What was your favourite moment of 2018 regarding the UK railways? One of my favourite moment s for example was when the GWR reached broadway.
My first trip over into the continent was this year so my first one of those for sure, a 5 day interrail back in June with @cactustwirly, taking me all over and seeing sights you just can't experience over here.

In the summer, I had an afternoon to get from Munich to Mannheim. I had an ICE ticket but broke my journey in Ulm for dinner and a walk by the Danube. The next train to Stuttgart was an Intercity. I had a whole coach to myself, with a metre wide drop window, a warm evening, sunset and a line that wiggled up a valley.

Yep! Certainly a highlight from the UK point of view.Has to be the loco-hauled services on the Windermere branch. Dreadful!
Certainly a contender for funniest moment of the year, along with other IEP farces like the multiple hour Hele & Bradninch one.The IEP tearing wires down.
