Just thinking back, i am sure i read (and dont dispute) that the 321's are unsuitable for DOO on the lea valley lines. When they were 1st introduced we had 321's over here on a few diagrams , cant remember if the had Guards or not, but what is the difference in DOO on 317's and 321's. Also how...
Heading into work this monrning at around 09.15 on the usual 317, I was surprised just after leaving Tottenham hale southbound we were stopped just prior to Coopersmill Junction. Whilst it is not unknown it is not that usual , normally the Liverpool St service gets the junction towards Clapton...
To those who dont frequent Liverpool Street often this may not seem unusual. But this morning arriving at liverpool street at 09.00 I noted an 8 car 321 stabled in platform 2, this is very unusual as the 321's use platforms 7 upwards, platform2 being used for the West Anglia services which...

Just seen that the Western is due to work a special to via Liverpool Street and the Lea Vcalley line this saturday the 20th December. Does anyone have the timmings for it departing Liverpool St Northbound and the Broxbourne? Dont want to miss it.

Will be taking the family on the Jacobite express from Fort William to mallaig next month, Anyone know what the loco being used is ? also what stock is being used, I am aware that it is Mk1's but does anyone have the coach numbers of the set?
Acording to the NXEA web site the 17.50 Enfield Town to Liverpool St and then Liverpool St to Chingford is formed of 7 coaches due to a technical problem. Now either this is a tyoing error on their web site or we have a 3 car 317 running around coupled to a 4 car, can anyone shed any light on this?
Hi
