67025 is planned to go to Holyhead Tuesday morning. HD05 is planned to leave Holyhead Wednesday lunchtime if all goes to plan for Canton. Lack of available drivers at Holyhead is the cause.

8/4/24 Douglas Horse Tram completed in full. It's in my Baker Atlas so in my view counts.

Wed 6th March 2024 Woodburn Junction - Tinsley South

Sounds a very good trip North if a little cold. Got to say I'm a little envious that you managed to do Sunnyside Loop on the Sleeper. Shame the lounge shut so soon after leaving Crewe. When i last did it from Crewe North about 15 years ago it seemed that they would keep serving until we went to...

Sunnyside Junction - Whifflet South Junction is in use by the Fort William sleeper in both directions from January 29th to February 1st. I can't say I remember this line in use by a scheduled passenger train before. If you can combine it with some business in Glasgow might be a good one to go...

Thanks for mentioning this service. I need to travel on the line from Sheffield to Rotherham via Tinsley. There is a late Cross Country train from Plymouth to Leeds which uses this. Potentially I could then catch a Transpennine to York and then 01.38 to Manchester Airport, back on same train to...

Could anyone advise where the following Class 156's are currently based? 156445 156494 156498 Many thanks. They are the last class 156's I need for sight.

01/01/24 Lifford East Jc round the curve to Lifford West Junction. Snap D841

Sunday 17th December Gas Factory Junction - Bow Junction near Stratford, London Completed at the second attempt. The first attempt in Febuary this year was thwarted by a lineside fire near Stratford.

Well done on completing all this unusual track recently. You certainly seem to have been busy. I missed you by two hours on Sunday. I was doing Gas Factory Junction to Bow Junction and was at Stratford at about 1pm. One for the future is Lifford East Junction - Lifford West Junction near...

I've still been reading your trip reports over the past year or two without commenting. They are always very interesting. That last trip sounded very good especiallythe people watching side of things. Well done for completing so many platforms. I've yet to do the Ilford Down Passenger Avoider...

10th November Dingwall - Kyle of Lochalsh Last major line now completed. Saved the best to last. So scenic in the sun with snow capped mountains.

I saw 5T57 at Chester at 20.08. It was 777003 at Chester. It appeared to be on a driver training run.

Sorry to disagree with childwallblues but 142's were regulars on Llandudno - Manchester services occasionally coupled to a Class 150 when first introduced. I forget where the Llandudno services used to go to back then. Services often changed and weren't quite as clockface as now. Certainly some...

I don't think 175109 is at Crewe ETD for Tyre Turning. The lathe has been out of action for at least a couple of months. TfW units are being sent to Canton for tyre turning. DB engines are being sent to Toton for Tyre Turning.

TfW journey check has been saying all day that the 17.14 Cardiff Central - Holyhead is starting at Chester due to a lack of driver.

I telephoned the Swanage Railway regarding getting a Priv ticket. I was told that I could get a Wareham - Swanage single for 1/4 price. I think it cost me £5 from what I remember. I bought the ticket on board the Swanage Railway train. I didn't enquire about through tickets from elsewhere but I...

Can anyone tell me where 156408 is now based? This is my last non Scotrail 156 to see for sight. I know it was formerly an East Mids 156 but not don't know where it is based now. Many thanks in advance.
