    When a member of staff allows a ticketless passenger onto a train.

    Our procedure is to put a message on Tyrellcheck saying not to PF, with the persons name, and where they are traveling from/to. And it is quite easy to ring another station if someone turns up saying "The man on the platform at X said I didn't need a ticket".

    Bighat court conviction

    I think the forum staff on here need praise for cooperating fully too. I'm sure they will also keep an eye on this thread to ensure it does not get out of hand. Also, was this a bad time for this to come into the open?:lol: EDIT: For clarification, the above article will in no way affect this...

    Possible electrification of heritage railways?

    They can easily be made to be though. Such as on various parts of the District line, the Bakerloo line north of Queens Park, the NR lines from Queens Park to Kilburn High Road, and Sarah Siddons can run on both 3rd and 4th rail. But yes, I can't see any heritage lines being electrified in the...

    Watch out on ebay...

    Ralph, I have considered it already - but for 30 quid, is it really worth it for the time and effort it takes? I've used the Small Claims Court before, but that was for over a grand so it was slightly different... --- old post above --- --- new post below --- Nope - have bank details...

    Watch out on ebay...

    Hi all, I'd like to warn anyone buying stock on ebay to watch out for an individual going by the name "littlemanaidan". I won two items off him fair and square on the 28th June '11, have paid and have STILL not received my items (as of 19th September '11). This user begins all nice, and then...

    Split livery trains...

    Hi all, Just a thought - what are peoples ideas on heritage line trains having one livery on each side? For example one side BR blue and the other BR Green? Obviously you wouldn't be able to see both sides at once, and it would add a little more variety for photographers and onlookers...

    Southern Trains 90% OFF Advance tickets - book until midnight this Sunday

    Have been trying to book tickets for three hours... Keeps alternating between "travelling from" and "travelling to" pages :( Oh, and I hope everyone else who's got a little bit of intelligence has switched it to "text only" - speeds it up to snail speed from stand still ;)
