Anyone seen 350123 lately. It hasn't been shown as active on RTT for quite a while now. Only asking because it's my last one for haulage. Thanks if anyone can reply to my question.

I have noticed since the introduction of class 807s on the Liverpool Lime Street to London Euston services regardless of unit class used,shows all services showing 'Reservations compulsary' on RTT. Does this mean you cannot just turn up on the day and buy a ticket to use on those services?

Whilst visiting Birmingham yesterday,I noticed that the trams around Grand Central stops were running in battery mode rather than pantograph up even though the wires are there. Is this common practice now during Street operation or was there a problem. TIA

Been having problems getting through the ticket barriers at Liverpool Street station with my All Line Rover. Barrier staff claiming my ticket was not valid. I explained to them I travelled on the Elizabeth line and not LUL. I showed them the rail rover guide for my ticket where it clearly states...

Sorry if this is in the wrong place or if its been discussed already. Was wondering if seated accommodation on Caledonian Sleeper is available to passengers not wanting a bed on the overnight trains out of London? Or is it seating for sleeper car passengers only? And can I use an All line...

Hi Everyone. I have some mk1 and mk2 coaches which I want to convert to departmental stock,so I would like to try and find someone who sells the numbers,waterside or other for 00 gauge trains. I tried FOX transfers but haven't found what I wanted as yet. If anyone can post me any links to what...

Hi Everyone. Not sure if this post is in the right place so apologies if it is. I am looking for information regarding a fleet of black Bitumen TTA tanks I used to see once a week in Newport South Wales back in the 90s. All I know is the train ran in both directions once a week,usually...

Does any Royal Train movements show up on RTT ? I suspect due to the high security in question,it probably doesn't? The Train came to Cardiff this morning but couldn't find it? I know when it used to arrive the station was evacuated. Not sure if that still happens now though.

Hi Everyone Trying to book advance tickets for 0716 Chester to Cardiff Central via Wrexham....the class 67 hauled service. According to NRE I am being put on to other services! Does the 67 service actually run and if it does,why can I not get advance tickets for this journey. Thanks in advance...

Just a silly question as I ain't 100% sure But what does the initials LIP stand for? Someone asked me and the only answer I could come up was something like Loco inspection point. Could someone clarify please. Thanks in advance.

Saw this in Liverpool Lime Street earlier. What is the reason for a renumber?

Reeltime trains shows this service as Electric locomotive hauling 331tons 1403 Hazel Grove to Blackpool North? Also of note,RTT shows set allocations for all Northern services but not this one?

thought i was seeing things? The pantograph coach has Number 98991? 1597849690 https://flic.kr/p/2jxYrkR

hi everyone Anyone have info on allocation of mk1 sleeping cars back in the early 80s. I want to model an 80s sleeping car formation. Doesn't matter what region,but if I can find info for any of the sleepers that once operated including M E W or Sc prefix rakes and numbers if anyone has any...

Thought I'd share this with you. 158848 passing through Bristol Parkway on 0704 Heaton- Bristol Barton Hill. Not sure if it's a regular movement but surprised me!

Hi everyone. Hoping to plan a couple of days trip to Dublin soon. I hope to do a 3 day midweek visit if all goes well. Just need advice on train day ranger/rover ticket types if there are any available. I would like to sample some IE stock,The Dublin Dart system and the Dublin Trams. Any all...

Travelled from Maidstone West this evening heading to Bognor Regis. Changing at Tonbridge,then Redhill,Gatwick Airport and Barnham! From Maidstone West our train was running 9mins late with 9mins between trains if it were on time. As it was 9mins late,we asked station manager at Maidstone...

Formerly Merseyrail Electrics I somewhat took for granted this operator and never got to photograph any until it changed hands. I think I have one photo of an Arriva 508 in poor light at Hooton. Ha,it was about half 7 at night lol. I have some of Merseyrail yellow with black white n grey...

On September 27th,I did the 1255 Chiiltern Trains service out of Moor Street which I thought would have been a class 68. It was in fact 168003. Good job though as it was a winner lol. Anyway,I was wondering if the diagrams have changed as I am planning another trip,although I prefer the 68 tbh...

Was wondering actually how many 67s still see service these days as they are little used. I know one works Gerald and one on the North Wales coast. How many are allocated to ECML Thunderbird duties.? And do any ever appear on freight. I guess the majority of the class are stored rotting away at...
