This from Whitehall...
Several hundred civil servants who serve in the Reserve Forces are
proudly wearing their military uniforms to work today, 26 June, in job
centres, tax offices and government departments across the country to
mark Uniform to Work Day.
And quite right too!
After all Saturday is Armed Forces Day.
But who is this we spy in the accompanying pictures?
Well blow me, if it isn't Sgt 'High-tops' Stargazey, of the Queen's Own Regiment of Spinners!
Eye wonders if a certain Lt Col in the trade press isn't tempted, just very occasionally, to pull rank?
Nice video from First Great Western!
In their own words...
Castle Cary is normally one of the quality (sic) stations on the First Great
Western network, seeing around 1000 passengers pass through it each day.
But,
during Glastonbury Festival week, the station turns into the central
hub for revelers traveling to the festival - with passenger numbers
increasing by five or six times that number.
This video shows the transformation on day one of the festival this year.
Over
the course of the festival First Great Western will be providing more
than 50 extra trains and 13,000 extra seats to help get customers to
Glastonbury, avoiding thousands of additional car journeys to the site.
Good effort - shows the railway doing what it does best; moving large numbers of people, safely.
This from National Express...
Mary Grant, former chief executive officer, Phones 4U, will join
National Express in July 2013 as Managing Director, Business
Development. Her role initially will be to work on international growth
opportunities. She will increasingly focus on UK Rail opportunities
during 2014.
Who'd have guessed?
This from The Albatross...
In the middle of the barren salt marshes of East Sussex lies Norman's Bay station, with it's very own 'Meeting Point'!
Who? Why? When?
