Well, finally back home this morning!
No, I am not a train driver, but work as an "On Train Technician" on one of Notwork Fail's track inspection trains.
Click here to see last Mallaig run I did 2y ago.

We tend to get a bit blasé about the scenery we travel through, we see so much of it!

Fort William on Wednesday night wasn't bad but wet again getting up to there and we had slightly better weather on Thursday for the run to Mallaig and back to Mossend Depot, near Motherwell. Shame the taxi took nearly an hour to pick us up!

Then yesterday 7:30 off the hotel and working back to Crewe. Then passenger back home, getting back at 9ish.

When I got off the train at Crewe LNWR depot at 17:30 yesterday evening, I realised I'd been on the train continually since boarding at Mossend Depot at 07:45!!
