Sounds like you enjoyed it, though I can't see why (VT diversion aside)! 507/508s are awful IMO.

Blackburn Rovers update: We've never been worse.

"Not valid on trains timed to depart: •London Euston after 04:29 and before 09:26 or after 15:00 and before 18:45" The fact that 16:07 (and 17:07) is well within that afternoon restriction means you were in the wrong.

I was replying to the comment that said that it still happens, which isn't the case.

The 1120 MAN-SHF and 1742 DON-MAN were full in the rear 3 leaving Piccadilly and the front 3 leaving Doncaster, but no one was standing, I didn't look at the other unit on each train.

Not after coming up the WCML though.

Well League One won't be as easy as most of our fanbase think... Southend 2 Blackburn 1

Or sometimes the lights surrounding the door open button don't light up, and by the time you realise that they're broken the door has locked again :evil:

Well, given it was a service to Wigan...was it Will Grigg? :lol:

I have reservations for coach E on the 1120 MAN-DON so that one's also 6 car.

I've been allowed to travel an hour earlier than the train I was booked on before, on a VTWC service. There was no real reason for being allowed, very minor delays (10 minutes, if that) in the Birmingham area meant I wanted to get to where I was going ASAP in case it got worse. I haven't...

If they're planning on giving all the 390s and 221s a new livery before the franchise is out I think they should forward the details of whoever is doing it to Northern, they need a hand :lol:

Doesn't always work but the connection off the York-Blackpool service onto the Blackpool-Manchester service at Preston (xx47 or xx48 arrival to xx50 departure) is usually on the P1/P2 island. Handy for getting home after a match at Blackburn if I'm feeling like paying for LEY-BBN instead of...

Was that the game we won 3-1? I seem to remember us beating one of the 'big teams' at home a matter of weeks before our relegation was confirmed.

Quite a lot, it is about 30% of my life after all :lol: > Started high school (Sep '12) > Seen my team (Blackburn) go from the 1st tier (2012) to the 3rd tier of English football (now) > Made a lot of new friends at high school and lost contact with most friends from primary school >...

So there will be some services calling at both Adlington (Lancs) and Adlington (Cheshire)? :twisted:

Nice to see you enjoying some other traction instead of HST's all the time ;)

Wigan Athletic 14...Chorley FC Under 21s 0 you mean ;)

That's what I'm doing, and following our relegation there's quite a lot of 'new' grounds for me. Bradford, Rochdale and Shrewsbury away all before the end of September should ramp my mileage up a bit.

We sold Shearer for £15 million 21 years ago this week. He'd be one of those players going for upwards of £80-90 million in today's market. :evil: Cheeky little plug for my Facebook page dedicated to my quest to get to at least one football match every weekend (harder than it first seems...
