Can Anyone tell me the unit(s) running 1A44 London Victoria - Brighton via Gatwick Airport, 1200 ex-VIC (21/12/2015) Cheers, Matt

I was thinking hypothetically about the possibility of taking out the electric motors and replacing with VP185s or similar. Though my other thought, these surely wouldn't operate in full formation, Eurostar trains are known for being bloody long.

Doing that removes a change. Whilst the route may be longer, the average commuter/long distance leisure traveller won't mind as it means they don't have to get out into the cold.

With the introduction of the Class 374, some 373 sets will inevitably be displaced. To my knowledge, only the eight "North of London" sets can be used on Network Rail, though I may be wrong. I can see some being displaced to SNCF, naturally. I could also see a gap in the market for longer...

End doors/windows make it look almost like some sort of freakish early prototype for VT/XC's Voyager fleet...

Okay, thanks. I guess 1 and 2 are essentially in case you miss a signal, and incase you don't hear AWS/Fire Alarm/Other?

Hi. I was wondering what conditions are like for drivers, freight or passenger. I have a few key questions; but any answers are fantastic. - Can you send a text message whilst driving? - Can you listen to music? - Do you have the common things you would find in an office job, like being...

To quote greaterwest, "pics or it didn't happen"

Ahahahaha! --- old post above --- --- new post below --- Okey dokey, all on the 22nd and 23rd are FGW trains, I can't remember the exact routes for each off the top of my head. 24th, the first one is a FGW NDL service, the last two are SWT services (split in half by a bus)

There's one at Fratton TCD, you can see from most of the FTN platforms but I've never watched it in use. I believe it washed the Desiros and SWT diesel. Also fairly certain that's where toe 444 derailed earlier in the year.

Hi, Watching a Londonist Londonist vid about Heathrow express and noticed this; a European plug socket in the cab of the 332. Any ideas/explanations? I know they were built in Europe but you'd have thought Siemens/CAF would have thought about it being in the UK?

Hi, If anyone could find me the following, that'd be much appreciated. 22/05/15 - 1F28 22/05/15 - 2M14 22/05/15 - 1L90 22/05/15 - 2O52 23/05/15 - 1V35 23/05/15 - 1C04 23/05/15 - 1O72 23/05/15 - 2E24 23/05/15 - 1A84 23/05/15 - 2O46 24/05/15 - 1O76 24/05/15 - 1P39 24/05/15 - 2Z37 I realise...

Evening, I might have left it a little late but I was wondering if I could get the unit number(s) for 1P27 tomorrow; the 10:30 WAT/PMH. Thanks in advance :)

I've got these TVM tickets from NCM earlier in the year. I've also got a few "new style" child tickets if you want those as well. The image probably needs splitting up for putting in the gallery, I'm happy for you to do that or put them in as a set. 9.99.003
