You’ve got it John. Close to The Falkirk Wheel which is an engineering marvel and certainly worth a visit.

This is a photo of a photo but I think it gives the idea. Where is the train about to arrive in Europe?

In Switzerland.

Gornergrat?
Fri 02 Sep, 2022 4:39 pm
Yes, Eggs. We caught the train up from Zermatt to Gornergratt for some spectacular scenery.

We had a stroll from the next peak over in nice summer weather.
Lets stay in Europe - more a touristy shot
- Chillon Castle on Lake Geneva

That's me camping in my other tent (when I'm not going lightweight).
It takes nine very long trekking poles to set it up.

not sure if that was an attempt at an answer?
This is in Switzerland

Yes Greg - on Lake Geneva

Now, if you'd put in a few suitably Byronic clues, I might have gotten it.
Mon 05 Sep, 2022 3:36 pm
I am afraid I did not recollect the connection - and it appears that Ribuck was alluding to that as well.
Sorry

Thanks Eggs ( sorry NNW I can only do Moronic hints not Byronic)
This ones in Nepal. I need to get a winner quick as I'm off bush soon.

I think you're at the monastery at Tengboche again but without much snow.

Yep Take it away Graham. Mercifully I am going overseas again next April and can't start to find new pictures instead of constantly re-cycling the same old locations.

Sorry for the delay. Where in USA is this?

Yes that’s it. Up behind the Hollywood sign. We stopped to talk to a man outside the gate of the communication facility there and a voice came over a speaker telling us to move on. Similar thing in San Diego when we stopped to look at the traffic at the border and we’re told we weren’t allowed to stop, had to keep moving. Weird, but what would you expect?
Wed 07 Sep, 2022 9:00 pm
Yeah that is weird. Only in America. Back to Switzerland..

Going troppo again, South Pacific. One for the rail fans.
Just name the country I'm in, bonus points for the island and/or full name of the train (which I've partly obscured):
- The Puffing Boto train, Cuvu, Viti Levu, Fiji

Yes Graham. We did a day trip on it years ago to the beach for lunch and horse riding.
Mon 12 Sep, 2022 3:47 pm
Thanks John. A little bit of an internet search helped there.
Which town in UK was I in here?

I was going to say the clue is in the picture but now I’ve looked more closely I’ve found the answer is in the picture.
