And photo 199 of 200 is… a video!
I just couldn’t not share with you this incredible loco. Look at the buffer beam, that’s the driver sat there, on the outside! Amazing! 😍

There’s something strangely satisfying in the way the colours of this class 60 match those of the trees so well 🤔

The first thing you do when you get a new phone is check out the camera right? Photo 196 is courtesy of the new phone and I think it’s pretty good 🙂

I thought the idea was to freeze train fares not freeze the train crews!
If you’re out this evening make sure to wrap up warm, it’s blooming cold out ❄️

Photo 194 is an unusual angle of this beautiful steam engine preparing to leave the station in much the same way we are all preparing to leave the weekend and begin a new week… smooth huh? 😇

The sky is grey,
My fingers turned blue.
There’s a loco in the sidings,
I took this photo for you 🤔
Quite frankly how I’m not a world famous poet is a total mystery!

It’s photo 190! The final countdown has begun!
And with it comes my top tip for dealing with this cold spell: a hot sausage roll is a great way to keep your hands warm 😇
You’re welcome!

Photo 188 should really be a terrible photo 🤔
Grey sky, there are lots of things in the shot that have nothing to do with the subject and the subject isn’t central.
But for some reason I really like it! I hope you do to 😊

The rain is still thundering down and now the wind has picked up to join in the fun.
I hope whatever you’re up to this evening you manage to keep in the dry ☔️

Thanks to the random way shifts work today is my Friday 🥳 For some of my colleagues it’s also their Monday 😩 And for a few others yesterday was Saturday. But for me Saturday is Sunday this week… that make sense? 😇

When you listen to the lyrics in Lose Yourself it sounds like Eminem is rapping about a train driver during leaf fall..
🎵 His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy…
He's nervous, but on the surface, he looks calm and ready 🎵

In just a few minutes it will be the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month. I hope we never forget for who we fall silent on this day each year ❤️ #Remembrance

This is photo 181! That means there’s only 19 left to go! Have a good evening, ideally somewhere warm with something delicious 😊

Remembrance Sunday is one of my favourite days of the year. To watch even the busiest of places fall silent as strangers come together to remember those who gave their lives for us I find incredibly moving.
Photo 180 is dedicated to all of you that take time to remember ❤️
