I have a 4 year old and an almost 2 year old and they behave fantastically as a rule 99% of the time. I take stuff to distract them, we play eye spy out of the window, point out things of interest etc. I do tend to spend most of the time talking to them (look at those cows, what noise does a cow...

We have decided to take the boys to sandbach tonight to see her go through the station, then off to the heritage centre tomorrow morning for them to see her up close and personal so to speak, then finally over to Crewe station to see her depart for Holyhead. They don't have a clue and I...

Thank you for all your opinions/advice. We are going to take him to the heritage centre tomorrow evening then if that goes ok, will take him to Crewe station next Wednesday. we will also have our 4 year old with us who is completely indifferent to trains, but as he made us go to the beach...

Ok, could do with a little bit of advice here. As I may have mentioned before, my youngest son (22 months old) is train mad. He always has to be holding one of his toy trains, demands Thomas on within minutes of getting up etc. We were planning on going to Crewe on the 15th to see the train as...

They've been for there usual Friday night fish and chip tea tonight from there usual chippy so nothing much has changed too much for them! I'm Local and can honestly say he's one of the nicest friendliest drivers I've ever come across. Someone who truly deserves it

I tried to book tickets from greenbank to new Brighton for today and it came up on mine too

Fab, thank you. We may have no other choice apart from Crewe if my partner has to work as I don't drive and I'm only 5 minutes walk from Hartford station. But, I'm also going to be due my 20 week anomaly scan around that date as I'm currently expecting number 3 so he may be off that day...

It's arriving into Crewe on 15th June at 2pm. This is local to me and would be ideal for me to take my 2 boys (4&1) It is going London Euston to Holyhead. Would Crewe be a good vantage point? Would it be safe enough for me to take my boys considering some of the stuff I've read? My 1 year...

He had mental health issues and his best friend saw it Happen. Just awful for everyone concerned.

19 year old lad from Runcorn. My father lives on Bradbury road and the train came to a stop directly behind his house.

Whilst it can't truly be compared, for 2 years I lived opposite the mod Cheshire line, approx 200m from Northwich station. Almost immediately, we stopped noticing the trains and began to instead notice if they weren't there! 3 months after moving in, I gave birth to my first child and when he...

Oh dear, another one of my famous "too lazy to read back" posts!

I kept mine up with my child in it on Wednesday traveling deom Crewe to Warrington on a fairly packed train. In fact, Crewe station staff helped me board with him! I used to fold his buggy when he was smaller though and actually found it quite easy. The only reason I don't now is because I'm...

Don't forget that people that don't offer there seat might have a perfectly valid reason as to why they are in more of a need than say the elderly but otherwise fit and healthy man that's just got on. I was travelling home fromManchester today on a fairly crowded train when an elderly man got on...
