Good morning to you all from the Merseyrail platform at Liverpool Lime Street. I’m on my way to Chester to see how far the rebuilding of the new market hall is progressing. Obviously this may involve coffee and cake so watch this space. This isn’t the quickest route for me to get to Chester but it’s an interesting one, going under the Mersey and out down the Wirral. There’s sections […]
The day had been going well, however a couple of transport glitches means I’m at Oxenholme station waiting for a train down to Lancaster. No point in getting ratty about it, it is what it is. Anyway there’s something a bit magical about a railway out in the countryside in the evening. The local wildlife begins to take over the station as those dratted humans beggar off out of the […]
Right, an off and about day again. The Lake District is in my sights again, travelling up needed a change of trains at Preston, the powers that be say that train usage is still low, not sure that’s right…..
Okay so I ate the croissant. Today’s expedition is to the Lake District, not got off to the most organized of starts, auto ticket machines are not the most straightforward things to use. Anyway sat sitting waiting for the next train north so that’s and excuse ( like I ever see need one ) for a coffee and a croissant.

Trundling homeward now, just whittling away the minutes until the train arrives. As station buildings go Shrewsbury does have some class. Built by the Great Western Railway it has the imposing presence of an abbey. Right, electric scribbling over, the train is scuttling into the platform. Enjoy your evening all.
