Redhill Platform Zero
(Part 2 of my occasional #Interrail trip series)
Walking from Paddington to #London Victoria Station, from there I went to Redhill. Since it was my first time in London, I was very amazed at how there were many stations the size of #Toronto Union Station.
A goal for some #railfan folks in the UK is to visit every platform zero as they are kind of a novelty. I wasn't looking out for them specifically, but you may see I will encounter one again in a future post.
Rode the newly opened Seattle's LINK LRT Line 2 last month.
Can't wait for the LINK to link with the other LINK next year so that I don't have to bus to Bellvue.

This one is interesting. The Abt system is only between two stations on a steep grade and a separate locomotive shunts with the train, not shown here.
The picture is of the beautiful and unique station that is located on top of the bridge.
I've ridden this one, and I would recommend earplugs if you have sensitive ears.
One of the better functioning streetcar routes in Toronto. The most iconic spot for the 501 King streetcar is under the Atlantic Ave. Rail bridge.
London Paddington Station
I did a cross EU/UK trip in May of 2022. Was taken aback by the sheer size and number of tracks at this station.
First of a series of photos I'll be posting occasionally!

During my #Seattle visit and rides that weekend, many of the #train drivers were good sports and enthusiastically sounded the bell for railfans and kids alike.
