    Trivia: Trains that have/had dual mode capabilities but run/ran on one mode most of the time

    Does the hourly Norwich - Cambridge/Stanstead service also run on electric south of Ely?

    December 2026 Timetable Change

    I know, the whole core TL timetable is based on 15/30 minute frequencies, none at 10/20

    December 2026 Timetable Change

    yes, but both tube lines are totally within the built up Greater London area, say 100% housing coverage. Elstree and Radlett are outside the GLA boundary and whilst sizeable in themselves I cant see that they justify 6tph off peak. Mill Hill Bwy is within London but anyone living to the westside...

    December 2026 Timetable Change

    I dont have access to any data, but arent they more than likely carting around fresh air north of London? If so they need to be binned. 4tph offpeak is enough surely.

    Northern Saturday timetables

    Looking at some Northern tables (current and from May), what is the logic in running the same Monday to Friday peak service on a Saturday? As just 2 examples, take table 33, the Harrogate line, https://timetables.fabdigital.uk/nrt/may2026/Table%20033.pdf or equally table 34 the Ilkley line...

    Ashley Down station construction updates

    New stations are always a positive thing to be welcomed, but I would be interested to know what is the target market? As far as I can see it is located in a low density housing area and has no obvious destination appeal other than the college. As a point of origin, to where will people travel...

    December 2023 Timetable Change

    The bulk of the Network Rail Dec 2023 NRT tables are now available for preview here https://timetables.fabdigital.uk/nrt/dec2023/ There are only about 30 left to do which are the ones where the data is still in a state of flux, or not available at all, and mainly affects Northern and...

    December 2023 Timetable Change

    It isnt for anyone at NR to anticipate this, it is my job as the contracted editor and I am on the case of what will be required in due time. The reason that Normanton and Sherburn in Elmet are not in the station bank is because no service has a public time at them, all times are currently shown...

    December 2023 Timetable Change

    Attached is the 1st draft of table 039 in the December NRT, but as always at this early stage it WILL change before final publication

    Swanley

    because that table in isolation is not the one with the full service from Swanley to London, nor is table 3a

    not true, this is the Swanley to London table 7 which has both arr and dep rows

    Taxi 'improvements' at Winchester

    Same thing at Torquay. Arrived there last Saturday afternoon, went to front of station for a taxi, none on 'rank'. The word Taxi still clearly painted on road surface but covered over on overhead sign. Assumed because a trainload had just arrived that they had all gone off, so with others...

    The WTT in its new form

    I am the creator/editor of the NRT, within Fabrik, on behalf of Network Rail. That product is independent of the WTT for which Fabrik have no brief nor responsibility as the two are unconnected. I will look into why you have not received a reply from Fabrik, however it would simply repeat what I...
