Reviving Passenger Rail in New Zealand - A Quick Start Guide: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1pcMToZeIZ0TWeIGZk5LFN47rGr1Frewa/view [20 page PDF alert, Google Drive link] This is a wonderfully aspirational document of what the NZ rail network could be, with most proposals easily achievable in a short time frame (3-5 years) and at minimal cost. Hopefully it can serve as a template for an incoming government who are actually interested in rail. #NZPol #NZ #NewZealand #Railways #Railroads #GreensNZ #GreenParty #TheFutureIsRail

🇫🇷 Bonjour! Ambiance matinale, samedi dernier, en gare de Remagen. Dans le fond sur les hauteurs, l'église St. Apollinaire qui est un lieu de pèlerinage qui lui-même est la cause du marché qui se tenait dimanche! Pour ma part, ce sera dans le train pour la plupart de cette journée. 😉 Passez une aussi belle journée que possible. 👋 🙂 🇬🇧 Good morning! Morning atmosphere, last Saturday, at Remagenrailway station.

🇫🇷 Bonjour! Le 23 juillet 1926, la loi créant la SNCB/NMBS était votée, cela fait juste cent ans aujourd'hui! Bon anniversaire à celle qui fut mon gagne-pain durant de longues années et comme dans toute relation, c'était pour le meilleur et parfois aussi pour le pire! 😉 Passez une bonne journée! 👋 🇬🇧 Good morning! On July 23, 1926, the law creating SNCB/NMBS was passed, it's just a hundred years ago today! Happy birthday to the one who was my livelihood for many years and as in any relationship, it was for better and sometimes also for worse! 😉 Have a great day! 👋 #railways #Spoorwegen #CheminsDeFer #Eisenbahn #railwayphotography #trains

UK Train Nerd post I see that Grand Central are putting a proposal to the Rail regulators for a St Pancras to Manchester service. It's planned to call at Luton Airport, Wellingborough, Leicester and Stockport. This is pretty much a revival of the Project Rio service that got my son into his railway career. It stands a near zero chance of getting approved*, but it'd be a fantastic route for the East Midlands. *Almost no paths south of Bedford and no platform space at St Pancras. And, it'd lose money hand over fist! #Railways

An excellent post by @cocteautriplets@mastodon.scot on the troubled history of Leith Central station. I had no idea the Central bar predated the station - I'd always assumed it had been the station's bar! As a student some friends and I explored a bit of the station one afternoon in 1984... (I remember nothing except that I went there!) #Leith #Edinburgh #railways https://threadinburgh.scot/2026/07/03/the-station-nobody-wanted-the-thread-about-leith-central/

First time alighting at Cambridge South station today. Biggest change to my commute in 15 years 😀. Very new, very shiny. Flexi season ticket did let me through the barrier. #Trains #Railways #Cambridge

🇫🇷 Prêt pour entamer une nouvelle semaine? Elle s'annonce moins chaude, et sera sans doute plus propice à une rando! Le 26 juin 2016, j'attendais les voyageurs et l'heure de départ. Passez une bonne journée. 👋 🇬🇧 Ready to start a new week? Weather should not be so hot and probably more suitable for a hike! On June 26, 2016 I was waiting for passengers and departure time. Have a nice day. 👋 #1jour1souvenir #trains #railways #railwayPhotography #Eisenbahn #CheminsDeFer #Spoorwegen #Treinen #Züge

In industries where large groups of people travel daily - from #mining networks to #logistics hubs to ports, #railways and #manufacturing facilities - accurate load sizing outweighs demand.

🇫🇷 Je parlais ce matin de Belval au Grand-Duché de Luxembourg. Voici quelques photos ferroviaires à Belval-Usines (devenue Belval-Université) en juillet 2004. Bonne soirée. 👋 🇬🇧 I was talking this morning about Belval in Grand-Duchy of Luxembourg. Here are a few railway photos in Belval-Usines (now Belval-Univeristé) in July 2004.

🇫🇷 Quelques vues d'Ecosse lors du voyage en juin 2005 dans les Highlands à Kingussie.

Derrière ScotRail se cachent plusieurs opérateurs : jusqu'en 1997, c'était un des secteurs de British Rail, l'entreprise nationale des chemins de fer britanniques. Entre 1997 et 2004, c'est National Express qui était à la manoeuvre et à partir de 1994 jusqu'en 2022, c'était le groupe First qui opérait le franchise. Depuis 2022, ScotRail est de nouveau publique sous l'égide du gouvernement régional d'Ecosse.

  1. Un autorail Class 170 Turbostar toujours dans la livrée "National Express" arrive à Kingussie avec un train vers Inverness.

  2. En gare d'Aviemore, point de départ de la ligne historique du Strathspey Railway vers Broomhill, un couplage d'autorails Class 158 quitte la gare vers Inverness.

  3. En gare de Broomhill sur la ligne préservée.

  4. Manoeuvre de remise en tête de la machine à vapeur en gare de Broomhill sur le Strathspey Railway.

Bonne soirée. 🙂 👋

🇬🇧 Back in June 2005 for a few railway photos from Scotland during my trip to the Highlands in Kingussie.

Several railway operators are hiding behind the brand ScotRail. Until 1997, it was a sector of British Rail, the national company in the UK, from 1997 to 2004 National Express won the franchise for ScotRail, from 2005 to 2022, it was then First that was operating ScotRail services. Since 2022, ScotRail is in public hands again.

  1. A DMU Class 170 Turbostar in National Express livery is arriving in Kingussie with a train to Inverness.

  2. Two DMUs Class 158 are leaving Aviemore towards Inverness.

  3. The station of Broomhill at the end of the preserved Strathspey Railway.

  4. The steam locomotive is shunting to the other side of the train to go back to Aviemore.

Have a nice evening. 👋 🙂
