Whitland end of Clarbeston Road historically has been a slight step up onto the platform, which doesn't suit a 197's wider step at each door! Similarly, 158s have always had to stop signal box end of the platform (the electrical box being the forward limit) because the way their doors open risks...
Having driven the bottom part of the A485 (Carmarthen to Lampeter road) this morning for the first time since reading this thread, I thought I'd offer some context to your comment:
In the first 12 miles there are 29 speed limit changes.
EVERY village in that section is a 20mph limit now.

In terms of where Milford and Fishguard are at in the grand scheme of things, we have done the first set of proving runs to both (11th and 12th September). They will need further proving runs, so not immediate but the process has started.
Pembroke Dock was supposed to have proving runs on the...
We took them on proving runs to both Milford and Fishguard earlier this week. First 197s west of Carmarthen! There will need to be more proving runs before they enter service down there, so not quite imminent but progress is being made.
Down side, ASDO is going to have to be offset forwards to avoid blocking the crossing with anything more than 5 carriages. Presumably it will have to be rechecked once the marker boards are in place.
Ambient Sheep's method works - I was having the same problem a few weeks ago because I needed to redownload the Western Region and the 'preview' option is the only way I could get the pdf copy.
I've pretty much given up trying to check the new 'airline style' tickets - it takes so long to unfold them, particularly after they've been shoved in a pocket and left there all day. I used to fully check all tickets and railcards - these tickets would probably be ideal in the controlled...
Hi Sarah,
Just thought I'd drop you a line to let you know that you have a lot of support over here in West Wales, we'll be thinking of you all through today's action.
Best wishes,
Paul.
I think you're misunderstanding my comment - I agree that there does not appear to be any written explanation of how an undated Rover ticket should be dealt with. I was trying to make the point that there is a contrast between how this situation would have to be dealt with and how (for example)...
Glad it worked out okay for you, but your 'fessing up' is actually the only excuse I've ever heard for not dating the boxes! As you mention, it was fairly clear from the fact that you had already dated at least one previous box that you weren't trying it on and I would probably have not made a...
