A feast of tasty traction at the self-styled rural capital of food, Melton Mowbray, this morning.

37510 emits smoke as it passes Melton Mowbray signalbox, right, hauling 730230 from Old Dalby to Crewe.

66303 storms through Melton Mowbray station with an empty stone train from Wellingborough to Rylstone. The station pillars and roof frame the shot on the left and the station footbridge and wall to the right.

High speed train power cars 43468 and 43480 haul two barrier wagons from King's Norton to Old Dalby, framed by Melton Mowbray station's platform roofs and footbridge.

A medley of trains through Melton today, including a 170, a 66, a 69, a rail grinder and 37510 and 730230.

The latest in Leiston - 68001 and 016 on the 3.39pm Sizewell to Crewe nuclear flask train, plus a sign of progress at the old Leiston Works railway branch, nearby.

A blue diesel, hauling a white nuclear flask on a wagon, passes trees and emits a trail of smoke.

A loco parked at the old Leiston station, which is now a private house.

A fingerpost sign which points left to the King's Men stone circle and right to the Whispering Knights dolmen.

Acceptable in the '80s - and the 2020s. Crewe-built class 91 locos 130, 109 and 101 and their Inter City 225 sets continue to perform for @lner.co.uk at Leeds today.

A class 91 loco with red tail lights pushes the 1.15pm to London King's Cross out of Leeds station and its arched roofed train shed.

Class 91 109 with its headlines gleaming hauls the 2.03pm from London King's Cross into Leeds, with the driving van trailer at the rear of the nine coach train visible, due to the curving track.

Mark four driving van trailer 08 prepares to drive the 4.45pm to London King's Cross out of the station, with its headlights gleaming.

The first of the class 91 locos, 91 101 Flying Scotsman, hauls the 3.03pm from London King's Cross into the station and under the curving roof.

Walking along the Suffolk lanes, south of Halesworth.

A tree against the blue sky beside a lane.

A tree casts a shadow onto the side of an old brick cottage, under a blue sky.

A tree frames a blue sky with white clouds, illuminated by the sun.

Trees frame a view across rolling fields, towards a small wood.
