Castle Cary station is a long way from anywhere.

A long wait at Castle Cary as the connecting train had an air leak with its brakes.

How could someone design such an ugly ship?

Approaching Inverness

I had to catch the lunchtime train to Inverness due to a reduced timetable.Time to kill in Inverness.

Were they playing or tuning up?

Heading to Bristol

I had a seat booked in this train, which someone sat in- no point moving them as the seat next to it was free.

Bristol

I caught the Penzance train here. A few issues. Firstly the train rolled past platform 5 to platform 6, leaving everyone rushing over to get on board. And it wax crowded.

Bridgwater is not particularly bonny, but I did find a picture to make it look good.
