Places to go - rail interest in 2025 - AQ24
Posted by grahame at 06:33, 24th December 2024
 
Some of our members travel by train in the course of daily, regular or infrequent journeys to reach other places or as part of their work.   And some make use of national and international train networks to reach heritage or preserved features or mainline excursions.

Looking ahead to 2025 and travel plans. I will ask in a poll leading uo to th New Year about your general travel plans for 2025, but here to finish our 2024 advent quiz is a poll asking about your plans for rail interest travel rather than general rail travel for 2025

And here are a dozen places for you to identify - mostly my pictures - of some heritage or preserved features.
