Does anyone reckon services tomorrow are going to be affected? Need to get to St Pancras for the Eurostar to Brussels

Afternoon everyone, I've got an Interrail reservation for Euronight Train 50462 from Budapest Keleti to Stuttgart Hbf on 21 September. On Saturday I got an email saying this train would be terminating short at Munich Ost due to engineering works, and that I'd need to get another train from...

Hello everyone, I've noticed quite a few railtours this year are being run with "1970s Mk2 carriages". Does anyone know if the air conditioning has been replaced on these? I've been on a few air-conditioned Mk2s with broken air-conditioning in the summer and it's unpleasant. I'd rather not...

Thanks for your replies everyone. I planned on travelling by train from Krakow to Zakopane after reading an article in the Guardian about it - but based on what you've posted (like problems with connecting buses) I'll go on the coach around the Tatras. I'd rather not risk arriving in Zakopane...

As the title of this thread suggests, in January I'll need to travel from Southampton to Manchester, departing on a Friday afternoon and returning Sunday afternoon. Ideally I'd rather not spend 4 hours on a Voyager. Does anyone think Avanti's reliability problems will have improved by then?

It's not helped that the A36 from Bath to Southampton is largely single carriageway and usually isn't any quicker than the train. Is there a reason why GWR is struggling so much with unit availability at the moment? Is it just due to a lack of spare parts, lack of fitters, financial...

Good morning, Tomorrow, I will be travelling with a Cheshire Day Ranger, starting from Crewe. I have come up with a rough plan which includes visiting Chester city centre, looking around Liverpool, heading to Manchester along the Chat Moss route (one I haven't covered) and then back to Crewe...

Good evening, As the thread title suggests, passenger coaches in former Soviet republics (Russia, Ukraine, Latvia, Kazhakstan etc) as well as a few states allied to the USSR at one point or another (China, North Korea, Mongolia) have corrugated body sides, such as this Was there any particular...
