Due to industrial action there are no trains at Aldershot in this night shot. However Aldershot Town FC are about to play Welling United at the nearby Recreation Ground (and win 3-0) and the floodlights and station lights show a colourful scene on a cold December night.

A beautiful study of Island Line’s Unit 484 002 waiting at Ryde St Johns Road Station with the setting Sun casting its golden rays on the train and the wet track. After 2 x days of heavy rain, the track about a mile away is heavily flooded and sadly the train will be going nowhere for the rest of the day.© Tim Penycate

With the downs above Ventnor in the distance, Shanklin Station glows in the late Dusk. The Sun has gone, the temperature has dropped and the lights are on. A few passengers are waiting for the train back to Ryde Pier Head in the cold evening. Shanklin is the end of the line for trains on Island Line, but the railway once carried on another 5 x miles or so to Ventnor.

London Victoria Station - The old Parcel Office

From the album: Bring Back the Trains!
Look for the place with the stone archway entrance to the left of the escalater - (which was out of service...) Now a currency exchange kiosk. In the days before next day deliveries to your home address, the Parcel Office at London Victoria would have been as busy and bustling as the rest of the station. -
On a dull Summer day, with a stopping train bound for London Waterloo in the background, a Buddleia bush in full beautiful bloom adorns the now abandoned Alton Platform. Buddleia grows like crazy and has beautiful and fragrant flowers which attract bees and other insects. It is very common across the UK railway network!

A Gleaming GWR Express Train at London Padington Station
smb posted a gallery image in Transport and aviation
Looking good! A positively gleaming train at London Padington station waiting to depart on a Great Western Railways express service to Bristol Templemeads. London Padington is, of course, the station from which Padington Bear set out on his world travels... (Or something like that?!!) Well, I don't know if Padington Station was where he started from but he certainly was there at some point... I once saw a picture of him there with his bag and a spare jar of marmalade for the journey!! -
A cold January evening on the Isle of Wight, sees two passengers waiting for the train back to Ryde from Brading on Island Line. As part of major upgrade work on Island Line, Brading Station has been upgraded to have 2 x operational platforms again for the first time since the late 1980s.

The Sun has not long risen and there is a hard frost on the ground at Aldershot Railway Station with Aldershot FC's stadium in the distance. A very thick fog descended and blanked this view out less than 1/2 hour after this picture was taken!

Red Poppies and some other Clourful Flowers at Ropely Station
smb posted a gallery image in Landscapes and seascapes
Image courtesy of Tim Penycate, who writes: “Not so much an English country garden as an English country railway station with an English country garden attached! 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.© Tim Penycate
