A splenetic press release reaches Railway Eye from campaign group TrainSardine. They write: " Angry passengers have launched a fight back campaign against East Midlands Trains by sending tinned sardines to rail boss Tim Shoveller. The campaign is in protest at the poor service provided on the troubled Liverpool to Norwich line. " Alas, such is the campaign group's ire that they manage to misspell the...

Bakewell is the only town in the Peak District National Park. It's situated on the River Wye in Derbyshire (not to be confused with the River Wye which starts in Wales and flows into the River Severn or the River Wye which starts in Buckinghamshire and flows into the River Thames). It's a lovely town and a useful centre to explore Chatsworth House, Haddon Hall and the delightful South Peak area. No...

This may look like a photo of me behaving more bizarrely than usual, however, it does have some meaning. The pic was taken on a recent visit to Eyam (pronounced Eem) which is high up in the Peak District in Derbyshire, and is actually closer to Sheffield than Derby.

I pinched this picture from Richards Blog , a blog centred on the National Tramways Museum at Crich, Derbyshire. I can remember the time these beasts roamed Edinburgh's streets, rattling and shaking and terrifying me at the time. I always hated the things but there were times they just had to be used.
