A woman stands by a window stroking a cat
Catching the light, woman with cat, the Gorbals, Glasgow 1948 by Bert Hardy. He was a fearless and engaging photographer who could take photos anywhere. This is a particularly poignant image.
Looking through Network Rail internal reports as part of book research, I found an entry from 2018: “The female driver has stopped to report to both the signaller and BTP that there is a man stark naked at a window of a house, vigorously pleasuring himself.” www.chimewhistle.co.uk
Snowdon Mountain Railway doesn't rule out scrapping steam locomotives. See blog at www.chimewhistle.co.uk

Don't destroy their home and wonder why they invade yours. 💚
The new Boogie Lights Express is proving to be very popular on the Severn Valley Railway, although one person (a teacher of all people) has had a moan on SM that it should be an adult only train. She's been told to catch a later train if she has a phobia about children.
Well, a lowish key move to this platform and I’ve now 40 followers - so have a Class 40!
See that in some railway books. Page after page of close up 3/4 front views. Readers deserve better.

Someone tried to board a moving train at Derby a couple of years ago. They fell between train and platform - losing a number of fingers in the process.
Must be feeling flush.
Thank you so much to Phil and everyone else who’s supported the zine so far.
I have some stock left and if you’re near Whitley Bay (where these photos were taken), indie bookshop The Bound has some too.

Saucy!
