Home-keeping dogs have homely wits,Their notions tame and poor;I scorn the dog who humbly sitsBefore the cottage door,Or those who weary vigils keep,Or follow lovely kine;A dreary life midst stupid sheepShall neer be lot of mine.For free from thrall I travel far,No fixed abode I own;I leap aboard a railway car;By every one I know;Today I am here, tomorrow bringsMe miles and miles away;Borne swiftly on steams rushing wings,I see fresh friends each day.Each Driver from the footplate halesMy coming with delight;I gain from all upon the rails;A welcome ever bright;I share the perils of the linewith mates from end to end,Who would not for a silver mineHave harm befall their friendLet other dogs snarl and fight,And round the city prowl,Or render hideous the nightWith unmelodious howl.I have a cheery bark for all,No ties my travels clog;I hear the whistle, thats the callFor Bob, the drivers dog.

Great little town with lots of rail history and super friendly locals, made us feel very welcome. Gets a tad cold in mid winter but bring your woolies and you will be fine.

The story of Bob the railway dog was facinating. Visit Peterborough to hear it.

A heartwarming story and tribute to Bob the Railway Dog who sounds like he was a loveable character and sadly missed by those who knew him.
