Wilmslow: 88006 'Juno' takes the Styal Loop line through Platform 1 at Wilmslow, heading for Trafford Park with a 'Tesco' intermodal from Daventry on 2nd October 2024. Much of the train is still on the two track section as the junction for Styal is just beyond the platforms. This new DRS service was running 96 minutes early, which was unexpectedly welcome as the Felixstowe train I had planned to photograph was slightly late and had been put behind the service I was travelling towards Manchester on.

Crouch Hill: Crouch Hill, London Overground GOBLIN, looking towards Gospel Oak at 14.39 on Wednesday, 23rd October 2024. I refuse to call the line by the name the Mayor of London has given it, for me it always will be the GOBLIN and, indeed, some months after the new names came into force, there are still no signs here displaying the one that was chosen for this line. Crossing the bridge on the thoroughfare from which the station takes its name is an HV type bus on route W7 from Muswell Hill Broadway via Crouch End to Finsbury Park station.
