Thanks to our superstar volunteers who have planted more than 1,800 trees at #Rugeley Riverside Park over the past month. 🙌

The site was a golf course in its past life, so although there's some existing woodland here, we wanted more native species. Alder, willow, hawthorn, wild cherry...

Back around 1999 took my partner to an interview for #CannockChaseHousing we stayed in a tired, run down travel lodge type place: (you showered as you left it) in #Rugeley the Indian Restaurant gable was daubed with usual BNP vile epithets & swastikas. At night it was mobbed with queues to get in 🤔

Yesterday, I was spare. After sitting for a bit, I requested a train to drive & was given a #Bromsgrove with a guest appearance in p1.
Later on I was asked if I’d work over my day to drive a #Rugeley with an ECS back to #Wolverhampton to stable & taxi back to New St. #DayInTheLife #TrainDriver

Enjoying an incredibly entertaining talk by @mharastarling.bsky.social at #RugeleyRose, learning the origin of Merlin's name, and how he avoided being known as Shitty the Wizard in French 🤣

All set up at the #RugeleyRose for today's Staffs #Pagan Conference (10am-6pm). I'm speaking at 4pm with @folklorepod.bsky.social about our bestselling book #DarkFolklore

Only managed a #Lichfield on my #CrossCity stint due to a train failure which left me with just a #Rugeley to drive at the end of my day. Beautiful sunset today even if it was blinding! #DayInTheLife #TrainDriver #WomenInRail

Overall a good day on the iron road today. Started off with a chunk of #CrossCity followed by #Rugeley then after a PNB a couple of trips to B’ham Intl & a rare visit into platform 4. Nice to see the PRI on for approach as I rarely see that. #DayInTheLife #TrainDriver

#Rugeley was particularly sunny this morning. Visibility was rather impaired driving back towards #Birmingham. Days like today I’m grateful for the AWS audible that confirms the signal aspect. Platform edges were also blinded out in places. #Class730 #DayInTheLife #TrainDriver

Good Morning! I’m back on the iron road for a varied shift today. Starting with a #Bromsgrove followed by a #Rugeley on #Class730 - then I drop a #Class350 up to #SohoDepot & finish with a #Walsall & #Wolves trip also on a 730. Let’s get rolling. #DayInTheLife #TrainDriver

Morning! Today’s iron road job is 2 trips to #Rugeley with the 1st one extending to B’ham Intl. It’s a #RedLeaf day (unsurprisingly). My 1st trip was a #Class350 (/2 - yuck!) & my next will be a #Class730 - I can get a proper comparison on performance! #DayInTheLife #TrainDriver

G’Afternoon. I’m on a break in an almost 10 hour shift on the iron road. It’s not going to be quite so fun #RedLeaf #PoorAdhesion
I’ve got #Class730 all day I’m one #Rugeley down & my next bit is a round trip on #CrossCity before finishing up with another #Rugeley! #DayInTheLife #TrainDriver
