Stonehaven: SWGR operatives gritting the rails at Stonehaven on 19th November 2025. Rather novel gritter. Looks like a 5L bottle of sand trickling out onto the rail head.

Bishopsgate Low Level: View from 720518 approaching Liverpool Street, passing the remains of Bishopsgate Low Level at 13.03 on Sunday, 26th October 2025 while on the way home from a visit to the new Beaulieu Park station that opened on this day. This station was opened by the GER in 1875 with the extension to Liverpool Street and the original Eastern Counties Bishopsgate terminus was relegated to goods traffic. It survived as such until a disastrous fire, in which two people tragically died, precipitated its complete closure in December 1964. The Low Level station, beneath the viaduct to the original 1840 High Level terminus, was closed as a First World War economy in 1915 but never reopened.

Mgaar: Viewed from the small island of Comino, MV 'Nikolaos' leaves Mgaar on Gozo, for the fifteen minute crossing to Cirkewwa on Malta, on 29th October 2025. This vessel, slightly smaller at 4200 tonnes compared to the other three in the Gozo Channel Line fleet, also differs in that it has a single bridge whereas the others have a separate bridge at each end of the ferry. Comino is only served by small tourist boats rather than the ro-ro ferries.
