LNER did it, first class no less, for "Lets Go Round Again".

Ex PLY, 1st was about 60% full, most being enthusiasts. A handful joined at EXD. We bailed at TVP and I'd be interested to hear whether it becomes busier than usual further north

That's encouraging. I seem to recall reading of cases where someone with a reserved seat A to D finds someone else gets on at B with a ticket for the same seat, to C. I seem to recall ongoing debate about it. There might be more people than usual that day, being the last day of HST service, but...

Having read that XC does this, what is my best argument next Monday if I find my reserved 1st class seats Tiverton - Plymouth - Tiverton are occupied by someone else with a "valid" claim?

Thanks Tim I'll keep an eye out for that.

Assuming the whole network is standard gauge, there is already a rail link from the destination port to at least one station on the Tren Maya network. The ship docks down the coast from the new Tren Maya line. 1694087091 The gulf crossing from the US to the southern end of the Yucatan...

03:00 on the 8th according to the site in my previous link.

XPTs were downrated to 2000 hp with more capable cooler groups etc.

"Only in AIS range. Once it's circa 100miles offshore, it won't be trackable. So you'll have it until its west of Ireland and then as it navigates the Gulf" This site does the job:- https://www.marinetraffic.com/en/ais/home/shipid:6280144/zoom:10

East side for the views of the estuaries/sea in Devon. Table seat, assuming it is window-aligned, gives a better panoramic view. I like to be towards the rear of the carriage, so as not to have a bulkhead breaking up the view.

In my limited observational experience the tubes often seem to be about four times as long as they need to be, and flap about in the slipstream. I look forward to learning the reason for the excess! Many Thanks - Morpethcurve

Many Thanks.

Could anyone refer me to such a thing please? Many Thanks - Morpethcurve

Many Thanks. I'll check on the day, and get an Anytime.

I'm hoping to get an HST LDS to DHM on Oct 4th. Published diagrams imply 1S51 and 1S53. The latter, acc. to RTT:- "Starts as High Speed Train, changes en route..." Could someone kindly explain that to me please? Does it actually swap trains? RTT also gives 1S49 and 1S55 as HSTs. Can that be...

Good Day All. In 1970/71, aged 10, I'd go down to Morpeth station of an evening, where a loco and two or three vans sat in the bay platform until leaving for Newcastle around 8 pm. One night the driver took us through the engine room! Does anyone know where else the train stopped (I never saw...

CyrusWuff, many thanks from Morpethcurve (GWR 43s).

I see there are a few out there which seem to deal with steam era gradients. Is there a respected tome covering current infrastructure (which I acknowledge will be in many cases the same)?

In 1970 when I was 10, we moved to a house overlooking the midpoint of the Morpeth curve (On Low Stobhill). For a week or so we were without carpets and found that we could draw pencil lines around furniture legs to see how much they moved overnight. Even before the carpets went down the whole...
