Ah, look, here's the photo from my angle...

I'm struggling to understand the constraints at either end of Filton Bank. Presumably the works at BEJ will give more routing options and flexibility, but what about the other end? I feel S&TE may have explained all this (possibly more than once) but I've just spent half an hour staring at the track diagrams and I'm not the wiser, and not much better informed...

Can anyone help?

According to NASA, global warming is the driver and climate change is the effect. Global warming certainly isn't just a perception; it is the measurable yearly increase in mean temperatures.

I note that some prefer the term 'climate breakdown', which does perhaps convey the urgency of action a little more assertively.

...or a 'Motorists please push your vehicle' sign?

Forgive me if I am going off topic slightly, but puffin crossings are all badly-signed by design. How anyone could possibly imagine that putting the signal on the post where you wait is a good idea defies reason: on crossroads, this often makes it unclear which crossing the lights refer to. On top of that, the pedestrian lights appear to be deliberately angled so that you can't see them until you are stood right at the crossing, which just makes life that little bit harder.

It's not contrary to the received wisdom on global warming. Global warming science predicts extreme weather events, be they storms, rain, droughts of heavy snow.

In all this world, why I do think,
There are five reasons why we drink:
Good friends, good wine, lest we be dry;
Or lest we should be, by and by;
Or any other reason why.

If you can fit all that onto a placard, come and join us on Friday!

I found this a bit hard to follow! I think I just voted for retaining standard gauge (and nothing else!); I would have liked to be able to vote for electrification!

As I've said elsewhere, I would keep the scenery just as it is, and only make minor safety updates to stations. Other than that, for the most part I'd rather have a train service than a museum.

My daughter asked to attend a school strike in the summer, and I went with her because she finds crowds a bit scary. It was the first time she'd ever been to a 'demo', and I was focusing on her and whether she was OK. It was only when she overcame her shyness and held up the banner she'd made that I realised that this was my first demo too!

What's the point? Is it virtue signalling?

The strike I attended was one of the largest to date. I thought many people would be getting grumpy because they could not get about, but this was absolutely not the case. Bus drivers, their engines switched off, were high-fiving the kids as they walked past. Cafe owners were coming out onto the street to give them free drinks.

Being there gave me something that is in pitifully short supply at the moment: hope.

And for what it's worth: Greta Thunberg says she's coming by train. My daughter (whose name is not Jemima) and I will walk there.

This is the same throughout England. Road schemes just have to connect up to the Highways England funding firehose, whilst sustainable transport has to scrat around like Bear Grylls looking for patches off moss to wring a few drops from. Something has to change!

Apparently there's a unicorn burrow at the foot of Temple Meads Station incline, which could easily be turned into a tube station...

That was the reason I had in mind.

He's very good, isn't he? Yup, that's me.

This was the 'farewell to the KSW's' tour. I may be able to find the precise date if I dig deep enough. I think YHT924 may have been out that day too. I seem to remember going round Shirehampton Green three times, and quite a struggle getting up Allison Road...

A departure from the usual format; I suspect most people will recognise the location, so this is more of a 'Where's Wally?':
