Trains you're currently travelling on

[ValleyLines142]

Here's another idea I was thinking about this morning on board XC's 220027 (see my sig below) for a further way to increase unit spotting.

How many people are currently travelling on a train as we speak?

Although potentially rather stalker-ish, by doing this, we can see where all our forum members are travelling too and also those who would like certain gen can work out the diagrams for the rest of the day!

Could this take off?

Techniquest, AndrewR232, Strathclyder and PHILIPE, I have a feeling (or at least I hope!) that this thread may interest you!

 

[AndrewR232]

Interesting idea, and I like the sound of this. I will certainly contribute later when I start travelling.

 

[Techniquest]

Very much of interest to me, just happened to see this before shutting the app down for a bit!

Currently in 153371, it working with 170514, on the 0849 Hereford to Birmingham New Street. Going the full way, and in a red shirt so if you're on this working come and say hello!

FWIW, this pair should be off to Tyseley after arrival at New Street.

EDIT: My next move is expected to be the 1055 Birmingham Moor Street to London Marylebone, only as far as Solihull mind. I'll post again later when I have more to report

Busy service?

 

[Bob Ames]

Love this idea! For my last journey, I'm just going to list the inbound working because a) I know people are interested in the new 350 workings, and b) I had a serious problem on the return journey which required TM intervention - I was so distracted that I didn't get the unit number!

I wish! I know I posted on this thread a lot yesterday, was on a full day out after all! Unless I'm missing something?

Now on 350118 working the 1133 New Street to Euston. If anyone's on it, feel free to find me in the front coach. Blue shirt on today and I'm on this for the entire journey

Not expecting to be posting too many times later as A) I'll be too busy to do so and B) We'll be on page 7 by the end of the day otherwise! If you see me about though (I star in my avatar so no excuses for not recognising me ) say hi!
