Nope...

An, ahem, ' relief' train, sent somewhere to provide toilet facilities to those in need?!

Close, but no cigar

Light loco movement in Loco Sidings?

 

[HMS Ark Royal]

Light loco movement in Loco Sidings?

Nope - so far, BestWestern is the closest

Well it's worth a go)

 

[HMS Ark Royal]

Water delivery to a remote signal box.
Well it's worth a go)

Hmm... Thats also close, but no cigar still

 

[Peter Mugridge]

Light engine inspecting the line?

 

[HMS Ark Royal]

Light engine inspecting the line?

No... It is something to do with BestWestern and Phil's answers

Light engine taking a signalman to a remote signalbox?

 

[HMS Ark Royal]

Light engine taking a signalman to a remote signalbox?

No... Not a signalman, but it involves it going there for a reason

 

[Peter Mugridge]

Drinking water supplies.

[HMS Ark Royal]

Drinking water supplies.

No

Is it something to do with toilet facilities?

Something to do with it, yes

 

[trainmania100]

Train crew going to the signal box to use the toilet facilities?

 

[HMS Ark Royal]

Train crew going to the signal box to use the toilet facilities?

Had this question already - no, it is nothing to do with the train crew

 

[trainmania100]

I dont understand, why would it be related to toilets if it's nothing to do with people using them :-P

 

[Ash Bridge]

How about a supply of toilet rolls for the signalman?

 

[trainmania100]

How about a supply of toilet rolls for the signalman?

That must be it! Toilet supplies as the Singnaller probably ccan't leave the signal box

 

[HMS Ark Royal]

How about a supply of toilet rolls for the signalman?

You should be flushed with success - that is the correct answer. There was a situation where a signalman in the Wembley area had run out of toilet paper - after contacting the depot, an 86 was sent out with a supply of Andrex's finest to "relieve" the box

Your floor

 

[Ash Bridge]

I've just got to nip off to the LOO, so I'd better declare Open Floor whilst I'm away

 

[DasLunatic]

I'll take it.

Which TOC introduced portable X-ray machines and metal detectors at some of its stations?

 

[HMS Ark Royal]

I'll take it.

Great Western (post privatisation)

 

[DasLunatic]

I can't see anything about metal detectors in relation to GWR.

 

[HMS Ark Royal]

I can't see anything about metal detectors in relation to GWR.

I was thinking in relation to Heathrow services

 

[BurtonM]

Is Eurostar too obvious an answer?

 

[DasLunatic]

I was thinking in relation to Heathrow services

Good point, actually. Your floor.

 

[HMS Ark Royal]

Good point, actually. Your floor.

Hard to trick me, Good Sir... Many thanks for the floor

What was fairly ironic about the last run of a Class 58 in service?

Did it rescue a Shed?!

 

[DasLunatic]

Are you referring to the "Bone Breaker" railtour, in which someone broke their leg when the train collided with bufferstops at Walton-on-the-Naze?
