Moderator note: split from https://www.railforums.co.uk/threads/class-230-units-training-introduction-on-the-borderlands-line.191986/ What about splitting the line, having it run to Wrexham General only, and having a shuttle between there and Central a la the Cardiff Bay shuttle?

I’m on a RailJet from Wien to Praha today. It has free, fast, unlimited Wi-Fi throughout the four hour journey. No registration required. The train goes through some pretty rural parts, including sparsely-populated forests. Yet I can stream 4K video pretty much constsntly when my phone struggles...

I’m looking on Ceské drahy and it shows the mileage of a Praha hl.n to Berlin HBF journey on EC178 as 397km for today, 30/03/23. Does anyone know if that is accurate please?

I'm wanting to do my first interrail at the start of April, possibly following this itinerary...

An interesting tweet from RMT this evening, stating Avanti are stopping at-seat service. Wasn’t this advertised as one of the main perks of Standard Premium? https://twitter.com/rmtunion/status/1630940050333548548?s=46&t=vDC3x2dc8OuY1QTjySGLTw

Seen this rather interesting tweet from Richard Clinnick. I presume it’ll be the same sort of deal as the Scotrail 153 conversions? https://twitter.com/clinnick1/status/1628820196939993088?s=46&t=c-sq5B9O53LUnLEnINLNgw

I just wanted to check something for my own sanity. I’m booked Amsterdam - Düsseldorf - Koblenz HBF - Luxembourg today. My ICE from Amsterdam was late, such that I had to get a train an hour later from Düsseldorf. That was also late, so I had to get the next train from Koblenz, making me two...

I'm remembering back to a forum meet in Cardiff for the Pacers, and going 'behind' Tondu station, there's a line that branches off. From following it on Google maps, it appears to go to Margam Yard. Is this line still in use please, and if so, by what?

I'm off to Amsterdam for six days at the end of the month, and would love to spend a day or two travelling by train. I wondered if any members would be able to recommend a particular journey or train to take that might be interesting, whether it be scenic, or an interesting train, or whatever...

On Monday 23/01, I'll be travelling on the 06:16 from St Pancras to Amsterdam, but I'll be coming down from Leeds the night before and staying overnight. Would people who have travelled on Eurostar before recommend me getting a ticket to London International CIV (or whatever it's called) incase...

Hi all, I’ll be travelling on train 9126 on 22/01/23 from St Pancras to Amsterdam Centraal. Does anyone have the mileage that this is please? I presume it’ll just be going the normal route that day. Thanks!

I don't know if this is a problem with TPE, or Trainsplit, but it's letting me book onto a service that's marked as an 'Unadvertised Express' on RTT - the 05:52 Leeds to Scarborough on 22/12/22: (The screenshot below is of the Trainsplit website, showing a booking of the above service)

As many of us will be using rail to travel home for Christmas, and with the last trains being considerably earlier this year, I thought I'd start a thread for the last trains on said day. I'll kick it off with Avanti West Coast, who have just posted on Twitter their last trains for the day...

An exciting railtour has been announced by Intercity, using the DBSO and Class 47, going to Scotland over three days. Looks pretty interesting IMO: https://inter-city.co.uk/journey/the-push-pull-set

https://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/service/gb-nr:N02947/2022-11-05/detailed It originally comes from Ardwick, then goes back and forward several times between Manchester Piccadilly and Oxford Road, before going back to Ardwick. What is its purpose?

On the Avanti diverts today, I noticed what appeared to be an NSE coach or unit on the right hand side travelling in the direction of Tame Bridge Parkway to Bescot Stadium. Does anyone know what it is please, and if it’s a unit (or part thereof) what exactly it’s doing there?

On the south WCML today, I’ve noticed a lot of these plates on the OHLE masts. Some yellow, some white. I can’t tell if it’s a cutout, or a black circle. What do they indicate please?

Hi all, Tomorrow I need to make a journey that involves the tube from Kings X to Waterloo. I have a dodgy knee so whilst escalators should be okay, I don't want to have to make my way down many stairs if possible. Can anyone who does this journey tell me how easy it is please?

Hi all, Does anyone have the Northern Class 769 diagrams for tomorrow, Saturday 09/07/22 please? My previous thread is locked as it was form last year, and I don't want to clutter the main 769 thread. Thanks!

Hi folks, I’m looking for a bit of advice for the best ticket to buy. I’ll be staying near Barcelona’s main airport (near Cèntric station), and wanting to take the metro today and tomorrow into Barcelona. Would anyone be able to advise if it’s just best to buy a return for the Friday and...
