You are correct - apologies. So here are all the in service but not in service units for today:
Light loco from Derby RTC to Derby LL for todays delivery has not happened yet (auto activated and 40 minutes late already) so looking unlikely but still time.
Cancelled.
Nearest District line
Possible debut imminent?
011 and 032 both working this evening
If it was in the siding nearest to the District line, that is the arrival road, so it had arrived from somewhere (via East Putney), probably from Clapham Yard.
Didn't want to appear pedantic, but correct, one of No's 1, 2 or 3 reception roads will have a different meaning to being stabled in one of the stabling sidings! Well noted.
It was with 038,515,518 & 525 in the block of sidings seen from district line end on.
It’s OT but I agree very much: that bloke on Platform 5 is a megalomaniac nincompoop
Even with everything allocated as it should be Reading/Weybridge services are still roughly 3 x 450 for every 4 x 701. Depending on what time of day and where you'll often see either all 450s or all 701s on Reading services.
SWR has long been a relative island of sanity in the Yellow Line Terror. Hope this isn't changing and that Mr AYLS is an isolated example.
My biggest question is how does he keep his voice shouting like that all day? It’s quite a feat. He should try being a boxing match announcer.
I think the differnce is that
hilarious but sadly very true
Of course if everyone remained behind the yellow line then announcements would no longer be required. It's summer, silly season and I am finding that almost every station has someone the wrong side of the line. Apparently it's a challenge for the traveling public.
So essentially, the progress with 345071 is a good sign that Alstom have got to grips with the issues at Litchurch Lane that afflicted Bombardier and their predecessors?
Just no concept of what suddenly stepping towards the platform edge might do to a driver's nerves! Part of the reason the yellow peril is there.
mia？
Military term - it means "missing in action"
As someone who is a yellow line shouter, (albeit not as far up as CLJ) I sympathise with you. I shouldn't have to shout nor do I want to, but I'd rather be seen to be keeping people safe should something happen and it was found on that occasion I wasn't shouting.
