Actually visited Every Darn Station in Great Britain! Not as dull as it sounds!
Didn’t go very south… One stop to Peterborough.

Time to swap train for bus again and get a number (sorry, Letter… Why is it letters here?) A service to Wisbech where I’ll be calling it a day!

Time to head south again with LNER!

This is the best photo I got… these Azumas arrive into the platform at such a speed, trying to get a decent photo at night is really difficult!

I was once told “The best way to see Skegness is to arrive and leave in as little time as possible!”

Half hour between bus arriving & train departing felt like too long 😬.

Went to Mablethorpe, just walked along the beach for an hour taking in the sea air! The views was beautiful

East Lincolnshire so needs a railway!

Louth looks very nice! Quite annoyed only got 40 minutes here. I will have to return when I’ve not got connections to make later in the day!

Onwards to the coast now and Mablethorpe!

On to bus at Grimsby. It didn’t always have to be like this. If it wasn’t for the Beeching Report in the 60s then it might still be possible to get a train south of Grimsby down the East Lincolnshire Line!

As it is, I’m on a bus thinking how much easier this would be on train!

Time for a trip along the Brigg Line on a blooming class 150! This is definitely the last 150 of the trip!

Silver lining is at least I’ve got a private carriage 🙃

Good morning from Gainsborough!

Had bit of time to kill this morning so went for a walk around the town. Great to finally have some blue skies on this trip!

And that’s a wrap on today’s travels… Gainsborough Lea Road is where I say goodbye to the 150 and hopefully don’t see one again for the remainder of this trip!

Tomorrow I explore Lincolnshire a bit… but for now, I’m off to the pub!

As if a 150 from Castleford to Sheffield wasn’t bad enough… the exact same unit is now taking me to Gainsborough 😭
November 16, 2025 at 8:47 PM
Changing trains at Castleford seemed like a good idea when I found a £10 advance from Darlington to Castleford…

Now my next train is a 150 I’m thinking Leeds was a better choice 😫. Time to head to Sheffield!

York is a funny old station… when I’m not here I always think of it as over rated. But when I’m here I always think it’s rather special!

It’s time to swap little slow train for fast big train!

Said fast big train is also a very busy train! I’ve got a seat though and it’s time to head south!

Safe to say it’s very Autumn now!

The yellow front of this Northern 156 looks right at home surrounded by the trees on the Esk Valley line!

Took a walk from Egton to Glaisdale. Was a couple of rather big hills which delivered some great views from the top!

If station ticking an easy enough walk to tick them off. Otherwise I’d not bother, much better walks to do on the line!

Good morning from Sunderland!

No trip to the North East is complete without a trip on the Esk Valley Line!

Not going all the way to Whitby today, but going for a walk between two stations on the line I’ve not done before!

This afternoon has just been spent for the most part travelling about and visiting a few random towns including Crook & Biahop Auckland!

The £7.50 TNE All zones ticket is great value and covers a big area!

So far today I’ve been to Consett where I was thinking of taking a walk along a disused railway line. Sadly the weather was only getting worse so hopped on a bus to Durham where I’m now gonna just going to wing it for the afternoon before catching up with a friend this evening!

Blyth Bebside ✅

Little late to the party… but finally got here!

Great to see a very busy 4 carriage service! The Northumberland line just keeps going from strength to strength!

Time to head to my hotel for the night!

Things I’ve learnt today on the Durham coastline…

1) Horden is very well used! Great to see new stations being a success!

2) The new platform at Hartlepool is now in use bringing with it more much needed services!

3) That new train order for Northern can’t come soon enough!
November 14, 2025 at 5:14 PM
Darlington where I swap fast train for slow train! Heading out to the Durham Coast Line now!

Great to see the new platforms at Darlington complete! Now just waiting for the concourse and bridge works to be completed and then it’ll be all go at Darlington!

After bus arriving late due to road works and level crossing it was a mad dash from Northallerton town centre to the station.

Got myself a nice £4.20 advance to Darlington less than 15 minutes before the train was due. Rather surprised to find one close the train departure time

After a hectic few weeks at work it’s time for a trip!

Getting things started in Richmond, North Yorkshire after a lift from Kendal from family working in the area today. It’s very beautiful here! Even in the rain. River was very fast flowing!

Northallerton bound now

It’s nearly that time of year…

Let it snow I say!

What’s your favourite type of day out when you travel by train?

Castle?
Museum?
Meeting friends?
Something else?
