Took a trip on the Northumberland Line yesterday. The return train from Newcastle to Ashington was quite full boding well for when all stations are open. It’s certainly good for getting shots of familiar landmarks from different angles.

I was a regular visitor to Lymm, Cheshire, from 1959 to 2019. My uncle married a lady from Lymm. Loved the village, mainly for its choice of ales in the pubs but also for the Bridgwater canal.
