Not much more than there already is. There is a relatively small amount of route duplication between the two operators, the few cases where identical routes were run have mostly been scrapped as Transport for Cornwall becomes more joined together. As long as those routes provided exclusively by...

Routes 88 and 2 are already in use in the TFC network. I can't see the T and U markers going anywhere as they very much simplify how the bus network works for the major hubs.

From my experience, TfL staff at nearby stations that connect to NR are accustomed to passenger confusion re connecting via Farringdon. It really is far too easy if you're unfamiliar with the station to not realise that when you arrive on a Thameslink service you're not actually separated from...

Thankfully their launch event was yesterday (I was on site the day before for work), so plenty of news now coming out about it! https://www.mining.com/cornish-lithium-opens-uks-first-low-emission-lithium-plant/

Correct, it's the Trelavour part they're most interested in rail use for. The capacity is actually 10,000 tonnes per year. The processing facility there has already been constructed and uses a building complex with an existing rail line going into it - just needs a couple small lengths of track...

The lithium industry being built up in the shadow of the clay pits is keen to use the rail infrastructure both for material import and export.

Does that mean St Austell (PL25), Cornwall's largest town, is actually in Devon?

Unfortunately not quite that simple. These timetables apply only to Tactical Training Areas (TTAs), which are three relatively small parts of the very large UK Low Flying System. The Mach Loop is not within a TTA. TTAs are marked with a (T) suffix on this map

Nice vid, but for accuracy's sake she was down here for the decommissioning of HMS Ocean rather than the naming of a ship. I got off the GWR HST service that arrives into PLY just before 11 so got caught up in all of the police around the station. Sadly as would be expected all the places where...

Exit polls indicate that Owen won in the under-24, Scottish and pre-2015 members categories.

From near my house over 12 miles away. Smoke trail streaks right across the sky. Looks like a very nasty fire...

On the subject of thefts, a photographer that I follow is covering the games for Team USA. He's already heard about over $60,000 worth of camera gear being stolen, and bags were apparently being taken from the photographer's area during the opening ceremony.

We do make our own warheads.
