Uffington: 59204, eastbound at Longcot on the GWML near Uffington, on 17th June 2021, which was not the brightest of days. The consist is made up of a fully loaded stone train from Whatley Quarry to Oxford Banbury Road. Reporting number 663S.

Plockton: 158705 calls at Plockton, working from Kyle to Inverness on 10th July 2012. This is by far the busiest intermediate station on the Kyle line beyond Dingwall, averaging almost 12,000 passengers per annum.

Nuneaton: I cannot remember what this screen on the island platform 6 and 7 normally says, but on 27th May 2021, it was showing a bunch of suggestions about how to revive a duff computer. One of these said disable the driver - you would think ASLEF would have something to say about that from a health and Safety viewpoint ...

Carlisle: Platform one of Carlisle station is closed while a new platform surface is being prepared.

Alexandria: A Balloch service calls at unpretentious Alexandria on 9 June 2021. Despite what you might have heard, the library at Alexandria is not even singed. I didn't ask whether they had the scrolls.

Largs: Largs Community Garden looking north in June 2021. Sometime Platform 2 on the left, with the high wall built on the edge of Platform 1 so the platform is behind and now a walkway to Morrison's. The bush to the right is about where the Jumbo station pilot used to sit on Fair Holidays. Attractive as the scene is now, I'd prefer the Jumbo any day.

The obsolete up platform on the main line tracks (on right) is now fenced off while, further right, the down platform has been demolished.
