cars famously make places "tranquil"

A ScotRail class 385 passes through Princes Street Gardens with the Scottish National Gallery in the background. You can just about make out a class 158 and 170 combo hidden behind an overhead wire mast

A ScotRail Inter7city HST passing through Princes Street Gardens, you can just see the Scott Monument in the background, and a few cranes

greatest city in the world

quite impressive that the 13, now privately operated on behalf of the council, appears to be virtually unchanged

honestly my take is they should just fund the Edinburgh Airport Rail Link as originally planned, means you've got a direct train to every city in the country

I LOVE CURLING

A lumo class 803 pulls into platform 2 at Edinburgh Waverley

A lumo class 803 sits at Glasgow Queen Street

finally used lumo for the first time, albeit only for a return journey to Glasgow

A British class 800 Azuma at Edinburgh Waverley

i mean, Hitachi *can* build trains, but on the other hand...

yeah the Scottish Government is doing a lot of electrification (but also delayed the ordering of new trains so the current EMU fleet is not enough, about a quarter of East Kilbride trains are still diesel)

A greenbat mail rail train in Royal Mail red livery

A Commer Post Bus

A weird five wheeled cycle thing

The green mail rail train at Mount Pleasant station

i realise i've barely said anything this year, have an assortment of postal vehicles

not my problem :p

HACCP jumpscare

oh btw i now have a job

yes it's transport related, no i'm not telling you what it is

I think it's the since closed (and converted into a convention centre) Manchester Central station

A photo taken over a crowd at Waterloo next to a class 455

The inside of a class 455, the PIS reads "Farewell Class 455!!"

A class 455 at Dorking station with a headboard reading "Class 455 Farewell"

The same class 455, this time seen from the footbridge at Haslemere station

some random old train

ayyy congrats!

well that GBR livery is certainly a... thing

we used to be a country

A quote from the article "And Edinburgh World Heritage (EWH), which opposed the proposal to run trams along South Bridge, warning the structure built in the 1780s might not be able to stand the strain, also suggested alternative routes had to be considered."

please ignore the fact that trams have run along south bridge in the past

look i knew getting trans healthcare on the NHS wouldn't be easy but i didn't expect the difficulty to begin with simply trying to get written confirmation of being on the waiting list

the only train where my opinion of them gets worse every time i ride them

An Avanti class 390 Pendolino in platform 1 at London Euston

it's cool how post privatisation the UK made one good high speed train then decided to never do it again

i realise it's not as flashy as the Elizabeth line but the Victoria line continues to amaze me

happy birthday!!!

A class 158 at Aberdeen platform 6N

welcome back to Scotland's premier intercity service (not an HST because they're ancient and broke down)

Edinburgh Castle, seen from Hanover Street

not very

happy(?) 69 years of buses on the 23

the council really doesn't want to run the 13 to Lochend do they (given last time supported bus services were reviewed the 13 was going to get rerouted into Craigleith-Dumbiedykes)

what's the point of job applications that give a date but also say it may close early. why tell me a date if you're going to close two weeks in advance

An image in the style of Zohran Mamdani's campaign logo that says "Alight here for the bus and tram link to Edinburgh Airport"

no. bad.
