ABC Wednesday:E is for
Euston Express at Edgeley
This is a Virgin Express train at Stockport.
Stockport station used to be known as Stockport (Edgeley) to distinguish it from Stockport (Tiviotdale). The latter was on a no longer existing line whose route has been largely claimed by the M60 motorway.
All trains passing over the famous Stockport viaduct must stop at the station. The only other stops on this route from Manchester Piccadilly to London Euston are usually Macclesfield and Stoke-on-Trent.

It looks like an express that is very comfortable - I just hope it keeps the schedule :-)
I love trains! And particularly the express trains! Great post for the day, Gerald, as always! Hope you have a great week!

That looks like quite an elegant express train. It would be wonderful to ride.
Is this what people call bullet train? How fast this train goes looks like it's fun to ride a train ^_^.

Euston Express is beautiful! I'd love to take a tour on it.
The Euston Express - perfect!
On behalf of the team, thank you for taking part in ABC Wednesday this week! :)
love the titular alliteration, and love trains!
All the E's in one glorious place! What a great place to be. My hubby loves trains.
I used to use Virgin trains regularly, but not so much nowadays. Rail travel has become so very expensive.
I adore trains and love train rides.
Recently took my family for a holiday
by train. Was great until my youngest
fell off her bed. OUCH!
Wonderful ABC WEDNESDAY's post.
