Just checked the weather app. Seems if you’re heading out today you should wear shorts and a scarf, take sunscreen and an umbrella and prepare for strong winds on this calm day 🤷‍♂️

When you look that good who can blame Tiny Shunter for staring at it’s own reflection?! 🤷‍♂️

Anyone here going to the depot open day at the weekend? Should be a great day out 😊

Seems the rain has arrived today, which is good news as it means I’ve an excuse not to do all those outdoors jobs I’ve been trying to put off😇

Here’s a thought 🤔 If Rev Awdry had started writing the Thomas the Tank Engine series today, 80 years later, would Sodor still have been using steam engines? Or more modern traction? 🤷‍♂️

Today is special as it’s one of those rare moments when two great things coincide, a weekend and some sunshine 🙂

Behold! The high speed… okay it’s not here yet The high sp…. just give it a minute …it’s almost here …any moment now… Behold! The High Speed Train!

Current situation: have landed safely in London, food situation was critical but an omelette is being prepared as I type. Have a cracking day 😊

Nice to see Ipswich taking part in “no-mow-May”. Lawn’s looking lovely! 😂

Thank crunchie for the good staff who work painful hours to get the Co-Op open so that wombles like me who leave their mugs of tea behind can get a replacement even at 6am 😊

Focus on this photo long enough and you’ll probably be able to hear it 😊

Highlight of the day, possibly the year, has to be being recognised as “the snack guy” 😂 amazing

Not the best video in the world but what a soundtrack! 😍 Eight years ago today I paused an evening walk to see what was making so much noise

A train, a plane and a sunset, fantastic 😊

Don’t let the fact that Monday has happened again get you down. Time to climb in, start up and have a great day 😊

Well that’s the last time I try to make a passenger announcement! “Sorry for this delay, it’s due to over engineered running works”… 🤦‍♂️

This is an example of the iconic High Speed Train 🤔 one of only a handful of things that goes quicker than a weekend 😂 Have a great Saturday!

Bakers, fire up your ovens! Tall Bloke is on his way to London 🙂

I’ve just got up off the floor after laughing at an AI drawing of a tiny shunter. It was the lack of wheels on one side that got me 😂

Not all office window views are dull 🤔

I’m on standby today so if any of you need me I’ll probably be in Greggs 😇

As it seems Summer has already ended here’s something bright to add some light to your day 😊

Guys, this is Bob 😍

This is Percy. He really wants you to go out today and vote. He doesn’t mind who you vote for, he just wants to know you had your say. Don’t make Percy sad 😢 Get out and vote 🙂

A magical moment happened yesterday when a herd of deer ran parallel with the train along the edge of a field 😊 Gave me the gooseberrybumps!

As today is the 5/5 it feels like a good excuse to celebrate the class 55 🥳

I hope Bluesky gets better at working out what things I’d like to see on my timeline. Maybe if I drop it a few hints… 🚂 🎂 🐶

Today is giving all the signs it could be quite toasty 🤔 time to put on the steel toe-capped flip flops and Summer balaclava

Apparently the “tow rope” I keep in my car is a bit overkill. But what if we meet a broken down train while we’re out and about?! 🤷‍♂️

This entire train is basically a buffet coach 🤔 I think we’ve found railway perfection!

Good news! I’m back 🥳 How is everyone? Did I miss anything?

Happy Easter/Shunter Sunday everyone! ❤️

There’s no easy way to explain this, my train seems to have grown a beard 🤔

Seeing as today is April Fuels Day here’s a photo of the refuelling point at the depot 😊

Good morning and welcome to Suspicious Monday! The morning we wake up and are suspicious of the first clock we see as we can’t remember if it’s showing the right time or not 🤦‍♂️

I’ve been getting milk delivered for 4 years now so you’d think I’d have started remembering and stopped going out the front door and kicking all the bottles over by now 🤦‍♂️ Ho hum, here’s a fabulous looking train!

As today is technically my weekend I requested a full day of sunshine so you know what that means… coats on everyone! 😂

The railway gods have been watching over me this week 🤔 A few days ago the train in front of mine was sadly involved in a fatality and then last night a tree fell onto the tracks moments after I passed it! Feeling very grateful right now 😊

I knows that nose 🤔

Yesterday featured the greatest run across London I’ve ever had! Green signals the entire way from Shenfield to the Street 😊 Marvellous!

I made it safely through day one back at work after annual leave with no disasters! Round of applause for me please, thank you 😊

Tis the final day of annual leave today ☹️ I mustn’t complain though as it’s been a lovely week and I’ve made some wonderful memories. Have a great Saturday wherever you go 😊

SITREP: I’m at least 90 percent full of cake and this stunning thing is running around the countryside. Things in this part of Norfolkland are looking pretty good 😊

I’ve done the weekly shop, shall we see what I remembered? Bread… ❌ Milk… ❌ Something for dinner… ❌ Nameplate for a steam locomotive ✅

Happy St Patrick’s Day everyone! I hope today brings you good luck and even better food 😊

In a crazy, unpredictable world it’s nice to find some familiar things you can depend on. Oh look, a Class 37! 😊

That cheeky wink is definitely saying “come drive me 😉”

If you’re feeling that now Monday has arrived the weekend has hit the buffers don’t despair 😊 there’s another one only a few days away 😇

To all the incredible women I’ve been lucky enough to know, Happy International Women’s Day!

I’m miffed I missed World Book Day apparently. I was going to dress as the Train Driver’s Rulebook 🤔 I’d just need to wear something very heavy, be awkward to move about and keep randomly getting changed every few hours 😇
