    How difficult is it to arrive or leave at all timetabled platforms. 5 year project to achieve this.

    I'm sure you've already seen this on UTTracker, but it seems some services (3 to be precise) will be using Huntingdon P1 Bay platform soon o_O Didn't think that would be happening again.

    Ticket Barrier Blues

    Mentioned this in another thread: I frequently buy a Travelcard Zone 1-9 with a Gold Card discount and every time I go through Liverpool Street station, the barrier invalidates the ticket (goes in and out the machine 2-3 times). Having had this happen 3 or so times and I now have to find...

    Travelcard Questions?

    Just to throw something into the mix... how would a Zone 1-9 Travelcard be viewed if purchased from an Underground Station- this has no "AAA 7-9" nonsense on it (from memory) and is an identical product.

    Travelcard Questions?

    Don't know if it is because I use a gold card discount or using a zone 1-9 travelcard, but be careful when using that gates if going via Liverpool Street as the blooming things scratch/magnetise the barcode and make you find someone to let you in/out of gates from that point on.

    No trains Edinburgh to Queen Street from 29th Jan to 1st Feb ?

    It's looking that way on https://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/search/detailed/gb-nr:GLQ/2024-01-29/0200-0159?stp=WVS&show=all&order=wtt (link to realtimetrains.co.uk showing all trains at Glasgow Queen Street on 29th January 2024). Trains towards Edinburgh turning back at Linlithgow with no onward...

    How difficult is it to arrive or leave at all timetabled platforms. 5 year project to achieve this.

    There is a day next year when services are booked to use P3, although you need to search for "UPL"...

    How difficult is it to arrive or leave at all timetabled platforms. 5 year project to achieve this.

    Do you still require St. Margarets (London) Platform 2 or Barnes Platform 4? If so, you may want to keep a watch on SWR if they are on strike again, as both were in use yesterday on the Waterloo-Feltham shuttles.

    Another landslip on the SWML (01/12/23)

    This happens when they know 100% it's not them that's going to foot the bill (usually when it's Network Rail fault, so billed to the Great British Taxpayer).

    RealTimeTrains website

    The hovercraft sailings are not shown between Southsea and Ryde, where they appear under national rail planning...Is this by design? Searched SHV and "no trains found" (which is technically accurate :lol: )

    Gaelan's train checker

    Very well laid out data. Could I suggest a "Dark Mode"?

    Non-Urgent TOPS Requests

    Heading up to Euston later to try out the new 730s and still looking for three 350s for haulage (111,246 and 260). If anyone can post their current diagram(s), I would be most appreciative.

    Class 465'466 Withdrawals - List Attached

    707024/707030 have had a reprieve and are staying with SW for the time being. Edit: Does anyone know the status of 466014? It's my last one for haulage and if it's non-serviceable, I won't go chasing it!

    How difficult is it to arrive or leave at all timetabled platforms. 5 year project to achieve this.

    Hereford P4 on 03/12 looks VERY dubious... Looking at RTT, there is nothing to suggest any empty shunt into the platform, and the previous service 1W54 departs P3.

    SWR Class 458 to be retained

    Thanks for the update. Has 8516 been stood down awaiting transfer? Also, would you happen to know if 8533 is ever going to make a comeback? TIA.
