Would never normally think of claiming but have been considerably delayed on both legs of my London- Glasgow trip- well over an hour late now into Eus today.

Other than the usual overpriced official places at the station are there any other options- bus station, museum or library with lockers. Thanks

I'm going up on Monday and returning on Weds and already have a non protected Priv off peak return London Terminals- Exhibition Centre. I also have an unused Scarborough -London super off peak return portion from a previous trip. I know I'm restricted to the 09.30 or later from Euston but are...

With the return leg of a super off-peak with non protected priv today are there restrictions on the service I can catch this afternoon? Unsure of exact time as it depends what time the cricket ends at Scarborough

Does anyone have any more information on these?. They are boxes about the same size as an ESR 'dalek' with yellow/black chevrons and what looks like a speed camera fron on one side. I guess they are perhaps alarmed to to go off if a trespasser attempts to graffiti the train. I wonder how they...

Hi on a weekday in June is this remotely viable? So bus to Whitby-NYMR-bus to Malton-train back to Scarborough (or other way round) Am up there for the cricket & fancied trying this one day. Thx for any suggestions.

Hi any splits worth bothering with with unprotected Priv going up Mon 25th (ideally in Scarbados for 12) & back on the 27th anytime? Thx

This story first broke in Jan- a few months on and there is still a media blackout on the coach owner/operator and their name. Also the nonsense spouted in early reports that it was being used by bands turns out that it had been used by a golf party. Anyone in the industry know why the cover...

A renewed appeal from my local police- http://www.bromleytimes.co.uk/news/police-renew-appeal-for-murder-of-bromley-woman-30-years-after-it-happened-1-5447348

Due to the increasing problem of large gangs of violent 'youths' meeting up via social media on stolen Boris bikes etc the City of London Police have just imposed a dispersal order for the whole of their area this weekend. They have been targeting phones/bags outside Cannon St and Liverpool St...

In other news Network Rail have announced that all toilet charges are to be scrapped at their managed stations from 2019 Expect them to be full of homeless washing as the ones at Victoria are now.

Doesn't make great reading. http://www.railtechnologymagazine.com/Rail-News/raib-runaway-trailer-separated-from-train-due-to-deliberately-disabled-brakes Mods- if there was an old thread on this please merge. Thx.

NR SE have stated that they are introducing water fountains at CHX and will be rolling them out across their managed stations. https://www.networkrail.co.uk/feeds/network-rail-makes-a-splash-with-free-drinking-water-at-stations/ An excellent initiative and will help reduce the ridiculous...

Interesting article on how the present system isn't working. http://www.railtechnologymagazine.com/Rail-News/rssb-industry-should-adopt-collaborative-just-culture-for-managing-staff

The RAIB have just issued this report into the low speed Kings Cross buffer collision earlier this year. Can this please be a discussion into the fatigue issues raised rather than the incident itself which has its own thread. I have a feeling this report could lead to changes...

Seems there is a line inspection taking place around the Wembley area (that's going to be fun with todays NFL match)- cancellations starting

Just seen a FB post that the IOM government inspectors have failed their safety case and all services are suspended. I guess its off the back of the investigation into the derailment- though *cough they let it run during the main tourist season.
