    Stratford Gets £104m

    It needs more because it's going to be the Olympic Park. Teddington doesn't need £104 million pounds because: a). It isn't getting a DLR extension. b). It isn't getting a new station with trains to Paris. c). It isn't hosting the Olympics. d). It isn't going to represent London during the Olympics.

    St. Albans Flyer Discussion

    Tom, you are wrong!! A Flier put behind a Metro isn't slower, it's delayed. It's timetabled to be faster than a metro, that's the point - even if its just a minute faster, it's faster. If the time between a West Hampstead and St Albans becomes the same for a flier and a metro, then the flier...

    St. Albans Flyer Discussion

    And then the Fliers continue. The point is, "Fliers" are faster than "Metros" - that's why they're called "Fliers", that's what I said previously, and if you dispute it, then you need to buy a timetable.

    Lymmy stock refurb

    Never noticed a headboard on the Lymmie before. Anyway, the City Fliers were called the City "Fliers" because they were faster than the other services - all station stoppers. The Lymington line trains are called the "Lymington Flyer" because it is a heratige line.

    Yes, that's always annoying :(. I once waited 15 mins on that camera for a train, one comes along, then someone pops up and starts looking at the pub across the road.

    When I took it it was a Virgin Voyager in Stockport Station. But it seems whoever is in charge of the camera can change a still image....

    Ok. Its done in Jasc Paint Shop Pro 9! Get some pictures, select different parts of the train, (wheels, doors, lights, etc). If they're all the same angles you might want to rotate them a bit. Put one picture then a single piece of text with a number, (in my case 4), another picture, 4, another...
