FRODSHAM. On Main Street.
A hop skip and a jump away by train, though it more comfortable if you sit down, is the Cheshire market town of Frodsham.
Transport
SNAPSHOT! Shrewsbury & A Latte.
It’s a Monday and I’m out and about, meeting up with my good friend and fellow photographer the G-Man (Gareth). For once I am reasonably organized, plus the trains made a great connection at Chester, which all means I am in one of my favorite places, the Shrewsbury Coffee House, with time to spare for a soothing latte and a bit of thought organizing.

SNAPSHOT! Preston, Another Saturday On The Station.
It’s Saturday and I’m on my travels. The railways are still like playing roulette but you have to make the effort.

After a flurry of cancellations things seem to have settled down so let’s see what the day brings. Things have settled down and trains are […]
SNAPSHOT! Fleetwood, Just Following The Tramlines.
It’s Tram Sunday in Fleetwood, a celebration of transport and just general fun.

Walking around I think there will be an awful lot of lobster people delicately dabbing soothing creams on in the morning. We’re British, we just don’t […]
SNAPSHOT! Lakeside To Haverthwaite By Train.
If you venture to the southern end of Lake Windermere you’ll find yourself at Lakeside pier and next to it is the terminus of The Lakeside & Haverthwaite Railway. It’s a preserved line, running over part of the track bed that used to connect Lake Windermere with the rail route to Lancaster and Barrow in Furness. In it’s full glory it would have been a fantastic tourism asset as well […]
MANCHESTER SHIP CANAL. Sailing Along.
If any of you out there are fans of industrial archaeology then I would recommend to put a cruise down the Manchester Ship Canal on your “To Do” list.
