A train in the rain. One of D7018 from the archives. "Class 35 'Hymek' no D7018 at Blue Anchor on a very wet 11 June 1993 with the 12 coach 6pm Minehead to Mallaig special." [my pic] #railway #wsr #somerset #mallaig #minehead #hymek #rain

The 'Baggie Twins' - #Bagnall 0-6-0ST nos 2994 'Vulcan' and 2996 'Victor' at #Minehead, #WestSomersetRailway in 1980s. Long gone from the #WSR but still fondly remembered by some ;) Both now elsewhere - #Lakeside and #NorthTyneside - and still working I believe.

If, like me, you cannot be there, next best thing is the Webcam page. Enjoy.

A handy e-guide for the West Somerset Railway traveller. Great for local train or through train alike. In the style of the old GWR guides. Just go to wsr.org.uk/ttw on your smartphone browser. Just look Through the Window. #Minehead #Watchet #Dunster #WSR #Somerset #ThroughTheWindow #Railway

A thumbnail image of another 'double royal' size map-based poster I have created. Very unofficial. Not printed. Not appearing on poster boards. One day, maybe. #WestSomersetRailway #WSR #Somerset

Just finished the first version of the online "Through the Window", kinda based on the paper editions from decades ago. wsr.org.uk/ttw.htm It may be useful to travellers on the many through trains to Minehead #railtour #wsr #somerset #ukrailways #heritage Here's the cover...

A new page - Photospots - has over 100 suggestions for #photography from publicly accessible locations along the line. More to be added as and when. Find it under the Camera on the top menu bar or type in the website name plus "/photospots". #ukrailways #somerset #steam #wsr #westsomersetrailway
