@adipullenLNER Indeed the vegetation has changed. Almost impossible to get a shot at that location now

No problems giving way to blue lights - but overtaking on double white lines and approaching the brow of a hill is dangerous. Someone needs a refresher on driving skills - A337 approachng Lyndhust 17.10 04.02 @lymingtoncops

@CrippsSway In my case, and a few years ago, a Police officer in a marked car

Flying Scotsman has been working 5 days of service trains @swanrailway and will now be on static exhibition at Swanage until 6th November. If you have ever wanted to sit in the driver's seat now is the time .....:-)

A337 Gosport Lane closed in Lyndhurst for resurfacing - ALL traffic diverted via Beaulieu. Long diversion on forest roads with animals. Why no warnings before you get to Lyndhurst #romanse #hantshighways

The impact of world events in the New Forest - the overpressure wave from the Tonga volcanic eruption detected by the weather station in Sway at 19.15 UTC on Saturday 15th January.
The eruption took place near Tonga, South Pacific at 04:15 UTC and was heard 500 miles away

@CrippsSway Perhaps bringing into line with the changes to the Treason Act in 1702 is a good idea - allowing the accused a defence!

Sometimes you realise just how fast these young deer can run - this was a steady 25mph near Furzebrook in Dorset

The wing walkers display at Bournemouth today (4th September) just before the incident in which the white Stearman ditched into the sea near Sandbanks. Thankfully both pilot and wing walker are safe. #bournemouthairfestival

@thehistoryguy Ah - looks like Phoenix out of Charlestown.

[Peter Milford @petermilford]

@kmbrlybtrz Absolutely. Driver went to wrong address and then impossible to contact local@office or driver. Redelivered and driver said they were often getting complaints. Need to improve and enhance contact details

Eddystone has landed! Did you see it pass through Swanage & Corfe Castle by road?

After loading at Herston Works, it was delivered to Norden & paired with its tender, then taken to Swanage for commissioning & running in trials before it can enter public service.

At long last, passenger services have returned to the Swanage Railway after Covid restrictions were relaxed on 12th April. Trains now run everyday. @swanrailway #swanrailway

@stevebulleyUK Spot on!

[Peter Milford @petermilford]

@SwanageNick And we want a 1953 railway with 2020 levels of safety. Umm, don’t think we would get that passed .....
