    Sad news from Czechia as JHMD closes

    Sad to hear. I guess there's no chance of Sprava zeleznic (nation rail infrastructure owner) or CD getting involved. Hopefully local government can help, but sounds like it could be too costly for that.

    Montreux Oberland Bernois

    Nice articles and collection of images. Well done.

    The great little trains of Dresden

    Nice write up and pictures, I hadn't appreciated that Dresden has both of these so near by. I'll definitely be visiting them.

    Don Coffey cab ride video discussion

    60fps (on You Tube, anyway) looks unnaturally sped up on anything where I know how the speed should appear, such as footage of cars or trains. Ridiculously so. 50fps is a bit better. On video game footage 60fps is fine as there is no real world mk1 eyeball experience to compare it against.

    Don Coffey cab ride video discussion

    Wasn't another Chester to B'ham New Street, taken down not long after it went up?

    Don Coffey cab ride video discussion

    Poor picture quality due to being recorded with a potato, to get around having an electronic device in the cab?

    Don Coffey cab ride video discussion

    If this was a problem, I dread to think how many other responsibilities we can't trust Drivers to manage.

    Don Coffey cab ride video discussion

    I wouldn't give this too much thought. It'll be internal industry politics, at one level or another.

    Don Coffey cab ride video discussion

    Seems a bit odd to me, this route learning issue. Sounds like the kind of thing some genius in the messroom or divvy manager would come up with to discourage his enthusiasm, 'ya know, if some Driver watches your out of date videos and has an incident, they'll blame you and the HM Rail Inspector...

    BFI have a load of rail movies.

    I'd heard about this but hadn't yet checked it out. Thanks for the reminder! :)

    Royal train

    Boo, you spoilsport communist. :p Didn't she this year also take a First Capital Connect Class 365 up to King's Lynn on her way to Sandringham? She only got the 1st class 1/3rd of the carriage if I remember correctly, with minimal security.

    Connaught Tunnel, Woolwich

    Shock, horror... :roll: Even the BTP wouldn't care about this, I don't know why your taking issue with it.

    A Snowy Mixed Railway Environment Variety Photographs

    When you see pictures of a busy high street in newspapers, magazines, on television ect, do you think that the publisher/broadcaster has got the consent of every individual in the picture? Sticking to the same theory, when you photograph a train, do you get the consent of the driver if they...

    Snow - December '09

    I don't know if this is the 'done thing', but I thought it might be a good idea to have a general thread for people to post pictures (and galleries) of the network in this weekends snow. I'd hoped to go down to the South East tomorrow and see it for myself, but sadly it doesn't look like...
