Whatever you're doing this Christmas, if you are having to make a long journey in order to get there, I wish you a safe journey.

One from the archives. Sort of missing sunlight, y'know?

Good times in Switzerland. But it didn't take me long to get a bit bored of the seemingly never-ending funiculars, ha.

Mmmm. Fresh.

Explored 12/12/14. Cheers, ta.

The morning this was taken marked what was quite possibly the worst fog / weather conditions I have ever worked in as a train driver. Seriously – it feels less dangerous driving in snow.

Taken on my morning commute to work.

I used to work here. It was a cute little depot to drive in and out of. I never usually drove trains out of the "Boston end", but I used to like the empty runs to it on the dead lates when you ran empty from Heathrow. I do miss driving the 73s.

The S stock looks weird at Northfields, like it doesn't belong!

Northfields had a strange charm I quite admired. I loved it here in the summer, especially with light like this; the sheds ended up looking quite beautiful (it's something about having one end face directly west, and the other end directly east). The staff were quite friendly, and I used to love rolling up to the shunter, cab door open, and saying hello before stabling. The points here are still hand-worked and I always found it fascinating watching the shunter potter around and push/pull points as I waited patiently at the inlet.

I've nearly come to the end of this spate of night shifts. The end cannot come soon enough. It's so pants having been up since the afternoon yesterday, being at work for 10-11-ish at night and then not being home until gone 8AM the next day, but somebody's got to do it. The worst part about travelling home by tube when you've done a night shift is that everybody thinks you're dishevelled out of choice, when really all I want is for everybody to get out of my way so I can get into my bed. Immediately.

Not bad for an iPhone picture, no?

Lovely pub lunch with the OH and his grandad, then the three of us went for a spin in the new car and up to see Tornado passing Norton Junction.

A bit weird being a spectator. The last time I saw this engine, it was blue and I was on it!
