had that happen a few years ago with a Nightjet in hannover the day prior too me traveling at least had the rest of the day too shift plans

Really hoping that isn’t the case!

think we had the quickest stop i've ever seen at Didcot, less than a minute between stopping and heading off again, still no word on if we are getting cancelled at Reading or not

looking at traksy dont see anything moving now, everything is red again

correct, looks like gameplan is get trains too reading then terminate so SWR can take then too London BTP turned up at Kemble at one point so fear somebody decided to take their frustrations out on staff

slowly getting trains on the move again trains getting slots in reading that open up platforms at prior stations for trains too fit into, just left kemble with a 88 minute delay

stuck at kemble at the moment due too this

does anybody know why ES have such all over the place carriage placement that seems too be different every trip? you would expect a simple order of sleeper-couchette-seated but instead they seem to sandwich the sleeper carriages between couchette on both sides and sometimes a seated coach...

did a NoL set ever reach Scotland?, they did the white rose but not sure if they ever got further than the midlands? a NoL would make more sense as they are shorter and have been in storage since 2014

dont think you even need 300km/h, in theory a 250km/h Stadler SMILE made too UK specs could work for way less that or a tack on order too the HS2 fleet

ah yea, was using the ticket on my apple wallet that doesn’t store that the pdf says 15:53 and that tracks with other sources, just strange that the Email gets it wrong as a UTC/BST issue would display as 14:53 instead

as said its a anytime single so doesn’t show a time at all

its in the main part of the Email not the summary

its a Anytime Single so not end of the world if i end up on the wrong one of the two trains but conscious one of them i have a seat reservation on

looks like somebody mixed up time zones got a Avanti Train too Manchester later today and found the website shows the time of 15:53 but the email i got yesterday shows it as 16:53 instead Website (image shows 15:53 - 18:06 Euston to Manchester) Email (image shows 16:53 - 19:06 Euston to...

what i could see way more as an option (assume you had spare mark 5 carriages and added KVB too the class 92) would be a corridor train that rather than going all the way too Europe, ended up at the international side of St Pancras for direct connections too Eurostar/Virgin/etc reduces scope...

lack of KVB also makes the French side tricky as well as nowhere in TVM land that can be used for a loco swap (i believe idea was for some AWS at Calais-Ville to enable that to be used) if being realistic (as much as you can with such a idea), locomotive + carriages would not be the best option...

this is kind of my point why are people talking of multi million pound HS1-HS2 links for a service that would never recover that money look at whats possible for cheap now with existing infrastructure not what needs total rebuilds of what we already have too work keep it simple, 1 maybe 2 200m...

even assuming a total of 5:00-5:30 hr i don’t that’s much of a problem especially for an initial service

as every North of London Service would need too use Classic compatible stock for anything bar Birmingham Services, do you really need too use HS2? London - Paris is already only 2:20hr , using the WCML and the existing HS1 link only adds 2hr more for Manchester and even then that’s the same as...
