Mileage Competition 2015

[Segedunum]

Well that's 13007 from me after two successful SP rangers!

 

[507021]

Following my trip away I'm on I'm now on 3,894 miles and 65 chains

 

[Techniquest]

I expect to have an update soon, not a big one but will probably do it after Monday's trip, wherever that'll be to!

Which reminds me, does anyone have the mileage for Ebbw Vale Town to Ebbw Vale Parkway?

 

[alex17595]

Still on 4953, haven't touched a train since I went to the SVR on the 28th May!
Saving up for Switzerland!

 

[hassaanhc]

Half of 2015 is now complete

My total so far is 6609 miles, 37 chains.

After a rather pathetic June (only 238m 25ch), I'm now on 4881m 62ch. July and August are looking to be much better.

7802 for me!

I'll have half-time mileage figures (well not 100% accurate yet) soon. I've not got a very good July ahead of me, the last 4 days of the month will make up for it though! Most of August is lined up to be quiet too, first 3 days busy then quiet until the end of the month. September is looking to be quiet mileage wise but a little different at least!

Looking forward to the rip reports

I'll be adding about 700 miles in the next 2 weeks

 

[Techniquest]

Nice, very nice! I'm giving up some of my available slots for trips this month, too much work on so sacrificing the next two Mondays (my usual bashing days are always Mondays) to get it done. It all helps pay for #10thbasherversary, so it's all good.

My RM has expired so I can't even see what I've got at all on there currently. I'm rather hoping to get in touch with Mr Cairns later and get it renewed, if I don't get busy planning my European bash again!

 

[postye]

A very slow start to the month due to the fact I could hardly walk for the first 10 days of the month and having to cancel my first 2 bashes. Fortunately I managed to reschedule and fit in both alongside having had a couple of days up north to get the Cumbrian 37's and cleared a heap of track in the Lancashire area.

So my mileage for June comes out at 2236 with a 6 months total of a respectable 14112 (excluding light rail as I keep forgetting to record LUL and I'm too lazy to work out the conversions on the others).

Things will quieten down in July with no planned days out and a 3 week holiday with the Mrs, fortunately mostly by rail so I should get a minimum of around 850miles and might just hit 4 figures.

August I hope will be looking a lot better though, having taken advantage of Virgins seat sale

 

[CallySleeper]

If anyone knows any German mileages, a bit of help would be appreciated please!

 

[FQ]

Does anyone know what the mileage is between Stratford-Upon-Avon and Stratford Parkway? Strangely it isn't on Railmiles.

Thanks!

I've got it down as 1m 52ch on my record

 

[Techniquest]

I could do with Ebbw Vale Parkway to Ebbw Vale Town mileage

 

[postye]

I could do with Ebbw Vale Parkway to Ebbw Vale Town mileage

I've not done that bit yet (hoping to do the branch next month) so don't have a record yet, although the network rail press release at the opening lists it as "approximately 1.5m"

Official figure for Ebbw Vale Parkway to Ebbw Vale Town according to the Network Rail western sectional appendix is 1m32ch.

Feels much longer than that! Granted, coming out of Parkway heading to Town the gradient marker does indicate a 1 in 52 climb, how long for I don't know.

Many thanks for the mileage figures, once I get my RM back online I'll be getting that sorted!

 

[dcd]

Up to 12140 after 14 day All Line Rover.

 

[FQ]

What is the mileage for the Ecclesbourne Valley Railway (Wirksworth to Duffield and Wirksworth to Ravenstor)

Thanks!

 

[postye]

1242 miles added in July, more than anticipated, taking my running total up to 15354

August could be a bumper month with 8 days planned out on the rails so could well come close to overtaking last years total of 18469

 

[crehld]

What is the mileage for the Ecclesbourne Valley Railway (Wirksworth to Duffield and Wirksworth to Ravenstor)

Thanks!

Wirksworth to Duffield = 8m26ch
Wirksworth to Ravenstor = 0m50ch
--- old post above --- --- new post below ---
At the end of July I'm on 9241!

 

[hassaanhc]

Been meaning to ask this: On the Spa Valley Railway, what is the distance from Eridge to Tunbridge Wells West, and is it the same in reverse?

Thanks
--- old post above --- --- new post below ---
At the end of July, I sat on 7383 miles 27 chains. A day out on Saturday 1 August has now moved me to 7511 miles 43 chains

Wirksworth to Duffield = 8m26ch

I've got it as 5 miles exactly both ways.

 

[CallySleeper]

A 575-mile round trip last weekend and a near thousand mile trip the weekend before lifts me into the top 10 (a personal result) with 8,900 miles. An ambitious target would be 15,000 miles by the end of the year, but even with trips planned most weekends this month and a couple of longer trips, I'm not sure if I'll do it or not...

 

[507021]

Having finally managed to add up my recent mileage I'm now up to 6,615 miles and 75 chains

 

[dcd]

Anyone know the direct distance from St Pancras to Avignon TGV please.

 

[Techniquest]

I know I'm falling down the league table a lot, without a doubt, but until I sort out my RM subscription I cannot give a total yet.

Indeed, if I am unsuccessful in renewing my subscription I will be starting on a spreadsheet of my own. That's a daunting task when you realise it would have to cover almost 12 years...
