There are a couple of 221s and 180s they could use for the time being - those being the ex-Avanti voyagers and the 180s they've had before.

I know that GWR, LNER and TPE can sell TOD on board for journeys involving London Underground (eg Newcastle-Fratton) but are there any other TOCs that can, such as GTR, SWR etc? I know Grand Central can't and think Northern cant neither. Thanks.

I don't think the OP is referring to the hovercraft as they mention Wightlink and not Hovertravel.

There have been pseudo adverts for KitKat on the motorways for years when the DMI shows "Take a break"

Due to the closure of the line this morning between Heworth and South Shields/South Hylton due to a maintainance vehicle breaking down, I'm guessing none of the 599s will be out and about.

There are two units in that image, and why does it look like the unit on the right looks like it has derailed at the back?

Sad news being reported by the BTP on the BBC News Channel where they are saying one person has died.

Thoughts are with everybody involved, and those at EMR this evening at Control, customer services and on platforms. Fingers crossed the message from The Times and "believed" is all it is.

Stayed at a Premier Inn last night in Southsea and they were having issues with their card payment service on the computer, and it wouldn't connect. Out came an old swipe imprinter which I was asked to sign for the written amount. Hadn't seen one of those in years. Think the last time was on a...

ScotRail are having them apparently. They may be shuffled about from 6 car to 5 though.

Sorted now thanks

I tried earlier and they weren't working.

Not sure. I only ever saw it in Gateshead and was a BBC News story about it too: BBC News - Tesco trials giant trolley scales in Gateshead - BBC News https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c0rzvrjkklko?app-referrer=deep-link

Tesco Extra in Gateshead has had the trolley and basket weighing devices removed from the scan as you shop area. I don't think the trial was a success.

I was on an 810 yesterday to Sheffield from London and they kept announcing that the air con in the rear coach was not working and to find any available seat "within the class of your ticket". We got stopped at Chesterfield for a while and then diverted into Sheffield due to trespassers. Only...

Me and my other half actually did that today as there was a bit of a wait between the Hovercraft arriving and the train to Shanklin so got a bacon roll at the Interchange and walked up to the Pier Head station and then the train to Shanklin.

I think from what was said, it is just the branding on the vehicles rather than creating a new sub-brand.

Apparently according to a handout given at Brighton station yesterday to members of the press for the launch of the new look train, the names for each operator will be: It doesn't mention any of the other brands (Gatwick Express, Heathrow Express, Stansted Express etc). I cannot link to the...
