    There are still 4 Scania E400s that need doing. I believe 6986 is at Newhaven. There are 2 Enviro 200s that are also in Southdown livery still in service.

    Does the 1tpd London Overground Woodgrange Park to Willesden Junction service still run

    Probably not needed since the 710s have significantly more capacity than the 172s. It was probably in place to help with overcrowding.

    Brighton & Hove / Metrobus Discussion

    Looks like Metrobus have a bit of a double decker shortage at the moment with 6014 and 6015 covering at Copthorne. Whatever is tracking as 6960 is also a single decker as that bus itself broke down in Caterham yesterday.

    South Western Railway service disruption (06/09)

    Is there an industrial relations issue that has come about? I've noticed it happen a lot more recently whereas their overtime ban service wasn't that bad when compared to Thameslink. Otherwise I guess 701 and 458/4 training could be an issue?

    Why was Wizz Air Malta set up?

    It's not just Wizz and Ryanair (who have 2, Malta Air and Lauda Europe). There is also a Eurowings one and most of the wet-lease airlines have Maltese subsidiaries - tax reason given it has EU advantage but also low taxes

    East Croydon platform allocation 21/06/24

    Hi all, I'm at East Croydon this morning and have noticed that the platform allocations are not as per normal - it looks like all the terminators are using platform 3 (instead of 5) with all fast line trains using platforms 1 and 2. Any ideas why?

    I think the B9 enviros were only temporary members of the fleet hence they weren't repainted

    Does the East Grinstead Branch really need 8 carriage trains?

    I think they are referring to Reigate and East Grinstead services being the only ones to Victoria from that side (platforms 4-6). I am a regular user of East Grinstead trains and find that often they are very busy, especially at weekends where 8 car trains only just cope!
