    Oddball Journeys (Trivia)

    There are Brighton to Newhaven Harbour services that do not continue to Seaford for whatever reason. Spontaneous, today there is one at Newhaven harbour at 1241, and one at 2141. Everything else continues to Seaford.

    Best and worst coffee shops/chains etc

    I only ever go to Gregg's, and Costa regularly because; - Greggs is cheap especially with reusable cup - Double beans on Costa reusable cup so 5 coffees gets you enough beans for a large of any kind.

    Bizarre GWR map

    Okehampton is mostly 150 so I'm not sure why that is seen as a regular turbo served route. If I was a customer and saw that map, unfamiliar with train types, id therefore assume falsely that my okehampton train was a turbo... True 165/166 do occasionally go to Okehampton, but predominantly it's...

    How do you see what diesel locomotives run?

    If you check the Class 70 Workings thread, there is a list of active loco workings. Freightmaster timetables usually list booked traction and if you look at various groups.io pages like se-gen, there's usually advance working notices for the likes of DCR 56s etc. The 70 thread has literally...

    DCR locos

    Nice to have 56103 down my patch today in Newhaven. Makes it worth going out for a change. Anyone know if this is a regular flow to Newhaven? Some reason they can't go to cliffe instead which is presume closer?

    Railway 200 : 'Inspiration' touring train

    Just seen this is at Lewes one of my locals, from today Thursday until Saturday 4am. With all the kids at school, what is the point if its not hanging around for the weekend? I thought the idea was to inspire children into getting into the railway but if they're finishing school at 3.00-3.30...
