The old Platform 11 at Stratford station, in 1989, with the overgrown remains of Platforms 12 and 13 on the left, which were once used by steam services to Hertford East:

The rusted tracks look as if they have not been used very often, and there are weeds growing on the platform...
This platform was restored - with a new 'Platform 12' - in the early-1990s, and today (2025) the station - and the surrounding area - has been completely rebuilt and modernised (since 2012), but this platform still exists, and has been extended... The sidings on the left have gone, and there is a multi-storey car park next to the platforms here....
Restored from a faded grainy unfocussed orange-colour-shifted original negative..

A rare sight in India, a deserted platform, early in the morning at the Gorakhpur Station. I was sent to the wrong line and missed my train to Shravasti on the narrow gauge but still managed to get to the meditation course for Christmas and New Years. On the way to the course I was riding in a van propelled by a propane tank. Efficient if the tank doesn't get too cold which of course it did. We had to stop every once in a while to warm it up. We even roasted it over an open fire at one point! That's right, a pressurized propane tank over an open fire. I wish I had pictures of that!

Direct Rail Services Class 68 68008 "Avenger" waits at Birmingham Moor Street with either the 16:28 1H62 to London Marylebone.
Heels are bent on these platform boots. The heel caps and soles wore away too. Just plastic left and they they are a bit slippery walking on all plastic bottoms.
Spotters ready themselves for the arrival of the 'Mid Scot Explorer', due in at this platform after the 1E73 17:45 Cardiff Central-Leeds train has left.
37002 is probably on the 3E16 18.50 Birmingham Curzon Street PCD to Peterborough, substituting for what would usually be a class 31 turn. There is a slim chance it was the 3E03 14.25 Plymouth to York Premium Parcels due into New Street at 19.39 and away at 20.08, but this would usually be a type 4 loco from the WR or MR, not a Thornaby class 37.
Summer 1982.
Thanks to Nigel Antolic from the class 47 fund who id'd the class 47 and working, and 'Marra Man' for the parcels trains details.

20th Feb 2011, visiting from the Severn valley railway 46443 was used as one of the locos on a night shoot at Bury. Glad I shot in Raw back then, sometimes
My new platform Converse. The tights in this pic are actually more bluer in natural light, although in this pic they look a deep purple.
RFA Stirling Castle is a ship of the Royal Fleet Auxiliary operated by the Ministry of Defence. Acquired in 2023, the ship entered drydock at HMNB Devonport for modification into a trials platform for autonomous minehunting systems that are to operate from a larger mother ship. The ship was formerly named MV Island Crown, and used as an offshore supply vessel operated by Island Offshore.
Owing to the UK's government's growing concern about protecting subsea infrastructure, and the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, the Island Crown was purchased by the UK's Ministry of Defence in February 2023 to be converted into a platform for mine countermeasure operations, to be operated by the Royal Fleet Auxiliary and have pennant number M01
