Penistone: There are some interesting views on Railscot of Penistone. However this 2025 view is depressing to anyone who recalls the large yard and junction at the Barnsley end of the station back when the Woodhead line was operational before the 1981 closure (See image [[80922]] from 1976). The view is now changed and new houses have appeared on the left .

Clacton-on-Sea: Exterior of Clacton-on-Sea station, seen from passing coach outing from north London to the Essex seaside town, at 11.41 on Tuesday, 15th July 2025. This station was opened by the Great Eastern Railway on 4th July 1882 as Clacton, the terminus of a spur from Thorpe-le-Soken on the Walton-on-Naze line of 1867. Today, Clacton is referred to as the main line with the Walton line a branch on which passengers have to change at Thorpe-le-Soken. This station was renamed Clacton-on-Sea on 20th May 2007.
