Today I'm travelling on the Neilston Branch Line of the Cathcart Circle Line and got to say... impressive little gem!

πŸš† The Anagram Mystery of Two Railway Stations.

Is this a perfect mirror image or a geographical fluke? I’m taking a cross-country journey to investigate why this pair is so "surprisingly controversial."

This Sunday, I'm travelling between two Stations as they have one thing in common. The Railway Stations names are Anagrams of each other but think this one is the most controversial one!

I went to Birmingham today to ride the West Midlands Metro's newest extension, the Eastside Extension. They pulled a peaky blinder to get this opened for Easter!

I’m riding the new tram line to check out the stops at Albert St and Millennium Point.

I’m back on the Northumberland Line to visit the final stations and explore the history of the old Blyth & Tyne.

See what the finished line looks like from Ashington to Newcastle 60 years after it closed. Watch the full journey here: youtu.be/tbS9d23p3eE

I'm revisiting the Northumberland Line to celebrate the opening of its final station: Bedlington!

I also explore the remaining stations on the line, and see how this "roaring success" of a project is looking now that it's finished.

Suprised that Darlaston and Willenhall are opening before Bedlington and the Camp Hill Stations. There was a rumor date for the Camp Hill Stations to be open today but that got debunked quick.

It's been a while since I've visited some disused stations. These are South of Crewe, heading towards Stafford on the WCML.

Betley Road (1875 to 1945)
Madeley (1837 to 1952)

Both can be accessed by D&G bus 85 which runs between Nantwich and Newcastle-under-Lyme
