    Class 185 refurbishment for TPE.

    108 now has both the new info screens AND the new Galley area in first class. Is this the first unit to have both?

    TransPennine Express North Route, New Timetable

    But the Scarborough services are being effected more because passengers to Seamer/Scarborough have fewer options. Yes. Many of the Newcastle services are being turned around at Darlington. But there are many trains an hour from York/Darlington to Durham and Newcastle. Trains to Middlesbrough...

    Class 185 refurbishment for TPE.

    I'm riding on 185133. Managed to get some pics of all of the new info screens. I also took some pics to highlight a couple of places where you can't see them at all (in coaches A and B) without getting up and moving down the carriage.

    Transpennine Express decide not to use MK3's on limited services

    Any chance we can close this thread up? The Mark 3's are no longer going to be used, and the thread is now redundant and rapidly becoming a place WAY off topic at best - at worst a place that persons of reduced mobility are becoming the target of disparaging comments/politicking over their...

    Emergency Engineering Works LDS - YRK 24/06

    There's a bunch of messages on the TyrellCheck app about amendments, alterations and cancellations to overnight services between York and Leeds between 00:30 and 08:30 later on tonight. There wasn't anything in the Late Notice Case about this (when I booked on). Anyone have any idea what's up?

    The Queen and Meghan stay over night on Royal Train before arriving in Runcorn

    Does the Royal Train have CET toilets? Or do attendants carry out royal Poop and Scoop duties?

    TransPennine Express North Route, New Timetable

    Both Platform 10 and 12 have similar curves. But unlike 10, Platform 12 has multiple entrance points that a person can approach a train from - possibly causing a PTI incident (Ticket Office, Toilets, Sainsburys, Staff block, Bike Racks etc)... many of which a conductor will be unable to monitor...

    TransPennine Express North Route, New Timetable

    Don't know. As for TPE North Route, stations currently requiring despatch staff: Liverpool lime St. Manchester Vic. Manchester Oxf Rd. Manchester Picc. Leeds. Everywhere else on the north route is self despatch. With the exception of Newcastle Platform 12 which is currently in a limbo of its...

    TransPennine Express North Route, New Timetable

    There's only 1x TPE despatcher on duty. This led to there being at one point 6x trains being delayed at Leeds with another train parked up at a signal just outside the station waiting for a platform. That despatcher had to have a break between 20:00 and 20:30 thus the delays.

    Class 185 refurbishment for TPE.

    185133 has now been fitted with the new large information screens throughout the unit. They just cycle between a TPE route map and general information about TPE at the moment.

    Transpennine Express decide not to use MK3's on limited services

    Transpennine requires anyone wishing to use a Mobility Scooter onboard to have a "Scooter Pass" to bring one onboard. In the years that the policy has been in place, I have yet to see an actual Scooter Pass in the wild though.
