Planes and trains but no automobiles.
A class 156 train at a station decorated in Royal Air Force livery. There is text saying RAF 100 and RAF roundels.

I have only seen it twice. I once went to a film night which showed Threads and When the Wind Blows as a double bill, one person literally turned green. Threads has one of the best IMDB cast lists ever.

I’ve not posted any trains for a while.
A large black steam train, almost entirely obscured by steam. On the right a person is standing on the platform wearing red. A large black steam train, partially obscured by steam. In front on the platform a woman in a wheelchair is looking at the train, she has a camouflage pattern bag on her chair. One wheel is pink and the other is blue.

Wrote to my Labour MP about the EHRC. I said in my email don’t you dare use the words “dignity and respect” and he hasn’t. Otherwise his answer is a completely expected 🤮.
I want to thank you for taking the time to get in touch with me and share your perspective on this vital issue and for relaying your personal experiences of the difficulties that the draft guidance will cause. As your local representative, I remain committed to building a fairer, more inclusive society and to standing up for our marginalised communities.I know April’s Supreme Court judgment has caused concern, and I understand the deep frustrations which you have expressed. Ministers have emphasised that while single-sex spaces must be safeguarded, trans people must also be protected. Importantly, this judgment does not alter the fact that trans people remain a protected group under the Equality Act 2010 and should be able to live their lives free from harassment and discrimination. As you know, the purpose of the EHRC code is to help relevant organisations ensure they can comply with the Equality Act, including access to single-sex spaces. As MPs, it is part of our role to make sure a diverse range of voices are heard, including the trans community, so I thank you for relaying how it will affect you and your familly. Ministers made it clear to the Equality and Human Rights Commission that the consultation had to be meaningful and properly engage with affected groups. I understand more than 50,000 people responded to it, and that the Commission met with people representing affected protected characteristic groups, as well as parliamentarians. The approval process does not automatically require a parliamentary debate to be held. If the Government approves the code, Parliament has 40 days in which to consider it and if neither of the Houses of Parliament passes a resolution disapproving it, it will come into force. The Government has given assurances that in its scrutiny of the code, it will consider equality impacts in line with the Public Sector Equality Duty and will ensure people have appropriate access to crucial services.

Kudos to Bedford Doctor Who con, yesterday they booked Frances Barber not realising she was a massive transphobe. Within an hour of being told they apologised and booted her from the con.
Post from Bedford Who con reading “Further to our earlier posts this morning, and having reviewed the issues of which we were - in all honesty - previously unaware, we are making the announcement that Frances Barber will not be attending the convention. With best wishes to everybody. Simon Organiser”

This really exists, but they are cis women, not trans. Their stage names include Skirt Cobain and Dave Grrrrl.

Old Felixtowe station, they closed it, lifted the tracks and made the former track area a car park. 😭
An old station building with station awnings to the left and front. There are cars parked where the trains used to be, there is a dark car parked to the front and a white car just pulling in.

I do like a good tunnel
A railway tunnel from a station platform. Three tracks enter the tunnel but the two tracks on the right merge before the tunnel mouth. There is a red signal above the platform.

Lovely 57 at Peterborough station on Wednesday. It was assisting a steam special but the steam end had broken down.
Black 57 locomotive number 57311. The train is stopped at a platform. The front of the train is yellow.

There’s a fucking wiki page.
Screenshot from a transformers wiki on transformer romance. The page confirms that gay transformers exist.

197 for me. Each indicator has an “autistic”range and I am off the scale for every one. This pleases me.
Autism score, very high 197

This is my Jaguar. It is very battered and substantially modified, I ripped out all the electronics and put in an SG switch and it has a cut off switch for stuttering effects.

Today I saw this seriously fucked off fish.
A tank of large goldfish, gold and white. The largest one looks very grumpy.

A class 66 freightliner train. The train is behind a wire fence, the fence gives an interesting visual effect.
