    WMR/LNWR Staff shortages

    Clearly then, the problem is that they are employing midgets and dwarfs who cannot reach the buttons... They should change their T&C to say that only people over 4 foot 8 1/2 inches may apply :-D

    WMR/LNWR Staff shortages

    It has been an absolutely wretched evening for LNWR. The 1633 Euston - Tring stopper left 25 minutes late because the Conductor was stuck on an inbound train. When it left it was full... and when I say full, they stopped people getting on 5 mins before departure because every bit of space was...

    LNWR service from Liverpool to Birmingham and London.

    In recent weeks I have been unfortunate enough to have to take the 0705 service from Hemel to Liv Lime St. Often it is 7 or 8 mins late at Hemel after being stuck behind a late running Freightliner coming off the North London Line. At least 3 occasions we have run fast from Coventry to New...

    Overnight Bus Service (EUS - MKC)

    Hello all. I have seen a few times on RTT that there is a 0200 bus service from Euston to Milton Keynes Central on a Sunday morning. This would certainly save on a hotel Saturday night but not sure if they always run and where they stop at Euston. Has anyone ever caught this or has any info...

    Go-Ahead won't be losing the GTR franchise

    Given that the majority of the stations had increased bandwidth less than 18 months ago and brand new network switches, adding wi-fi is child's play.

    Sky presenter brands Virgin Trains a 'national disgrace'

    "Sorry boss... Can't come down to London at short notice ... I can be down a week Friday if that helps? Can get a cheap fare then" She works for Sky... Unfortunalty, the news (even sports news) doesn't wait for advanced fares, if she is needed in London, her priority is to go to London, not...

    Hemel Hempstead Bay Platform

    Hello all. Out of interest, when was the bay platform at Hemel used? I see it every day but having only lived here for a couple of years, I've never seen anything in it. Can anyone give me some idea when it was last used for? Is it part of the old Lickey line to St Albans or was it in...

    Incident at Hemel Hempstead

    Updating my last post. Well done to LNWR - the 1730 to Milton Keynes left 4 mins late... However, there was NO information at Euston on the big boards, on the platform screen or through the PA. Platform staff were quoting next service after 1900.... So well done for running a train... But...

    Incident at Hemel Hempstead

    There's nowt on the boards for LNWR at Euston. Nice to know that VTWC services to Milton Keynes allows you to connect to a bus but for anyone south of MKC.. You're screwed! Mass scramble on Platform 10 for the only LNWR service in the station. No one knows exactly where it's going...No one...

    Incident at Hemel Hempstead

    As a resident of Hemel, it's always extra sad when an incident occours at your "home" station. According to OTT at 1450 there is still nothing on the move around Hemel.

    Major Disruption At London Euston (1st - 3rd Dec 2017)

    The 1224 ex Hemel (1158 Bletchley to Euston) left at 1248 and was the first train stopping on the WCML south of Northampton. The nice staff at Hemel told us not to worry about tickets... Let's hope they feel the same way when I get to Euston!
