    Kent & Essex Tram (KenEx Tram)

    Not sure if it's been posted before (I did search but couldn't find anything really, but of course can be corrected :) ) It seems like an interesting idea to be fair. (I did find similar with an Essex Tram, but thought that this might be different enough for a new post.) KenEx Tram | Initial...

    Southeastern Question and Routing

    This may seem random but thought that I'd ask here - I have tickets from Gillingham to Chester - although Virgin trains I can only catch the specific train (I know that bit), although I have been given a timed train for the Southeastern part (in this case 5:30 Gillingham to Victoria), my...

    Class 375s and Ebbsfleet International

    This may sound strange but i noticed that the uk signalling ends at the end of the platform 5/6 at Ebbsfleet international (the Cab Signalling starts after that from Appearance and signage - which of course only the 395s have out of the SE Stock). My question in theory could a Class 375 or...

    Hi, I was wondering if anyone could help, currently i'm looking to upgrade from my Compact camera (a Casio EX H15 - although while its fairly good at certain things including its Super Macro / 10x optical zoom), its only really good in very good sunlight).

    Chatham to Marylebone (Zone 1-6 Travelcard the only way?)

    I recently decided to go for the £10 Chiltern go further ticket, although obviously though I would have to get to Marylebone first. Although I'm finding that the only ticket that is available is for about 19.50 which is Chatham - London 1 - 6 Travel card. Was wondering if anyone else knew is...

    Weekend Jobs on the Railways (SE area)

    Hi, I'm just wondering if Railway companies have weekend part time positions, I always look at Southeastern but only ever seen "management" or engineering positions and vary rarely conductors or driver positions. I was wondering if any of either Southeastern, Southern, London Overground or in...

    Season Ticket Question

    This may sound daft but would it be possible to buy a season ticket from any station (for example - a bit extreme but say - buying Dover Priory - Faversham from say Inverness). Also how do railway staff feel about railway vouchers? only asking this because I have a few of them and they are in...

    Youtube and stolen video?

    I'm just wondering if anyone knows what to do when someone has stolen video on youtube, in this case someone has uploaded my own videos that I originally uploaded to google videos 5 years ago. (They aren't the best since they were my first videos and obviously aren't anywhere near as good as the...

    Southeastern Question? Being removed?

    I've heard on the radio and on the television that apparently MPs and the RMT Unions want Southeastern to be stripped of its franchise. I'm just wondering if any of that was actually true? (since i know the media twists everything!) As far as I know south eastern haven't been that bad? (I...

    Southeastern, HS1, New Deal Railcards and Tickets

    I have a new deal railcard, since I'm currently unemployed (not something that I'm proud of - but I'm not one of those cheating types though) I bought a ticket (Saturday Morning) from the conductor on the train at Aylesham, (an off peak return) to Arlesey. I asked the conductor for the HS1...

    Voyagerplan?

    I'm just curious what exactly is the voyager plan, from what I can tell its a sort of timetable and planning program, but from the searches that I have made on google, the only things I can get is either, the "Intrepid Class" - USS Voyager (i.e. Star Trek Voyager), Class 220 / 221 plans, a LG...

    Noticed a new signal at Aylesham (Nr Canterbury)

    I think Network Rail are puttings signals (LED ones I think) at all the stations between Canterbury East and Dover, or at least (Aylesham, Adisham and Beaksbourne). Although probably not that important, but I was mainly curious on how these would work with the semaphore signals at Shepherdswell...

    Various Videos around London / Bridwater (720P) (*updated*)

    These are fairly old now, well from 11/05/2010 although I only had a chance to add these yesterday. I managed to take 47 videos (well 46 with my Camera and one with my phone!). (although probably no where near as good as any of the other videos on this site though!) To see all of the list -...

    Crossrail Question?

    I'm not sure if this has been answered before, but I've noticed that a lot of the Sub-urban / Local rail traffic would go through on the crossrail route (that is when it is finished or if it is finished!) instead of going to Paddington or Liverpool Street), would this mean that less trains would...
