Sorry to be late with this one: I have named him Carlisle after the Greater Anglia cleaning company.

#Billericay station last week.

The cleaner on the platforms told me he was his friend and that he feeds him. Almost got on the train with me..

I spend too much time doing copy and paste, from too many folders, that nobody else can be bothered to open.....

Made me think of Dickens' The Signal-Man, the gasis of a very good film by the BBC some years ago. Love the railway library.
