Have they solved the problem where a 777 from one factory will not connect to one from the other factory?

And that is why I have never been to see the boat lift.

Good Weather, School Holidays, Saturday. If they cant make a profit on the 84 today, they never will.

Many thanks 43055

D & G's timetable still shows as West Street, but the maps are by the council.

Intended to catch 10:38 Route 84 Crewe - Chester today. Saw on Arriva app journey cancelled so did not travel. Please get rid of them now, and let another operator get on with providing a stable service. Arriva cut their own throat in Crewe with the strikes soon after the pandemic was over...

I emailed RAIB about this in 2017. Their reponse at that time did not fill me with confidence. Do the investigations at the moment mean that somebody is going to do something?

Twice recently I have just missed an 84 at Crewe bus station snd had to wait nearly an hour as the Nantwich journeys were cancelled, the only services running were the hourly journeys to Chester. In the other direction I arrived at my local stop to find a passenger who said he had been waiting...

Absolutely useless. any other reliable way of getting North from Crewe without it taking a whole day would be appreciated

https://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/service/gb-nr:85061/2021-12-02/detailed 6Z23 2243 Crewe Down Refuge Siding to Kirkdale C.S.

The lines connected, but not using BR tracks. There was a once a daily freight trip between the lines using the Rylands company's private tracks. This had ceased by 1960 because of a dispute over demurrage charges between Rylands and British Rail. Britsh Rail started charging for demurrage...

There were a very few services that ran from Birkdale to St Lukes without reversing at Southport These were peak hour only and I cannot recall any running in my lifetime. My grandfather told me he used them commuting to Liverpool pre war travelling from St. Lukes to Liverpool. In addition there...

Platforms 4-6 at Southport were never electrified. The Platforms used for the Crossens Service were platforms 9 & 10 (most trains using 9) which are now under the car park between the present platforms and London Street. It was possible for a Crossens Train to arrive in Platform 3. One did...

Presumably when it works its way to the top of the plan somebody will get down to fixing it

But at the opening date there already was a Southport Central http://www.disused-stations.org.uk/s/southport_central/index.shtml

Due to passengers now being forced to exit Crewe station by the Weston Road exit exactly the same argument should be used to justify a bus service from the Weston Road exit to the Nantwich Road entrance to Crewe station. Whenever I alight at Crewe station I always seem be alighting after having...

Slightly off topic but for longest walk from train to Booking office . I would suggest Crewe, Northern end of Platform 11. Route most of platform 11 then subway to Weston Road entrance, then walk across car park to road, along to roundabout, turn left over road bridge, enter station forecourt...

Whilst that Marks & Spencer was being built, originally as a Co-op store, an empty Class 502 EMU coming from the sidings overshot the buffers on Platform 3 and ended up across the present concourse with the area forward of the first set of doors inside what is now the store, then a construction...

This morning signal failure at Cheadle Hulme stopping everything in the direction of Manchester. Northern are right when they say everything is almost back to normal. A few more driver shortages and unit breakdowns and it will be.
