One of the greatest things about train travel is the views from the window, so we loved seeing all your entries to our Scenic Rail View competition!
You can see just a few of them in this blog: bettertransport.org.uk/blog/celebra...

A photo of the Conwy Estuary near Llandudno, Wales, showing the estuary, a mountain in the distance, and a train line and housing in the foreground.
A quote from competition winner Kirk: "The photo of the Conwy Estuary is taken from the Deganwy ‘Mountain’ officially named The Vadre. There are footpaths from Deganwy and it takes a steady 40-50 minute walk to the summit from the station. A much easier walk with equally stunning views is along the coastal path from Conwy Station via the Quayside and Deganwy to West Shore, Llandudno. This mainly level walk takes less than two hours and there are a few cafes on route!"
We're very pleased to announce the winner of our #BetterTransportWeek #scenicrailview competition with @scenicrailbritain.bsky.social ...🥁🥁🥁
