21875mi from me, i'm third somehow!

 

[Techniquest]

You're both making me jealous!

 

[noddy1878]

Just updated my mileage for the first time in ages and I'm up to 9795 for the year so far (but this excludes underground mileage as I have yet to work that out!). I'm surprised that this puts me as high as it has at 11th!

 

[dcd]

Anyone know the direct distance from St Pancras to Avignon TGV please.

Eurostar say it is 1166 km

 

[jnjkerbin]

Haven't been here for a while but I'm now up to 6856 miles for 2015 and with various plans for the next week, it looks as though August may be my most productive month ever

 

[Techniquest]

I've got my RM back now, although I only have my phone to use for access to it which is irritating to do such a big job with. So until I can source a new laptop then I won't be getting on with the mammoth task of adding two months of journeys to it.

While I think about it, anyone able to tell me what Ebbw Vale Town to Pye Corner comes in at?

 

[fishquinn]

I have finally got my mileage for 2015 done (except the NET). It comes in at 11074.75.

 

[crehld]

While I think about it, anyone able to tell me what Ebbw Vale Town to Pye Corner comes in at?

Western Sectional Appendix puts this at 17m46ch.

Woah, I was estimating 8 miles so that is a nice surprise! Many thanks

Yep. Pye Corner is at 2m21ch and Ebbw Vale Town is at 19m67ch

 

[fishquinn]

I am now on 11759, which is 10th place.

 

[hassaanhc]

The trips in the last 2 weeks have now put me on 8540 miles 71 chains

As I am not going anywhere today, my final total for August stays on 1147 miles 44 chains. The 1004 miles 18 chains on National Rail is the first time since January that I have exceeded 1000 miles in that category.

[507021]

I'm now on 9,031 miles and 5 chains which for now puts me in 18th place

 

[alex17595]

Anybody know where I can get mileage for Switzerland?

 

[35B]

Anybody know where I can get mileage for Switzerland?

Use the Schweers and Wall atlas, it has distances marked.

 

[postye]

Total mileage for August comes in at 3514, my most productive month of the year, which puts me onto 18868 for the year.

I've overtaken my total for last year by 400 miles and I'm around 5000 miles short of my target for the year, but unless there's a change in circumstances (i.e. I get a job) there wont be any further big days out, so I'll have to stick to some Travelcard bashes.

I'm hoping I can maybe just make the top 10, or at least beat last years 15th place.

 

[Minilad]

I really need to separate my work mileage from my allowable mileage to be able to enter.
My current total is just over 80000 all together. I would say my work mileage is around half of that

 

[causton]

I would enter but I have the ultimate evil of including bus journeys in my mileage shown below ... also, I may fall foul of the "work" rule as I include journeys where I am sent from the station I work at to other stations to deliver replacement computer parts etc, so that might not be allowed

 

[43167]

Just added the miles from my FOW and ALR bash last month if anyone wondering why i've just shot up about 20 places.

 

[Techniquest]

I'll no doubt be flying up the table soon too, once I have time to get cracking with the many journeys I still have to add to my RM pages. If there's time on Sunday I'll start work on it, but that relies on a WiFi signal being accessible at Birmingham Airport.

I might have my correct total on the table by Christmas

 

[alex17595]

My Swiss rail atlas arrived today and I have gained 702 miles (If I calculated right) Up to 6025 now Excluding LU.

 

[56087]

Don't count units for haulage / mileage (never have done), as of 05/09/15 loco-hauled mileage for 2015 is 12,989m 60ch.

 

[crispy1978]

Does anyone have mileage for

LDS-TOD
TOD-ACR

please?

Thanks in advance!

Which way from Leeds to Todmorden as I believe trains can go either via Bradford or via Dewsbury

And railmiles gives Todmorden to Accrington as 14 miles 75 chains

Thanks. It was via Bradford.

 

[jnjkerbin]

I'm now on 7310 for the year, with August being my best month on record, bringing in 1517m 55ch, thanks to a holiday in Shropshire and a visit to family in Dorset.

 

[dcd]

Just added 228 from a trip to London now at 13119 and all leisure travel, no commuting. Should jump again in the next fortnight with the Border Reiver and a trip by Eurostar on the direct from London to Avignon and back. Plus a trip to Chesterfield for the the Barrow Hill LNS Gala

 

[Techniquest]

Sleeves rolled up, check.
Large coffee made, check.
Tablet on charge, check.
Tunes on, check.

I'm finally getting on with the huge task of updating my RailMiles, at least 3 weeks later than I intended to. All the way back to 29th June I had to go to back to for tram moves.

Thanks must go to crehld and bb21 for their most appreciated help with mileage charts and mileage lookups in this thread so far. I do have a query though, and I'm surprised it's not been asked yet:

Edinburgh to Waverley to Tweedbank, looks to be at least 30 miles but I suspect a fair bit more than that. Also:

Tweedbank to Galashiels Galashiels to Stow, Stow to Gorebridge, Gorebridge to Edinburgh are the other figures I need. Thanks in advance to whoever can provide the answers!

 

[gordonthemoron]

aside from the regular weekly trips, I'm expecting the following to increase my total substantialy:

MK-Edinburgh return
MK-Berlin-Munich-MK
