    CAF class 197 Civity for TfW: News and updates on introduction.

    Not yet left Donnington The 17:30 would be ideal as Mk4, but needs to be booked 5 or 6 car if it isn't already, especially midweek.

    Eurostar: use of original 'classic line'

    No. Brussels can be done in 110min on a clear run. I used to go there often.

    Eurostar: use of original 'classic line'

    Thanks, can't Eurostar do Paris in exactly 2 hours on a clear run under normal circumstances?

    May 2025 Timetable Change - Confirmed Changes Only

    Thanks: will trains on 07 June be affected too, or is it just one weekend? Avanti tickets for 07 June don't go on sale until this Saturday (12 weeks in advance) anyway.

    Eurostar: use of original 'classic line'

    Are Eurostar being routed via classic lines on Sunday 08.06? They're taking nearly 2.5 hours from London to Paris yet seemingly no intermediate stops.

    May 2025 Timetable Change - Confirmed Changes Only

    Thank you. Also, I'm looking for the Manchester to Nuneaton trains on 31 May and can't see them. They usually leave Manchester at 35 past the hour. Is AvantiWestCoast finalised yet?

    May 2025 Timetable Change - Confirmed Changes Only

    Is 13:41 arrival for a 16:10 flight ok? Plus potentially at least a half in the Windmill? There's no 12:41 arrival until May, and I'd be travelling next month. Like you, I'm glad to see XC back hourly at Stansted.

    Tuesday to Thursday is busier than ever with commuters.

    TfW Class 67+Mk4 sets: trip planning/experiences, diagram updates etc

    Is the 12:30 from Manchester not booked Mk4 on Saturdays?

    Progress on Avanti West Coast's 805/807s Hitachi AT300 sets

    It's about the only thing that is less irritating than under VT!

    So still strike timetable this Sunday, but normal the following two Sundays?

    A colleague of mine was on that too. 16:30 from Piccadilly.

    Manchester Metrolink (Non speculative discussion)

    MUFC were at home today, so doubles would've been required on all lines passing near the Theatre of Dreams. Except it seems to be more like the Theatre of Torture at the moment.

    Northern- Why Can't we vent anymore?

    What was the excuse there? Should've been 4-car but fault meant a short-form?

    Wales Premier Dining

    Why isn't the 20:30 booked Mk4? Eight hours previous is 12:30, which is.

    Hope Valley stopping services

    Whilst on this matter, wouldn't it make sense for at least one Sheffield-bound TPE or EMR to call at Hazel Grove in the evening? The 06:35 Nottingham to Liverpool already does going towards Manchester in the morning, and a welcome addition it is too.
