Pictures from my travels hither and thither. Mostly in FGW (First Great Western) land but a few from outside the area that maybe more difficult.

Usual rule, one guess each for the first 24 hours. An incorrect guess and I'll let you have another go!

William Huskisson MP (Member of Parliament) 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.

"Level crossings are safe, unless they are used in an unsafe manner."  Discuss.
