That seems quite dangerous without someone contacting the signalmen like you say the marshall or the trains being stopped completley.
Im glad it all went well :)
I wouldnt know if any class 166/150 could do that as they dont have an outside screen.
I dont realy see any other trains appart from the 225s and the 800s, they probably could do it.

As i am from devon.
When you say screens, do you mean where the train information is displayed, above the isle?

Oh, just read the post.
That sounds like a good idea as people dont want a long trip without a toilet. (I know from experience!)
You do say that it wouldn't be able to run into Newton Abbot but there is actually an existing platform that is closed off to the public.
That is true about the scenery but I think people that are incapable of walking long distances would appreciate some way to see what there is to see without...
Hi there,
There are rail improvements going on around Birmingham so that may be an issue.
Do you get a reason for the cancellation?
Do you get a refund?
If not I suggest emailing GWR or SWR (or the rail provider you travel with)
Hi there,
To me that looks like some part of it has been replaced as there is a clear point where the red and black separates.
Although I'm not that familiar with semaphor signals, that definitely looks like it has been bodged on the back.
Hope that is brings more light to it!
The line has been closed for so long and it would be nice for it to open as a heritage line for people to enjoy.
It has wonderful scenery and it would be quite popular amongst tourists and locals.
We are aware of an issue with emails from the Forum to Microsoft-based email accounts (hotmail/outlook/live.com email addresses). This is being looked into currently, thanks for your patience meanwhile.
