The best thing I've travelled on this year has to be Hong Kong trams!

30th April:
11:16 Llanishen-Cardiff Central
11:50 Cardiff Central-Hereford
Watched Hereford v Bradford (last home game of the season - a 1-1 draw saw us secure league footbal for next season), then got a lift back to Cardiff - my parents are house hunting in Ledbury and needed somewhere to stay over the weekend!

Re: What was the last train you went on??
On holiday in Norfolk last week and we went on the North Norfolk Railway catching the 12:00noon from Holt to Sheringham travelling on the Waggon und Maschinenbau Diesel railbus E79960

and returning on the 1:30pm from Sheringham to Holt travelling on steam hauled coaches with GWR 56xx 0-6-2T 5619

Bought a good book from Sheringham Station "British railways First Generation DMUs" by Hugh Longworth which complements his book BR steam locos, plus an excellent video on East Anglian railways.
