How useful albeit disappointingly prosaic!

Zoomed in. OMG.

Ah, got you, thank you. "Service gains coaches here" is a bit inaccurate then!

I travelled the Up Night Riviera last night. RealTime Trains says that whilst I was asleep, there was some shenanigans at Reading with two trains being combined?! Main Train: 1A50 2145 Penzance to London Paddington Departing on 14th March 2024 "Extra" Train: 0A50 0349 Reading to Reading...

Thank you

Sure, this is the Pullman on RTT. It was due to arrive in Plymouth at 1612. In fact it diverted via Bristol and then got cancelled at Exeter.

I'm on the Pullman 1303 Paddington to Plymouth. We are being held for an indeterminate period due to a broken train at Thatcham. The broken down train appears to be 1K12 387156 1205 Paddington to Newbury (link is to RealTime Trains), which has been cancelled at Thatcham. Does anybody have any...

Thank you

SMTH = Safety Management... what, please? Thank you

I always wondered why the WHL had 156s! Thank you, I mean something new.

Cheers for this It is something that the wider disability rights community is aware of, it has registered in people's heads the blatant difficulty and discrimination this causes. #EustonWeHaveAProblem I'll re-raise to see if somebody would take a case.

LNER stating that the 1835 North from King's Cross will be the first one to leave - presumably back on the ECML. https://twitter.com/LNER/status/1733895239331451194 1702231718 Ah, though now down as "delayed" https://twitter.com/g_uk_notts/status/1733911305323499902?t=t9qSsZyP06AEqP43MUhfXQ&s=19

Yes. LNER website 1702201370 The frequency of significant overhead line equipment failure on the ECML is troubling me, and doubtless many others. Is this an indication that there's a major problem that requires significant renewal? People tell me (e.g. an East Coast driver) that it was done...

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-cumbria-67587775 As a wheelchair user often left without my wheelchair or my body being secured on such coaches, I do wonder what would have happened if I was unsecured on that one. I hope all involved are as okay as possible and recuperate soon.

Really. About the only criticism I've had is that I said it would be a "security incident" - phraseology with a specific meaning I wouldn't use in a similar situation again. Other than that, I struggle to see any "pretty poor" language on this video or any other. I'm never abusive to railway...

On 1P93 TPE between Mirfield and Leeds. GBRF engineering train 6U87 has failed across the points at Altofts Junction, thus blocking the Normanton to Woodlesford curve AND the Normanton to Castleford line. After some planning, driver changed ends and is taking us back towards Huddersfield. He...

I totally get that it needs permission off the signaller to move towards the red signal, a clear understanding between all involved, the guard to do six bells, platform staff to prevent people running towards the train and to mark the position the driver should go to etc. It takes a lot of...

I was in a meeting with LNER management today, about other things. During the meeting said manager got the report through from the Train Manager. He didn't have the opportunity to read it there and then, but he will read and digest it and get back to me. Safe to say that management right up to...

Agree - and its enforcement mechanisms. I think there may be a possibly of getting the Office of Rail and Road to take action under TFW's Accessible Travel Policy. Potentially.

I don't think one could bring a discrimination case because of the way the law is constructed. The construction or choice of Rail vehicles is specifically exempted from the duty to not discriminate or not make reasonable adjustments. As long as the vehicles are either NTSN-PRM compliant or have...
