Evening all, My mother in law needs to travel to Par from Huntingdon leaving on wednesday 11th Feb and returning on Sunday 15th Feb. She is flexible with times as long as she isn't getting a hideously early train or getting to destination at stupid o'clock. Does anyone have advice on a way...

I have a table seat so I will take my charger. :-) thank you

Fair enough thank you. I wasn't desperate, it was just to decide whether to chuck my charger in my bag.

I was aware that when RTT gives a type it is just what the schedule is timed for. I was under the impression that the electric loco/diesel loco(which I know is also used for steam) was accurate as that was used to stop electric locos being sent up non electrified lines.

Morning, I was having a look at RTT to see if there was anything worth popping out for at lunchtime and came across the following. http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/O31077/2014/09/16/advanced It is down as an electric locomotive. Would this be correct and if so what is it likely to...

I believe things go there for wheel turning, steam goes there too.
