    GC refurb

    At least around May, I got an email with something about this around mid May. Don't know if people can view this? http://us5.campaign-archive1.com/?u=9d06cd87b6974e6f23d5280f5&id=96163e83ee&e=8e91a518bd

    The most stupid question you have been asked

    When I was working on board with East Coast I had someone ask me (on a HST) why the doors can't open after they're locked:?... I simply answered with "because it's locked" and they said "oh" and walked off! :lol:

    How old are GA's Mk3s?

    Best way I remember is East Midlands and Grand Central's, couldn't tell you which is which but they are definitely different!

    HT Class 180 Seating Plan

    I was going to post scanned copies of mine from when I worked for GC but remembered that I think the numbers are in different orders because when we got a 180 on loan from (East Coast then) we had to tell people to ignore the numbers on the seats but to look on the reservation cards. I could be...

    Grand Central advance tickets

    I'd say it's simply because they've sold out, if it's showing other days then yes I'd say they've gone. Also when contacting GC it's worth noting there is only once person to deal with every email, letter and phone call and also to deal with customers walking in. Until this goes to Cross Country...

    GC HST to BDI

    From what I've been told, there is no plans at all yet to use them regularly, but it was just to check stopping points and stepping distances.

    Offering to be a tester

    I don't think most developers ask on the forums for beta testers, at Pioneer Trains we approach people who we trust. Usually fellow developers

    The Great HST Cascade?

    Grand Central won't swap HSTs for 180s, I'm sure Wensley or Bosch can back me up on that! They would prefer to have a common fleet of Hsts and to strengthen them and the fact that the MPC for their HSTs are more than double the 180s :)

    Any news about the Chiltern Power-door Mk3s yet?

    They can't, it's an emergency door with no handle as such but a lever type thing behind glass. And there is no CDL panel there for them to despatch from!

    How do you get heaters turned off?

    The easter 142's have a switch in the cab behind the driver that turns the heating off in that coach

    Northern Ticket Machine - another rant!

    When the ticket machine at Hartlepool was installed it initially didn't give you the option of a Grand Central ticket and only the any route or East Coast tickets! Costing more than double on some tickets. Last week it was out of use on a Sunday so no other way of redeeming the tickets either as...
