    Chiltern 68's at weekends

    If you look at the weekday Diagrams, you will see all of your timed departures are in them. Chilterns 68 fleet is a bit hit and miss at the moment. But i am now on over 26,000 miles for this year out of them.

    Chiltern 68's at weekends

    Can confirm 1G27 11:40 Marylebone to Snow Hill is 68008 this morning. And going on OpenTrainTimes live. It would of Worked 1H13 this morning also. I believe that this may well be a new Diagram, because it was a 68 last Sunday also.

    No more DB for staff travel ?

    I have used Rail Canterbury and found them very good. The same service as DB was. Booked eurostar tickets via email last week at 16:00 on a monday afternoon, tickets arrived in the post before lunchtime the next day. A very happy customer.

    Chiltern Oxford Link completed

    Yep. Oxford is a bottle neck. Has been for years now. A down relief line to Wolvercot is only moving the same problem a bit further north. Oxford North Junctions is a very Slow Junction today. Very little room to speed it up. For the East-West/Electric Spin would have to be a Reading West...
