I was thinking Woodhead but it's now mostly the Trans Pennine Trail, would be a lot of effort to uproot all that. Would be fantastic to reconnect more rural parts of South Yorkshire with Manchester though

Ahh, that's a shame - thanks though. I assume with this http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/C71482/2016/10/08/advanced saying DMU, I'll be out of luck

Having never travelled much on Chiltern before, I had some questions about the Business Zone weekend upgrade; do all mainline Banbury -> London Marylebone services have a BZ, or is it just Loco-hauled services? I'm travelling to London tomorrow with my Fiancée and hoping to upgrade. We may be on...

Thanks! :)

Could anyone possibly tell me what's been on the other end of 43127 this week? Thanks

Didn't have time to check the rear loco at Paddington on 1A77 yesterday, could someone please tell me what was at the other end of 43024? Thanks :)

I was on 1U02 from Reading to Bristol Temple Meads yesterday morning, and was in too much of a rush at Bristol to notice the far loco - the front was 43152, could anyone tell me the other please? Thanks

Not the most interesting topic or question - I usually do most of my travelling on Voyagers, but have a journey on a 350 tomorrow and was wondering which is the best place on the train to store luggage, i.e. is there a specific coach like there is on Voyagers? I would prefer not to end up with...

I'm not looking to debate whether or not strikes are essential, I'm just interested in the effects - I'm part of the younger generation and don't remember ever experiencing a rail strike. Assuming it goes ahead, what are the consequences? I was planning a journey at around 16:00 on the 5th from...

I watched it go past on the Dawlish Beach webcam and its just as normal - I suppose I saw it in a bad light, either that or my eyes are going..

I was walking through Birmingham this morning, and caught sight of the last Mk3 and rear loco on 1V44 before it went behind a building, and I'm almost 100% certain it wasn't the XC livery I always see when I catch their HST services - are they loaning a set today, or have they re-liveried their...

Thankyou very much!

Just been to the rugby in Cardiff, got 1L76 16:26 to Paddington afterwards and missed both ends, could anyone tell me the 43 locos on that please?

Thankyou very much!!

Hi :) Could someone please tell me which 390 was 18:23 Euston --> Wolverhampton yesterday, Saturday 25th October? I was in a rush and forgot to look getting both on and off. Thanks in advance! :)

So many things I hadn't thought of - thanks to all of you. The journey in question is in September, I'll let you know how it goes :D

Sorry yes, the North is a bit vague. We live in West Yorkshire, so Wakefield for ECML, Sheffield for MML and Manchester for WCML are all within about an hour (ideally placed really). Thankyou all for your advice, one thing I hadn't considered was changing at Birmingham for a break and then going...

First of all, sorry if this is in the wrong place, I'm relatively new and I'm not sure exactly where this might go I have a family member who gets very travel-sick and needs to travel on the train to London from the North - I'd recommended to him that he not get the WCML, as I don't think the...
