i think it was, it was a long time ago now, cant find any evidence online about it

ok, lets agree to disagree, shame we cant ask any residents of Stocksbridge and Deepcar whether the Wicker is an acceptable destination to be put off when most of them would have had to drive/walk/bus/taxi/cycle at the start of their journey

you, and many others, are so desperately trying to reopen Victoria station at all costs, including diverting Worksop services into it to further justify it (to hell with connections to the rest of the rail network), that it is overshadowing all reason now.

There is zero justification for having a new Victoria station, or for letting the idea drive any ideas or plans. The location, as it was when it was open, is not remotely near to the commercial heart of the city. You can justifiably scoop people up at the start of the journey by bus, car, taxi...

I know, I am from there. This RAIL exhibition was back in the day when the Huddersfield line was threatened with closure throughout and my question to them was 'will Penistone feature in your RAIL plans?'. It was nothing to do with tramlines, but heavy rail. It was a great presentation, lots of...

The irony in all of this is that SYPTE have historically had aspirations to run to a train service to Stocksbridge for over 40 years. In the late 70 or early 80s that I saw an exhibition in the city where they showcased all their plans for the SY rail network, including a line to Stocksbridge...

1677603785 oh how i love how local politicians jump on to something as if they have just discovered something entirely new. Stocksbridge and Deepcar had a local clipper bus service for well over 40 years, running from Deepcar, up the hills, around the estates, through Bolsterstone, around more...

I will concede that the traditional shopping trip to traditional town centres, whether by train or bus, is in decline. However, when you are talking about a limited supply of custom (I believe the whole population of the upper Don valley wont exceed 15,000) then the case for re-instatement is...

with respect, I think you are struggling to find the problem for which you have a solution. Please explain how, why, an average person who lives say in Wharnecliffe Side or Oughtibridge will embark on a trip to town (lets say Cathedral area/The Moor), then walk laden with shopping to Victoria...

I agree, a tram is far better than heavy rail and far better than a bus. Whatever the answer is it has to take you where people actually want to go without obstacles. The time delay by extending on to the Middlewood tram is more than compensated for by giving direct access to Hillsborough...

Commenting as a native and former commuter of that area, I dont believe reopening is as simple as it may appear on paper. Stocksbridge/Deepcar is located in a valley with all the population on the south hillside, so only the fit and healthy would be able to walk to where a new station would be...

Advance previews of many of the May 2023 NRT tables are now viewable at https://timetables.fabdigital.uk/nrt/ Remaining tables will be added on a rolling basis over the coming weeks, and the usual caveat applies that they are ALL SUBJECT TO CHANGE between now and May, and none can be considered...

This is what it was going to be. Havent got around to amending it to what it will actually be

It has been removed from the NRT across tables 021, 086, 087 and 096 in this portal https://timetables.fabdigital.uk/nrt/dec2022/

Its likely to be an omission, along with a few others. When the table was compiled it was obvious to the eye that there were gaps, but sadly deadlines are deadlines, so what you see is what is in the system now. Hopefully it will probably correct itself over the next few weeks and updates will...

Thankyou, you beat me to posting yet again! Every effort has been made to try and achieve 100% accuracy, but comes with the usual caveat that human error is forever possible. It is also constantly subject to change, however every effort will be made to ensure that these changes are made in a...

Sorry but I had to pull table 020 due to ongoing changes, only minor, but enough to warrant a full refresh. It will be re-issued at some point soon.

The software to produce these A-Z Departure sheets is still there, it's just that having lost the obligation to produce them during COVID, few TOCs want to bring them back for cost reasons. Northern, GWR and Chiltern are at least 3 TOCs that do continue to produce them, and will be doing so for...

You beat me to it, I was going to make a post this morning advising everyone. They come with the usual caveat that what you see is the situation as of now, and all are subject to further change as more data comes downstream. Indeed, only this morning I have already had to make minor changes to...

Table 75 contains the Long term plan data which still stands Sep to Dec. Machynlleth to Aberystwyth appears to be additional Short term plan eng work for that week only and will therefore not make it into the NRT tables
