🍂 Stunning autumnal photos of our railway. 😍

Did you know that during #autumn we use leaf-busting trains? They clean the top of the rail by spraying it with a high-pressured water jet:

🚌It's Bus Users UK's #CatchTheBusMonth. This year's theme? #MythBusting

❌Myth: “Buses are dirty and polluting”
✔️Truth: Buses are cleaner per passenger than cars and one full bus can take up to 75 cars off the road

So why not get on board 🚌💚
