The location is London Victoria railway station. On the left a SouthEastern class 375 with it's headlights on. On the right Southeastern Class 465 painted in the red white and blue of Network southeast. The ground is a bit wet .

THE best looking networker out there. I'm sure @serailway.bsky.social agrees?

A Yougov survey I did today asked for my favourite book... I don't really have a favourite but I did put " I hate JK Rowling" I thought that was a good one ..

Trans Actual's report entitled 'Trans Segregation in Practice. Experiences of trans segragation following the Supreme Court Ruling'.

TW.
Needs to be widely shared with cisgender people, especially politicians. Utterly horrifying that Britain has come to this- that most of Britain is just looking the other way while a whole community is being eliminated from society because of lies and hatred. transactual.org.uk/wp-content/u...

Little visit to the #rail200 inspiration train at #Freightliner depot at Doncaster
Fairly interesting, A 90 and 66 on display which was good.

Absolutely ridiculous. But then I bet most of them in there are of a similar vain

Another day of disruption at work , Add in a Person hit by a train (Not my train but we were coming in the other direction) and it all gets a bit much. Thankfully I've a lovely wife who will listen to my tale. And just lifts me up , I am so lucky. ❤️💗

Just a reminder that this is still very much accurate and relevant. Even when the EHRC publish the Code of Practice, which does not change the actual law.

Just posted a train picture, usually means I'll post a picture of me too ... because why not.. 🏳️‍⚧️ shout out to all my trans followers and allies ❤️

Favourites from the Greatest Gathering? 465908 in Gorgeous NSE, love a Eurostar TMST and of course class 50s.... 🥰

Very rarely hold my wife's hand in public. 🙂‍↕️
