    Data Feeds

    I use php rdkafka library to consume the rail data marketplace stuff like train describer and Gemini The timetables are a bit more complicated as they're in CIF file format but the open rail data wiki has a lot on there to help. It's just a case of reading the lines properly and comprehending...

    Passenger train consists as Open Data

    No allocations received for over 6 hours as of 06:30 this morning, could be some missing gen today. (Checked my site against RTT so not just rail data marketplace).

    How could we increase the share of freight moved by rail?

    Presume cost is a big factor. For example Newhaven marine old station could either be extended further than the existing yard ( I'm sure this was an idea at some point), into the land to the east. A scrap company recently moved from the area, this could very easily have gone by rail. If paths...

    Class 68 Tesco DRS Query

    Obviously it's import for Tesco so they'll be loaded from the dock to Doncaster. Probably bananas etc. I'd say they're loaded each way but the containers may not necessarily be empty

    Brighton Belle On Test - 2025 onwards

    6V37 0953 Quainton Railhead to Tytherington route

    Acton isn't a DCR yard, presumably it costs money to use the ground crew to run it around there ? Whereas DCR do have their own facilities/ shared ownership at Wembley Just a guess

    GBRF confirms conversion of Class 56s to Class 69s

    To add to that, the lines ending with S are stored in serviceable condition as opposed to the likes of U (unserviceable), and X (on exam). Not sure why they're stored though? Other than RHTT and Eastleigh Hoo trips, they do nothing down south ...

    Freightliner Class 70 Workings

    I notice from may timetable the Mendips are still showing Freightliner sector, I'm guessing this is some sort of freightliner subsidiary and not a separate TOC? Vice versa the CMA bought intermodal shares are presumably staying freightliner, but obviously it would now be wrong to call heavy...
