Another update finally hits the interweb thingy. I seem to be spending far too much time getting stuff prepared for and uploaded to my Fotopic sites, but a visit to Sheffield over Christmas has led to an update of the Sheffield Trams page, and the scanning of my old Blackpool tram photos is complete

It is now five years since the Carlisle floods wiped out the Stagecoach fleet and heralded a fantastic few months for the bus enthusiast, as buses from all over the Stagecoach empire descended on the city before the fleet of Darts arrived. The pages relating to theses periods are still on here, called Carlisle After the Rain  and Carlisle Now, with "now" referring to the last four years. The latter page is currently being worked on - coming soon (perhaps) to this website.

There is also a page depicting Isle of Man Transport buses in September 2005 and a section on Isle of Man electric railways is now online in the tramways section.  All the photos formerly on my websites have been removed, pending uploading to Fotopic. My Fotopic galleries are expanding slowly, divided into Buses and trams and Railways.

The background image is a photo of a one-time constant travelling companion of mine, Christmas G Panda, who was hand-knitted by a friend many years ago. He has now retired from his travelling activities due to fragility.

Mail me with your thoughts, comments, just to say hello, or confirm that I really am mad!

Home. Back to the Beginning.

Nostalgia for the 1980s? Taken in Caerphilly bus station in the late 1980s (I think) during the period when Rhymney Valley called itself InterValleyLink before succumbing to National Welsh, is bus bodied Leopard 62.
