Review of 2025 (1) : Q1

As 2025 is drawing to a close it is time to take a look back at the railway adventures and trips of the year. Of course, there were many and full coverage can be found on my website.

In January i started my trips with one to Alderley Edge. This was followed by a sub-zero canal walk in Apsley! The trip to Yate in Gloucestershire was next, only slightly warmer! Finally, in January i began my updates of West Midlands railway station photography (ready for my third book) with a trip around the Walsall area.

February began with a nearly failed trip to Grantham where i only had time to visit the station, i never did get around to going back so i could visit Grantham itself, maybe in 2026. The trip to Charlbury the week after was much more successful. I've wanted to visit Runcorn for some time and walk across the Silver Jubilee Bridge to Widnes, i was able to both this month. Finally, i updated my station photography along the Coventry line.

I really want to visit Wales more, in March i visited Caldicot though i only managed to cross the border once more in 2025. Wellingborough was next, this meant i had visited all of the Northamptonshire railway stations (not the hardest of tasks to be honest). Then came my first trip to London this year as i explored the northern end of the Piccadilly Line. I visited Yorton in Shropshire next, which was a big contrast from the capital. Finally, i visited some stations along the Snow Hill lines.
