What is best option for Sunday, coming in car from M25 from the West, East Grinstead is closer but how much of car park is taken out at East Grinstead for Rail Replacement? Never been there on Rail Replacement days so I don't know if it's half taken or if no parking would be available?
Thank you for the link AlterEgo! Found the First Class section and posted details and pictures of tickets there
Had I been on a non-advance First I'd have probably done the 1538 IET to Didcot and then another one from there to Chippenham, out of interest I assume using a later service on an...
Hello all,
On Tuesday 25th I did a day return from Chippenham to Oxford with Advance First tickets both ways. The way out to Oxford on the 0935 was an IET but the 1504 Oxford back to Chippenham (booked train, Advance First as I say) was a 165 vice, so no First Class. Personally was a bonus as...
Oh!! The 1604 HST? In that case we did cross paths, I saw that come in as I was on the 158 in the opposite platform on the 1651 Montrose - Iverurie up to Stonehaven
:lol: I noticed your post, double checked the date and thought snap!! Bren up here as relief driver for one of our coach tours for the day, was back at Montrose by 1530 so had time for a spin to Stonehaven to knock that off, using the Break of Journey to knock off Laurencekirk on the way back...

What a mess the bus system is around Glasgow Central, no info on bus stops or app on what the alterations are.
First thing was walked up from Central to CeX at the top end, having done a fair amount of walking thought I'd be lazy went to Renfield Street for a bus to Central Station. Turns out...
Hello all,
I am creating a Rail Replacement 2026 Review video for YouTube, not a profit video just a hobby project so apart from Adobe Premier program to make it, I don't have creation tools I only make the YouTube video pictures on Canva.
I'd like to make a sectional map for each area where...
Was on rail replacement duties all day Sunday, only saw one High Experiences Scania out, didn't spot any numbers initially until I passed it again and saw the rear, the number is on the back in some stylised font almost camouflage with the rear livery took me a few seconds to notice it
Appears to be two Wright's Electroliners though I only saw one in their today, yhe other one someone else seen at the back was a purple liveried one allegedly for Stonehenge tour
Anyone heard the strange TikTok ad on the radio (think it was on Heart or Capital, no doubt on others) end is the sound of some steam loco with a whistle and distinctive chuffing sounds with the voice over saying 'and thats the sound of a Class 73 Electro-Diesel Locomotive..apparently' is it...
Very strange, Pullmans could have been re-routed then seems like they would rather ditch it than work out an alternative
It's just a pain when I planned around it, now cancelled my work holiday I booked an Annex in Bicester but I went for the more expensive flex booking, so no payment until...
I thought it would be easier to hold off cancelling early or re-route via the WCML as an option the S&C part isn't an issue, not sure if a re-route is that straightforward and how many were more wanting to do the Costal bit, either way the only one remaining is the one that goes via the Tyne &...
Midland Pullman S&C and Costal tours binned, I received this today for the one in August I was going to do:
Shame as that's another S&C tour I booked on that's been canned, I tried with Pathfinder but they kept getting binned, and now this one. I've not done the S&C on a rail tour yet, looks...
Yes trying to figure out how many were done I understand it's 250 limited as a signed edition, just don't know if there was any standard prints as well, or literally only 250 prints ever done, as mentioned must be publicity to have the logo too, will contact Philip on the site thank you for the...
Hello all
Went down to Shepton Flea Market yesterday, didn't find anything until near the end where I found a framed print of a Voyager on the Dawlish Sea Wall by artist Philip Hawkins, and on the bottom was his signature with numbers 66/250
I liked the look of this so snapped it up for £30...
I know if the crossing is just past a station the crossing will be down beforehand even if something is stopping there IIRC for safety reasons if a train overshoots the platform. The crossing past South Acton is round the corner but the junction off to Gunnersbury is 25mph, coming from a...
Hello all,
Trying to find video reference but cab rides seem to be from Richmond towards Willesden, and any other youtube video from the platform only shows the signal once the train is leaving for Richmond
For a route set from South Acton to Gunnersbury, is the starter signal south of the...
Ahhh! That explains that thank you very much!! Wondered if it was an error or something as I say it didn't add up, thanks for the clarification!
Out if interested if something like that came up as an error like on a normal weekday, then I assume printing the suggested schedule from National...
The 56's are apparently on 6V23/6M18 today (15th) tomorrow and Friday.
Yet to see these today I do actually have time to go to Westbury and see these, but following previous patterns on RTT, these seem to leave Merehead late then fly round the Westbury avoider, happened last Monday could happen...
