Two station Christmas trees bookending my journey today. I suspect the locations will be easily guessed, but I'm posting in celebration of my first train travel in over 3 weeks. Unheard of for me. I've been suffering severe ferroequinological withdrawal symptoms.   |

Second guess is correct. Teignmouth was my destination. |

The "Travelling this Christmas from Teignmouth" poster is a bit of a giveaway!

Famous last words, possibly, but I don't think that's Taunton.  |

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.

For some reason I do really like those doors though, there's something classic about them with the parallel handles. I noticed a plusbus poster in one of BNM's photos; yesterday I notched up 8 journeys on a railcard discounted Southampton+Bus. That's less than 20p per trip! |
