Anyone know which train number it's running as for my records? Can't find a copy of the TTN online to check. The indicators on the front say 150 but not sure if it would be known as that "internally" or not...
Cheers, much appreciated!It is indeed running as T150; TTN 150/19 refers.
Some very good photos!Here's some pictures from West Kensington at 14.50 yesterday ( Saturday 22nd ):
These ARE two outstanding pictures! They'll definitely win "Photo of the Month"!

I found that rather a churlish thing to say at the time if I'm honest. It's certainly not good to see any event like this underpatronised although from where I was standing it looked pretty full so the footfall must have increased with the intervening months. The LTM did their research and established a price point that people were happy to pay...........it's good to see that none of the trains are sold out suggesting that I'm not alone in voting with my feet..........
How did the Chesham set get from the Bluebell to Ruislip? Old boy down the pub asked me. Thnx.
Cheers!By rail. A pair of Class 73s were used.
sometimes you have to down scale the photos which can be done online, also best to choose insert every image as thumbnails rather than full image - some of mine
I rather think you'll find that more people were unhappy with the price than happy to pay it.I found that rather a churlish thing to say at the time if I'm honest.

Judging from your vantage point in the picture of L12 approaching Earl's Court - was it you I spoke to to ask where it was and how late it was...?
I rather doubt that you, I, or anybody else for that matter, would find anything as no poll was taken to establish the facts. In any case, it doesn't matter now how many people were unhappy or otherwise as the trains sold out which means the LTM got it right, regardless of how quickly they got purchased. Mind you, one thing we have in common is I've been called far worse as well.......I rather think you'll find that more people were unhappy with the price than happy to pay it.
The trains were indeed sold out but the last seats only sold in the week before the trains ran while my and others expectation was that they would sell out within hours of coming on sale assuming the price had been more reasonable. I'd expected to pay around £80 and while still expensive, I'd have paid that.
As for being a churl...
Well, I've been called far worse!
depends, I was there on the Saturday with a couple of other people
You're right, I'm sorry about post #71. It was my first time uploading photos (to any website other than email, not just Railforums), so I didn't know how it works. Maybe an administrator could change them to icons so it doesn't disturb normal reading of this forum. Now that I know how it works, I've looked through Sunday's photos and chosen my 'top ten'.

Yes, the Saturday - if you were one of the two people at that position you'd probably remember me establishing where it was then quickly heading off to West Kensington to get a better angle; it would have been around 14.00, maybe a few minutes earlier, when I spoke to you, if it was you.
Sorry but Ive never heard of that.ECS is most definitely used in some parts of LUL service control. “Sorry for the pedantry”.
