Not a cancellation, but 1C50 tonight was 70 late from Paddington and with only one seated vehicle. Seated passengers were allowed access to the lounge car. No explanation for the delay given and not mentioned on GWR website/Journeycheck or social media. Back on time by Plymouth.
I was booked on the GWR from Reading to Pembroke Dock today, and got an email about 10 days ago to say it had been cancelled. No reason given. Nor any info when I tried asking GWR on Messenger. Advised to ‘get the next train to Pembroke Dock’, which I assume is 15 July!
I travelled on the...
Does anyone ‘in the know’ happen to have the breakdown of which trains serve which menu? A LNER chat assistant has just advised that, northbound, *only* the weekday 0615 ex KGX serves the Full LNER breakfast. That can’t be right, surely?
Interesting (and encouraging!) to see that an hourly service ran for much of the opening day. Though I thought NR had indicated that further infrastructure enhancement was required before an hourly service could be run, so was something temporarily lashed up to achieve that yesterday or is it...
Yes I am, and no I didn’t. I’m on the seats (surprisingly boneshaking, given the newness) and sniffed out an attendant. Toilet broken in the Aberdeen seated carriage too.
Situation ongoing at Beattock, where the Down Highlander is stuck behind a failed freight (looks to be 4S24 1913 DIRFT-Mossend), which is awaiting a rescue loco. Mail train here as well to complicate /further delay matters. Two hours late and counting...
Not the fault of CS of course but...

Just wondered if anyone knows if the Tico Train tour is still operating in Costa Rica - information is scarce and several years out of date. Any gen appreciated.
What happens to VT first class catering on Scottish bank holidays (eg 1 August)? Reduced 'weekend' offering or does the English non-bank holiday trump it and ensure a full service? Any ideas?
I can't remember my last bash as a child (too long ago!) but I do recall my final journey with a YP railcard: the Hertford loop, with about 90 minutes of validity remaining, thereby completing my coverage of the UK passenger network.

Interestingly, I've just been sent (and responded to) a survey about loyalty schemes from Crosscountry, which mentioned East Coast Rewards by name. Naturally I told them that if they were to replicate this scheme across the Arriva group of TOCs they would get the custom Virgin/Stagecoach are...
