Title: Re: Where Were We On 20th & 26th September 2025 Post by: Chris from Nailsea on October 03, 2025, 16:51:30 I know, but I'm not saying yet - other than to record here that neither of them are Melksham or Taunton.
My sister lives in France. CfN. ;) Title: Re: Where Were We On 20th & 26th September 2025 Post by: DR7835 on October 04, 2025, 17:35:49 I know, but I'm not saying yet - other than to record here that neither of them are Melksham or Taunton.

One of the city's tram lines is international - runs into Germany. And beware the hotel with the wheelchair accessible room .... which has steps you can't avoid to get into reception in the first place.

So one final shot from our trip to identify. Title: Re: Where Were We On 20th & 26th September 2025 Post by: JayMac on October 06, 2025, 20:20:42 Varenna–Esino–Perledo station, Lombardy, Italy.
Title: Re: Where Were We On 20th & 26th September 2025 Post by: Chris from Nailsea on October 06, 2025, 21:12:43 Easy for you to say, with a Somerset accent. :o
Title: Re: Where Were We On 20th & 26th September 2025 Post by: Bob_Blakey on October 07, 2025, 08:06:48 Varenna–Esino–Perledo station, Lombardy, Italy. Correct. Anybody familiar with this location will notice that what was a twin-track passing loop is currently reduced to a single line. Looking north, as in the photo, the right-hand platform is being rebuilt and is out of use. To provide sufficient space for the often large numbers of pax using the station - Varenna is a very popular rail<>ferry interchange - the left-hand track has been (I assume temporarily) boarded over.
