    Class 93 Tri-mode Loco

    Thanks for clarifying @43096

    Class 93 Tri-mode Loco

    Why do they need barriers? I thought they could couple to M.U.'s - that was the whole reason for ordering them - no?

    Fear of prosecution for fare evasion

    Have they charged you an admin fee?

    Class 93 Tri-mode Loco

    GWR are in the process of refurbishing their 57's so will not be using 93's or anything else on the night riviera

    Scrap metal theft since the 2013 Scrap Metal Dealers Act

    And what would they do? No one's been injured so they're not interested

    Scrap metal theft since the 2013 Scrap Metal Dealers Act

    Because some scrap metal dealers don't ask for i.d., and they will pay in cash if you pay them £10 at the window! (at least the last time I disposed of some scrap) The law is basically ignored in my experience

    Best coffee shops on the network?

    The hut at Romsey is good, card only though. Westbury does a great coffee, and the shop by the waiting room at Leamington Spa does good food - but a bit expensive

    Rules for transporting nuclear fuel trains through tunnels.

    On the M25/A282 at the Dartford tunnel they stop all the traffic in one bore and send all the fuel and hazardous trucks through in convoy - lovely if you're a tanker driver!, no idea on the rails though

    Land Disposal at East Midlands Parkway - bad deal for the taxpayer

    I would have thought that by not doing the landscaping or the fencing works they have actually saved money? Anyhow wouldn't those items be part of the Highways works in improving the junction when the design was approved?

    Wrexham, Shropshire & Midlands Railway updates

    Or maybe by showing local Wrexham business leaders by a 5 hour trip to London, that the whole scheme is an unworkable white elephant

    WCR - Jacobite 2026

    Especially as FTW has a Morrison's and a McDonalds next to the station
  12. Spaceship323

    Confused about what to do.

    When she said you will get a letter, did you give her your details or did she scan your ticket?

    Freedom Pass misuse

    You don't need to prove anything, you will swear to tell the truth and the magistrate will accept what you say when asking for other offences to be taken into consideration (as above)

    WCR - Jacobite 2026

    Even the chippy at the station closes about 20' after the lunchtime scotrail service arrives. so you can't even wait in there. We had to sit on the platform for ages as most of the town is inaccessible for a wheelchair - saw the afternoon Jacobite come in though - which was nice

    Short day trip to Inverness

    There's a good cafe at Inverness bus station (just around the corner from the station) for a coffee and cake, and an M&S opposite the railway station so good for some percy pigs!

    GBRf Class 99 - 30 locomotives now ordered

    Probably 57305, that's just got into the L.I.P. it won't be a 47 this time I'm afraid

    Misuse freedom pass

    AlterEgo outlined what will happen in post #14, that is tfl's policy and the usual result that we see

    Misuse freedom pass

    Only mention the time you were stopped, it would help if you posted a draft for approval before sending

    Locomotive Services Fleet (LSL) updates

    Is it not bringing 57302 back, or is that not ready yet?

    Alternatives to ebay

    Good idea, I'll try that
