Beeching’s Blockbuster. The Railway Revolution. 2,228 Stations to Go. Dr Beeching proposes to close half of the country’s railway stations and rip up 5,000 miles of track. London fares will go up 2s in the pound and some season tickets will be stopped. One of the stations to close is the Welsh station of Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch.

With Anzac day coming up here in Oz (and Aotearoa New Zealand) there will be a lot of speeches about our soldiers' bravery, honour, sacrifice, etc. It's a solemn day but beyond the ceremony we mostly get a very sanitised version of war for public consumption.
So in this pic I just wanted to capture a little moment, long after the guns had gone silent. The soldier returns, forever changed.
Traveling soon? Might want to include some of these.
