First time visiting a railway station in 2021. Only to meet a friend off a train (hello Mark T), which happened to be the Class 91 – 91111 For The Fallen. Going on my first train trip of 2021, on Bank Holiday Monday! Which I am so looking forward too.

Here is mini list my dream railway rolling stock for Coopers Junction. What do you think?!?!?
At long last, I got a good photo of the Class 91 (#91119) in the ‘Swallow’ livery! Really going to miss these locomotives, when they all come off the ECML by the middle of next year.
Happy 140th birthday to Glasgow Central railway station. Which was opened by the Caledonian Railway on 1 August 1879.
It had under 33 million passengers in 2017–18, making Glasgow Central the twelfth-busiest railway station in Britain and the busiest in Scotland!

Farewell 91108 after seven million six hundred thousand miles on the clock. You will be very much missed!

Yes, I did tick off London King’s Cross railway station, a long time ago! Way back in 30th November 2002 in fact. But like more others, I always head straight to underground and head into the centre of London. But not this time, for once I walked the other way and went to end of the platforms to get some photos…

Here is something that you don’t often see and that’s a LNER Class 91 double-header! Well it’s a first for me anyway!
Since I was waiting for Mark T to get to Grantham railway station, it was time to take some more photos! Going to really miss, seeing the InterCity 125 trains, when they start being removed from the EMCL. So better get photos of them, while I can!
