A few photos from my unnecessary changeover at Winchester, on my recent visit to Eastleigh. I should have just got off at Southampton Airport Parkway instead!

A few images of Southampton Airport Parkway train station, from my visit to see David and Karen a few weeks ago.
I always forget that Southampton Airport Parkway is a much better connected way of visiting Eastleigh by rail, than Eastleigh station itself.

No coffee till Reading.
Quick changeover at Birmingham International on outward leg of trip to Eastleigh.
Looking across the platforms at Birmingham International station on my way down to the South coast.

Leaving Burnley for the day to catch up with a friend.
The 04:30 start was tough. I suspect my hour on Zwift at 23:45 to maintain my training streak will be tougher still.
Manchester Piccadilly.

Arriving back at Preston Station last night after a week working away in London. Found it quite disorienting arriving on platform 4/5, and further down the platform.

Waiting for the 07:21 train into Leeds from Burnley Manchester Road this morning.
I’d lived in Burnley for almost 5 years before I realised I could actually get a direct train into Leeds.
