Unless that’s their game plan (assuming there is one of course). They could interwork their Goole and York operations with the 401, 415 and 42, and, given the majority of their current network, EY probably have more of an appetite for the remaining rural operations than Arriva does given the...

How about the 401 between Selby and Goole? Cut back from the original Leeds-Selby-Goole route at deregulation, it's still running the same route between Selby Bus Station and Goole North Street to this day, by the same operator (West Riding aka Arriva Yorkshire) with the same route number...

Platform 6 at East Croydon is currently closed as the disused advertising hoardings adjacent to the new footbridge are now leaning onto the track.

You have to time your call on the remote gateline help points though. I see it at Oxted regularly where someone uses the remote help point on platform 2, their ticket is accepted and the gate opened for them, but other people in the exit queue then go through. Leaving you still the wrong side of...

The Leeds service was lost to Castleford because of the then upcoming Leeds clean air zone and to negate the need/cost to make Selby’s buses compliant. Selby instead gained the 408/409 Pontefract to Doncaster services from Castleford instead, but I understand these have mostly gone now.

Had a message on my local Facebook group (private group so can’t link to it) from some local councillors who’ve met with GTR and say that the 1920 Victoria to E Grinstead returns on 5th Sep.

The Hull Trains shuttle between Hull and Doncaster seems to be running via Goole so wonder if there are concerns with the swing bridge at Selby?

The drama continues, bridge strike at Ashurst so no more Uckfield trains today (Tue 12/7)

Not sure, however the inclusion of 377 and 171 does suggest Southern specific.

On a slightly related note, noticed that the wheelchair ramps at Hurst Green and Oxted have been re-labelled as 377/387/171 (my bold).

Retimed to depart 1712 to allow for comfort breaks.

A couple of years ago but on a class 166 leaving Redhill towards Reigate.

Southern have now sat down the E Grinstead line for the rest of the evening due to power supply failure between Sanderstead and Oxted.

I thought it was a basic CCTV camera that recorded video of the lights at the same time as the main crossing CCTV, so red light jumpers could be proved incorrect if they claimed the lights weren't showing. There's normally only one of these on one set of lights on each side of the crossing.

The landslip now appears to have got worse overnight last night and the line is closed south of Hurst Green again. There was a message on Southern’s website early this morning saying the line would be closed from Lingfield southwards from Sat 15 Feb until 2 March, with most trains reversing at...

Our house is just south of Hurst Green junction, and alongside the EG line. A train has just headed towards Lingfield.

Is the monitoring therefore a case of the equipment detecting an obstruction where there isn't one as opposed to it not detecting an actual obstruction?

They've recently moved the 4-8 car stops on the down platforms at Bromley South further towards Bickley. Station staff tell me that had problems with longer formations stopping short. Whilst I understand the reasons why, it now means it's only the very last door of a 4 car unit now stops...

Thanks guys Much appreciated -I'll sleep easier tonight! Darren

Hi all Booked this today via Southern's website and wondered if someone could check the fare for me as it doesn't seem right. I'm leaving MDW at 0756 on the High Speed to St. Pancras, then to Euston (ticket has the cross symbol so could use LU) for the 0940 to Crewe (and change there). The...
