Pavan on Trains

Poyntzpass ✅ Station 7 of 54 ✅ Least-used station in Northern Ireland ✅ It’s actually 4 trains a day in each direction! 1730 entries and exits in the 24/25 period, very much in the middle of nowhere, lovely signalbox here @nirailways

Sugar Loaf ✅ Station 1709 of 2587 ✅ For many years, Sugar Loaf was the least-used station in Wales but that’s now Roman Bridge. It’s still the remotest station in Wales and only one door opens here, I walked to Llanwrtyd which is a beautiful walk @tfwrail

I started ticking off stations on the Settle to Carlisle Railway today. It's a hell of a beautiful line. I'm so in love with this line. I even went to see the Ribblehead Viaduct as the sun was setting. So much charm with this line and lovely station buildings. @setcarrailway

Spotlight on Flimby station, a request stop on the Cumbrian Coast Line located between Maryport & Workington. Definitely one of Cumbria's most underrated stations and arguably one of Britain's most underrated stations. Not too far from my new home, direct trains. @northernassist

A @tfwrail Class 158 passes through Abererch request stop on 12 July without calling on the 2J07 1055 Machynlleth to Pwllheli with a two tone horn from the driver.

Biggest shocks in the 2020-21 ORR estimates of station usage figures which came out yesterday. A thread.
