Any views on how LNR will be tomorrow? I should probably show up to work..

Yes, have certainly appealed it (within the 250 characters I am allowed to write) I can imagine so many are put off by the process though.

This was aggravating, from Avanti: "Decision: Unsuccessful The intended leg from 18:14 LONDON EUSTON, scheduled to arrive at MILTON KEYNES CENTRAL at 18:51 could not be taken because the train arrived late. The alternative leg from 18:19 LONDON EUSTON left on time, scheduled to arrive at...

East-West between Bicester Village and Milton Keynes? :D

Thanks, looks like they couldn’t get the 57 attached on the country end so had to go south instead!

Today about 3.30pm I was on a walk just south of Cheddington near the railway line - I could hear a train rumbling southbound very slowly, sounding its horn every 5s I couldn’t see it due to the cutting. I believe it was 5Z14 which for some reason started at Cheddington then ran wrong side(?)...

Pretty sure you can see the Camp Hill line from within St Andrews (Birmingham City). Whether a train would actually be running during a match is anyone’s guess!

I just want to see departures as I walk into the station. Why was this so difficult for them to grasp?

It annoys me that they waste screen time with "Meet the manager on..." and "Engineering works in <3 months time>" messages, especially on the WH Smith side - I wonder if they do this to stop loitering, but when I'm just passing through it would be nice to actually see some content rather than...

I believe Euston has a good supplier of oversized display screens :)

You will probably remember the departures screen that used to be opposite the tube exit gate line. Why was it removed?* As I’ve said before, that passageway is criminally underused. They should allow platform 6-7 and 12-13 arrivals to walk around to the 8-11 gate line and use the ramp entrance...

there is so much space at Euston between and past the platform ends that could be usefully used.. why don't they use those for passenger flow? I'm sure the catering and bin trollies can fit around passengers

Isn’t it downhill back to Euston? :)

The use of “defendant’s” in the ruling is a bit grating

Apparently many passengers forced to walk back to Euston - that’s not acceptable either
