I can't see another thread on the head-on train crash between two "Gemeran" services about 30 miles west of Kosice on 13 October. About 70 people were injured (two seriously) according to reports. Fortunately there were no deaths. One service was the 09.22 Kosice to Zvolen R914, hauled by...

Much to my surprise I have just gone past an HST at Tonbridge (in platform 1). Never seen one there before.

I’m on a tpe service from Cleethorpes to Warrington central. I haven’t seen the guard at all, but just got asked to show my ticket by someone wearing a light blue tabard over a suit. The tabard says “survey team” on the back and tracsis on the front (tracsis is a provider of various rail...

I’m on the 12.17 Berlin Ostbahnhof to Interlaken Ost (I’m going to Basel SBB). I’m in 1st class but didn’t have a reservation so am sitting in the part of the restaurant car that is ordinary first class seating - so not the actual restaurant part. All the seats in this section are marked as...

I was just looking at Milton Keynes to London Travelcards for Saturday 4th June, returning about 17.00. A variety of Off-Peak Travelcards are available, which is fine. However, the Anytime Day Travelcard (ADT), route 01000 (Any Permitted), although it is available on trains (both Avanti West...

The GWR website says: But I can't find any explanation of where the zones are, either on gwr.com or on the internet generally. Does anyone know?

Lots of major stations (and probably some smaller ones) used to have "cab roads" - where taxis were available on a platform, and there was no need to go outside the station. I can think of: - Paddington - Victoria - Kings Cross - St Pancras (I think?) - Edinburgh Waverley - York - Liverpool Lime...

I am sure forum readers will be familiar with this: - I have a cross-London ticket, and wanted to travel on the Underground from Kings Cross to Charing Cross - I decide to exit the Underground at Leicester Square (as permitted by the National Rail Conditions of Travel (NRCoT)), to walk from...

Do all the GC 180s (I believe there are 10) have the same interior layouts? I mean not just numbers of seats, but position of seats relative to windows, tables, size and type of seat etc. Or are they different from one another? I was wondering if the ex-GWR ones are different from the oes that...

If I have a Birmingham Stations to London Zones U12 ticket, I can obviously use it to do a journey such as - Birmingham New Street to London Euston (train) - London Euston to Queens Park (tube) (Queens Park is in Zone 2) However, could I use it instead to do: - Birmingham New Street to Queens...

I don't ever seem to be able to get the CrossCountry seat selector to appear. I tried York to Darlington, York to Sheffield and Sheffield to Bristol TM, all for Tuesday morning next week, and solely on CrossCountry services, but was never offered the option to select my seat. Has it been...

There are two basic ways to travel from Cradly Heath to Gloucester 1. Head south, changing at Worcester Shrub Hill / Cheltenham Spa (the obvious route really, but not with that many services) 2. Head to Birmingham, then head south on a CrossCountry service to Cheltenham Spa, then change for...

There's a few threads on here about ORCATS, referring to it being a BR creation. But I can't see anything specifying when it was introduced by BR. Does anyone know? ORCATS = Operational Research Computerised Allocation of Tickets to Services (according to Wikipedia).

On a point of pure trivia I just noticed the following consecutive departures on Tuesday 18th August from Manchester Piccadilly to Stockport: 07.18 TPE 07.24 Northern 07.27 CrossCountry 07.30 Transport for Wales 07.35 Avanti West Coast 07.42 EMR Six different operators, each operating just one...
