Catching the light, woman with cat, the Gorbals, Glasgow 1948 by Bert Hardy. He was a fearless and engaging photographer who could take photos anywhere. This is a particularly poignant image.

Looking through Network Rail internal reports as part of book research, I found an entry from 2018: “The female driver has stopped to report to both the signaller and BTP that there is a man stark naked at a window of a house, vigorously pleasuring himself.” www.chimewhistle.co.uk

The new Boogie Lights Express is proving to be very popular on the Severn Valley Railway, although one person (a teacher of all people) has had a moan on SM that it should be an adult only train. She's been told to catch a later train if she has a phobia about children.

Someone tried to board a moving train at Derby a couple of years ago. They fell between train and platform - losing a number of fingers in the process.

Indeed. I've stayed in Japan many times and the rail system, including some relatively rural lines, is fabulous.

Having stayed in Japan many times I've experienced many rural lines. These are just as interesting - allowing one an insight into communities and places far away from tourist spots.The lack of lineside fencing is also noticeable. A Station Master allowed me to walk along the line and adjacent depot.

Up there with "I'll see what I can do" which often translates as "I'm not going to do anything, but it stops you from pestering me". People who use it, must think the recipient is naive.
