Not sure if this one has reached the national news websites yet - from The Scotsman of 31/05/19: Seems to have happened on 1E19 ex Waverley 1431, arrived (and caped) at Berwick 181 minutes late (classed as "disorder" according to RTT). It's all happening this week....

Hello I am trying to check whether an off peak ticket i bought on the LNER website is actually valid for the return service. York to Manchester Airport, outward Saturday 4th May Sep 1321 so that's fine, but it gave me the return as my required option of departing Manchester Airport at 1819 on...

Hello Whilst passing the NRM at York on the train on a couple of occasions recently I've noticed a green 0-4-0 sitting on a low wagon on the sidings next to the main line at the museum. Firebox, cab, frames and wheels seemingly all present but awaiting restoration? Would anyone know which...

Sitting on the 1R35 at Waverley supposedly departing at 0945. The 0930 was cancelled and this service delayed due to "an earlier incident in the tunnel between Haymarket and Edinburgh". The display board can't make its mind up as to whether we are cancelled or not!

A question for drivers and other train staff - apologies if this has already been asked/answered elsewhere. Watching one of today's XC services roll into Newcastle Central Station, I couldn't help notice that the driver had his left-hand (non-platform side) door open as the train was heading...

The 1820 Newcastle-Morpeth service hit someone on the track near Benton Bridge, just north of Heaton Depot, at around 1825 tonight. My wife is on the train and reported that there was a "bump", the engines started to sound funny and then the train came to a halt about 200 yards further on...

Took this shot on Saturday from the top of the car park at Doncaster. Any ideas as to its identity much appreciated. Graeme
