My daughter received her zip card today after applying online for it. I decided to top it up (£5) to test it. After topping up the balance is zero, it said about using a bus, barrier, yellow pad etc to apply it. It also says it has to be done in 4 days. My question is what happens in 4 days...

Yesterday (03-10-2024)afternoon there was a four hour line blockage near March, due to a broken down train. On X it was said it was a failed freight train. But on online maps it was iirc 5Q46 Nuneaton to Ely papworth. I'm guessing it was a diesel multiple unit or coaching stock off for...

As I was sat waiting time yesterday. 377401 arrived into Redhill on a Reigate circuit. What was odd is the unit has a 377/6 or 7 front vallance fitted with illuminated ditch light. At first I thought a 377/6/7 had escaped metroland. Just looks odd and out of place, are all units having this...
