Over the years I've taken far far FAR more pictures than I've posted ... I'm thinking of posting a picture each day to Chrismas from 1st December ... for identification and discussion. I expect most will be rail related, most in GWR▸ territory. Some may a bit less usual than our normal pictures - such as this practise one:  |

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.

Yep, that's right ... as the following picture confirmed! I've come across other transport models in case at working public transport interchanges recently too ... where's this?  |

All being kept in reserve for the next bit of flooding on the Somerset levels when the Crosville buses to Hinkley C can't get through.  |
