    We're nice at St. Pancras :) Platform allocations are posted to the Departure Boards and announced from the control room (Zulu) only after the dispatchers (Charlie) have cleared the train as ready to board. Charlie doesn't announce ANY platforms unless the comms. system is down. Hotel...

    Bit of a c*ck up on the 1555. Two tankers left their passes on the train so we couldn't board it. HST service was short formed with a 5 car meridian. Signaller + control got involved so now the tankers are up the sh**ters. Caused problems for everything else as the HST was blocking platform 1...

    I have forewarned the staff... the FC lounge will be serving free coke to all buffer puffer customers... Yeah right... if Debbie's on you'll be out on your arse! But seriously they didn't know they had a railtour... and they've also been warned about Friday!

    The Worst Thing Ever built

    Acctually, no, we had more HST's in depots and on lease than in service today, due to 43058 being withdrawn*. :( AYE! *Jim - It has *another* oil leak at Chesterfield and they refused to clean it. Was deemed a fire hazard so the 43 was shut down and taxi's arranged.

    Well don't expect MML staff to be nice to any FCC users :). We're stretched enough already with 4 platforms and we have NO IDEA what we're going to do with more.

    Well, was shoved in the Info Desk again until 1 until Darren (the guy in charge of my work experience) came on duty at 1. Was given a brief look at the Lost Property office and shown the First Class lounge. The staff said I could help out there, so was in there until 5:20. Notes: Kings Cross...

    I was watching that, and I can remember some ridiculous brand name on the side, anyone remember what it was? And yes, I can also remember thinking "so how did they do that then" when the walked from the carriage to the supposed drivers cab!
