Healey Dell Viaduct: Healey Dell Viaduct is surrounded by trees but is easier to see, and perhaps photograph, in winter rather than the summer months [[81836]]. This February 2025 view looks north across the Spodden Valley and the large weir on the river gives some perspective to this listed structure, with the trackbed footpath 105ft above the water.

Uxbridge: I'm not sure whether it's the slab or the forecourt which belongs to LT, but they are marking their patch. I have never noticed a plaque like this before, presumably because I usually have something to do other than staring at my feet when travelling around London.

Tibbermuir: View west from a former level crossing at the site of Tibbermuir station in 1995. There was a crossing keeper's cottage on the right and the station's platform (with a small elegant timber shelter) was beyond it. On the left was a looped siding and loading bank. Nothing survives of the station, but the cottage was similar to the one which still stands at the former Ruthven Road station site. Since this photograph was taken more houses have been built here.
