Where is CSL supposed to be representing, given it is the code for Codsall?
Apologies, a 02:10 alarm call and typing in the back of a taxi is my excuse.
Would be interesting seeing a Class 397 get to Codsall:lol:.
Have edited it to say CAR(Carlisle),

Rubbish. Utter rubbish. At least Edinburgh remains nearly normal.

Why do we have the obsession with picking out 3 letter codes that arent correct? Lets face it, people know what they are on about.

I think one thing we have learned about TPE, especially the Anglo-Scottish service, is that what the timetable states and what actually runs are usually two very different things. I would trust this reduced timetable as much as I trust the current one, i.e. wouldn't go near a TPE service if it was free and they laid on a limo to pick me up from home.

Oh, I don’t know. At first look I thought this thread was about flights to Taipei.

Forum rule since 2009 isn't it? Extract as follows...

Please remember many members do not understand rail “jargon” (including acronyms, station codes and specialist terms). Such terms should be correctly defined the first time they are used; codes and abbreviations must not be made up.

To clarify where the OP was referring to. I wasn't sure where- otherwise I wouldn't have questioned them for the sake of doing so. Also other members may not have been sure either.

They’re an absolute disgrace of a TOC this is about the 3rd time they’ve reduced the Glasgow services
