Blandford Forum: Blandford Forum is looking a bit worse for wear in this shot from 1970 although more or less intact but without track. Passenger services over the Somerset & Dorset ended in March 1966 but goods traffic continued to Blandford until January 1969, with track lifting reported as taking place later that year.

Raskelf: 60532 'Blue Peter' is seen working the Locomotive Services Ltd 1Z46 Kings Cross to Edinburgh special, near the former Raskelf station site, north of York, on 27 November 2025. It was running 21 minutes down at this location from a delayed restart from York, following the changeover from Deltic D9000 that had hauled the working from Kings Cross. Still taken from a video of the working.

Crianlarich: A BR 'Land Cruise' pauses at Crianlarich in September 1988 on its way back to Lancaster from Oban. I’ve seen a photograph somewhere of the same tour on arrival at Oban with the headboard ‘West Highlander’, but ‘Lancastrian’ must have been preferred for the return journey. The locomotive was 37407 ‘Loch Long’.

Exmouth: 165104 has arrived at Exmouth on 11th November 2025. The station is now just one platform, but enjoys a mostly half hour service to Paignton via Exeter.

Retford High Level: D9000 heads through Retford on 27th November 2025, with LSL 1Z46 0845 Kings Cross to Edinburgh. The Deltic came off at York for 60532 'Blue Peter'.

Landore MPD: 03144 and 03145 at Landore in 1983. These locos had cut down cabs to work the former Burry Port and Gwendraeth Valley Railway. Both were subsequently preserved.

Darlington [Bank Top]: 55014 departs Darlington, with the 0755 Kings Cross Edinburgh service, on 21st May 1977.

Ewood Bridge and Edenfield: When I photographed the old goods shed at Ewood Bridge and Edenfield in 2017 (See image [[58404]]) it was out of use and looked like it might fall down. However, it has been patched up and weather proofed and is in use again as a workshop. Several other buildings occupy the goods yard so this old wooden shed is an unlikely survivor in 2025.

Ewood Bridge and Edenfield: Over fifty years after I stood at this point with 'Cam' Camwell during the last week of BR services on the 'Rawtenstall Branch' (see image [[21224]]) there is a Cravens unit heading for Rawtenstall again. There couldn't be a better line for this now unique set to be resident on. This was the first train of the ELR 2025 DMU Gala on 8th and 9th November. The Ewood Bridge goods shed still stands on the site of the old yard, but is now surrounded by other buildings.

Cleethorpes: UK Railtours' excursion which left Finsbury Park at 06.19 behind 50007 and 50008 with 37901 attached at rear at Doncaster, has now arrived at Cleethorpes at 12.09 on 25th October 2025. 37901 is now at the head as the train waits to depart on the second stage of the tour, back through Grimsby Town, to Barton-on-Humber.

Aberfoyle: Just east of Aberfoyle station, and the shed, the railway to Buchlyvie crossed the Allt Vingen. A replacement bridge has been installed as the trackbed is a footpath as far as Buchlyvie.

Mountfield Gypsum Mine: 66711propels its train of empty gypsum containers from Mountfield Gypsum Works to the sidings adjacent to the Hastings line south of Robertsbridge on 1st September 2003. The train is the 12.10 to Southampton West Docks where the containers will be loaded with gypsum stone (which has arrived by sea from Spain) for the return journey.
