    Chiltern temporary direct trains from Rowley Regis to Marylebone

    Noticed this morning that, as of this week, Chiltern seems to have (re)introduced direct morning peak trains from Rowley Regis to Marylebone at 0650 and 0727, calling at Smethwick Galton Bridge and Snow Hill before picking up the usual path at Moor St. These are the 68-hauled trains which used...

    There were loads of delays at Waterloo this afternoon, which were explained as being a resut of an 'Operating Incident'. Anyone know what actually happened? (SWT are usually pretty good at advising the real reason for delays).

    Gizzy and LittleRedTrain go to Scotland

    Back earlier this year, Shauna and I decided we would follow up last August’s ALR with another summer bash. Scotland was the chosen destination, as neither of us had much coverage there (in my case, none at all). The plan was to travel out and back by sleeper (on Bargain Berths) and to stay...

    7-day UK ALR Bash (Image Heavy)

    A couple of months ago, Gizmogle and I decided that we'd use the time I'd booked off from work from 15-21 August to go for a 7-day UK bash. Having a disabled railcard allowed me to get a significant discount on an All Line Rover, and she could of course travel for free on her priv. Having...
