    To what are passengers entitled if a train is too full to board?

    GTR offer Delay Repay if the train you wanted to catch is impossible to board due to overcrowding. I assume they'd check CCTV to verify any claims, and payouts are the same as if the train was cancelled.

    Stock At Weekends On GN Side

    Thank you for the reply, yes, I thought it wouldn't be permanent. Hadn't even thought about the SDO issue at stations like Meldreth northbound. The train I was on was timed for a 365 on a Sunday, but a 700 turned up. Having checked its future workings, it was on 2Cxx Cambridge-King's Cross the...

    Stock At Weekends On GN Side

    Hi all, I was just wondering how they've allocated the stock at the moment on weekends on the GN side between Cambridge and King's Cross. I overheard some staff expecting a 365 to turn up to operate a Great Northern service, but a 700 did, which seemed confusing given that they were likely to...

    TfW Mapping Errors

    Haven't they missed out Pontypridd too? Edit: They have from the main map but it's there (and spelled correctly)

    Arriva Trains Wales - it’s the final countdown

    http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/V63755/2018/10/14/advanced This is apparently the last ATW service, interestingly it's delayed to beyond 2am, so who knows which operator's in charge then!

    17:21 King's Cross to Cambridge on 21 May 2018 - cancelled or not?

    http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/W64642/2018/05/21/advanced According to this link, the train didn't run, as there are no reports from any of the timing points, and it still says 'Starts here', so RealTimeTrains didn't get the memo that it'd been cancelled, but it can be seen that it didn't...

    GN Class 717

    To me, the windows are nowhere near as angled, and these are manufactured by Siemens, not Hitachi like the 385s are.

    OHLE Damage at Alexandra Palace (01/05)

    The only service I can see on OpenTrainTimes in the Alexandra Palace area is 2V84, a 313 from King's Cross to Welwyn GC, https://www.opentraintimes.com/schedule/G79820/2018-05-01. Not definitely this train but could well be, as it'd still be running on AC at Ally Pally. Edit: Seems like I'm...

    Great Northern Class 700 diagrams?

    Do we have any idea about Saturday diagrams and when these are likely to begin? Also, is there any increase planned for Sunday diagrams too?

    Great Northern Class 700 diagrams?

    The same unit seems to be going from Hornsey to CBG and back quite often. I spotted it at about 1pm a couple of Tuesdays ago just beside Platform 8. Believe this may be a 700 run on Tuesday http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/N09852/2017/12/20/advanced. Also, there was a unit parked up on Plat...
