Seems that ITV Studios subsidiary Potato are filming a Paddington 24/7-style series at Birmingham New Street as there are filming notices dotted around the station. Says that the series will feature Network Rail staff, station operations and some of the rail operating companies. Also will be...

Why is TPE services pathed as Class 506 units on the WCML?

Does anybody know if RTT will be putting the Santa special on this year? Always causes a laugh at work. Thanks.

About a year or so ago I had a London Terminals to Rosslare Europort CIV via Fishguard Harbour ticket that was purchased at Paddington station. The train from Paddington to Swansea was about 115 late at Swindon due to a fatality and I spoke to the guard as I would have missed the Swansea to...

There is a website that gives the CIS screens from railway stations (the blue screens with white/yellow text), but I can't seem to find it anymore. Does anybody have the link? Used to give public, staff and more views of the services. Also worked for Dublin Connolly and Belfast Central. Thanks!

Today's 1240 Glaagow Central to London Euston 9-car 390 had to run at 115mph all the way down the route but nothing was said as to why except it'll be running "10mph slower than normal" and then when we arrive into Euston it was absolute chaos and everything delayed but again nothing was said...

In the summer why can't GWR run a boat train service from London Paddington to Fishguard Harbour to connect with the night sailing (2345) to Rosslare Europort (Stena a0330-0400 depending on sea conditions), and return at 2303 instead of the ATW service for passengers coming off the afternoon...

Has Leicester always had a bad Sunday service? The reason I ask is that the first train north is at 1020, and shortly after for Birmingham. I know there's engineering work this weekend between Leicester and Bedford meaning rail replacement buses but are there usually services south earlier...

Currently on a train from Paddington and as it left we got about 50yds up the platform whilst the on board PA system was counting up for some reason and then came to an emergency stop. The automated announcement then said "Door fault - vehicle delta" as platform staff were running to the train...

Say a GWR HST was to fail at Plymouth towards London would a spare powercar from Laira depot be able to rescue it either nose-to-nose or gangway to nose and effectively drag it into Laira depot? Or drag the failed powercar away from the set to Laira and then use the rescue powercar as a...

Hi. I’ve a return portion of a First Anytime Return from Portsmouth Stations to London Underground Zone 1 and am wondering if this is classed as a valid route. There are no route restrictions on my ticket (ie via Three Bridges/Guildford/SWR Only): Portsmouth and S/S to Southampton Central...

Was travelling on a T&W Metro yesterday and it was one hell of a rough and noisy ride that felt like it had derailed slightly as you could hear every sleeper. Spoke to a member of Nexus staff who said that it was due to “flat wheels”. Is this the suspension that’s gone or the wheels have...

As seen: http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/Y81179/2018/04/02/advanced Anybody know why the train was held near Penkridge for a considerable amount of time?

Even National Rail get it wrong!

When the blockade between Preston and Blackpool North has finished, I expect Virgin to be running their Euston-Blackpool North service again. It usually gets into Blackpool about seven thirty. What I want to know though, is why is there no return working? The set goes back ECS to Burton...

a friend tonight was waiting for the 1822 from Conwy which according to the CIS was on time and that a signal had to be made to the driver for the train to stop. She did signal the driver yet the train failed to stop and carried on through. ATW customer services have apparently been useless...

is there anywhere online where you can view the live schematics for stations on the rail network? The kind that GWR have installed on their networks showing the lines and train head codes? Thanks.
