PS Waverley is a Clyde steamer, the last seagoing passenger-carrying paddle steamer in the world. Built in 1946, she sailed from Craigendoran on the Firth of Clyde to Arrochar on Loch Long until 1973. Bought by the Paddle Steamer Preservation Society (PSPS), she has been restored to her 1947 appearance and now operates passenger excursions around the British coast.
Since 2003, Waverley has been listed in the National Historic Fleet by National Historic Ships UK as "a vessel of pre-eminent national importance".
She was built for the London and North Eastern Railway (LNER) to replace a PS Waverley that was sunk in 1940 while helping to evacuate troops from Dunkirk.
The new vessel was ordered from shipbuilders A. & J. Inglis of Glasgow, who laid the keel at their Pointhouse shipyard on 27 December 1945, Lady Matthews, wife of the Chairman of the LNER, launched the new 693 ton steamer on 2 October 1946.
Fitting out proceeded, around the end of the year the ship was towed to Victoria Harbour in Greenock where Rankin & Blackmore installed the engine and coal-fired boiler they had manufactured. After sea trials in June 1947, Waverley entered service on 16 June, working the LNER's Firth of Clyde steamer route from Craigendoran Pier, near Helensburgh, up Loch Long to Lochgoilhead and Arrochar, joining the LNER Clyde paddle steamer fleet of Lucy Ashton, Jeanie Deans and Talisman. In her first year in service, she wore that company's red, white and black funnel colours.

8 września 2026 był ostatnim dniem, w którym kolorowa 754.067 "Petruška" poprowadziła rychliki "Krakonoš" między Trutnovem a Hradcem Králové. Lokomotywa przejdzie naprawę i nie wróci do ruchu nie wcześniej niż w przyszłym roku.
Na fotografii 754.067 oraz przebywająca wówczas w Trutnovskim depo, zimna 754.042 na czele R 932 "Krakonoš" (Trutnov hl.n - Praha hl.n.) złapane w promieniach powoli wyłaniającego się zza góry słońca

GWR Railcar W22 approaches Gotherington with the 09.00 Toddington to Cheltenham Racecourse service on 9-5-26.
This is a going-away picture I have some very nicely lit close-ups but they clearly show no driver so I thought I'd try to create the illusion of the train coming towards the camera. I have tried to create an image of peacefulness and normality!
The railcar was visiting from Didcot Railway Centre.
