New Holland: View from UK Railtours' excursion, returning from Barton-on-Humber to Cleethorpes, passing New Holland at 13.30 on Saturday, 25th October 2025. This single platform halt-like station was opened on 24th June 1981, replacing New Holland Town and New Holland Pier stations that closed along with the Humber ferries to Hull when the Humber road bridge opened. I had my first and last ride on one of the ferries on 17th June 1981, during the final week of ferry operation and of trains along the pier. See my images [[74210]], [[74190]] and [[79357]].
Inverkeithing East Junction: 60532 'Blue Peter' climbs towards Dalgety Bay with Steam Dreams' Forth Bridge Lunchtime Tour on 29th November 2025.
Dalmeny: 66190 pulls out of the down loop at Dalmeny with an unrecorded Hunterston - Longannet PS working in September 2006.
Stevenage: 91127 shoves 1A31, 1315 Leeds to Kings Cross service, at Stevenage on 13th November 2025.
Lincoln Holmes Yard: A disappearing traffic at a long lost location - double headed class 31s on a block oil train at Holmes Yard, Lincoln in October 1982. The site is now part of Lincoln University .
Cleethorpes: Cleethorpes station forecourt, at 15.32 on Saturday, 25th October 2025 and little changed in the last thirty years - see image [[34609]]. Seen during a short UK Railtours leg stretch stop.
Summerseat: Stretching the term 'DMU', the ELR included their newly resident 125 Group HST set in the line up for the 2025 DMU Gala. The six-coach set was a contrast to the single and two-car DMUs operating the other gala services. 43159 leads the train away from Summerseat heading for Bury on 8th November 2025.
Grangemouth: In May 2006 66408 heads down the Grangemouth branch with 4N78, the 12.56 from Elderslie. Falkirk Stadium opened in 2004, as a replacement for Brockville Park, and I understand it has expanded in capacity since this shot was taken.
Exeter Central: A view of 165103, on a Exmouth to Paignton service, calling at Exeter Central on 11th November 2025.
Aberfoyle Shed: This is the view looking west towards Aberfoyle and the former terminus. From the station a long tramway ran a little west and then directly up an incline to reach the east shoulder of Craigmore before levelling out and continuing on north to the large Aberfoyle slate quarries.
Exeter St Davids: In 1977, Class 37s were very rare at Exeter. However RPPR rail tours took 37269 and 37298 from Paddington to Paignton on 31st July with the 'Western Reunion' railtour. 1062 worked the train from Paignton to Kingswear.
