I seem to remember there being 4 a day of these from York via the Durham Coast and back down the ECML from Newcastle (or was it vice versa, age hasn’t been kind to my brain!)

Twitter has developed into a home of child like consumers whom like to "throw their toys from the pram" (to use a phrase) because nothing goes their way..

The Daily Mail reporter is a liar. The train was de-classified throughout the trip from London, therefore no one wouldve asked him for a first class ticket.

Jesus wept its only one train! There are plenty of other trains you can travel on... Oh wait a minute, some of you will probably object to getting out of bed earlier won't you - which, if you're that desperate for a drink, need to do.

Why oh why, must every thread involving the unions have certain people who are insistent on trolling involved in them. Jesus god what has gone wrong with this world. Some of you need to join a union and understand what its all about - nobody takes strike action likely for heavens sake, are...

Oh I quite agree, I travel a lot on the 0952 ex Aberdeen. I don't know what it is with that train, but the humans (and I use that term loosely) turn into animals with a drink in them shortly after crossing the forth bridge. I do recall an occasion where one set of gentleman started jumping...

The mysterious disappearance of Arriva in Glasgow City Centre.

well, i would like to think that, going off my own past expierience the Lead Official for the company in question would have communicated the issue of the strike fund payment down to the Local Reps on site, who in turn wouldve (or shouldve) organised their members. It appears, from what your...

I am now actively T-Total, in part due to ill health but mainly because I became alcohol dependant For years I was one of these people that drank everyday after work, not a day would go by where I didn't have a drink in some way shape or form. Deliberately towards the end I'd find myself...

Further delays on highland line due land slip at Pitlochry area also.

Thank you for resolving this one

Evening Ladies and Gents, can someone help me solve a argument between 3 retired auld fogies here. are 91's + coaches cleared to run over the tyne valley given the height of the tunnel between Haltwhistle and Bardon Mill? I ask this because i remember learning approx 4 years ago...

Lodging away from home depot, prior to me leaving the industry was 9hrs rest. I cannot recall the reason why Newcastle drivers lodge north of Edinburgh aswell as Edinburgh men, however its historical, if memory serves it was to do the the policy of "creating jobs" that the unions adopted -...

I find It interesting that some of you have mentioned something regarding ScotRail working the 'additional' HST north of Edinburgh. Before the concept of lodging was brought in by GNER at Edinburgh, the current Highland Cheiftan was worked by inverness crews between Inverness and Perth...

Carlisle Citadel, The Western Termini of the Tyne Valley Line

A lot of people forget that Bob Crow actually works to the instruction of the unions executive committee. He doesn't make the decisions, they do. It would appear that embers25 has an axe to grind here I don't know what it is though as I fail to understand the argument he's using, owing to the...
