    Southeastern Livery Change

    I do like the colour on the Javelins, apart from the doors, which seem to be using the same blue that all the mobility cars in the seventies seemed to have. I think yellow doors would suit all classes a lot more, I did a quick (very) rough and ready photoshop: Does anyone know if the 465s...

    Carriage letter order

    Perhaps they could name each coach in the style of Snow White and the Dwarves? You could have such names as Stinky, Rattly, Pukey, Noisy and Pricey!

    What's wrong (right?) with Pendolinos?

    Now I've seen those seats I now know I've got less than a year to lose at least six stone ;-)

    Thoughts for a name for the IEP Trains

    How about something to reflect its operating speed - Sumo? I just hope no one says that they all look the same to them.

    Ref stops play to watch steam train

    http://www.footballgroundguide.com/old-grounds-and-stands/st-andrews-birmingham/index.html One of many stories about the Railway End at Birmingham City's St Andrews. Other possible myths were that the majority of drivers who passed the ground were rival fans and would deliberately cover the...

    Sitting in standard might be safer than 1st?

    I've chosen to sit in standard class on Southeastern's 375s as the first class seats are less comfortable! But definitely not a mugger in sight.

    I guess Chiltern are committed to Mk3s for the foreseeable future?
