Creagan Viaduct: Creagan Viaduct in view looking east from above southern roadway on south bank. Since partly demolished and now a road bridge.

Lea Road Watertroughs: Having brought the 'Blackpool Can Can' railtour from Euston to Blackpool North on 9th November 2024, 86259 'Les Ross' ran light to Preston for stabling, prior to returning to Blackpool for the evening trip back to London. The loco is seen approaching the site of Lea Road station, where a new station is promised under the name of Cottam Parkway but little work seems to be taking place.

Linhouse Water Viaduct: A grainy scan of a print taken with an Instamatic camera in March 1966. Syandard 5s 73108 and 73151 are working well as they cross Linhouse Water Viaduct with the 10.05 Edinburgh - Birmingham.

Bridgend: 158864 arrives at Bridgend in October 1993. From memory I had travelled down to sample the then reopened Maesteg branch.

Haggerston: Regent's Canal, looking east, seen from class 378 London Overground unit to West Croydon, between Haggerston and Hoxton on the partially reopened Broad Street line viaduct, at 10.38 on Saturday, 30th November 2024. This canal was opened in 1820 to link the Grand Junction Canal at Paddington with the Thames at Limehouse. Plans to drain the Regent's Canal and convert it to a railway in the mid-19th Century never happened, obviously! In 1929, both this and the Grand Junction Canal were amalgamated as the Grand Union Canal but the Regent's Canal is still known colloquially by its original name.

Oban: Plenty of freight stock in this view of Oban station throat, looking towards the terminus, in 1969.

Dundurn Viaduct: This is the parapet of the Dundurn Viaduct viewed from the former trackbed. This part of the line was opened in 1901, the same year as the Mallaig Extension opened - and both made use of mass concrete. The contractor for this part of the line was John Paton CE of Glasgow. Sadly he was to die aged only 42 when construction of the second portion (west to Lochearnhead) was in hand in January 1902. Born in 1861, he had been resident engineer on the Killin Branch, under John Strain, worked on the Airdrie and Newhouse branches, and he was the contractor for the building of the new Crieff station when the line to Comrie opened.

Appleby: Two jobs in one for Loram UK 37418 'An Comunn Gaidhealach' on the 25th August 2023 as it returns Inspection Saloon 975025 'Caroline' and Windhoff S&C Inspection Unit No. DR98008 to Derby RTC from Carlisle via the former Midland route. The loco has since been outshopped in Loram's red, white and black colours.
