On the train to Lagos...

No, not Nigeria, it's just Portugal!
Having forgone my visit to America a few months ago due to catching Covid, I have since treated myself to a fortnight in Turkey, and now just back from a very enjoyable sunny and warm two weeks in southern Portugal. Staying in Portimão, Algarve area, I took a short train trip to Lagos, the end of the line. There is a new station building, but the former old station still stands, just. Broad gauge track meant a wider train than UK standards. Ticket was inspected each way, and fare was just £4 return.

Glad to hear you've recovered and had a nice Holiday in the Sun Eddie!

Hope maybe you can come to Toronto next year for the 2024 Gathering, it's been too long since we saw you!

Beautiful train, and I always like seeing the tiles on the buildings in Portugal.

Was just in Portugal last month - love the place!
