Yes I know, and that is why I have turned them off, because I don't want someone in the goverment saying "people are forgetting common sense lets make everyone's phones be really loud", even now I'm still hearing people saying their phone is going off and it's well into the night now.

These services also run as Weymouth-Gloucester, and there are also 158s on Worcester Foregate St - Bristol Not sure if this is covered in the above, but worth noting the 1tpd each way that go Queen St High Level - Springburn - Low Level - Yoker - then onwards as normal (and same in reverse)...

I don't care if they have them on or not, if news is important it'll get to me when it matters, being told common sense fire tips is not important. I just don't want them to have the ability to decide I'm not allowed to sleep by blaring a loud noise from my phone, which is always right by my bed.

I consider it a mis-use because to me during extreme heat and little rain not starting fires on moors feels like common sense. If one happened I'd know pretty quickly anyway given how quickly this thread popped up and the fact the rest of my family got them, if something was actually serious...

Looking up what you mean by Stourbridge (how have I not heard about that!) yes absolutely an alert should've gone out to people in the area there to warn them they may need to be evacuated and to be cautious of the fire. The whole country did not need to be disturbed by a couple barbeques

I've turned them off now, they don't get to disturb me because the grass is a bit dry

Correct, as far as I know (I'm mostly familiar with the West side) see below for queried ones: Not sure exactly how you're counting this, the section between Preston-Kirkham and Wesham has Sprinters (150/156) on Blackpool South services. Via Warrington Central sees 150s and 156s, e.g. today's...

It refers to a road specifically designed and built to cater for heavy cargo (usually mine) traffic. The "private" part is hopefully obvious!

Money Because ramps work fine in most of the country (and don't need electricity and moving parts). The train serves the several communities on the route that aren't on the main road.

I think the open access operators are most "on it" of any of the TOCs when it comes to checking tickets so I don't think it'd even be too much of an issue.

Correct in terms of rail, but it also is used in regards to cancelled rocket launches.

Probably worth noting it's pretty much certain to be formed of a Class 197, so most likely either 4 (2+2) or 5 (3+2 or 2+3) carriages.

I don't think there's anyway to know for certain. It's listed as dividing at Carmarthen so it should be at least 4 carriages from Crewe to there. @sd0733 is this something you might be able to help with?

Different data source, which is one of RTTs key advantages but in this case it is a negative since it misses out on some cancellations and manually entered delays since they are done in the main information system "Darwin".

Yes, my point about the portion of the electorate was a joke about people who like voting (given one candidate ran on a policy of preventing a second by-election), and an indication that over 10% of the electorate (the required amount for a recall petition) voted against Farage.

Surely, 11.95% of the electorate voted for Binface.

With turnout of 44.37% that means that 28.10% of the electorate voted for Farage, I assume they must like elections so much they voted for Farage so they get another one. The true test will be the second by-election where the rest of the big parties compete.

Yes, Intercity, Statesman, Saphos, and Midland Pullman are all LSL brands. I imagine they are very much trying to figure out what route they can divert by

It's certainly possible to see one from a passing train (West of Birkenhead North station is the depot of the same name, train towards either New Brighton or West Kirby). I doubt they'd all be inside given the space needed for the 777s also based at the depot, I've seen them outside before when...

What would take over the stops at Moses Gate, Kearsley, and Farnworth? Those are only served by Southport-Stalybridge services. Ignoring Clifton because it only gets 1 per day each way anyway
