Bridlington station was opened in October 1846 by the York and North Midland Railway as the terminus of their line running from Hull railway station.

The present concourse shown here and the main platforms date from the 1912 expansion of the station, which included Bell's wrought iron canopies over the lengthy platforms 5 and 6. This new roofed concourse was built and the new station entrance included the original canopy from the old entrance.

HBM to everyone. Have a great start to the new week.

For a population of only around 1500 Kingussie has an impressive 1893 vintage stone-built station on the Highland line between Perth and Inverness.

Facilities include a pre-1915 Edwardian post box (notice the ER VII) although whether these days it is regularly emptied I'm not sure and a Victorian water fountain although that looks defunct - the vandals took the handles!.

HWW to everyone. Enjoy the day.

Some years ago now en route back to Llandudno from Leicester on a Monday morning I took the opportunity, while waiting for the 09.49 train to Bangor, to capture this EWS Class 67 diesel 67022 light engine in bay platform 8 under the impressive roof at the south end of Crewe station.

The rather straight-backed benches on the right don't look so comfortable.

HBM Erzberg Styria Austria 14th July 2024

nobody@ipernity.com (Loose_Grip/Pete) — Sat, 13 Dec 2025 16:36:21 +0000

Loose_Grip/Pete has posted:

We took a journey from Vordernberg on the preserved Erzbergbahn to Erzberg station reached shortly after leaving the 1.294m long Platten tunnel. The line onward to Eisenerz is currently closed.

Diesel railcar 5081.564-6 is seen after arrival. The station used to be the place where iron ore was loaded onto trains that ran over the former rack line to Vordenberg, steam-hauled until 1978 & diesel-hauled until closure in 1988. It was also a passenger station, although there was no exit onto public roads/trails, only to the internal road system of the mine.

Today the output of the open-cast mine is transported by rail but northwards rather than over Präbichl summit.

HBM to everyone. Enjoy the start of the new week.

Loose_Grip/Pete has posted:

Toledo railway station is a real gem inside and out. Designed by architect Narciso Clavería y de Palacios in the Neo-Mudéjar style it was opened in 1919. The railway from Madrid was built in 1858 but the new station was more fitting for the royal city and former capital.

The interior reminds me of London St Pancras station especially the ornate wooden ticket office.

HWW to everyone. Have a great day.

At Manchester Victoria Stanier Black 5 4-6-0 45420 was on station pilot duty sorting parcels vans in the terminal platforms (which now see Manchester's trams come and go instead) when I visited.

45420 was built in 1937 by Armstrong Whitworth and was withdrawn from Newton Heath shed 3 weeks after this shot when the shed closed to steam. Like many of the final survivors of the steam era it was cut up at Draper's scrapyard in Hull in early 1969.

Kemble station was opened by the Great Western Railway in 1845 on the broad gauge line from Swindon to Gloucester.

Note the 2 benches both of the same design but one GWR - pre-1948, the other BR (W) - post 1948. Both Swindon-made.

This fantastic blue & white Azulejo ceramic tile scene on the platform side wall of Nazaré station dates from 1929 & shows Nazaré's beautiful bathing beach and the Praia district.

Note that it is called Nazareth on the scene. Legend has it that the town derives its name from a small wooden statue of the Virgin Mary brought from Nazareth in the Holy Land to Spain, and then to Portugal in 711 by a monk, Romano, accompanied by Roderic, the last Visigoth king.

HWW to everyone. Enjoy the day.
