No offence taken, Sandy. A number of ships started their journey well before the outbreak. I am glad I am not on P&O ship Arcadia at this moment. Since Fremantle (Perth, Australia) beginning of March, the ship has been denied entry to any of its scheduled ports. The last being Cape Town. At present ...

The postman is waiting for someone to answer his knock on the door. Two dogs with him wait patiently. In days gone a dog did not have t...

Glendinning, Shotley Bridge) was regularly seen in Leeds. Here he is about to talk to Foreman Tim Sullivan...

The early morning Kirkstall & East Seacroft Railway passenger train from Barnbow on its return to Kirkstall. Locomotive 'Titan' is in charge.

A K&ESR Goods train has clear way through Sovereign Street.

A 'troop train' from the north is passing the level crossing and heading south. A mix of different carriages from different Companies is evident. IMG_3573.JPG Same train passing Sovereign Street Station. IMG_3574.JPG Another 'troop train' heading south passing Crown Point. IMG_3576.JPG Glencairn
