    First Captial Connect 317 brake problems?

    Evening all, once again. I would like to state now that I am not questioning FCC's know-how about there locos, I simple wanted to know what the problem could be. I understand that FCC know what they are doing, and that they will know more than I do, and I was not saying that they don't know...

    First Captial Connect 317 brake problems?

    Evening all. Thanks for the replies, I never really thought about all the other things that rely on compressed air to work properly. After the suggestions made, I still think that having a train running with poteintal faults as suggested is a bit unsafe? Surly it should be taken out of...

    First Captial Connect 317 brake problems?

    Afternoon to all. I quick question about a First Capital Connect service that I was on the other day. I was only doing a short run from Knebworth to Welwyn Garden city, and noticed that the compressor on the underside of the class 317, was constantly starting up. As sad as it may be, but...

    Rules of the Railway

    I say band the one person who always sits at the 4 seat and table configuration on a class 365. Guaranteed that every time I get a ride on a 365, one person takes up the same amount of space as 4. Not only does it annoy me, but families and groups of people that wish or need to sit next to...

    Why are EMUs under-represented in model form

    I personally am into more modern locomotives, and I love the very few that are out there for sale. I only own a Class 466, but I would love to see more class 365s in the FCC livery as well as the class 317 and possible the class 321. I think the idea of bringing stuff out for the...

    Bt police

    Surely with the Olympic Games coming up next year, the Idea of having armed BTP would benefit everyone. I wouldn’t have a clue on how many would be needed to cope with next year, but I think a few more wouldn’t do any harm. The idea of them being on trains would be beneficial as well...

    help please

    Hello everyone. I too, am also thinking of ripping up my railway set, although I only have a small 4x6 layout. I am a member of a local model railway club, who had told me about XTrkCAD. It is fairly complicated program to use, depending on your I.C.T skills, but defiantly worth looking at. It...

    Best free app for real time train times

    I have just read some of the reviews posted on here about the Apps that are around on the market for free. I am constantly on my new Ipod touch and have downloaded the DB navigator, and Cross Country Train Time app. Both apps are very good time tables, although the times on the XC Train Time...

    East Coast Class 90?

    I have read an artical in the latest issue of RAIL, who have said, that because the class 90s top speed is maxed out at 110 mph, they may have to provide a new timetable as Network Rail will have provide new routing times. As of what I have understood they will simple place the DBS class 90 on...
