    [Planning] Class 314s in Glasgow

    Hi Folks, I'm taking advantage of the Virgin Seat Sale again for another day trip to Glasgow. I'd love to get my remaining four 314s seen. I know they're still out in force on the Cathcart group of lines, but have the feeling there's some other places they now operate in their twilight years...

    [Planning] Glasgow

    Hi Folks, In August I'll be taking advantage of Virgin's latest seat sale for a day trip to Glasgow. I'll be using a Roundabout ticket for some minor moves, but the main focus is to spot as many 314s as possible (with 318s and 320s as secondary targets). I've found this thread about the 314s...

    Into the Valley(s) 22/07/2015

    To Cardiff for a Valley Lines Day Explorer… Why Cardiff? It’s closer than Glasgow. :wink: The planning process revealed that the best ticket combination from Leamington Spa to Cardiff involves a split at Cheltenham, enabling anytime travel for third less than a through anytime ticket and only...

    The Metropolitan Shuttle Shuffle – 06/04/2014

    Back last year when Pathfinder announced the Buffer Puffer 11.0 and 11.1, one of the highlights was the rare opportunity to take the curve from Metropolitan Junction into Cannon Street. As this stretch of track’s banned to locos, it unsurprisingly got pulled from the itinery. The disappointment...
