First exhibit in the Royal Signals museum: a model of a 6-bit clacks.
The one at Blandford was part of an Admiralty chain between Plymouth and Whitehall, operating in the first half of the C19th and superseded by the electric telegraph. There was also a branch to Portsmouth.

On the rails again…
Well… temporary rails. In honour of 100 years of the Barcelona Metro, TMB has brought out six models of train, most of them historical.
This is a restored Gran Metro de Barcelona Series 300 metro car that used to run between 1924 and 1987.

People like to rag on Talgo for how much their trains vibrate, and I agree, having been on a Class 106, that it is a huge issue on that model.
Yesterday I travelled on a Renfe Class 130 made by Talgo, and a Renfe Class 120 made by CAF. The 130 was pretty smooth, the 120 definitely led me to […]

I’m in Lleida Pirineus station, stuck in the 2m4m square between the end of the security scanner and the Renfe “check in” desk waiting to be allowed onto the platform because apparently I’m boarding a plane and they haven’t opened check-in yet.

I’ve been on sabbatical, and so it’s been a while since I last wore a collared shirt. Today, for reasons, I find myself wearing one.

It’s also quite likely it’s going to be my last big trip for a few months, for various reasons, most of them good.
