    Class 710 LO

    Just seen 710378 at Richmond with 2N53, is this a booked diagram now or just something that's happened?

    Southeastern Metro 465/466 allocations

    One to look out for is the weekday peak Charing Cross-Tunbridge Wells shorts are usually some combination of 465s and 466s. These used to be guaranteed 465/9s back in the first class days, but even since I've not seen one be 375s.

    Greater Anglia Bombardier Aventras (Class 720): Technical discussion and introduction

    Friend has just reported passing 720516 on the M62 this afternoon. Presumably coming back from Longsight to... somewhere?

    Multiple Working

    I've heard stories that some of the 90s did indeed reach "interesting" speeds when being driven from the DVT...

    Multiple Working

    I'd be impressed if you manage to get past 75 on a Rugeley stopper! They were great as everyone made a beeline for the 170 so the only people in the 153 were either cranks or fare evading!

    SWR Metro fleet permanent withdrawals

    Noticing the usual pair of 707s aren't out today-off to southeastern or just disgraced after failing yesterday?

    WCML blockade - impact on EMR services? (29/03 - 01/04)

    Looks like trying to get out of St Pancras on Friday morning was a mistake then-am I likely to get away with it before 9am or shall I pack my boxing gloves and a hard hat?

    SWR Metro fleet permanent withdrawals

    Typical, the one day I don't need to get it! 2C16 was announced as "I'm pleased to announce this train is formed of 10 coaches this morning"! I can't help but notice that it was reported in journey check as 10 vice 8 this morning, but never gets a look in when it's 4 or 5!

    SWR Metro fleet permanent withdrawals

    The question that most of us want to know the answer to is whether 2C18 will go back to having more than 4/5 coaches on!

    Class 701 'Aventra' trains for South Western Railway

    I'll do you a swap, one of the key peak readings was 4-455 yesterday and 5-458 this morning....

    10 Car v 9 Car IET Staffing

    Thanks for the insight-never realised they weren't allowed to have the guard get off at Oxford! Where is it that turbos run guarded-Basing, north Downs, Marlow & beyond Oxford? Is Windsor DO?
