The same way someone can use the road network for long distance commuting.

It failed last night on 1C96 just outside Plymouth, all engines shutdown. Arrived 219 minutes late!

“Special mode” makes no difference, as has been proven with numerous stranded IETs over the last couple of years.

ignoring everything else, it is without doubt the actions of the traincrew, signaller, control and station staff have prevented a far more serious event. Those individuals whether publicly or privately need recognising for their actions. They have saved countless lives.

Yes, if any individual was attempting to bite then my hand would be around their throat.

Tragic as the accident was, and it’s sad it resulted in a loss of life but pure common sense tells you not to stick your head out of a window. Millions of people safely travelled on a train with droplight windows over the years, but the action of one irresponsible person warrants a train...

Speedo fault. Set was dragged back into Penzance and fitters took the working speedo out of the rear cab of the 57 and fitted it in the front cab!

They’ve discovered incorrect parts have been fitted to couplers on sets being returned from overhaul. Hex to resume shortly.

If you have another available leading cab then you must change ends in order to return to a station you’ve overshot. Failure to do so will lead to a disciplinary if not dismissal.

No.

LNER aren’t the only ones then! GWR seem now to make up roles and appoint new managers/director to them on a weekly basis. There’s even Wellbeing Managers! There’s one simple solution to significantly increasing wellbeing but this is probably not the thread!

Why is it nonsense?

I actually think your alternative ending is the most likely. They might make the right noises now to get the votes but SHOULD they get in I think they’ll quickly change their tune.

l‘ve clearly got a better idea of what will happen than you…. as has most of the people on this forum!
