028 - Railway stations are about journeys - places to say farewell, or welcome home. Today, for me it was a welcome home. Here a Liverpool to Scarborough train brought my daughter on the final leg of her journey from Geneva, for a few days at home over Easter. So today, for me the station was a very happy place to be.
I used to use that very train a lot, it was always such a little draughty train so it wasn't a very comfortable journey, but it was lovely being met by my Dad too!
The trains have improved a bit recently, and are faster than they used to be. It's been quite a handy service across the Pennines over the last 3 years, since visiting either of my daughters has involved a journey via Manchester.
It's not really a joke - there really are dozens of colour schemes on the trains here! Ant there are even some with personalised liveries (see http://365project.org/if1/365/2012-06-08)
