Long walk from Garsdale to Ribblehead today, stopping at Dent on the way.

The views are extremely scenic, however walking over Blea Moor was a tough challenge. Absolute bog fest, incredible that a line was built in this area.

Ticked the Uckfield line as well as stations between Tonbridge and Redhill!

It's a nice steady line with some well kept stations. Eridge wins as it's looks brilliant along with the 2nd platform being used by the Spa Valley Heritage Railway😍

Came out to see the final day of the blockade impacting the Sheffield Supertram network today.

The Scania Fusion very much a highlight as it's a rare sight in the UK. Also took a ride to Sheffield station, which has been the terminus while the works have been ongoing.

Crossed over onto the dark side today with a trip in Lancashire, focusing on some new stations and lines I'd not done such as Headbolt Lane and Ormskirk.

Decent day with a mix of Northern and Merseyrail, aside from having to travel on a couple of 150s🤮

Back to England today, but started with a couple of HSTs in Scotland and then a Durham Coast divert!

Decent ride round and ticked a couple of required bits of track.

Had to get back from Alness, did that with a short stop at Beauly. The platform is so small here!

Then a excellent run on a HST back to Aberdeen😁

Been on a lovely walk today around Alness and up to Fyrish Monument! First became aware of this stunning location from a challenge in The Traitors and it didn't disappoint at all😍

Bit of left over snow too, it was pretty cold up there for the end of March🥶

I've alighted or departed at every station in Scotland!

Springfield with 5 trains a day being the final one, and two of them pass at the same time so it's a difficult one to tick. Fortunately plenty of buses to get me to Cupar and further north...

Skegness line and Lincolnshire ✅

Some very nice , well-kept stations on here. Also some quite difficult ones because a few of them such as Havenhouse only have a few trains a day!

This line has been recently electrified however there was a throwback to it's previous life this morning with a triple 156 on it🔥

Headed towards Stranraer yesterday, a scenic route however the nice weather seen in England was not present here! Windchill of about 4° all day.

Still a nice line that's quite difficult to tick all the stations on it.

The best place on this line, Barmouth!

It's stunning and can even walk on the footpath next to the railway line over the bridge. So good.

Amsterdam, what a city!

Could walk for hours around those canals, but there's very good public transport too.

The short free ferry from Centraal to Noord was a particular highlight 🚢

It's time for a bit of annual leave!

Starting off with a visit to 🇳🇱, which is a new country for me. A smooth journey on E* to get me over here before riding on a Koplopper for a bit.

Following on from this, I made my way to the very nice city of Utrecht!

70% of stations ✅

Getting some South Eastern stations done today, Elmstead Woods the best of them.

The station gardening team do an amazing job here, it's a hidden gem of a station!

All good things must come to an end and today I had to leave Scotland and head back south.

Started out of Inverness with a HST and a lovely run down the Highland Main Line. Then cleared the Edinburgh trams for the first time, taking in some Sunshine on Leith.

Spent a great few days ticking every station on the Far North Line!

Like all of the routes up here, it's really scenic :)

Also means every station North of the Central Belt complete! It's so good though up here, I'll need to come back up here again😍
