@ChimeWhistle That's even worse than just being over the yellow line. Utterly ridiculous. Feel for the Pendolino driver.

@TheModsterX According to FB post, he had toes over the white edging of the platform - prompting Pendolino driver to give a few blasts on the horn.

And it's behaviour like this that gives us enthusiasts a bad name. Got what they deserved, hope the elderly enthusiast is ok. If you're gonna go to a station, follow the damn rules and stay behind the yellow line.

Isn't often you get back to back steam. Two in five minutes, 60532 Blue Peter and 34067 Tangmere through Penrith yesterday heading for Carlisle.

Proper weather for seeing steam in Kent today. @ClanLine28 captured from high above powering through Capel-le-ferne along the Dover seawall

@rebehccca Happy Birthday!

thanks for all my bday wishes so far 🎉🍾

Finally seen 60532 Blue Peter in the flesh. What a machine, a grand job from all involved to see this icon steam again!

A top day out filming the steed of mainline steam, 35028 Clan Line putting on a great show throughout on yesterday's End of Southern Steam railtour with @railwaytouring: youtu.be/RFMPHHocXu8?si…

Had a fantastic time at @SwanRailway's Strictly Bulleid II event last weekend, amazing to see so many of these engines working on one line!

An absolute thrill to ride Leander's footplate on the EOR today, was hard to believe it was bowing out of service today given the performance! Video shows her departing Ongar on her very last run, with owner Chris Beet driving and detonators sounding. Farewell for now old girl.

Back where she belongs. 7029 Clun Castle under the roof of London Paddington this evening having brought 1Z48 from Plymouth.

Still the best Jubilee in my opinion. LMS No. 45690 Leander at Ropley on the @Watercress_Line today. A top event from the line this weekend and great to finally ride this beast!

Spent the weekend in the north for @eastlancsrly Legends of Steam. It's hard to pick a favourite loco from the event, but the return of 70000 Britannia was definitely a highlight. That whistle and Britannia bark has been sorely missed! Filmed at Great Eaves Rd crossing.

Went to the NRM. Saw some trains.

34046 Braunton tearing through Andover this morning on the @Steam_Dreams excursion to Bath.

@railwaytouring @Steam_Dreams In reality the two locos passed within 5 minutes of each other. The footage: youtube.com/watch?v=zWwlD0…

The near spectacle at Doncaster today which was missed by about 5 minutes. Black 5 44871 heads a @railwaytouring trip on the DF, while sister engine 45231 'The Sherwood Forester' slows into P4 to pickup a crew member, hauling a @Steam_Dreams excursion, both heading for York.
