    Dudding Hill Line

    What actually is this line used for, as it has no passenger services whatsoever and still has semaphore signalling?

    Which lines do you plan to do in 2013?

    I plan to do the GOBLIN some time in February. I just have to find Walthamstow Queens Road station first, it's tucked out of the way in the back streets of Walthamstow. :lol: I'll probably try and do the Greenford Branch Line and the Upminister Branch Line as well.

    railway stations that are still opened but no longer accessible or serve passengers

    What happened to the services that used stations like Norton Bridge and Barlaston? Surely they must have been well-used, considering it's the WCML?

    Adele

    She's alright, but I much prefer the likes of Lily Allen and Kate Nash. :)

    First Group: General Discussion

    I don't think there'll be any more rationalisation/sell off up here with First Eastern Counties, as far as I can see. They sold their Kings Lynn operations to Norfolk Green last year, and closed up shop completely in Bury St Edmunds. Since then, they've entered a bus war with Ipswich Buses in...

    BBC Children's broadcasts.

    To be honest, the quality of the BBC's children's programmes has been on the decline for ages. I remember watching the likes of Grange Hill, Raven, The Basil Brush Show, BAMZOOKi, ChuckleVision, Demon Headmaster and many others when I was younger (9-13 years of age), and they were so bloody...

    Today marks the 10th anniversary of the death of Joe Strummer. :( I think spending the entirety of today listening to The Clash is a very good idea. mh0orhvcxBY KHtTkKNAbWQ RIP Joe (21st August 1952-22nd December 2002) :cry:

    This thread needs more Gallagher. :D hwd7Zu8W9h4 It's also the most 'Christmassy' song in my music collection, which is apt as this was released back in December 1994...

    Prisoners Voting

    The government should just ignore that embarassing charade that is the ECHR entierly. As far as I'm concerned, commit a crime in society, you lose most of your rights, including that to vote.

    Sprinters operating in London

    Technically, 158/159s are Sprinters. They were marketed as 'Express Sprinters' by BR. 153/155/156s were 'Super Sprinters', whilst the 150s were the original Sprinters...

    Sprinters operating in London

    Looking for photos of Anglia Railways Class 150s on Flickr, I stumbled across this, which is 150229 sitting at London Liverpool Street. Which I found especially unusual. Which made me wonder, apart from Silverlink's 150s on the GOBLIN and SWT's 158/159s, have any other Sprinters been used on...

    The weird thing is, I've spent Saturday listening to those exact artists. :-o:s

    Scum Class - Top Gear 'train'

    Yeah, I'd agree, implement Scum Class ASAP! Anyone wearing grey trackies, a hoodie and listens to dubstep crap are restricted to this class, and this class only! :p

    EMU Noisy compressors

    The 315s and LU C-Stock are pretty damn loud. The old 1967 stock on the Victoria Line (RIP :cry:) often had a few cars with loud compressors.

    Greater Anglia Liveries Discussion

    The one on loan from ATW. I should know, I was one of the poor buggers on that train who had to endure that ukelele band! :evil:

    South London Line Class 456s

    What will the 456s be used on after this weekend? I'd imagine they'd be used to strengthen other Southern suburban services with 455s until they're transferred over to SWT, but I could be wrong. :)

    Predicted Mayan apocalypse.

    If I'm honest, I'm getting slightly bored of this crap. I look forward to waking up on the 22nd of this month with nothing worse than a mighty hangover from my friend's Lord of the Ring's themed birthday party...

    locos going to be scrapped

    I read somewhere that 47829 suffered major engine failure a few years back, so I suppose it was beyond economic repair. A shame really. :|

    Ah, the musical thread. I must refrain from posing here too often. :wink: And what better way to start off with this track from Leicester's finest. 1PAu52W7k1c
