Was volunteering there. Very glad we ended 48hrs early!

Considering Eurostar was unable to reach top speed on the ECML due to using two pantographs, this doesn’t surprise me even if it is ridiculous. The 80x can do 125mph though when in double?

Which would be more cost effective? A cut under or a bridge?

Was that a localised issue? Leeds, Bradford and York seem to do it quite well but my experience outside these areas (besides London!) is limited.

I imagine some of the station loos were after this… 1786130105 Do the toilets not lock out of use to prevent passengers using them whilst full?

But aren’t these units meant to be working in multiple?

Why is there a new alignment after Dewsbury?

Brand new trains. Some of these issues may have not been identified during testing. The way passengers use a train can be very different to just running and mileage testing.

Are the overhead gantries etc not already up and in position? Realistically, what ridership will look like though I don’t know. The Springs was very busy when I was there today, but very few shoppers using the bus services. Whilst there are some housing estates and office development, will that...
