Looking at National Rail there look to be quite a few delays into Kings Cross. Does anybody have any more info on the nature of this? On the 1916 Doncaster-KGX, currently running slow in the Biggleswade area. What kind of delay can I expect?

http://www.railforums.co.uk/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=228 Apologies for the late posting, I was a bit rusty with the procedures but have sorted it all out now! Votes by 7pm next Sunday (18th). Good luck! :)

If there are any football fans out there, what are people's experiences of using this after matches? Are the queues horrendous, and what are buses like heading into the city centre?

Firstly, could somebody please check what worked the 0634 LDS-STP today? Was it a Meridian vice HST? Secondly, does anybody know why so many FGW HSTs are in reverse formation at the moment? Thanks! :)

As I mentioned in another thread, I have been offered an interview for the position of Retail Supervisor at Worksop. I have only once had another interview for a TOC, for EMT as a ticket inspector back in 2010. What might I expect at the interview? Will it be similar?

(Split from Hilarious explanation for wrong train with Advance single ) [In reference to the fact that an AP ticket holds no value when the train is missed and a brand new ticket should be purchased, as reported on Watchdog] :roll: Well I'm sure all these people are going to be rushing to...

My sources tell me that there has been a complete loss of signalling north of York. Services are currently being heavily delayed and/or cancelled. At Doncaster trains are being held and passengers are being told to come back tomorrow. Apparently the scenes at Leeds are chaotic. All second...

Any ideas why all EMT Leeds services were being diverted via Barnsley tonight? The route via Westgate seemed to be open as normal.

Just to warn people, there is significant disruption currently unfolding on the East Coast. All 4 lines are blocked in the St Neots area. The wires are down and tangled around a 91. No services are running south of Peterborough at present. Tickets are being accepted on other TOCs (Virgin and EMT).

There are suggestions that there has been a derailment this morning between Grindleford and Sheffield. There are certainly rail replacement buses operating. Does anybody have any more details?

About 1515 on Friday, heading Northbound, destination blind 'Edinburgh Waverley'. Anybody know why it had been down south?

I'm lucky enough to have been chosen for interview for a part time assistant ticket inspector role with East Midlands Trains. My main question is what should I expect from the interview, and has anybody got any good tips? I also have to do a fare and validity test which I'm reasonably...

Major chaos out there today due to various problems. East Coast/Grand Central/Hull Trains seem to be particularly badly affected. Several Leeds services have been cancelled because of the weather and overhead line problems south of Peterborough have worsened the problems. Meanwhile, trains...

This weekend was one of Hull's biggest for many years - a 3 day music festival with major headline acts, the start of the round the world clipper race, a huge firework display, heritage open weekend for many historic buildings and the final weekend of the jazz festival. It was predicted that...

This has probably been asked to death, but I am interested in a part time booking office or general customer service job in the Sheffield area (Chesterfield/Sheffield/Meadowhall/Barnsley etc.) for when I go to Sheffield university. How regularly do such roles come up, and are the TOC websites...

I am enquiring on behalf of a group of 3 friends travelling Hull-Kgx on Bank Holiday Monday May 4th for a day trip, without any railcards. I am currently away from home so can't get full internet access, thus my request. I've managed to establish that there are no AP fares available out of...

A story of conflicting information, internal arguments and poor customer service. In a case involving a number of TOCs, who has the responsibility to get you home? What happens when two TOCs refuse a taxi on the basis of false information? And what happens when online journey planners...

A nice little video illustrating the removal of the the bridge at KGX over the Christmas shutdown, and associated works including removal and re-installation of OHL wires, all in time for December 27th! :) http://www.networkrailmediacentre.co.uk/imagelibrary/detail.asp?MediaDetailsID=1926

Noticed a very unusual working on the Yorkshire coast line this afternoon. 66164 heading north light engine through Cottingham at around 12:25, does anybody know what it was up to?
