The Anonymous Widower

A Trip To Cardiff

Yesterday, I went to Cardiff to see Ipswich lose to Cardiff City.

These are some pictures I took on the way.

I think it is true to say that the electrification is being put up by snails and there seems to be little progress since I wrote Passing Didcot Power Station twelve months ago.

Note the following.

• Very little seems to be happening around Reading station, except the erection of a few masts.
• The cause of a lot of the trouble – the HOPS train at Swindon.
• The depot for the Class 800/801 trains at Filton Triangle.
• The extra platforms at Cardiff Central station.
• The work at Cardiff to create a new Central Square.

A lot of the work, that is this side of Bristol, is a total disaster.
