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.

Only wishing people from Taplow and Plymouth a merry Christmas? I'm from Plymouth - so thanks, TaplowGreen. I was at the game too. Best I've seen Argyle play this season.
Bristol City did quite well here on Wednesday, too. |

Swindon
Yes, it is ... one of those locations where just a few pixels of border around the train central to the picture tell those of us familiar with the place exactly where it was taken. Swindon, platform 2. The attire of the individual who appears in the photo may lead you to think the picture was taken at Rovaniemi - but that station looks rather different:  This file is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 2.0 Generic license - Phil Richards from London, Sr1 3022 with IC710 waiting a late start on 11 July 2016 - train IC710, 15:20 Rovaniemi to Oulu. |

With six Salisbury based and seven Westbury based trains per day ... I wonder if that will become a daily sight at Swindon from the start of 2019? I think I'll ask Father Christmas for this - give him a year to get it in place:  |

It wouldn't happen to be the special place that had a very special train in last night. It must have been magical..... it arrived 3 minutes early! (Also the five instead of ten was very apt for such a location) Merry Christmas to all forum members! |

I'm guessing the sleigh is parked round the back. The driver now in a meeting without biscuits explaining why he's failed alcohol screening. Hopefully he has a very good ASLEF» * rep with him.
