Thursday, 30 October 2014. Ghost sign at Chester station. I posted a photo of an old sign at Chester railway station and today's post is another from the same place. One of my interests (one of many! Is what are known as 'Ghost' signs, typically they tend to be painted onto brick or stone walls and over the years have weathered to varying degrees of illegibility. Ghost' sign at Chester railway station, 30/6/14. More of my 'ghost' sign photos can be found on Flickr. Monday, 27 October 2014. Ffestiniog Rai...

Monday, 29 December 2014. Signalbox Safari - Lincoln. A pre-Christmas trip to Lincoln by train gave me the opportunity to snap a couple more signalboxes for my collection. High Street signalbox, Lincoln, 22/12/14. High Street box is a brick-built Great Northern Railway type 1 structure dating from 1874 that stands by the level crossing at the west end of Lincoln Central station. Disused since Network Rail's resignalling of the area in 2007-2008 the box is now a listed building. Wednesday, 24 December 2014.

Rudderless Railway Ramblings: September 2014
http://rudderlessrailwayramblings.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 16 September 2014. A South-western Ramble, part 2 - Now thats more like it! You may remember that last year. I photographed the First Great Western. Night Riviera' service as it passed through Exeter St Davids on its way to London Paddington. Last year 57602 Restormel Castle was in charge of the train, wearing the First Group dark blue livery that I thought was applied to all of FGW's locomotives and HST power cars…. So I was pleasantly surprised when this turned up! Friday, 5 September 2014.

http://rudderlessrailwayramblings.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html
Thursday, 26 June 2014. I was only… 85 miles from Holyhead. To the 'Twenty-Four Hours from Tulsa' tune obviously…). Sign at Chester station showing distances to London and Holyhead, 25/6/14. This sign hangs on the wall between platforms 3 and 4 at Chester station, now orange in colour I suspect that it was once painted London Midland Region maroon and over the years the weather has taken its toll…. The dead bird will probably be there for a while too…). Monday, 16 June 2014. BEATRICE came to Embsay from ...

The railway modelling musings of a self-confessed 'rubber-gauger'. Wednesday, 2 November 2016. Project no.1 - Black Dog Mining Co Mite. This will hopefully become the first loco for an O-9 (7mm scale, 9mm gauge) layout that's currently in the planning stages.

And I've had this example on the shelf for a year or two….
