Thank you for your kind word. :)

Great exploration! It's good that the old BR western region brown enamel totem signs have been retained on the Looe platform.

Thank you! Platform 3 does definitely have a more traditional feel to it.

At least you can get a train to Liskeard . Pocklington area we're I am you have to rely on buses and there are more times when the a1079 is gridlocked with vehicles. There used to be a perfectly good rail line between York & hull until that psycho Beeching fkd it all up.

[@tadpole1969uk]

Yup. I live about 8 miles away and we lost our service thanks to Beeching. Nobody predicted that cars would become so prevalent. Bus companies will only run a decently frequent service if it makes them a decent profit.

A charming video of Liskeard station(s). Good information as well. Platform 3 Looe buildings are thankfully still standing and are in use etc. I’ve always wanted to travel to Looe on the railway from Liskeard, maybe this year I will. Just subscribed btw.

Thanks for your kind words. The Looe line is lovely, especially in the summer when the Sun is shining. Many thanks for the sub :)
