An Elephant sized gap

[VTPreston_Tez]

Class 444s and Dorchester South never went well together. The gap was monstrous.

Basingstoke's Platform 4 has quite a height > train difference, most notable when alighting or boarding a Voyager - which are rather high anyway.

Platform 14 at MAN with two 185 sets, the rear door has an amazing gap, way out of any RGS' specs!

They won't have had time to fix it since I posted this on page 2, it was only a few weeks ago...

The P8 track also has a significant cant to allow a useful speed for through trains.

Ahh, that explains why the non-stop trains go that way.

It's almost a shame there isn't a Down Fast Loop as well.

Sorry, that's quick browsing during long periods of revision for you! Still quite a drop though and as I had last weekend - an absolute pain with a MTB bike!

It's definitely one where the on-train announcements are probably a useful reminder, but as usual people will probably tune them out because with some TOCs they are warned at all stations without justifiable reason...
