Well, here we go again, another year... let's get out there and get any unbashed track marked off in our atlases!

This thread is laid and fettled ready to be used at linespeed from Monday.

17th of February, Settle to Carlisle Line all being well. Both ways.

Did it, but only Leeds to Carlisle thanks to the TPE sale (came back to Manchester via Preston)

Haymarket-Glasgow Central via Shotts (finally). This completes my travels of the routes between Glasgow and Edinburgh.

Liz Line: Abbey Wood - Woolwich

I deserved it after having to walk from Belvedere to Abbey Wood due to a total collapse of the service.

Sometime 50+ years Ago
In the early 1970's (1971, 1972 or 1973), my parents and I had a week's rover ticket for the Northwest, visiting (probably amongst other places) Blackpool, Southport, Llandudno and New Brighton. Until yesterday I hadn't realised that the current Merseyrail stock transfer line from Liverpool Central to James Street was the regular passenger route in the early seventies, and therefore I've covered it when a brat. Now duly highlighted in my atlas... o_O

Douglas Horse Tram completed in full.

It's in my Baker Atlas so in my view counts.
