Is it just the light, or is 150 232 looking a bit dirty?

Thats strange. I was on an HST▸ on its way up from Cornwall today and it was also in the (very unusually) same condition. Wonder if Laira has a problem with its carriage washer as usually sets off Laira are in immaculate condition. |

William Huskisson MP▸ was the first person to be killed by a train while crossing the tracks, in 1830. Many more have died in the same way since then. Don't take a chance: stop, look, listen.
"Level crossings are safe, unless they are used in an unsafe manner." Discuss.

Calstock it's a Great place to visit for a day out!
2 pubs, cafe, plenty of walks available including riverside walks, you can walk up and down the old Incline railway.
On a Side Calstock is the ONLY Ex Southern Railway station still open in Cornwall.

Gunnislake gets the "QI buzzer" Having been resited in 1994. Sadly now a modern platform. Happily with buses able to interchange there. Sadly I think the bus (or some of them) may have gone ... certainly not First anymore.  |

Gunnislake gets the "QI buzzer" And an incorrect answer. The current gunnislake station isn't the Southern station. |

I'll concede if you've never watched QI, you wouldn't know the buzzer (I've since thought it's actually a klaxon) is sounded for an answer that might at first seem obvious and correct, but often incorrect due to a little known fact, common misconception or technicality. |

Gunnislake isn't a Southern Station, it's a Cornwall Council/Highway Agency Station they Built it:
