This badger was wandering around a field quite unconcerned in broad daylight, very unusual. Taken near the Wendover Arm Canal.

Hemel Hempstead depot's 6044 (LJ 04 LFW), a VDL DB250 Wright Gemini new to Arriva London as DW83 makes its way through Tring after a snowfall on 11th December 2017.
Hertfordshire GOC's 13 October 2012 walk, starting and ending at Tring railway station and following the Grand Union Canal around Tring Reservoirs. I used a setting on my camera that I don't normally use in the hope the pictures would be better, but I think the quality is down on my usual so I won't be using that setting again!
I took lots of photos on this walk so please check out the other photos in the set!
Leading 321415 on a London Midland commuter service to Euston, part of the small fleet of 7 Class 321s remaining on this line.
Not as old a building as you might think. The Market House, which houses Tring's council chamber and offices, was built by public subscription to mark Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee, and opened in 1901. Its timber framing, steep pitched roof and ornate chimneys (out of view) proclaim it to be another of William Huckvale's tudoresque creations, and a nice centre-piece for the Town. The ground floor, now occupied by a shop, was originally open - apparantly.
The Chiltern hills can be glimsed in the distance over Marsworth Reservoir, Tring. The Reservoirs were built in the early 19th Century to feed arms of the nearby Grand Union Canal, Tring is located at the summit of the canal. They are now designated a Site of Special Scientific Interest on account of their wealth of wildlife. Taken on a gloriously sunny lunchtime, just after I had bought the obligatory valentines flowers at the nearby supermarket!
Tring Coaches commenced trading in 1987 and came from Tring Gardens, Harold Hill, and not the Hertfordshire town of the same name. After two years, the one coach operator replaced the original Bedford with YNT Plaxton Supreme VI EFE 7X seen in Brighton in August, 1993 during a credible ten year stint in the fleet.

One of those scenes where I had to capture the bus in its surroundings rather than close up - both because it looks good and because I needed to get across and catch it !
MPD 3297 runs down Tring High St towards the Rose and Crown on the 61 to Luton.
This is a beautiful ride although spoilt by the bus being overcrowded.
The two other 61s we passed were deckers and this bus was branded for Aylesbury Rainbow Route 2, so I guess was a substitution, but really not big enough for the job.
We finally made it to College Lake. It was a beautiful day for a walk, but we decided to do the shorter loop to see how the going would be. Turned out shorter than we expected!
The paths had been reasonably quiet until we reached the Wendover Forestry car parking and visitor centre - then there were lots of people - I had to wait for the Gruffalo to be child free for this shot :-)
MK Metro Meredes Benz 709D minibus 84 (M884 DDS) had been transferred to Lutonian Buses shortly before this view on the Tring Town servce on 28th June, 2002. The bus had been new to Leven Valley Coaches, Great Ayton.

The Tring Regal in 1975 - long since closed and badly vandalised. It had opened in 1936 with 514 seats. Several closure and changes of ownership suggest it was not a profitable house and after a final brief spell as a live theatre called the Masque, it closed in 1966. It was demolished in the 1990's and flats built on the site.
