The old station at Richmond is a nice place to stop off at, nice cafe and little quirky shops, bakers, brewers and ice cream makers if you were passing through :-D

You may have driven past this Richmond attraction :-D

Me too, I pass it now and then as my eldest granddaughter lives close to it, and we used to drive past it every weekend in the eighties and nineties.
Only been on it once, in 1958-ish.

There is a Wales tour for Jim and I in the pipeline, maybe for next Spring, and maybe you could join us on a visit to Newport and a ride on that one Gibbo? :-D

Strange as it may seem, the next bridge to the Tees Transporter is the Newport Bridge.
Been on that many times when the Tees Flyover was closed.
