    South Wales 'Metro' updates

    I don't think this is entirely correct it seems to suggest the aberdare to city line trains will loop when I believe they'll actually reverse at Cardiff Central. That would mean the Merthyr's reversing also. They might as well join up the route.

    Could HS2 have terminated at St Pancras?

    "Not enough demand for travel between HS2 and HS1 to justify special connection arrangements." How do you know, wouldn't be great to be able to travel from Birmingham or further north to Paris say on one train, that would not stay at St Pancras for that long.

    More Delay for HS2, and how should we proceed?

    How it can it not be legal? There is no requirement for governments to be sensible with our money, the only control is the electorate. What control, once every 5 years when it is too late. We need an annual general election for a true democracy.

    Blackpool North: The most unfriendly station in the country?

    The few times I have used it, Clacton is a bit like that too. Mind you, once I was just in time to catch an hourly service as passengers were still going through the barrier!

    Blackpool North: The most unfriendly station in the country?

    Clacton do it sometimes. I thought I was going to miss a once an hour service and was relieved when people were still being held!

    Trivia: How many trainsets are there?

    OK, how many model railways are there in GB!? You are such a pedantic lot on this forum. When somebody says "We are running more services than ever before" or some such, where are the statistics to prove it?

    Trivia: How many trainsets are there?

    I obviously did not myself clear. Is it possible to study all the timetables to work out how many different trains are running at a particular time? Has anybody tried?
