How far south would an Edinburgh guard sign?

Islam is not a race

Corbridge is a hell of a lot smaller than Halty!!

I see all the moaning about Pacers. Typically the Newcastle - Carlisle runs are 60% 156 and 40% 142 (if not more 156). They really aren't that bad; especially not to not go somewhere in case you do get one. 2tph sounds really promising - however what we need is newer stock (perhaps another...

Prudhoe is another one. Southerner-style auto announcer says it as "Pr-ood-hoe" where it's one of two, "Prud-ho" or simply "Prudda" (if you're Geordie).

2N40 1528 Carlisle - Middlesbrough 2N56 1940 Carlisle - Middlesbrough As well as 2N45 1616 Nunthorpe - Carlisle.

Not just on the services mentioned above. A few weeks ago there was loads of £9.90 (with 16-25 railcard) advance singles from both Newcastle and Carlisle to London, slotting around the peak trains quite nicely. However now they've been replaced with £25+ (VTEC) or £37 (VTWC) fares for the same...

There's the Sky1 documentary about East Coast trains; sometimes repeated on Pick TV or Sky2. Otherwise the Tube is a good watch, most episodes available on Youtube.

It was only Aberdeen and Inverness services (with the exception of a Newcastle - Edinburgh 'shuttle') which were diverted; the rest being started/terminated at Newcastle or Berwick. For the record, the following ran via Carlisle: 1S03, 1F05 (above mentioned shuttle), 1E11, 1E13, 1S11...

You'd still have to go through Leeds first.

Is it? Even when said locos may be away with other disruption or out of service or no/displaced traincrew? Wind your neck in!

I was quite surprised to not see any interviews with angry (sorry, furious) commuters saying that they pay enough for their season ticket already and the company are taking their custom for granted, that sort of stuff :)

Also to add to the above, have a check on RTT and see if it's pathed as "Diesel Multiple Unit" or "Class 350/4" :)

Middlesbrough from Redcar!

I personally would have said Cowlairs bank! (Shudder)...

Glasgow Queen Street... just meh! One of the best must be Newcastle from the south (King Edward bridge) though.
