A lovely path for walks and cycling has been constructed on what used to be the track bed of the old Strawberry Line in North Somerset. Here, you can just about make out the platform of the long abandoned Congresby Station, hidden among the undergrowth of brambles, ivy and beautiful wild summertime flowers. The Strawberry Line Trail currently runs from Yatton to Cheddar, mostly following the route of the old Strawberry Line Railway. There is an ongoing campaign to get the trail extended all the way to Shepton Mallet, via Wells is Somerset: Here you go...You can sign the petition, if you want! http://www.thestrawberryline.org.uk/index.php

Traditionally there is said to be a crock of gold at the end of a rainbow. Perhaps this is proof it's really where one comes from?

This photo was taken before the eruption of taal in Jan 2020, nice and calm!

Some beautiful flowers brighten up a dull day at Ropley Station on the Mid Hants Railway!” The Midhants Railway, in the South of England, is otherwise known as the "Watercress Line." It is very popular with local tourists and day trippers who love to ride the trains which are hauled by some beautiful old preserved steam locomotives.
