Thanks for the tips. I haven't done San Marino or the Vatican but I'm leaving those two for when I go to Rome at some point in the future.

I'm not sure whether to buy an Interrail pass or individual tickets for Summer 2026 as I want to get to Toulouse or Barcelona (by train or plane) then take the Andbus for a day or two in Andorra then go from Toulouse to Nice (for a day trip to Monaco) then from there to Sargans/Buchs (for...

You can't best the blast or warmth from the radiator in the waiting room at Ribblehead's Northbound platform. I'd also say Kemble too for the same reasons as W-on-Sea.

Thanks for all the advice. I only noticed the NI services starting in April after I made this thread so I will put back my plan from February till then then. 1764547016 Excellent advice. Thanks.

Hi. Is it possible to buy SailRail tickets from Wigan to Douglas (IOM) (not too fussed whether it is Liverpool or Heysham) and Dublin/Dun Laoghaire back to Wigan for April? PS: Can I do a break of journey at Drogheda (for Newgrange) on a Larne - Dublin ticket? Happy Christmas

How long have the lifts been out of use?

I was about to ask if the WBQ to Liverpool chord of Earlestown triangle now has no passenger services but think you've answered that question now.

Blackpool South has already been mentioned. What is the most popular station on that branch from Kirkham & Wesham?

Bleakest near me would be Ince, an island platform in a housing estate that has very recently had a new footbridge installed. Bleakest I've been to is Grimsby Docks. Similar vibes to Ardwick but Grimsby is much further away from me.

Some have been already mentioned so I'll go on a different tack and say  Llangynllo because you have to walk into someone's garden which could be disconcerting.

Yes.

Both of the Cadbury plants at Chirk and Leominster are very close to the railway. I dont think either currently have a rail connection but did they ever have a connection to rail? Very curious that both facilities are along the Marches line in an otherwise poor-ish road transport area.

This thread taps into the mess that is public transport options in South West Scotland which is worth several threads in itself. Anything to the left of a line going from Ayr to Dumfries practically doesnt exist as the benefit to cost ratio of doing anything is never going to be met and that's...

3 August - Brent Cross West Drove past Winslow too but will count it another time when I use it. Looks impressive though.

Crikey! Must have been some queue forming behind that customer.

Missed out a couple including: Kemble Betws-y-Coed Liverpool James Street Glasgow Central

Congratulations on the longevity. It's a credit to the Forum staff and enthusiastic contributors over the years. The 14 years I've been on here have flown by. Here's to more Forum Meets and many more years of this great website.

Thanks for the reply. I'll have to be a bit more patient.

I notice there was a test train under the newly wired Wigan - Bolton line. What is the timetable for electric services on this line? I'd like to have a ride one weekend.

Intrigued that Redcar British Steel and Teesside Airport are 'temporarily closed'.
