FYI, the 195s are back regularly on express Hallam services as of today

I honestly thought the TRU was £2.9bn Where is £13bn coming from ??

Wouldn't 4bn be enough to even electrify the Calderdale line? That would lead to more faster and frequent trains to Bradford . You could even include ETCS in the package, am I right??

I looked at a cab-ride video of a journey between Huddersfield and Manchester Vic. Also looking at Google Earth, would there be provision for quad tracks between Huddersfield and Marston. From my view it could just about be done , but remodelling is needed. (From my limited Knowledge, correct...

The Hydroflex has so much potential and it is a great step for decarbonisation. But then you look at the class 769s and how long the delays with the engines took. How much more with the new hydrogen equipment. Doesn't look promising production wise

The A64 York road Guided Busway I feel is highly underused. 4/14 bus routes even use the Busway. It's a weird situation, Bus companies are reluctant to acquire guided wheels due to expenses, but it's even more expensive for the council to scrap the guided Busway.

https://www.railjournal.com/fleet/wabtec-to-overhaul-40-class-158s-for-angel-trains/ Looks like 16 EMR Class 158s are going to be overhauled and refurbished. So I'm guessing these as well as the 170s would be their fleet for the route. Remember, the class 171s aren't likely to be released any...

Are BMUs possible on this route? Bombardier and Hitachi have stated that their battery units can reach 90-100 kilometres (50-62 miles). According to Wikipedia, the entire Harrogate line is 62 kilometres (39 miles). With wires at each end and Harrogate being in the middle, its possible for BMUs...

I'm confused. Hasn't there been Plans for the East Midlands Hub which suggests the east leg of phase 2b is still planned. Unless HS2 is Now planning to terminate there while continuing the leg towards Sheffield & Leeds on existing lines??

https://www.insidermedia.com/news/yorkshire/green-light-for-new-leeds-railway-station Looks like it's confirmed now Does that mean that Cottingley station will be closed as planned? In addition it also comes in line with the transpennine upgrade/electrification meaning that between Dewsbury and...

This may not exactly be 3rd rail expansion, but 3rd rail can be installed at stations with no OHLE. But for battery charging instead via a contact shoe. Northern raised this as a possibility at Windermere station.

That is still a possibility, with platform 0 at Leeds going to be completed from Dec 2020 - May 2021 But i do not know what the 331/1s would replace. 3 car 323s? That would lead to a surplus of 323s There should be more battery 331s really. (going of topic abit)

Can Leeds - Doncaster handle 2 X 3 car 331s?. Even that route seems to be very full at peak times but very empty during off peak hours.
