Convinced some of these stations are made up tbf

This really has brightened up my work day

Looking forward to 2026, and there’s so much to come… The first Harrison Society gathering! moving house! turning 40! Scotland! Italy! Australia! And that’s just the next two months. However you are spending tonight, and however your 2026 is looking, I wish you all the very best Happy New Year

I made a promise to start developing my own content this year, and whilst I did make a start, life got in the way. A close loved one is bravely battling a difficult illness, and my focus will always be on supporting my family. I can’t wait to make more effort to tell stories when things pick up

Probably the biggest highlight of the year railway-wise (and in general tbf) was The Greatest Gathering. My only regret is only turning up for one day!! Honestly such an incredible event

Let’s start with one of the most exciting part. I’ve been lucky to collaborate on things I’d never have imagined. I got to interview my favourite musician for Wessex Ways. These are moments I will treasure forever.

Over the next couple of days I plan on being a self centred person and reflecting on 2025. It’s been a heck of a year with some great highs and some difficult moments. But what stands out the most, are the amazing connections I have been lucky to have made ❤️🚂❤️

A deserted Fitzrovia on Christmas Morning

A blissful and relaxed Boxing Day after a more difficult than average Christmas Day. Finally got my turkey supper. Absolutely ready for bed before Christmas number two tomorrow

Very cool little present 💘

It’s not the most fabulous Christmas this year, but AI is helping me to try

Four photos of wonderful railway architecture

It’s a shame that there are no longer class 43 locos running timetabled services in England. BUT… They were past their working lives, unsafe and environmentally unfriendly. However we re lucky to have such an amazing heritage rail network, so this testament to British engineering can be celebrated

Absolutely heartbroken to hear that our local “station cat” Nala has passed away aged just 6. Nala was a well known and loved character around Stevenage. He even turned the Christmas lights on once. He will be so missed

Another day with the air ambulance behind my house, and a “serious incident” closing the ECML. My heart breaks every time. I wish we as a society could do more Sending love to anyone who needs it

Just a regular reminder that at the end of Jan a bunch of awesome, transport living ladies are getting together to make connections and have the very best time www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/1972849450...

Whilst we’re on the subject of that mythical place known as East Yorkshire… check out the best restaurant name I’ve ever seen

I love a mansplainer. According to Ol’ Mike here, the county I grew up in, doesn’t exist these days!! What do we reckon @hullhistorynerd.bsky.social @yorkswoldsweather.bsky.social @hullimages.bsky.social - anyone suffering an existential crisis of identity?

Nice little present on my doorstep to cheer up this autumnal Friday

Never ceases to amaze and frustrate me that, despite having to pay for parking, airfares, a bag, and a hire car to get to the destination, flying to Scotland is still less than half the price of train tickets Can’t wait to be back Up North for a big celebration next year

Join us!! It’s fun and it’s FREE!!! (Please share)

Are you a lady who loves railways? Come join us in January for a fun, chilled out evening meeting likeminded people and chatting all things trains The Harrison Society- A meet-up for ladies who love railways www.eventbrite.com/e/the-harris...

Don’t just watch this because I’m in it. Watch it because it offers hope. Connecting communities is the ethos of our 200 year old railway system.

This is an awesome video There’s diesel engines, there’s heritage railways, there’s Rebecca, There’s me, there’s Geoff, there’s a councillor called Chris. But most importantly, there’s a vision. A project that could connect communities and improve lives, which is what the railways are all about.

That @paulwhitewick.bsky.social is sending me stills again… and this time I’m holding an imaginary owl

Recently, I saw a news story where someone with my maiden surname had discovered some interesting genealogy. And by the universal rule of people with unusual surnames all being related…. IM A DESCENDANT OF THREE MEMBERS OF THE GUNPOWDER PLOT Happy bonfire night and all that 🎆🎇

Railway video coming up this weekend.. so I've been playing with a few before and afters. Andover probably 70 years apart.

That @paulwhitewick.bsky.social has been sending me unflattering stills once again. That can me only one thing… BIG VIDEO THIS WEEKEND!

Halloween special! @katesonanadventure.bsky.social @paulwhitewick.bsky.social youtu.be/uu1QPUSEb7E?...

Did you know? That George Stevenson invented the modern cucumber There you go

I absolutely adore these markers on crossroads in the East Neuk of Fife. Can anyone give me an estimate to their age?

It’s a sign…

I am currently obsessed with packing cubes I will be taking no further questions at this time

This was an utter dream come true! Thanks so much to @frankturner.bsky.social for joining me to talk Wessex and so much more ☺️

Wandering through the delightful High Street of Stevenage Old Town… and was met by this… a taxidermy rat in the middle of the pavement Happy Halloween I guess 🎃

First weekend after three weeks of Covid and post-viral fatigue. Time to do some things, see family etc… Or, have a huge sciatica flare up, and spend the weekend in agony… It’s a total joke. Have a train

Realising I left the heating on all night…

So yesterday, for the first time in my life, I had some professional photos taken. And of course… I had to wear the moquette dress in some of them

I’m so lucky to have met so many friends in the railway community, despite it being a passion for me and not a career. And I love the stories I get to tell as a result.

It’s not even 8am and I’ve already used the term “New Age Gricers” more than once. Enjoy a train

I’ve had Covid for a week now. Whilst I’m over the worst the residual fatigue with this “Stratus” variant is tough. Meant to be in Cornwall eating all my favourite things. Instead I’m sulking in Stevenage. Enjoy a train. Yes I’m so fed up I’m sharing a Pacer. I hate Pacers

For the scientifically minded amongst you… If you’ve lost your sense of smell, does vapour rub stop working? Or do the active ingredients keep on working even if you can’t smell it? Yes… I’ve got COVID and this stuff matters, how very 2020 of me Have a train

This was fun to make!!!

Finally spotted 91150 in the wild today. She’s so unique and in my opinion, rather fabulous (Photo from TGG, I was eating chips at the time of today’s spot!)

Casual Globemaster c-17 just flew into LTN. Think my garage window may have popped out

Bluesky seems to be having video compression issues, so here is my favourite little clip from yesterday at Dean Forest Railway youtube.com/shorts/xrUoW...

Great day out with The Whitewicks

Headed home. Train 1 of 5
