What is it with buses and trains?



I am writing to clarify why it is that there are always buses and trains on my blog; this is a throwback to when I was very small and used to travel around London on my own, bus spotters book and note book in hand, trying to see what buses I could to add to my ever growing list. To me this was like giving myself an education about the greatest city in the world and sussing out the infrastructure and what went where.

I still come up to London on a very frequent basis and am obviously excited about the transport projects that the capital has lined up, for instance, the possibility of extending the Croydon Tramlink to Crystal Palace, Crossrail, the extension of the Piccadilly Line to Terminal Five and many other exciting projects.

It seems that the fact that I post pictures of buses and trains on my blog has also become something of a trademark. I am glad of it; at least someone will remember my blog this way and it might well have some more bite. Cheers!
