Thanks I was wading back through the thread looking for it. I am due to try and use the service for the first time in months the week after next. Now that the bittern line appears reliable the connection in norwich might work. Hoping my london service might be a 745 (the 0740 NRW to LST) and it...

How many 745's are in service? Surprising lack of interior videos on YouTube so far so I had assumed there is only one set and on limited diagrams? WT

Thank the lord looks like the bittern line may now be useable and with new stock to boot, shame we had to endure the pain to get here.

2 paths one of which goes from crown point empty, sadly they seem to be late every day to form the 6.23 from HXM to NRW. Comes to something when the first empty train if the day is routinely late.

GA are masters of the short form and also the inaccurate reason for cancellation. There is no way to short form the 755's and the remaining 170 and 156's are in the same boat. The 90's and Mk3 have been short formed since the summer. Not enough stock, not enough trained drivers are the genuine...

Video of near miss Not sure if this was shared before

Amazing how many questions they can deflect and not answer. It cannot come as a surprise that there is such little trust of a rail company that never owns up when they make a mistake. Today's 0623 from wroxham to norwich arrived at 0642, 20 mins late, missed connection in NRW this is now the...

Sounds like a good name for the room!

Makes sense but the delays are likely caused by hold ups as services pass at north walsham. Hope this gets lifted soon. Just watched a 755/3 work the line this morning.

I use the line regularly and its every day, RTT shows this as a sea of red for the last 2 weeks. So if everything is fixed the new level of service means I will regularly get free travel from delay repay? First sheringham to norwich is delayed and the knock on starts to later services. Is...

Seems the focus on getting the rural services back to normal may have slipped. Bittern line trains still routinely up to 30 mins late or cancelled. There was rumour that some work was carried out in good faith on the level crossings even if the root cause is still debatable. Does anyone know if...

Best not count chickens or even Turkeys just yet, tomorrows early services will be the real test as they have been badly affected every day for weeks. We can only hope the NR work on a few crossings helped this weekend. Still hope GA dont use this workaround to blame NR. WT

Very nice I agree but sadly our service is downgraded to 2 hourly and what is running is always late without fail. No end in sight, guess the solution is the spring arriving? WT

Hard to read this, surely he doesn't mean major changes to a signal system operating for 19 years? Logic says the thing that changed was introducing the 755's They need to do something fast the bittern line is a joke of a service right now with no end in sight. WT

Another miserable day on the sheringham line including a period tonight with no train for 3 hours! Numerous cancellations and with most services that do manage to run running late. GA can moan about rumours and those outside the industry not knowing what is really going on, that's because...

My first post after months of just reading what has proven to be a very valuable resource as our local services have crumbled. In recent weeks I had taken to sending the EDP various links and even YouTube videos of the 170's and now the 153's leaving the region. Email back today says there is...
