Doesn tlook like it was much fuin on that crossing. Had some rough ones over from Dover but nothing that sent anything flying https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-south-scotland-46604175 There is a video in there too

Mod Note: Posts #1 - #23 originally in this thread. How and why do you think a minibus is restricted to 50MPH? Are you aware of the legal stance on such things or are you just lacking in knowledge on the subject?

Rather good idea https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-45656560 Some videos on the link provided also

So I dont a search and this was the only thread about the sidings there adn they were used whilst the works at Blackpool North were going on. Ive been spending much time up in the north west in Preston & Blackpool Airport but this morning I noticed the lights were on in the sidings but nothing...

Can anyone shed any light on these and why they have them rather than going into preston. Seems an odd place to terminate a train on this line

Source Should be interesting to see some of the designs outside of the S stock variant that I believe Bombardier will provide

I pass through Norwood nearly every day now and I've always wondered if there were ever any services that actually left there and went to Selhurst through the depot before the extra sidings were built? Obviously not possible now but would open up some interesting loop(ish) services

Sounds like fun http://www.kentonline.co.uk/sheerness/news/all-aboard-new-ferry-128665/

I see this is having a little trip out on southern metals on Saturday. Looks a good itinerary too. I'm down croydon way so hope I get to see it as was an effort to try and find it on rtt

I really couldnt find another thread on this so I guess make a main one. However was down there today for a bit of a bash on them and noticed 2565 was in test mode with signs up saying it still belonged to the makers and not to board(obviously some still tried to lol) and at East Croydon he...
