Thinking back to the summer and a memorable time in Reykjavik. Never did share many photos.

This came up on my Google memories. 2019 at Disney Animal Kingdom in Orlando. We are in row 2 but check out the woman in row 1 🤣🤣

Did someone say Bristol Harbour Railway? Watch out for my video of 5 Things About the Railway, dropping on Tuesday. Photo taken in 2016.

This still brings a smile to my face. Do we order online and they chuck some clippers over the fence the next day between 11:01 and 13:01?

Oh even better 😁 Oh the stunning views of the English countryside 😂😂😂

Off to London in my 'forward facing window seat'. In reality backwards and, well, what a view. GWR seat booking strikes again.

Going nowhere but this DMU could be on its way soon. Find and where and why on Tuesday as I drop an extra video into my channel.

Something for Cardiff people. Come and hear me talk about one of my favourite disused railway, the Cardiff Railway.

It is fair to say that this bridge in Bristol harbour won't be opened anytime soon. #knackered

Video coming Tuesday. What I did on my holidays - of course I found a train, but where and what did it do? Watch this space...

There is an app version that I use for posting to Bluesky, Threads and X when I launch videos. Works a treat.

Rail Relics are a common site on back roads in the South Wales valleys. This is Brecon and Merthyr bridge remains near Ystrad Mynach.

Bobs Rail Relics @bobsrailrelics.co.uk · 25/08/2026

Probably one of my favourite places to eat my lunch, the remains of Penrhos Viaduct north of Caerphilly. Once a massive intersection of four lines, today it's a footpath.

Welcome to all my new followers. I run a small YouTube channel looking at mainly railway based history from South Wales. I do jump out into other areas now and again, including the odd canal video. Find me at youtube.com/@bobsrailrel...

@showmeasign.online Here's a sign for you. Those sneaky waves!!

It would seem this video has gone viral. Normally I am happy when one gets past the 1k mark. This has just hit 10 thousand views! Seems everyone loves a tunnel

Currently being repaired, Avonside number 3 Portbury sits outside the shed on the Bristol Harbour Railway. A video about the line will be dropping later this year.

Frustrating trip to an abandoned railway trackbed today. Since I visited a year or so ago, it has disappeared completely to vegetation and is now totally impassible. A rewrite of the video is needed I feel! At least the ruins of this old trans shipment building is still intact.

Coming Tuesday June 30th. The past, present and future of a sealed off tunnel. The Rhondda Tunnel

Sometime cleaning images with AI works, however this is a spectacular fail. Two Islywn Borough Transport buses at Pontllanfriath. One going to Penlywn. It has decided to plant them firmly into Yorkshire! A better prompt may help, I'll see what I can write.

Looks like the line I rode on to Málaga a couple of weeks ago. Similar stock

Taken a number of years ago, 47714 in Rail Express Systems livery, pauses at the signal near Newport Road in Cardiff.

Distance signal remains in Rhondda Tunnel. The video is being created and will drop later this month.

To round off my birthday week headed out to Málaga for a few days. Rode a Spanish train and marvelled at a stunning city.

Bobs Rail Relics @bobsrailrelics.co.uk · 24/05/2026

Having braved a tunnel yesterday, today was a walk around Bristol Harbour and a ride on the Bristol Harbour Railway. Great little line.

Bobs Rail Relics @bobsrailrelics.co.uk · 23/05/2026

Did I avoid the sun today for a muddy tunnel visit? Yes. Was it amazing? Also yes. Rhondda Tunnel video will drop later this year.

Remains of the Brecon and Merthyr railway near Bedwas. It's a hike up to the trackbed a long way up above the tunnel.

On a wall at the side of a road in Bedwas, Caerphilly. No idea what this was but it is in an area where there was a massive coal mine.

So this space was taken up by @halcruttenden.bsky.social who did a full two hour set and made us laugh right through. Honestly if you can get to see him do so. Just don't wear a hoodie. Or orange.
