Hey all, on Saturday 16th May I was waiting at Milton Keynes Central to travel on 1F32 18:15 Avanti service to Liverpool Lime Street. As the train approached MKC you got the usual announcement that the next arriving at platform 6 is the 18:15 Avanti service to Liverpool Lime Street etc but the...

I work for a big window company in lincoln and I witnessed an accident where a bloke put his hand into an extractor fan, luckily he was wearing gloves which kept his hand in tact (his little finger was hanging off by a tiny thread of skin) now if he wasn't wearing gloves, he would of been known...

Ok ive seen the picture taken back in 2008 and theres no slagheap. What if the colliery put another slag heap there once all of this is sorted, i will be very interested to see what lessons have been learnt from this. --- old post above --- --- new post below --- Im hoping they dont put...

I notice in the video they want to move some of the soil into the valley in the colliery which is actually in fact the path i walked down so i hope they dont fill it

Whos going to foot the bill? If it was my decision i would split the repair cost 50% network rail 50% hargreaves What does everyone else think?

Here is a picture i took, as you can see network rail have removed large sections of the track. Edit- i cant understand why its rotated the picture sorry guys

I was thinking the exact same thing

Theres been no rain for about 2 1/2 weeks, even the field next to the landslide is starting to dry up which is currently waterlogged

I have heard that the slag heap has stopped moving as there has been no movement from the probes which have been inserted into the ground for 6 days. Network rail are now on standby waiting for the all clear from Hargreaves. Then let the repair commence

Hi guys, i went on sunday 24th feb and there was no exclusion zone. You can get right up to it in the field next to the line. I would recommend you take wellies as it is very muddy. If you have a car i parked on Kirton lane and walked down Hugh hill lane.

I may go up today and get some pictures, does anyone know if hugh hill lane is still open

Its currently tipping it down in doncaster, i bet it will be worse come daylight

I was on it too all the way to Lincoln, Alot got off at Newark and there was still quite alot on for Lincoln. I can see this service being a popular one.

I have always wondered if they could operate Meridians as 2 cars. Would be nice to see them increased to 9 cars again. Is there any Meridian drivers on here? Many Thanks

I think Grand Central are a very good operator, they just need to sort the class 180's out and then i would say they are the best operator out there!

It would be good to see a HST sat in Lincoln every morning, does anyone know if they are going to use a full length HST or a shortened due to Lincoln's platform not being very long, its just long enough to fit a 5 car 222

Is 180104 hiding behind bounds green depot

that would be brilliant! i do hope its true but i wouldnt of thought they would run as many services as East Coast would of done

i am absolutely gutted about this as i live in lincoln and i was looking forward to these new services, but who knows whats going to happen when a new franchise takes over? Hopefully they might reinstate the services.
