Forecast: Fog. They weren't wrong. Couldn't resist heading out with my camera this morning. It was definitely a day for black and white.

A lot of people joining Bluesky! Welcome! It will take you a minute to get used to the lack of Nazis, but soon you’ll realize that Twitter had normalized you to behavior that should never be normal.

That wonderful colour combination! Just one of the many beauties of St.Pancras (including the trains)!
Day 3 of my working week and it's the 10:31 to Paris again. Some lovely chats with passengers finding out where people are heading. Destinations include Angoulême and Cannes.

Back on the iron road after a 2 day First Aid refresher. Always makes me smile when we get to the "and next call 999/112" part. It's not as straightforward on our trains. This has to be done via driver/signaller to arrange a suitable location. It could be a station we don't normally stop at.
