    Oh don't be so daft about things. Thats just going completly over the top. If they want to do that a camera aint going to be make a differance. The contents of the suitcase might like. Are you saying we should search bags like at airports. Sadly though i see that happening some day, some day soon.

    1. AXC has brought back HST's and referbished them to a high standard. 2. Diagramed HST's and doubled voyagers on services that hit Birmingham around the rush hour. 3. Referbished the 170's again to a high standard. 4. Introduced at seat service, yes i was a bit worried about it at first but...

    knew someone would come back with that. I meant there wasn't such a panic in this country as there is now. It wasn't on the news, papers as much as it is now. I agree with Richard its obvous what we are doing. Taking photo's, its not rocket science.

    OMG i hate that corner i just dread it. That one and the tight corner coming of the Darlo line at the junction for Stockton. Really bad if your on a Newcastle service. Also the one coming into and out of Gateshead is a bad one, think its a 30MPH one. AXC has done more in 1 and a half year...

    If this was around the end of May and it was a Saterday, then there were major signalling probs around Newcastle. I got stuck in the middle of it all. Have to agree that the 142's aren't great like, comical and amusing in small services. Newcastle - Morpeth, Man Vicc to Shaw, Leeds - Selby.

    Is it true that at the end of a Virgin Pendolino journey they play music over the PA?

    Never noticed this before and i've done thousends and thousends of miles on em. A bit of music may have helped them go by a bit quicker. Now how about a bit N-Dubz, or Meatloaf. Now thats music. Both from completly differant decades.

Once you are cear of the roundabout its either the 1st or 2nd...

    New York Subway question

    I'm just as intersted in the NYC subway (MTA) as they call it over there. I don't think all cars have cabs at either end of the cars. Certainly the ones that work the shuttles will have them at either end. Its easier to couple them and uncouple them. For example one day the R62 / R62A stock may...
