Dont forget Hertford North as a stabling yard and sometimes Hitchin.

When I've spoke to fitters they say they hope to get seven turns before being replaced

The problem is you are always going to get people who are going to cause trouble, what ever sport or event you go too. I've been going to Tottenham games home and away for twenty years and only had any trouble three times. So to say its "them and us" is just not true in my experience

Feeder station at West Ham had a gas alarm which then caused a loss of power. Then when overheads came back on there was a problem because of all the trains in that section drawing power so it tripped again. General call went out to lower pans then got power back and could start to move using...

Not sure i dont think you will get 1st class but speak to the gaurd and you might get in. Correct 75% off over TOCs

Free across FGW then you will get card with boxes on it to travel on other First TOCs but in reality you can travel for free across all First Tocs only job worths will check the boxes

The up yard was mainly used to deal with the traffic for the cereal factory but now mainly used for 66s to run round. The down yard was built in the late 70s to stable 313s it has 9 roads and a wonderful wash plant that always breaks down lol.

Preserved and Heritage lines have much better safety records than say a Air Show that always seems to have crashes and deaths all the time.

When it comes to cleaning trains its the free newspapers that are the problem thousands of them on each carriage.

Thats fine you are quite right about the telephone line number being closed at six this is one place that the railway lets its self down.But there not the only ones, most people carn't get to things like Dentist or Doctors because they are not open long enough.

Hang on you were moaning about the connection time. All im saying is do it for a few years not just two weeks.!!

Welcome to world of commuting this is what thousands of people have to put up with day in and out, and do it for many years.

From memory the earliest used to be 05.00 and finish about 01.30. Not a bad place to work do get alot of crap diagrams like death by Moorgate (3,4 or even 5 trips in one diagram) Many Drivers commute from Peterborough and some from silly places like deapest Essex or Kent.

313s are the only trains allowed because of loading gauges.

The one part that always concerns me is coupling on a Preserved line and working with steam heat and trying not to get your hand burt off especially when your fireman does not turn it off at the vale in the cab to find it still gushing out. (happy days lol)

the original problem was air-con issue then something else and so it went on and on lol.

correct about the boot up message and also yer i do mean poor quality when it comes to simple things like doors opening and closing. dont get me wrong i like the 365s but when it takes years to do a simple repair on a unit 365505 london end and you have to have it coupled at all times and gets...

Class 365 are ok but they were built so poorly and now you struggle to get spares for them. and 317s are great units but FCC ones struggle to get to 100mph just about top out at mid 90s

Ok well right and wrong scatt is same as (just symbols not dots) concentration test. safepq is what you would do on a palm top before your manager interview. dfft is part of the test. The only two they dont do are rwce and rvce.So these test comply to train Driver with a Train or Freight...

Ok i can see im batting my head against a brick wall in regards of paying for it myself. No im not rich far from it and i was a shunter for over 4 years so correct language is not a problem.
