I am posting from the 11:19 Brighton to London express

Is it not stopping at Croydon, or Gatwick?

Tomorrow, I get to use the Stansted Exopress, which will complete the set - Stansted Express, Gatwick Exprsess  Heathrow Express. Obviously, the Heathrow Eprsess is far & away the best - operates on purpose-built lines, on the GWR, & runs into the cathedral that is Paddington - it don't get better than that.

It does stop at Croydon and Clapham but it its still called the Brighton express.

Ahh, Clapham Junction, "Britain's busiest Railway Station". Fascinating place.

Twice a week. I get the Waterloo-Feltham stopper when going to Sky at Feltham, & often jump off at Clapham Junction just to soak up the atmo for an hour or so. Magic moments, not to be missed.

Steam Locos are no good without a Railway on which to run. Think Brunel.

Germany was first to invent the structure which a train runs on but here's something that might cheer you up. I believe you are from this neck of the woods:-
"The Wollaton Wagonway is the earliest, proven, surface railway. It is recorded as running from Strelley to Wollaton near Nottingham and was completed in 1604".

We own the Colons, never forget that. And the swans.

Yes you definately do own the colons you talk through all the time! Cant argue with that!
