EMR services from Nottingham to Norwich on Sunday 16th are diverted via Oakham, some departures like the 1850 don't show up on National Rail search (or even EMR website) instead it suggests changing at Leicester for XC to Ely then Greater Anglia to Norwich. GWR mixing desk however finds it...

Planned trip Paddington - Penzance next week got to change plans due to GWR strike Saturday. Was going catch 1204 on Friday instead but now seen elsewhere that it's rammed every day (and Newquay boardmasters will be on as well) as it's first super off-peak through train. Thoughts on changing at...

GWR have changed refund arrangements for sleeper berths, above 14 days ahead it's 100% ( £10 Admin charge) 7-13 days is 75% (minus £10 admin) Less than 7 days is no refund at all, seems harsh as they can resell if cancelled. The previous arrangements allowed some refund up to 1600 on date of...

Starting in a fortnight the Friday night down & Sunday night up services will be formed of 5 sleeping cars once more (4 on other nights)

Sleeper Advance (berth inclusive) fares appear to have been withdrawn ? Only berth supplements appear to be bookable currently, and only these are mentioned on GWR website now, it suggests these are priced according to demand.

This unusual working on Sunday (reverses at Cambridge) does not appear in journey planners - what causes this to happen ?

Today Romford ROC had a power failure which stopped all services to/from London Liverpool St. Presumably there will some difficult questions asked as to why backup supply did not work. How unusual is a complete meltdown in ROC PSB etc ?

Surprised no-one else has mentioned this today - 2H21 GA 0942 Cambridge North to Liverpool St. formed of 2 x 4 car class 379 reportedly divided while between Harlow Mill and Harlow Town, handful of pax detrained safely. Any history of this type of problem with 379's and what is line speed in...
