    WMR Class 196 Build and Implementation

    Is there any plan to get them working? What's the hold up? Thanks for the reply btw!

    WMR Class 196 Build and Implementation

    Have 113 and 114 entered service yet?

    WMR Class 196 Build and Implementation

    Yep, on one of the middle coaches.

    Class 730 LNR & WMR Delivery/test Updates

    Hooray! So when are we getting them in the Cross City? Short forms are growing tedious.

    WMR Class 196 Build and Implementation

    Seen 196109 today at Northfield with an unfortunate livery addition. :frown:

    West Midlands Class 323 - the final countdown

    The 730s haven't entered service on the CrossCity line yet.

    Class 730 LNR & WMR Delivery/test Updates

    That's not really true. I sad on the middle seat in a 323 today on the train home, and there were two adults next to me. It wasn't that bad.

    HS2 update Transport Select Committee 10/1/24

    Just like Thameslink 2000.

    New Brent Cross West (Thameslink) station

    That bears Birmingham New Street.

    Class 701 'Aventra' trains for South Western Railway

    Most of that was wasted in a willie waving contest with ASLEF.

    University (Birmingham) Station Rebuild

    Well I'm going to have to eat my words because I just drove past in Vincent Drive and saw three blokes in high viz behind the hoardings doing something, though I couldn't tell what.

    University (Birmingham) Station Rebuild

    I never see anyone working there and I go through there most days. It wouldn't surprise me if the Camp Hill Line stations opened before this, even with the naughty badgers.

    West Midlands Class 323 - the final countdown

    They're shortforming, some 3 cars at rush hour.

    When the slow line becomes the fast line

    I wondered why there was a 197 on the slows yesterday!

    Ayr Station Hotel Fire 28/05/2023 and now on fire again 25/09/2023

    I don't think it has any bricks, it's all concrete. :lol: This is actually one of the reasons it's proposed to be demolished, it's got concrete cancer and would take a fortune to fix. It would also still be a monstrosity, which is why I'm baffled that anyone sees anything worth saving in it...

    Ayr Station Hotel Fire 28/05/2023 and now on fire again 25/09/2023

    There are people in Birmingham now trying to prevent the demolition of Smallbrook Queensway, one of the worst brutalist carbuncles this city has to offer. The heritage lobby is completely out of control and listing needs to be massively curtailed.

    Class 730 LNR & WMR Delivery/test Updates

    We're the ones who are losing our trains on the XC, how come Walsall - Wolvo gets them first? Three car diagrams are starting to multiply and it ain't pleasant.

    Conwy, Penmaenmawr and Llanfairfechan now compulsory stops?

    One day they'll work out that if no trains run, no one can be hurt on the railway anymore. The person who realises that will get a run of gongs.

    Merseyrail legacy fleet updates (Class 507/508)

    It's not like they had years with the trains sitting around in sidings to plan it.

    East Kilbride/Barrhead electrification updates

    Is the Larkfield South Curve being electrified?
