SNAPSHOT! Shrewsbury, Waiting On The Station.

Trundling homeward now, just whittling away the minutes until the train arrives. As station buildings go Shrewsbury does have some class.

SNAPSHOT! Hereford, A signal Failure.

It all started so well. The plan ( make plans and the gods laugh ) was to be a gentle train ride down through Chester, Shrewsbury, the Welsh border and into Hereford.
