Mileage Competition 2013

[Trainfan344]

Being pedantic, but it was concluded a few years back that voluntary work on preserved lines does not count towards this competition.

TP

Damn, there go my plans to rack up a mile everyother weekend.

 

[High Dyke]

Anyone got the mileages for the Blackpool Trams?
.

Total mileage is 11 miles. Soemone has done an FOI request, but is still awaiting a response from the Borough Council.

 

[trentside]

I'm now up to 2561mi 17ch for this year. In both January and February I've fallen just short of my total for 2012, and it looks likely I'll do the same for March. I did only manage to travel 291 miles last April, however, so stand a good chance of beating that.

Thanks, but I knew the total, it's the intermediates that I'm after. I wish I'd used the GPS on my phone now, didn't think of it at the time.

You might have a long wait. I have an FoI request with them for the same thing and it is already 6 days overdue.

I'm finally off the mark for 2013

A highly unoriginal total of 149mi 39ch - Bath Spa to Thorpe Bay via the Hammersmith & City line :roll:

 

[Techniquest]

All got to start somewhere! Quite, I need to get my totals flying up a bit too, can't wait to get on a proper bash again on Monday and a week on Saturday

 

[43167]

If anyone wondering why I've shot up the table into the top 6, Ive been on a weeks all-line doing a mix of easter diversions, winner track in Cambridgshire/Essex and winner units.

 

[D841 Roebuck]

Just scraped into four figures, with a trip to the Norway Open.

Bonus new shack (Rainhill) as well.

 

[dcd]

Sorry to be a pain but can someone give me these mileages or tell me how to get them myself without Rail Mileage Engine as I cannot find the correct descripitions.

King's Cross to Baker Street (Hammersmith & City)
Baker Street to Marylebone (Bakerloo)
Elephant & Castle to Waterloo (Bakerloo)

Thanks in advance for any help

 

[Ivo]

You can still use Railmiles if you know how...

...and this excellent data from bb21 gives you the exact information you need. All the appropriate station names for LUL are shown.

Using this, I can tell you that:

King's Cross to Baker Street (Hammersmith & City) = 1mi 39ch
Baker Street to Marylebone (Bakerloo) = 0mi 25ch
Elephant & Castle to Waterloo (Bakerloo) = 1mi 04ch

 

[dcd]

Thanks Ivo and bb21, I shan't have to ask again.

Went round Strathclyde to get the remaing 3 SPT 320's and 4 170's which then took me well over the 1,000 mile mark (previous total 981 miles) to 1127 miles.

 

[trentside]

I'm now up to 4371mi 16ch for the year so far.

I managed 343mi 17ch in April and 900mi 67ch so far for May, with more due to be added over the course of this week. I've now largely completed the suburban services in South London and am about to tidy up a few bits in Yorkshire which should hopefully bring me over 1000 miles for May.

 

[starrymarkb]

Just added Schönefeld-Leipzig via Berlin Hbf and back for a nice 250ish miles - means I'm not bottom any more

 

[Trainfan344]

Shall add up my mileage for my Anglia Plus trip last weekend, plus a trip out to Norwich this weekend.

 

[Techniquest]

Still got a lot of Tube moves to add from last week yet, as well as fixing mileages for some of the moves on the mainline, so I haven't got my figures on here updated yet. I'll get there eventually, and I could do it today but I've got a lot of other stuff to do today, ahead of a week off to Ireland

 

[12CSVT]

Have updated my milage for the first time in about 2 months - and rapidly closing in on 20,000 miles for the year !

 

[starrymarkb]

Am working out Tram mileages with G-maps pedometer.

You mean something like this?

 

[starrymarkb]

If it were in the UK then yes

 

[Trainfan344]

[High Dyke]

Picked a bad day to be in London (25th May). Still managed just over 75 miles on LUL.
