The inclusion of this photo is a bit off-topic seeing as there’s no plans to get rid of the Scanias... YET. Knowing my luck, now I’ve said this Stagecoach will announce the great Scania cull tomorrow.
Anyway, this made the cut purely because it’s the only photo I’ve got showing the short version of the 56 from Lincoln to Wragby. I’m not sure if the timetable is the same now as it was last summer, but it only ran once a day, in the morning many hours before I’d usually be free to do bus spotting (hence why I’ve only seen it once.)

I stopped by the Amtrak station to pick up a train and bus schedule for this assignment.
The Charity movement is wonderful picking up so much that the State once did. This Charity is one which I do support because of the wonderful work they do.
The title came to me as I took the picture because none of us will dodge the end. Fortunately for me I know life does not end as we die having experienced death as a child. Fortunately, the medical team in the operation managed to get me going again. Without going into too many details, to this day I can clearly remember looking down over the lights in the operating room at an age one does not normally remember things. I was experiencing no pain or fear but just looked down. The operation was successful, but it is a miracle that I am still here.
This photography is vehicle to tell of my experiences and this picture bought it back into my mind. It does not matter in the least if you do not believe me, but the picture did provoke these memories again whether real or fantasy.
GOD BLESS THE NHS
I recently bought a new, larger bookcase to house my collection of All-Line timetables dating back to 1974. Placing them in the new bookcase, I couldn’t but help notice the traditional old-fashioned covers, which depicted the latest motive power, unlike the later versions, which avoided pictures of trains. The May 1977 edition proudly celebrates the introduction of the full high-speed timetable on the Western Region. Now that HSTs are finally being replaced by the IEP trains, it seems appropriate to share this memento from yesteryear.

The old fella is looking through a magnifying glass at the country timetable at Central. Traveller or trainspotter? Reminds me of an Ealing film from the '50s.
First West of England WsM based 30012 YK25 OJB is seen approaching WsM interchange working an X1 towards Searle Cresent, wearing the press adverts from a previous showing to WECA.
This picture is taken in Liverpool Street Station, London. I have converted to B&W with the exception of the digital time table

Writing things down can certainly clear your mind and let you see things in a different, clearer way. Digital notes could never do the same for me what writing things down does!

37196 named Tre Pol and Pen comes slowly under the road bridge with china clay hoods on 21-7-86
Coombe Junction Halt railway station serves the villages of Coombe and Lamellion near Liskeard.
The term "halt" was finally removed from British Rail timetables and station signs and other official documents by 1974: the return of the term came only for two stations in 2008. Coombe Junction was not termed "halt" until 2008.
In 2015 the halt was recorded as the second-least used station in Great Britain, behind Shippea Hill. Passenger trains have to reverse at Coombe Junction, but most do so without entering the station. The line continuing beyond the platform is used only for freight trains to the cement terminal at Moorswater, which lies just beyond the Moorswater Viaduct.
When this picture was taken china clay trains were the only regular traffic under this bridge. You can just see part of Moorswater viaduct immediately above the bridge
37196 has faired no better than the china clay hoods withdrawn on 30-9-08 and disposed of 7-5-09 to C F Booth, Rotherham
A large proportion of the First Aberdeen fleet are now temporarily out of use due to the reduced pandemic timetable now effect.
All double deckers, artics, B10BLEs, and the majority of B7RLEs are now out of use plus 63213 and 67090 which were out pre virus presumably awaiting parts.
The out of service fleet is parked around the sides of the depot as seen here allowing space for the active fleet. Note 38206 had only just received this mega rear for CALA Homes prior to coming off fleet.
Presumably surplus to requirements with work on the Cornish mainline in progress,43162/027 were deployed on a diagram between Worcester and Bristol. The 11.49 Worcester Foregate Street to Bristol Temple Meads enters Worcester Shrub Hill. The Castle would only go as far as Gloucester. Later in the day it is due to work to Great Malvern from Bristol and back. It is expected that from the December timetable change,the Castle sets will be concentrated west of Plymouth.
On the 20th april 2019 Class 47/4 no.47851 passes Ings with the 2Z06 1206 Windermere to Oxenholme Lake District.
Loco hauled shuttle services were provided to support replacement bus services whilst the West Coast Mainline was closed for engineering. The services proved to be very popular with standing roon only on some services on a lovely Easter weekend.

TM Travel Optare Solo M950 YJ57EHB (1193) see as it heads past Poolsbrook Country Park whilst operating the 12:10 81 from Bolsover to Markham Vale.
The 81 is the only bus service to run past TM's original base on Fan Road in Staveley during daytime from Monday to Saturday, the vehicle having done this a minute or two before being photographed. The route was first operated by TM as the 47 from the early 00s until passing to Doyles on contract in March 2011. It was renumbered 81 at this point, and returned to TM in October 2012. An hourly service has generally been the way of it, however the timetable introduced last September includes a late morning/midday break in this pattern to in theory enable the service to be worked by a single vehicle and driver with a break.
The vehicle was new to the-then independent TM in October 2007 for the erstwhile Sheffield FreeBee. Solos were quickly proven too small for this service, and the vehicle was thus redeployed onto general service work in Travel South Yorkshire base colours. It was one of two to receive a repaint into yellow base colours with branding for Rotherham to Meadowhall service 31 in July 2014, although the second vehicle did not last too long in this livery. The 31 was withdrawn in March 2019, and, in a move typical of TM, the vehicle was debranded and left to run around with a scruffy external appearance. Whether the term incongruous would be applicable is debatable as, by my reckoning, there are 14 different colour schemes in the TM fleet at present which isn't bad going considering that they operate fewer than 40 vehicles now.

The Official TCDD Passenger Guide, starting 8th November 1987.
Obtained upon request at Izmir Alsancak May 1988, believed not generally available and possibly low circulation.
Displayed together with a professional handprint of Isparta from 1986 and a selection of tickets from the 1988 visit.
A train guard at Burdur Gar seemed somewhat surprised seeing the timetable in my possession and quickly flicked through to a particular page, I believe to check if it matched his information!
Magic days of travel in Turkey.
Right on time, the westbound Pennsylvanian cruises around the curve at Gap, PA, on Amtrak's Keystone Corridor.
You can't hardly hear a train coming until it's on top of you here, so it's time to look at the timetable & do a little math...
Abellio ScotRail Class 365, 365525 & Class 385, 385107 at Camelon railway station working 2P42 & 2P47 Edinburgh Waverley - Dunblane and vice versa services on the 9th of December 2018
The electric trains for this new timetable have now replaced the Class 158 & 170 diesel units that were previous used on these services
Do you remember Greater Manchester Transport Bus Guides? They were introduced to replace complete timetables, and the concept survives to this day with TfGM's service leaflets. Bus guides, covering one or more similar bus routes, were a feature of teh information rack in every bus station in Greater Manchester, and featured the timetable; usually a map of the route with points of interest; and quite often, if there was a spare page, an advert for a GMT service or similar public announcement, The Museum of Transport was often featured! You could also get small ring binders tio collect your bus guides in, and they were ready pre-holed tio fit the binder. Many a collector's cupboard had in it at least one Bus Guide binder with the full set of local Greater Manchester Transport Services in it.
This bus is advertising Bus Guides - which seems a little odd as they were free! But GMT was a public service, and promoting travel included making it easy for the public to know when and where buses were available. And of course this was long before the internet and online information available with the click of a mouse.
The bus is a Daimler 'Fleetline' with separate entrance and exit doors. A batch was bought by SELNEC in line with thinking that boarding at busy stops would be faster with a separate exit, so boarders did not have to wait for people to alight. But at most stops the time saving was slight, and the cost and safety disadvantages outweighed the benefit - so unlike in London, where the layout is still used, Greater Manchester's buses now have just one combinedentrance/exit door.

First Aberdeen have registered short notice changes to service 20 from tomorrow that see the Balnagask bound buses avoid Union St and instead return to Union Terrace. It is rare for a service to change with only a few days notice but the operator has evidently convinced the traffic commissioner that the service punctuality is being impacted by the congestion within the city centre. As well as changing the route there is a revised timetable with reduced running time southbound and increased running time in return northbound with layover time reduced. 63213 seen here on the last day of the Union St 20 for Balnagask.
Meanwhile Stagecoach Bluebird have announced consutation to proposed service changes that would see the withdrawal of the 62 Sunday service, 53607 seen here obliging on a Sunday 62A.
