Would anyone know what the DR1A units work around Vilnius please? Thanks in advance

Quick question on this one, I understand trains are diesel hauled throughout on this route, when is this expected to end? I believe there are repairs being made to the line after a storm, which have been ongoing for quite a while?

I know this is a photo of two 73s (138 and 130) at Clapham Junction but in background is what appears to be a prototype PEP unit. I know photo isn't great quality as it's a photo of a photo but can anyone confirm what unit is likely to be, please? Date is 28/3/89. Any information greatly...

I was looking at planning a trip to Portugal either February 2027 or May 2027 to cover Douro Valley turns on 1400s. Know there's been some fairly major infrastructure work going on there, is any planned for those dates, would anyone know or is it too far in advance to know? Thanks in advance

Was wondering if anyone could confirm whether or not the summer Koper to Budapest trains will be 363 hauled in Slovenia? I know one is now showing on Vagonweb as such but thought had heard a rumour likely to be 541s this year. Any info much appreciated.

My notes are somewhat incomplete around 2009-2011, have recoded 92041 on a railtour but no idea which tour, where it worked and on what day. Thanks in advance as any help appreciated.

Would anyone happen to have any idea of trains worked by locos vice units around Nordrhein-Westfalen, please? Assume changed since timetable change? I'm sure the 101s are still running and not particularly bothered about those but anything with a 110, 111, 112 or 114 of interest. Any...

I know a few trains around Wellington are still formed of ex BR mk2 stock and, obviously, loco hauled. It also looks like a few around Auckland may be. Does anyone have a definitive list of loco hauled trains around both cities, please? Considering heading out around March next year so keen to...

mods note - split from this thread: https://www.railforums.co.uk/threads/class-43-disposals.214407/ Believe they use less fuel. Also less of a pain when cold as don't have a preheat requirement.

Just seen two yellow V200s in Verona but, as seems to be normal with infrastructure locos, there are absolutely no identifications on the locos. I know there were a number of V200s originally sold which ended up in Italy so trying to identify these two may be clutching at straws but if anyone...

Is there a cheap local ticket I can get for travel around Porto that would allow me to do 1400 and 2600 hauled trains? It's just to save me using an interrail day.

Anyone know if there are any remaining passenger diagrams for Siena allocated 445s please? Any info appreciated. If there are, which locos are still serviceable? Thanks in advance.

This has come up in Russia invading Ukraine thread where suggestion about relying on cheap oil and gas from Russia could be overcome by small nuclear power plants but are these the answer? Nuclear waste remains radioactive effectively for ever but dwindles over thousands of years until can be...

I've noticed a lot of concrete electrification masks in various countries in mainland Europe, can anyone explain why, please?

Quick question, I'm taking my nephews, who will both be 15 at the time, to Italy and using high speed and Inter-City trains, do they still count as child fares as some sites say 14 and some say 15 inclusive? Went to get it right before buy tickets. Thanks in advance.

I'm planning on heading for Australia next year but have absolutely no experience so any information anyone has would be gratefully received. I have about 4 weeks and would like to stop of somewhere in Asia in the way out, if anyone knows of a country with a bit of interesting railway action...

What a pile of junk the new DB website is. On the old one I could click on a station and it would give me all departures for next hour; not any more unless someone has worked out how to do it? Are there any other timetable sites that I can use as DB one is no good anymore?

I know there was the Black Friday offer; usually have an offer on interrail tickets around New Year but seen nothing yet. Anyone know if there are likely to be offers on soon or is that not happening this year?
