No, the wind tunnel and CFD limits are unchanged. 1774861996 Honda were happy with the engine in McLaren days too. Although the car wasn't as good as McLaren thought it was, and so the engine wasn't quite as bad as McLaren thought it was, the engine was still absolute garbage. Honda only...

I'm not, speaking as someone who has had issues with it in the past having to dispose of alcoholic gifts bought in London when East Coast (as was) decided at the last minute to make a train dry. Luckily they weren't particularly expensive. The issue isn't alcohol on the train, the issue is...

I don't think you should buy another ticket. If BA cancel your flight- and it doesn't matter why they cancel your flight- then they are responsible for getting you to your destination. If they can't fly you, you would be well within your rights to go to Glasgow Central, buy a train ticket for...

Church Stretton and Craven Arms both have a largely hourly service, particularly northbound to Shrewsbury. It’s not irregular and it’s not infrequent. Craven Arms has a population of 2000 people, for context here. Not really. The legislation is that Welsh has to be given equal standing; it...

I think the Marches line has a much better standard of service under the control of the Senedd that it would under the control of English authorities. The line is important to the Welsh because it links the different bits of Wales. I can’t say it would attract the same attention from English...

Yep. And that was a Strategic Rail Authority special, the franchise award predating the devolution to Cardiff.

Those two towns are on the main railway route which connects South Wales, Mid Wales, and North Wales. So even if they don't specifically care about passengers between those two towns, they will care about the overall route as the trains that are important to them use that route and go through...

When you look at the route compared to the railway line it makes more sense. Crossens-Southport has to be a bus because the railway was closed. Between Southport and Ainsdale it's fairly close to the railway, but it still serves the bottom end of Ainsdale away from the station. In Formby its...

You gave Stockport as an example. Let's say that the bus station had been built where Grand Central is. Great for the railway station, but anyone heading for the shops and cafes and bars in the town centre would have been faced with a walk or faced with using on-street stops in the town centre...

That just gives you a broken wrist. The phones are secure, they can be (and are) remotely wiped and bricked if there is any issue. I'm not cynical about the phone being stolen. They're lost or stolen all the time. I am much more cynical about the fact the phone wasn't backed up.

If I'm sitting with a glass of wine (or three), how is that affecting you in any way? If your issue is anti-social behaviour (shouting, swearing, etc) then banning alcohol will make very little difference to that. As anyone who's taken a late night train out of London when Leeds United have...

In day to day usage, how many people travelling into a town or a city centre are doing so in order to catch a train? This is the issue that always gets forgotten in these discussions. Most people using Stockport bus station, for instance, are not heading to Stockport railway station. They're...

The 158s in particular were always a regular part of the Marches services, all the way back to Regional Railways days, before, during, and after the 175s.

I suppose I should post an Isle of Man Electric Railway tramcar. This is from 2022 and it is distinctive because I took the photo just before I got to drive it. 1774562774 And some horsey trams too!

Hmm. Not buying that at all. Not as they’re using double deckers on the Mousehole route. It’s the lying that bothers me. They run bigger buses less frequently because it saves them money. It’s not because of safety and it’s not because of a lack of suitable buses.

And Rebekah Vardy’s agent genuinely did accidentally drop her phone into the sea :E

Was the Mousehole service losing money under First Kernow? We’re expected to believe it’s a loss-making service yet one that experiences overcrowding? Of course Go-Ahead took the cheaper option. My issue is the way they try and claim that it’s completely outside of their control and it’s all...

Something has to go first. If Welsh always goes second then there is an argument that it is being treated less favourably than English. You are, after all, making exactly that argument: that English is being treated less favourably because it goes second. You could do a 50/50 split but I’m not...

Tomato/tomato. Go-Ahead could have operated it at the same frequency as First Kernow using smaller buses as First Kernow had done. Sprinter City 45s aren't exactly hard to come by. Go-Ahead chose not to, they chose to run bigger buses less often because it is cheaper for them to do so. For...

Absolutely. Go-Ahead decided to cut the frequency of the route to Mousehole, preferring to send bigger buses less often. There are, no doubt, solid financial reasons for deciding this, but it is something they decided to do. They weren't compelled to do it. Next step will be Go-Ahead...
