I don't think the Citaros ever work to Cranleigh/Horsham or Epsom on the 53/63 and 479 routes respectively. They seem to be based mostly on the routes serving Woking (34/35, 91, 436).

First one that comes to mind is Aldershot, affectionately referred to by many as "Aldersh*t"...

I've often heard Trustybus referred to as "Rustybus"...

London King's Cross? Open floor if correct, please.

I applied to GWR for compensation after my train from Bristol was cancelled a few weeks ago, and ended up getting not only 100% of the cost of my ticket back, but an extra couple of pounds on top of that (for some reason!)

Bootle Station (Cumbria)

One that springs to mind is Rosalind "Ros" Canter - a well-known equestrian who competes in eventing.

Coryton?

That "timetable" looks awfully messy...

Redwings Horse Sanctuary (a publicly-funded charity; free to visit) is still limiting numbers through pre-booked places, and is asking visitors to abide by social distancing. Understandable, however, as many of the staff are unpaid volunteers who are in their older years and therefore at a...

Another vote for the Class 390 (in its present form) - comfortable, and the subdued lighting is the nicest thing when travelling at night.* *May all change with the refurbishment, though. :(

New Clee appears to have an enormous vertical gap between the platform and the train: (Picture taken from this YouTube video)

Yes, that is true - they don't offer seat reservations any more, unfortunately. I'm not sure of the reasons (as the new trains are equipped with reservation screens above the seats), but I'm sure the reservations were scrapped even before the introduction of the 745s, as I remember travelling to...

And another... There Must Be An Angel - Eurythmics

Heaven Is A Place on Earth - Belinda Carlisle

A story from not too long ago - although rather than a personal experience, I witnessed this happening to somebody else. A passenger had boarded the train with a railcard-discounted ticket, but claimed to had left their railcard at home. When the guard came through the train checking tickets...

I too initially thought of that service, but wasn't sure if it still ran, as indeed it isn't on bustimes.org. At a glance, however, it appears that the route takes the same path as the 113 between Tavistock and Newton Abbot - so it doesn't look like there are any stops served by the 112...

Shaugh Prior Cadover Bridge in Devon appears to be served a mere six times a year (in each direction) by the Tavistock Community Transport route 111 - one return journey on the fourth Saturday of each month, from April to September only. There are probably other similar stops on the same route...

Was in London with my parents once, when we had to use the Waterloo and City Line from Bank to Waterloo. We get down onto the platforms, and my mother goes and asks the member of staff present whether the train goes to Waterloo! o_O :lol:

I did (some) Latin at school... Alas, we were forced to give it up in exchange for French when the only Latin teacher quit her job after two years and they couldn't find a replacement. :D
