I have lots of really nostalgic memories of getting winner 158s at Bingley.This weeks trip was routing London - York - West Yorkshire - Manchester - Stoke - London.
I was mainly visitng new stations, so had to stick to my carefully crafted timetable.

If that means you need 800 033 as well, that one is finishing up at Stoke Gifford tonight ( paired with 800 010 ) so keep an eye on the diagrams which start from there tomorrow...04/12/2022
800034 (I'll be honest, I didn't know this one existed. I thought it only went up to 032)
I'll check where it is when I'm next out on the trains.If that means you need 800 033 as well, that one is finishing up at Stoke Gifford tonight ( paired with 800 010 ) so keep an eye on the diagrams which start from there tomorrow...

Yes, did a West Yorkshire Train Rover for an uncomplicated local(ish) trip during these short days. I don't need a great deal from the area so I was lucky with which 195's were about.Good haul from my neck of the woods I see
Great!Yes, did a West Yorkshire Train Rover for an uncomplicated local(ish) trip during these short days. I don't need a great deal from the area so I was lucky with which 195's were about.
Now down to needing 1 x 195/0 and 1 x Class 333. Maybe next time!

Yes, it was a better day than I'd expected. Penultimate 350/2 was nice.Good haul!
It could be cheaper to ride the trains all day in some circumstances!A good haul, but if the trading of heating money was a serious comment![]()
It could be cheaper to ride the trains all day in some circumstances!
A travelcard from here with railcard discount is under £10. A 2 kWh heater would cost 70p an hour with electricity at ~35p/kWh, so cheaper if running heating for 14 hours a day.
On my recent visit to Bradford with a West Yorkshire Day Saver I saw the same guard a couple of times and he did ask if I was saving money by not putting the heating on at home.
Don't get your hopes up for that....they're noisy, cramped and rather rough-riding. To paraphrase the handle of one of our regular contributors on TransPennine Express matters....gimme a 373 any day! (Come to think of it, though, the 374s have better and more spacious toilets!)I am guaranteed some red penning on the 9th of January when I do my first ever 374![]()
