    Helsby to Ellesmere Port

    The livery and interior of today is in my eyes the worst of the lot! I wish I knew it was in southport when it was, I do have the book and have just realised where I seen those pictures.

    Very good turn out for the Hooton helsby 150, as much as I hate 142's I wish it could of been due to the stuffy cooked up nature of the 156 on that particular day, but I still enjoyed it just like most of you did, and I don't think the driver will get into trouble as it was only a booked service...

    Smoking onboard the train

    I don't see what the big problem is, all the materials used on trains are fire - resistant. It wasn't too long ago when all Virgin and most recently GNER trains had smoking carriages.

    Future of the Intercity 125s

    the HST's maybe getting on a little now but I would still call it a premature death considering they have been well looked after and the excellent condition they are in. It was published by an official report that the majority of HST sets could easily manage to run till 2035!
