Bradshaw

From Bradshaw, the companion guide to On Our Lines
Welcome to Bradshaw

Introduction

Bradshaw is the On Our Lines knowledge base, so-named after pioneering railway publisher George Bradshaw. It's the ultimate companion to the main On Our Lines adventures, offering more detail, exclusive behind-the-scenes content and a whole host of other handy information about our trips. And the best part is that, because it's a wiki, anyone can edit the information contained within - your thoughts, your feedback and even your own experiences - especially if you've come out on a trip with us!

Stations of the Month

Every month we randomly choose seventeen stations situated across Great Britain and eighteen stations situated across the Benelux region, and challenge you to visit them! The pick for January 2025 is below, and you can find out more, including how to enter and all of the previous stations, by heading to Stations of the Month!

Picture of the Month

Every month we highlight a different photograph taken by a member of the On Our Lines community! The winning entry is chosen by our Discord staff and Patreons, and is displayed across our social media and Internet platforms for the following month. Find out more, and how to submit your own images, at Picture of the Month.

We take a look behind the scenes at Amersham signal cabin for our first image of the year, from Jarley. The V-style interlocking machine is one of many found across the Underground, with Amersham's expected to remain in service for at least another two years.
