Carnforth...Yeah it depends on what you prefer, I like seeing trains speed through stations at fast speeds (125mph if possible) and there are plenty of options for that

From 2019: https://www.railforums.co.uk/thread...local-strange-neighbours.185016/#post-4093854It's been a while since I went (November 2022 if I remember it correctly) but I didn't encounter anyone like that.
Aller Junction too?Taunton, 1962 (or before), summer Saturdays ...
I think he’s moved to Altnabreac!Has the obnoxious home owner moved or given up his aggression? I gather he didn’t like people using the station other than for (quietly) catching trains.
Fulda in central Germany, an hour north east of Frankfurt.Overseas:
Olten (CH)
Koblenz (DE)
Villeneuve-St-Georges (FR)
Salzburg (AT)
1:how long did that take to send?!My list (These may've been mentioned):
Liverpool Street (Walk through, move on)
Bethnal Green (Good for spotting trains on the hill out of Liverpool Street)
South Kenton (Bowling is an issue but can be great if you get lucky)
Harrow and Wealdstone (I used to used use this more but I have more switched to South Kenton, more hospitable though for long periods (like needing food))
Crewe (Variety, Great shots from the end of the long platform with passing trains)
Doncaster (A lot of interesting things)
Liverpool (Lime St and Central/Moorfield/James Steet) - Nice stations to spot Merseyrail (All but Lime St) and NR.
King's Cross/St. Pancras (Better for walking through)
Brent Cross West (My main Spotting Location for the MML, although slightlly annoying pinning unit numbers down with RTT as BCZ is not listed on EMR services)
Stratford (Good freight, great spots from county end of 10a)
Clapham Junction (I feel like this is obvious )
York (A lot to spot)
Queenstown road (Good for spotting SWR at Speed
Rugby (Nice for spotting High Speed services)
Glasgow Central/Queen St (See STP/KGX)
Partick (Great for spotting ex-BR OLE electrics)
New Street (Good diesel variety)
Man Pic. (All the stock)
Cardiff central (Good for a lot of welsh stock)
There is definately a lot more than that, I'm still looking for more, feel free to add to my list and I'll update it with suggestions
International or just Stratford?Stratford
just StratfordInternational or just Stratford?
Or both.
Keighley, you get modern and heritage, take your pick.
1. 10-20 mins, I’m making a list of spotting places, so this thread is going to come in handy1:how long did that take to send?!
2:i agree
If you're doing photos, though, platform 15? The other long one in the far side of your picture; from that one the sun will be behind you instead of in front of you.I think the top of Platform 2/3 at Euston is worth mentioning here.
Further up than all the other platforms (except platform 1) and great views of trains as they enter/leave (can get a bit loud).

Most of the times I've been there it's been too cloudy to notice.If you're doing photos, though, platform 15? The other long one in the far side of your picture; from that one the sun will be behind you instead of in front of you.

I've never had any problems trying to train spot at Euston, although I do admit the number of times is about 5, spread over 3 years.Dont the staff not like trainsporters alot?
