Was curious about this one: services with a scheduled long stop at an intermediate station. I've seen the last kings cross- newcastle train call at York for 25+ mins before but are there services that stop at a station longer?

I dont think Platform 12 at Newcastle sees any regular services?

The Tyne and wear metro network can generate some impressively loud rail roar given the speed and weight of trains that run on it..

That's the one! I remember it being in a funny place out the way..

158's (and some 156's) do seem to have rather flimsy fold down tables, amongst the sturdiest ones i've came across are the metal ones on 220/221's and the ones on 185's are pretty decent too.

Are the Ardrossan harbour/ Largs branches up on the Ayrshire coast signalled at their extremities?

Ahh dammitForgot about HS1!

Newcastle to peterborough is far, far quicker by train then by car at ~ 2 hours 20 versus ~4 hrs

Yeah i've find the 156s quite agricultural but not bad as per se, i guess the 2x doors in the middle of the 150 dont help the seat layout much in a 20m coach.

Right, cheers for the info!

I'd have a guess anywhere south-east of London that's not on the Thameslink route?

Never actually been aboard a 150 before, I've always imagined though it'd be a somewhat similar experience to a 156, which I've been on plenty of times in the past (Newcastle area). Are they generally considered better or worse than 156s?

I think there's a departure screen in the Weatherspoons attached to Liverpool Lime street? Can't remember for sure though.

I thought about clapham junction, but according to Wikipedia it has a bay.

Was just curious about this one. The most obvious one i can think of is Peterborough with 7 platforms and no bays but there must be a better one somewhere?
