In fact an oil lamp bracket. The bracket is on the footbridge at Danzey station and dates from GWR days when the station had no gas or electricity and the only lighting was from Tilley lamps.
The train approaching is the 172332 with the 11.56 Stourbridge Junction to Stratford-upon-Avon service.
This was my last pre-lockdown picture.

150274 rolls into Blackpool North station with 2N97, the 1720 from Manchester Victoria.
The sole surviving signal box in Blackpool, the 1896, Lancashire and Yorkshire-built Blackpool North No.2 stands on the left of the frame.
Spotted these cool looking fungi growing up the trunk of a tree in a wooded area of the lake. They were above my head. I flipped the photos to get a better look. They remind me a bit of stacks of french toast.

Growing on the surface of a decaying downed tree lying on the forest floor in Warren Woods State Park, Chikaming Township, Berrien County, Michigan.
At last a chance to get out with my camera for a few hours! Between storms and commitments, I have not been able to be out and about for a few weeks. So it was with relish that I set off the capture some early morning shots around the docks of Belfast.

Pléchatel : falaise de schiste taillée pour permettre la méditation. Elle fut taillé au 19ième siècle par le curé de Pléchatel pour donner du travail aux gens.
These bracket fungi growing on an old willow stump beside the river were a bit old and manky, but still seemed to hold a certain charm.
Birch Bracket Fungus / piptoporus betulinus. Morley, Derbyshire. 07/10/20.
'TOPSIDE.'
A very impressive fungus I found in early October growing out from a dead Silver Birch trunk. Not quite the largest I've ever come across (width of about 24cms), but certainly one of the most attractive with that thick, rounded, undulating margin.
4053 was built in June 1914 as a G. J. Churchward designed Star class 4-6-0, she had obviously been to Swindon since 1948 because she has the cycling lion B.R. emblem and the paintwork looks in good condition. None the less Princess Alexandra was withdrawn in July 1954 and cut shortly after at Swindon works.
In this picture she is at Solihull, platform 1, probably with a London express, she has a full tender but given she was allocated to Wolverhampton Stafford Road that is unsurprising, the driver looks relaxed as he looks back down the train for the right away.
In front of the loco is the plate bridgework where Blossomfield Road passes under the railway, the spire of St Alphege church is growing neatly out of the smokebox. A rather fine wooden post bracket signal gives 4053 the right of way.

A rusty bracket fixed to the river wall below Tilbury B power station, with a slightly less rusty length of chain that I assume retained something which is no longer there, leading me to believe the bracket and chain, both, have failed in their (probably only) purpose.
Worse, the power station is no longer there, having served its purpose...
Unless it's an art installation ?

Blushing Bracket / daedaleopsis confragosa. Cloud Wood, Leicestershire. 14/03/20.
This is a very common bracket fungus, especially here in the East Midlands. It can be found all year round and old fruiting bodies can last in situ, for several years. I think they become more attractive as they age, because the once pale upper surfaces turn orange then rich reddish-brown tones in old age.
