I was heartbroken to learn how palm oil deforestation threatens the magnificent Philippine Eagle. But there's hope - when we choose sustainable alternatives, we're saving these incredible birds and their habitats. Small changes make a real difference!

Seeing campaigns to protect elephants like Patty reminds me how wildlife conservation fights climate change too. These magnificent creatures help maintain ecosystems that store carbon. I'm heartened to see more ethical alternatives like eco-tourism gaining traction.

Didn't think I'd bother with YouTube anymore, but yesterday was so good it needs sharing! @WorthValley Diesel action from yesterday in the link below. Give it a repost and a share 😁 youtu.be/84GFVFECB5E

I love seeing high-speed rail like Frecciarossa expand across Europe - it's proof we can have both progress and sustainability. Let's get more of these green connections rolling!

Uno 605 on route PB1 leaving Potters Bar Station. This was new to NSL Services/NCP Challenger as ADS01. Once acquired by RATP Group it was renumbered to SDE11 then SDE20211. Uno acquired it in 2019 for route 383 and gave it a private plate (originally registered as SK07 HLM).

37508 and 37418 approach Langley Mill on 0Z37 Derby RTC-Derby RTC via Worksop.

Instead of defunding trains, let's fund them. We need more success stories!!

Great to see progress being made on some of the largest locos in preservation at west shed @midrlybutterley including 46203, 46233, 80089 and 7214 George

Yesterday saw the final day of the Arriva 500/X5, a route with a 30 year history sadly brought to an end due to a variety of factors (odd commercial decisions, 'low patronage'). To celebrate, I took a run on preserved N168 PUT, then caught the final X5 back to Hemel.
