Nawton: The former station at Nawton on the closed Gilling to Pickering line has been converted into a private residence while the goods yard is occupied by Valley View Lodges holiday accommodation. This south facing view at the station approach was taken on 21 October 2009.

Knockando: About half a mile south of Knockando is the Allt Adhair Viaduct spanning a gulley and burn for which it is named. The view is looking south over the wooden deck provided for walkers and cyclists and in the centre there is a small viewing platform looking towards the Spey.

Knockando: Between Knockando and Blacksboat there are several bridges over burns. The largest span is over the Allt Adhair Burn wich is spanned by this viaduct. A substantial structure it is now part of the Speyside Way. In the background beneath the piers the River Spey can be seen.

Wigan North Western: Platform 5 at Wigan North Western, a loop on the west side of the station, sees 142012 newly arrived on an all stations service from Liverpool via St. Helens Central and about to return to Lime Street by the same route.

Kirkdale: On work that was for many years entrusted to ex-Southern Region electro-diesels, a two car departmental unit leaves Kirkdale EMU Depot to head towards Walton Junction on rail head treatment duties. These units have a swap body facility and for this work are fitted with large tanks and associated spray equipment. In the foreground an EMU from Ormskirk departs for Liverpool Central on a morning rush-hour service.

Preston: Having started from Liverpool Lime Street 25 minutes late - 'No driver' - the 1257 for Blackpool North steadily lost more time until it was terminated in Preston. Presumably it picked up its original diagram later. 156482 is seen newly arrived in little used bay platform 4C as an Adelante Class 180 DMU heads south for Manchester Victoria.

Kirkdale: A morning rush hour Kirkby to Liverpool Central service, formed by 508104, calls at Kirkdale and stands under the modern bridge that carries a street level booking office and is connected to the platforms by lifts and 48 step staircases. Out of sight, in a tunnel directly underneath the station, is the still well used freight line to Seaforth Container Terminal on the River Mersey.

Kirkdale: A 6-car EMU leaves Kirkdale and heads for Liverpool passing the EMU depot, although this being the rush hour there is only one train in the sidings. Picture taken from the modern street level bridge that also carries the ticket office.

Liverpool Lime Street: Just about to start its 5 hour 20 minute journey, on the 12.52hrs through service to Norwich, this Stagecoach liveried 158 at Lime St station makes a colourful contrast to the Northern units in their purple and mauve scheme. Left to right the trains are: 158770 for Norwich, 142053 for Manchester Victoria, 156482 for Blackpool and 150228 newly arrived.

Colne: Northern Pacer 142060 has just departed from Colne (behind the camera) as it heads west to Blackpool South on 21 October 2011. At one time this was a busy through station, today it just has a single platform at the end of a single line from Gannow Junction, although campaigns continue to reopen to Skipton. The West Pennine hills provide the back drop.

Colne: Looking towards the buffers at Colne with a Class 142 waiting to head west back to Blackpool on 21 October 2011. The fence line is running along what would have been the 4 foot of the Skipton bound platform. The platform edge is still there although the trees have taken a firm hold dislodging some of the slabs. See image [[33639]] taken 34 years ago before the old platform had been landscaped.

Colne: Northern 142060 waits at the sole remaining platform at Colne on 21 October 2011. Having arrived from Blackpool South, after a few minutes lay-over it will head west again back to Blackpool South. The view is north along the platform towards the buffers and the remnants of the trackbed to Skipton.

Nelson: A Blackpool South to Colne service approaches Chaffers Crossing east of Nelson station on 21 October 2011. The driver will bring the train to a stand with the cab window next to the board on the right and pull the cord to initiate the closing of the barriers see image [[17268]].

Ridgmont: The old station at Ridgmont, just a stone's throw from the M1, seen here in October 2011 being restored and upgraded. The sign beyond the skip says there will be a heritage railway centre - a small one, I suspect. At least the station isn't pink see image [[30783]].

Nelson [ELR]: A Northern Class 142 crosses the level crossing on Barkerhouse Road, Nelson as it heads to Colne on 21 October 2011. This used to be the location of Chaffers Siding Cabin, as in image [[37478]], which was located to the left of the Pacer.

Edinburgh Airport [Tram]: The retaining wall now running alongside the Gogar Burn within Edinburgh Airport, beyond which work is well advanced on the creation of the new tram terminus see image [[40726]].

Brunstane: Leaving the platform at Brunstane southbound on 21 October is 158728 with the 1031 service to Tweedbank.

Penarth: Once a through station, Penarth is now the terminus of a short (1m 12ch) branch from Cogan Junction. 150259 is forming the 1502 to Cardiff and Rhymney on 21st October 2015. Prior to 1968 the line continued beyond the buffer stops to form a second route to Barry.

Burley-in-Wharfedale: Watched by two potential enthusiasts, EMU 333013 pulls away from Burley-in-Wharfedale on an Ilkley to Leeds service on 21st October 2016. Once the junction for the Otley (and Harrogate) line the station buildings here have been removed and only basic platform shelters are available for passengers but there are frequent trains to Leeds and Bradford.

Corpach: K1 No.62005 races away from Corpach with The Jacobite on a sunny October morning.

Beasdale: K1 No.62005 is going well as it approaches the summit at Beasdale with *The Jacobite *for Mallaig.

Plates, signs, notices etc: These stickers, personalised to the actual carriage, are now found in all Northern trains with passengers encouraged to report any damage or cleanliness issues for prompt attention. This particular vehicle is one half of Newton Heath based Sprinter 150210.

Corpach: Extreme Railway Photography.In the hope of getting a reflection shot, three photographers stand in the cold waters of Loch Linnhe, at Corpach, awaiting the *The Jacobite * steam train hauled by K1 No.62005.

Guiseley: Northern EMU 322485 slows for the Guiseley stop on an Ilkley to Bradford Forster Square service on 211016.

Todmorden: View from the Manchester platform at Todmorden as Northern 156420 slows to call with a Leeds service on 21st October 2016.

Barrow-in-Furness: Dramatic lighting at Barrow in Furness on the late morning of Friday 21st October 2016. The view is looking north-west towards the carriage sidings which have plenty of space free to accommodate the Pacer unit which has just arrived on the terminating 10:04 from Preston and has the calling-on signal cleared for it. This train should have been a class 37 and coaches - I bet the many enthusiasts waiting for it at Preston and Lancaster expecting haulage (and a comfortable trip) were really pleased! The platform 3 down starter on the extreme right is 'off' for the 11:40 departure to Carlisle, which was class 37 worked.

Barrow-in-Furness: The foliage on the right might suggest this was taken in Cornwall but it's actually Barrow-in-Furness! 37402 awaits departure from platform 3 with the 11:40 to Carlisle, having arrived (slightly early) just over ten minutes previously on the 08:42 from the Border city. The train was well patronised by enthusiasts - mostly grey-haired (I hasten to add I also fall within this category) - including Railscot contributor David Spaven, who is lurking in the shadows on the right. 21st October 2016

Burley-in-Wharfedale: One of the small fleet of Class 322 EMUs operated by Northern pulls away from Burley-in-Wharfedale heading for Ilkley on 21st October 2016. 322483 was shuttling between the branch terminus and Bradford Forster Square.

Shipley: 153316 and 142023 call at Shipley station on 21st October 2016 with a Leeds to Morecambe (via Wennington) service. The train is in the 1979 built platform, viewed from the even later 1992 platform. Prior to 1979 a through train like this would have had to reverse in the Bradford branch platforms. See image [[37486]] for the same location in 1974.

Todmorden: Biomass empties head for Liverpool passing south through Todmorden on 21st October 2016. The train has just left the viaduct to the north of the station See image [[57131]]. Motive power is GBRf 66708 Jayne, seen from the Manchester platform.

Shipley: A 153/142 combination leaves Shipley on a Leeds to Morecambe service on 21st October 2016. Behind the Pacer the south to north chord, used by Forster Square to Skipton services, trails in from the left at Shipley (Bingley Junction). See image [[38118]] for a view of this much changed location in 1974.

Apperley Bridge: 333002 calls at the new station at Apperley Bridge heading for Bradford Forster Square while 333004 speeds through on a Skipton to Leeds service.

Exchange Square: Metrolink Tram 3094 reverses on Corporation St, just beyond the temporary terminus at Exchange Square, before running back to the platform and forming a service for Rochdale. When the Second City Crossing (2CC) is complete trams will continue through to St Peters Square to rejoin the existing Metrolink tracks.

Exchange Square: The new tram stop at Exchange Square, Manchester is on the Second City Crossing (2CC) that is nearing completion. At present Exchange Square is the limit of operations but it will soon be on a through line between Victoria and St. Peters Square.

Shipley: Grab shot of the Crossley Evans scrapyard resident shunter from a passing EMU on 21st October 2016. 01507 Venom is a TOPS registered Ruston-Hornsby 0-6-0DH that is still operational. The yard is immediately south of Shipley Station on the west side of the Bradford Forster Square line.

Craigendoran Junction: 62005 takes the loop for a water stop at Craigendoran Junction on a southbound journey to Carnforth.

Market Street: The driver of a tram for Altrincham dutifully cleans out flotsam which wild Manchester weather had deposited in the points. My wife, faced with an immobile tram, made a strategic decision to go shopping; we still caught our train home from Piccadilly.

Bowker Vale [Tram]: It's definitely more colourful in the rain see image [[51065]]. A tram for Altrincham approaches a soaking wet Bowker Vale station on 21st October 2017.

Craigendoran: 334033/009 at Craigendoran with a service to Helensburgh Central on 21st October 2017. View looks towards the west.

Old Lakeside Halt [Tram]: 1901 Hull tram #96 pauses at Old Lakeside Halt on the Heaton Park Tramway for the benefit of visiting BLS members. This tram has a colourful history. It was built as a double decker; has been used as a snow plough and twice as a stores car; was once Leeds #6; and has been on loan to the Beamish museum.

Bowker Vale: A tram for Piccadilly calls at Bowker Vale in October 2017. Like most other stops on the line the trams pull up at a short section of a once lengthy railway station platform.

Coatyburn Siding: The site of Cottyburn Siding on the Haddington railway.

Craigendoran: 334033/009 at Craigendoran with a service to Helensburgh Central on 21 October. Looking east.

Edinburgh Park Central [Tram]: A city-bound tram approaches Edinburgh Park Central on 21 October 2019. I wish I'd been a fly on the wall when the spectacularly unoriginal name of Edinburgh Park was chosen. It was built over a farm called Redheughs; was this name deemed offputtingly unpronouncable to non-Scottish businesses?

Penrith: Early morning view of Penrith station from the grounds of the castle, one time home of Richard III, on 21st October 2019.

Penrith: Early morning view from the Carlisle platform at Penrith on 21st October 2019. This looks north towards the station buildings and shows the old bay, latterly used by Keswick trains.

Penrith: A morning view looking south from the new footbridge at Penrith as 88004 'Pandora' passes through with a Mossend to Daventry service. To the right of the now extended Carlisle platform the Down Loop can be seen snaking through the station. Further over the civil engineers' sidings can be seen. These still see regular use by plant machines and infrastructure trains.

Gogar: A fragment of the Up platform fencing is all that remains of Gogar station. It closed in 1930, unsurprisingly as Gogar parish lacked any centre of population - though there was an 'institution'. A bank HQ now occupies the site of the hospital (no comment) and has a tramstop, but apart from that little has changed. The rural nature is preserved by Edinburgh's greenbelt and by being cut off from the city by the bypass.

Troutbeck: The station at Troutbeck closed on 6th March 1972 and is now a private residence. It has been extended across the trackbed but is partly screened from the road. This view looks towards Penrith in October 2019, from the point where the old overbridge was sited.

Littlewood Siding: The 1726 hrs (2F42) Preston to Ormskirk service approaches the site of Littlewood Siding in the early evening autumnal sun on 21 October 2019. Littlewood Siding was constructed for the Littlewood Brick and Tile Works next to the line with a signalbox controlling access. During WW2 the area to the east of the line became an ammunition and explosives storage facility with all the bunkers connected by a network of standard gauge lines, connected to the main line at Littlewood Siding. Photo taken from a point of safety at a public foot crossing.

Bo'ness: Some DRS class 20 and 37 locos were stored ahead of disposal at Boness in October 2021. 20305 is on the left

Cark: Funny sounding name for a station, although the village is very pleasant. The original name was Cark-In-Cartmel, but these days plain Cark, on the Furness coast between Carnforth and Barrow.

Lancaster: The very informative screen on a Northern Rail CAF 195 113 DMU next to the auld and infirm seating area. The information on the screen speaks for itself.

Lancaster: CAF 195110 arriving at Lancaster with the late running 11.49 Northern service to Manchester Airport on 21st October 2021.

Barrowford Locks and Reservoir [LLC]: During 2022 the canal reservoir at Barrowford was drained for a substantial repair project. The near drought and this loss of supply meant that the Leeds and Liverpool had to be closed for most of the year. This was the scene in October, looking towards Lock 50 with reservoir work continuing alongside. The five Barrowford locks wind round the reservoir as the canal climbs towards the Pennine crossing.

Barrowford Locks and Reservoir [LLC]: Lock 49, a Grade II listed structure, is the first of five at Barrowford that lift the Leeds and Liverpool round the Barrowford Reservoir that supplies the canal. The road bridge that now spans the canal at this point replaced the old narrow bridge from which the photo was taken. Just behind that the M65 also crosses the canal here.

Edinburgh Waverley: Early evening at Waverley on 20 October 2022 sees terminated ECML services occupying platforms 5 and 6, with the 1811 to Manchester Airport about to depart from platform 10.
