Stafford/Crewe Overnighter

[Smudger]

after carlise will anyone be interesed in this one,

we stay at stafford till the last train to crewe. stay there for 4 hours then go back to stafford which re opens at 4am.

what do you think

 

[Techniquest]

Crewe closes after the last trains so you'd be kicked out and have to do an overnighter outside the station!

 

[Smudger]

thought thats 24 hour

This has been discussed before as well and it was decided to do it at Carlisle, that's why there's a Carlisle one down and personally i don't see the point in doing it at Crewe. Carlisle would be the all-round better place.

If you want a real challenge try Machynlleth on a Saturday Night/Sunday morning.:roll:

Or even Shrewsbury.....

 

[Gizmogle]

Why do that when you could stay at Melksham or Brigg?
Or even Etruria! Now there's a challenge for ya!

cos most of us or some of us cant afford to go up carlise all the time, which is why i said after carlise,

it would mainly be at stafford

You say that buut....

You get a timber train running round, with a 57/3.
Enterprise, with anything on
Steel, 66 or a 60
And the RHTT, which you'll see 4 times at Shrewsbury, with 37s.
Numerous hellfire 158s

So, Shrewsbury anyone? :razz:

 

[Jord]

Hellfire 158s? i hope that a joke. . .

 

[Gizmogle]

158s are very hellfire! 158815 is named Gizzy 8)

What i have to say to that is - Bo*locks, all MU are crap so how the hell can they be hellfire

Maybe if you were to take a ride on or even see the Hellfire beast class 201 no. 1001 then your opinion on some multiple units might change.

[Jord]

With excpetions to them then, but i did forget about them, as i've never seen/heard one

The Arriva ones get ragged over tough gradients everyday, including Talerddig, their monsters

Everyone has a right to their own opinion, besides, you think 66s are hellfire

 

[Mintona]

158s are hellfire beasts compared to most stuff ie. 66s, 40s, 67s..

 

[Gizmogle]

Especially 158815 8)

 

[Jord]

Not quite 'hellfire' but i do think there fine, i actuallly like the ying, and think there good looking but some people despise them

158s more rateable than 40s?! AAAAA?!?

158s are more rateable than 170s though.

 

[Dennis]

158s are more rateable than 170s though.

Things must be getting desperate, contemplating whether 158's or 170's are more rateable....

You know the 158 trounces the 170

Yeh what hock:

I ain't contemplating, 158 wins over 170 in terms of rateability.

 

[Jord]

I think you are completely wrong there, 158s better than 40s? and 66? i doubt it, and i would rather travel behind a 67 than be on a 158!!!

Also wonder how long it will be until these post gets deleted

170s are supreme by a country mile!
