    Potential Chiltern rolling stock cascade, once Mk5s are introduced?

    Thanks, that's answered my question. I did search myself but couldn't find anything either.

    Potential Chiltern rolling stock cascade, once Mk5s are introduced?

    Moderator note: Split from https://www.railforums.co.uk/threads/chiltern-mk5s-starting-2026-non-speculative-updates-thread.290448/ Apologies if this is the wrong thread. Unsure if this is accurate or not, but have read on Facebook on an article about EWR that the introduction of these MK5s will...

    Marston Vale line suspension over - FULL services start running 19/02/24

    Is it January 2024 that the full service resumes or later? The only publication I can see from LNWR states "early next year", whatever that is.

    Will Oxford-Bletchley when constructed be in the Network Railcard Area?

    Moderator note - split from: https://www.railforums.co.uk/threads/east-west-rail-ewr-oxford-bletchley-construction-progress.216561/ Anyone know if the route will be absorbed into the network railcard area? Given that both Oxford and Bletchley/MK are in it, it would seem rather daft if not.

    December 2023 Timetable Change

    Ah thanks. Is Saturday still solely 2tph? Assume it'll eventually be a full 3tph all day?

    Progress on Avanti West Coast's 805/807s Hitachi AT300 sets

    Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe one of the 3 Euston to Bham services per hour always did continue to Scotland pre COVID I think? Only ask as trying to recall how the timetable worked! About the 3 tph reinstatement, was that likely to be the December timetable change do you know or later?

    Progress on Avanti West Coast's 805/807s Hitachi AT300 sets

    Very true I suppose, didn't consider that!

    December 2023 Timetable Change

    Any news if Avanti plan on reintroducing the pre COVID 3tph Euston to Bham from Dec 23?

    Progress on Avanti West Coast's 805/807s Hitachi AT300 sets

    Are some Scottish services going to continue running via Bham as at present?

    Progress on Avanti West Coast's 805/807s Hitachi AT300 sets

    Apologies if this question has been covered in the thread already but I understand that some 807s will be used on Euston to Bham? Any particular reason for this? And where will the subsequently displaced pendolinos go? Can't imagine going round the bends at Weedon bolt upright.

    Avanti Class 805/807

    Morning all Anyone know if Avanti's new sets are going to be displacing any pendolino diagrams (if so where are those pendolinos going) or are they solely going to be running routes that the voyagers do/did with partial non electrified sections? Thanks!

    East-West Rail (EWR): Oxford-Bletchley construction progress

    Apologies if this has been answered elsewhere in these 40 pages, but was the commencement of revenue service looking to be Spring 2024? I've seen a variety of dates mentioned across different sources. Looking forward to using it as it will be a really useful link from near MK where I live, back...

    Real Time Trains and 390 Diagrams

    Hi, In hindsight, perhaps opposite was not the correct word to have used. To keep it as simple as possible: I understood the post made by Mag_seven to mean that all workings timed for a 390 or a Voyager are also allocated/diagrammed as such. Whereas in your post, I did not get the impression...

    Real Time Trains and 390 Diagrams

    I have always thought the same. Just out of interest (not at all doubting you), how do know this to be the case, because your answer is the exact opposite to what yorkie has said? Thanks.
