Let me share with you my favourite of the rare, early ‘Ladybird Series’ books. 🧵 It was published in around 1930 but the illustrations look much older. [1/7] (Artist: R James Williams)
Anyone know why the Salzburg - Munich railway is currently lined with photographers? Or a good website listing German railtours?

@andrew_grantham @Pillandia In some places there is a little bit more, like this bizarre ‘Drive on the left’ sign on a tiny lane on the Fermanagh/Donegal border.
Not what you immediately expect to find on a country lane, but this is the border. I suppose it wasn’t the Republic’s problem what side of the road you were driving on over in Fermanagh. And are wrong-side driving Germans a particular issue here? #GoWest

@andrew_grantham That stair turret is a secondary insertion that partially blocks the 14th century hall window. It is likely part of the mid-15th century remodelling which spans c 1430-77. The risers and treads are, of course, later. Its a grand old place 🙂

Also, the phrase ‘no standard toilets’ is incomprehensible to most people, half of whom will think there are only toilets for first class passengers (even on a standard-class only railway like this one!). Go with ‘Reduced toilet facilities. Accessible toilet available’, FGS.
Never a more perfect picture of Britain’s railways. Obsessed with twee - “hahaha London St Pancake, hope you get the joke and it’s not your first time here hahaha” - alongside the reality. Late trains, and warnings that there problems with basics like toilets. #StPancake
