On the way back from Suffolk I found a good place to stop and walk the dog. It was a fen with a good footpath past some small lakes with hides etc. We walked on then came to this most surreal sight. It is a guided busway http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cambridgeshire_Guided_Busway , where a railway used to stand there is now a concrete track for buses to hurtle along, with a cycle track alongside. Although much criticised by rail enthusiasts when it was built [expensive, silly, what is wrong with the train? etc] I can see its appeal as a cheap to run and low risk service. Weird but strangely interesting.
