buchanan St departures, so was happy enough to keep mine sheltered under the station canopy.

Keith: Lost Railfreight 37128 passes Keith station in 1990, with a freight originating at the nearby Chivas Regal site. #COP26

Pickering: NYMR Drewry 0-6-0 DM (ex-BR class 04) no D2207 slowly propels a brake van into the shed at the north end of Pickering station on 26 March 2010.
