David i'm using a HM Forces railcard for the journey if that helps:wink: it would be nice to be in that age bracket again lol sadly i'm a lot older now

I'm not complaining i'm just saying that if we shop around we can get a better deal than plumping for the most direct route with one TOC. add to the fact i did the same journey WITH XC booking 8 weeks in advance before last year and payed nowhere near £120 then i think it is uncompetative. but...

just bought my tickets for going home beginning of august, so what i hear you say but how can cross country justify charging £120 for a return ticket from plymouth to eaglescliffe:evil:. So being the tight northerner that i am:wink: decided to shop around (red coloured cloth is the website)...

sounds like a dickie air compressor.

I've just read that GBrf are strarting a new fuel flow from seal sands on behalf of Greenergy. would i be correct in thinking this is the old petroplus depot at Port Clarence? as it says it's from the storage facility on the north bank of the Tees that is unused and thats the only place i can...

Bunch of F*&^*&^ Idiots. i'd like to say i hope they get caught but thats probably unlikley.

If they put electronic screens in they won't last five minutes. as for the over bridge it will would be better if it was knocked down and a new one built to make it DDA compliant it's bad enough trying to get a childs buggy over never mind a wheel chair. althought it's about time CCTV was...

Does this mean billingham will get moved back to the original station site. I do hope so because it's talked about for years.

i remember reading in the rail press last year that a train operator would be trailling one of these CSRE Polaris trains this year. now it appears that it's all gone away, anybody know any different?

Anyone know why buses are replacing trains between Middlesbrough and Hartlepool? Isuspect the metal thieves have been out again but i could be wrong. --- old post above --- --- new post below --- please ignore, found out there are works going on over the weekend

On WNXX things had changed slightly at around 1930 with the following units being used, 70005 on 4Z12 crewe to L'pool bulk, 70016 on 6F03 Ellesmere port to Fiddlers ferry, 70013 on 4V07 crewe to portbury and 70017 on 4L60 crewe bashford hall to ipswich. Anyone think freightliner should buy some...

there is one that was uploaded recently done on an i phone or something of that ilk, poor lad has his finger over the lens and what i can only say falling asleep as he's filming it proper tosh.

whats that diagram in front of the secondmans seat

that seems sensible enough, thanks ainsworth and thank your person in the know.

Surely keeping it on would also aid in the cooling or do east coast know something that everyone doesn't. whilst i appreciate it was added when they were having low power issues you'd think they'd have kept it on. it's not as if the MTU and all the associated gubbings are perfect are they.

I noticed that some East Coast Hst's have had the raised exhaust cowling removed so they look like they did when they were first built, anyone know why. is it something to do with the MTU refirbs ???

thanks for that, if i'm honest the 37 looks a bit strange in the truck livery.

Morning all, I've just been on the stobart website shop looking at goodies for my little lad and came across a print of a train more specifically a class 37 called Norman it was in the old green and white stobart livery. now is this just a fantasy of did this really exist . does anyone have any...
