I’ve been a bit lax updating my walking-project of late, so today I picked up the thread again, and photographed my whole commute. This is a journey I make four times a week. From door to door takes 2 hours, 45 minutes, and covers a total distance of 120 miles. 3 of those miles are on foot, the rest are spent at ease, on a train zipping down the East Coast Mainline. I do exactly the same on the way back. Its a long journey (and can seem so in the winter), but the trains are quiet enough to work on, and one can usually sit by oneself. The singular bonus of this trip is the amazing scenery of East Lothian, the Borders, and Northumbria. I see this wonderful coastal landscape almost every day, but never tire of looking at it. Surely this has to be the most spectacular train journey in Britain? I think so, anyway. The photos of Berwick and Gateshead were taken this evening, the rest this morning. Photos 3 through 9 were snapped from the window of a fast moving train, hence the hazy-fuzziness of some. Well, that’s my excuse anyway. Here come the photos . . .
