We found a contact sheet, with negatives, of some of my late Grandfather's photos. These are, I suspect, from the 1980s or early 1990s. Can anyone identify where this is?

A red narrow guage steam engine on a line in what looks like Wales. The steam engine has a brass dome and is very short. A red narrow guage steam engine on a line in what looks like Wales. The steam engine is pulling the train backwards over a bridge next to the sea. A red narrow guage steam engine on a line in what looks like Wales. The steam engine is facing forwards and is in a station. There is a building on the left. It is very steamy.

I'm entirely agnostic about the names given to the Overground lines in London. (I know some people have decided to whinge about them.)
However, #UKRailway, I'm not convinced that suffragettes can be replaced by buses.

On a GWR IEP to Paddington.
Just realised that all those neat little coat-hooks are practically useless.
Spaced as if the whole coach has table seating aligned with windows. But lots of airline seats😬
Use them and coat hangs down in your face - or behind you.
