Does anyone have a copy of MALÝ ATLAS LOKOMOTIV 2023 for sale or knowledge of where I might be able to purchase a copy from ? (without having to travel to a bookshop in Czechia !)

What are the likely HST diagrams on Sunday 16 July when the Newport diversions are also in operation?

Many thanks for taking the time to respond to my query about the routeing guide. I will investigate more !

Thank you for both replies. They make things much clearer. There is no + symbol so clearly it is not valid via London. There is a 2V restriction which I think means it is not valid before 0930 Monday to Friday. Otherwise any of the 3 other routes I listed is it appears possible. When you say a...

Around 60 cancellations for the rest of the day currently. https://www.journeycheck.com/northernrail/ The "reason" given for most is the meaningless " this is due to a short notice change to the timetable" Why not be transparent & honest and state that the real reason is a lack of train crew...

1203 Liverpool to Euston Sunday 14/05/23 LSL Mk 3 set so much more comfortable than an Avanti Pendolino (refurbished or not) or LNER Azuma or GWR IET set. This is much more like what Inter - City travel should look and feel like !

Seems to be on the move again now about 25 mins late on RTT. Any reason given for the delay? Are there many passengers on the train?

When a graphic of a particular train is shown with the carriages that make up the train which end of the diagram represents the front of the train? I assume the front of the train is on the left side? Is that correct ? For example A--B--C--D--E A is the first coach & E is the last...

Can Charfield Loops be used by passenger trains? I ask because numerous times in the past month, and today is a good example, 1M93 Bristol to Manchester is delayed by 2V63 Weymouth to Gloucester. 2V63 is approx. 20mins late and started to delay 1M93 at Filton Abbey Wood. Unbelievably it was...

Does anyone know what the usual allocation of coaches (4 or 8 ) is on Liverpool to Birirmingham services on a typical Sunday ? Departures at 10.33, 1133, 1233, 1333 and hourly until 2133

Thank you for the information. I have tried the GWR site and it indeed works as far as recognising the trains I want and processing the information but then says it is unable to book seats with this operator ie. XC trains. I think I will contact XC trains and ask why they won't allow seat...
