Awesome. Thanks for confirming

Hey guys With all the hot weather we've had this summer, steam on railtours is still being substituted with diesels on an ad-hoc basis as of this week. Not to be alarmist or anything, but how likely is this double header to still go ahead as planned?

BIt of a long shot, does anyone know if the Bure Valley is operating steam next weekend (Aug 29th)?

Theyve turned back one of the Bradford Forster Square trains (225 set) at Leeds. Left at 6:55pm https://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/service/gb-nr:C02077/2026-08-16/detailed#allox_id=1 This one. Fingers crossed nothing else goes wrong Haha!

IBM in Scotland on the line to Wemyss Bay is the other obvious example

The South Western Main Line has well and truly gone down the toilet, due to 'a fire on property near the railway' with delays of over 100 minutes. Not great as ive got a Red Jet in Southampton to catch at some point tonight!

Ah great, plenty of time! :lol: Thanks for confirming

Hey guys Thinking of seeing Sarah Siddons this Saturday. If i was to tap in at Baker Street, how long would it take before it times out at the other end at Rickmansworth and i have to pay the max fare? (i would probably be spending up to 30 minutes on the platforms)

Well, hopefully this wont be a problem for much longer, as work has (fairly) recently started on building a Sturry Village Bypass

Just watched Sarah Bell's latest video of Ravensthorpe Junction. Why is there a random stub of the Huddersfield bound platform left over when the rest of the station has been completely erased?

Well no, as Journey Planners automatically show the non stop services via the East Curve. Splitting the ticket at DPW ends up being about £2 more than direct. Hence my question. (FWIW i was fairly certain it was valid, i just didnt want a confrontation at the ticket gates Haha)

Perfect, thanks!

Hey, me again Is a Off peak return between the above stations valid on the stopping services via Didcot Parkway (specifically want to alight at DPW as well?

Cheers

Is an 'any permitted route' off peak reurn valid via Maidstone-Paddock Wood-Tonbridge-Redhill-Guildford-Reading as well as via London? I know that several years ago there used to be a 'not valid via London' ticket, but this hasnt turned up in the Southeastern journey planner when i checked a...

Ive just watched the latest video from Sarah Bell. I was under the impression that Dewsbury was being reduced to 2 tracks in order to increase linespeed *, but in the video they seem to of reinstated all 3 tracks, is this no longer the case? (* i might have just misinterpreted something along...

Hey One of the best (from a personal POV!) railway resources on the web seems to of dissapeared without much fanfare. When trying to access the site it comes up with the Error 404 message, does this mean its gone for good?

Hey guys, Currently planning a trip to the West Country for the bank holiday weekend coming up. Im aware timings being released on RTT are somewhat hard to come by for raitours (sometimes up to just 24 hours bfore the railtour is due to depart), but with all that said: Does anyone know the...

A few years ago me and a mate were booked to go on a railtour to the West Somerset Railway. It was due to depart Paddington at an ungodly hour so decided to leap frog it to Reading and catch it there, with the bonus of a much cheaper breakfast. We arrived on Paddington concourse and used RTT...
