    Network Rail don't care about disruption, providing maintenance costs are saved: what could be done about this?

    Payments for all the experienced staff that were allowed to take voluntary redundancy? Fair enough, you can't always predict equipment failures, but when the first question asked is: "are trains being delayed?", and the answer is  no, then you can see where priorities lie. Some locations have...

    Heat related disruption 8 July 2026 onwards

    Nice to see so many 'ossing about train cancellations. Would they still complain if their train ran over a heat affected rail and was possibly derailed? :s
