I've been missing for a bit. Does anyone know where I've been from these pictures? 1.  Unusual to be able to see a station and almost all of the route in one photograph. 2.  A gentle seaside view. 3.  Lighter rail for the lighter side. |

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.

2. Severn Beach Line, just north of St Andrews Road station? Not so far west, and the SVB isn't electrified yet . 1. Lynmouth. 2. Dawlish. 3. Manchester. Lynmouth is on the right track, so to speak, and Dawlish is the reason why I posted the second picture. Manchester's trams are yellow, and a bit younger. |

Why does no-one take TonyK seriously any more? |

Things take longer to happen than you think they will, and then they happen faster than you thought they could.

Why does no-one take TonyK seriously any more? It is a bit of a curve ball, to be sure. As for not taking me seriously, I was a little concerned that my recent change of forum moniker could have unintended effects! 😂 |

Good guess, young Squirrel! No malaise with you!  I shall wait a short while for the denouement to give others who may recognise either of the two other locations a chance. Then I shall explain myself. |

2. Severn Beach Line, just north of St Andrews Road station? Time travel to future electrification has once again been my undoing. 😧 |

You are not alone, I'm sure. Maybe that stretch of the SVB already looks like that in a parallel universe running a few decades fast. |

Out of interest, did you bump into any Bristolian politicians while you were out there?
