We have just passed the Winter Solstice, so from now on it's that little bit lighter every day 🌄

For now though, daylight hours remain short. Stay safe with our guide to cycling in the dark 👉 buff.ly/ZW9WGgP

It's when Christmas Fairs in churches come before Remembrance Sunday gets me
Discussed with an American friend recently. Nothing until Thanksgiving is out of the way.

Indeed. Looks good. Time for a trip and meet up with a friend in Melton

A splendid morning in #Woodbridge made all that much brighter by Mark and the team of volunteer station adopters. They're the folks who plant and care for the lovely floral displays you see at the station all year round.

Made me think of Dickens' The Signal-Man, the gasis of a very good film by the BBC some years ago. Love the railway library.
Still very much enjoying spooky season?👻

Uncover the chilling tale of The Boggart of Kitson Wood Tunnel & other spine-tingling stories in The Loco Vanishes, from Kents Bank Station Library.

Check out Scenic Rail Britain's blog for a sneak peek, if you dare..🧙
