Made it to #Crewe.
No time for a coffee.
But there was time for a #RateMyBuffers.
Which I think would be lucky to score more than ★★☆☆☆
An I right @garethdennis.uk?

A page from September 21, 1921 issue of Electric Railway Journal showing an automatic track bumper for drawbridges that pivots up when the bridge is up and lies flat between the rails when the bridge down.

The end of the rack railway, showing the red rectangular "end of track" sign. The mast for the catenary is directly behind the buffer.
The buffer itself has a rubber bumper with a Scharfenberg sized cutout. Some sort of hydraulic or spring system could cushion a blow.
A look at the end buffer of the Zacke in Stuttgart. Seems a bit small for the end of a maximum 17.8% incline. #RateMyBuffers

A B-Series is stopped on its marks 6 metres from the dummy coupling buffer stop. 10 metres after the buffer stop is the station building on both tracks.
#RateMyBuffers, unlike the Yanchep line, the occupation behind the buffer stop is not an easy through conversion. Ellenbrook line ends at Ellenbrook, forever™.

A small railway buffer (600mm gauge) composed of four horizontal rails, painted red and white, stands before a 50cm high stone wall.
A side view of the same buffer, showing that on the other side of the small wall is a vertical drop off into a gorge of at least 10 meters. A small restaurant with a terrace is in the background. The gorge has nice foliage, and a ruined brick building on the other side.
The reverse view of the buffer, showing the two tracks of the Milies station, and the switches creating the run-around track for the locomotive. The rear of the train is on one of the tracks, clear of the switches. A sign warns visitors not to park on the active tracks in Greek and English.
The Little Train of Pelion is stopped at its intermediate halt, Ano Gatzea.The diesel locomotive in the foreground is styled to look like a steam engine, but it's not fooling anyone. Four vintage wooden coaches painted brown are lined up behind the locomotive.
Milies, Greece, at the eastern end of the Little Train of Pelion. #RateMyBuffers

A Shinkansen train at a platform with conventional buffers visible in the background. The Shinkansen line will be extended from Shin-Hakodate to Sapporo by 2030.
