That is a fair point.
I was marvelling at the advancement to actually put the front wheel on the rail and did not spot the axle.

Very genteel. There's a touch of the Jeeves and Wooster about that scene. One thing that does strike me about your image, and the others here latterly, is how good AI is at becoming at getting track details right. That bullhead track looks pretty authentic. One giveaway still for AI is that it doesn't really do realistic OLE but I'm sure that will come. Anyway - am really enjoying this Alice-in-Railwayland thread. Fab!

What if the tram-train trial on the Penistone Line first mooted in 2010 had been a success and led to a rather unconventional form of electrification of the line?

Given everything in this image - there would be a lot of complaints about the lack of toilets.

Yes, but the (late) queen still appears in the security 'window'. Maybe, being railway themed, that space should contain some well known railway person. Beeching, maybe?

What if the Middle East conflict led to oil supplies running out so TOCs could no longer run diesel services? Fear not - maybe, just maybe, the rumour really turned out to be true?

Given fewer people tend to use cash these days; I'm totally here for the sheer chaos caused at checkouts of people having to do both the mental arithmetic and then to pay in multiples of 37!Try as I might, I couldn't get a class 37 on a £37 note!

(I'll freely admit these days my own ability to swiftly do maths when paying has similarly declined in an age of Contactless / Apple Pay for nearly everything!)

Or make it even crueller, with separate notes for
£37.00, £37.30, £37.40, £37.50, £37.70, £37.90.
£47.00, £47.30, £47.40, £47.70, £47.80 (and a special edition £47.60 / £47.90 with 47 601 / 47 901...)

What if, steam had not finished in 1968 (3) Oh dear, trespassing Dave? Loss of power brings some interesting assistance.

Some brilliant images to catch up on. The cows are clearly enjoying sticking their heads out in the open countryside. I do hope there are no carriage brushing buddleia around the corner.
Great banknotes too. I deal in the £730.00 and £730.20 notes.

Building on the steam assistance series. Here we see an A4 offering cross-pennine assistance to a Pendolino. Sadly, the A4 was too strong for the internal couplings and only 3 carriages of the Hitchcock special livery train have been brought along.

This is brilliant. But should the train not be a diesel-hauled rake of Mk4 carriages that had been specially adapted with droplights? Could use Mk2s but there are mixed opinions on the seats.

You might want to check overhead clearance on the second one.
But if the intention is to deny use of the railway to opposing forces, blowing a bridge up might be easier and as effective.

Slipped away - what if slip-carriage working continued into British Rail Sectorisation era? Here, an IC125 acclerates away from its just-slipped portion. The HST will continue along this diverging branch, whilst the two detached Mk3 carriages will be brought to a halt at the local station just...

To be fair, TfW started it with their armoured off-rail 150/2 invading Manchester (Image from January)
It just appears to have taken the DfT a long time to formulate a response. Previous attempts never got beyond a Class 180 driving car in a Wiltshire field.

What if, Five Didn`t Have Bike Reservations? "Oh Anne, pull yourself together" said George.

I suspect the escalating situation with the cycle reservation stand-off and the armoured 180 are not related. However, I would like to read a thread in the "Disputes and Prosecutions" forum about the use of missiles as a deterrent to non-compliance with ticket restrictions.

Five Get Caught Using Only A "Two Together" Ticket

I trust you will write a suitable letter to get them off. Clearly, it is a case of only needing 4 tickets. The incompetence of the penalty fare issuing agent to say five clearly invalidates the claim.
I would not encourage Five to contact the station for the CCTV to prove there was only 4 tickets needed. The dog fouling charge that would follow would be unnecessary self-incrimination. No one should encourage people to incriminate themselves with regard to the railway.
Now if it was 5ive on the other hand...

To honour Mother's Day the creative juices are flowing. However, attempt one went a bit cartoon-like.
The unnecessary woke-esque merge of Father's Day and Mother's Day on the platform display was not actually my request. Nor were the adverts for other "Days" which the USA celebrates today. Do chceck out the Armadillo podcast though
