10 years ago today I walked into Fenchurch Street station to start my first day on the railway 🥹✨ 10 years and I still feel so lucky to be able to say I love my job. From gateline/train dispatch to shunter, to mainline driver and now driving intercity, it’s been an adventure!

I was delighted to meet with Keir Starmer yesterday, raising the need for cross-departmental working to achieve our landmark commitment to halving violence against women and girls.

Great day, great result, well done Charlie.

Another one who wiped out a team, Alan. Moments to go after an epic display by Blackpool FC - when everyone in Tangerine 🧡 had given everything - ball hits defender square in the middle of the back. Penalty given to Wrexham AFC and baying crowd. Wrecked Boxing Day for so many.
