Hey everyone,
Thanks for the heads up and I appreciate any pointers. I'll maybe see if I can get some work with Scotrail/Network Rail but if anyone who works in the industry happens to hear of anything, last resort cleaners, I'd be interested. I'll need to sit down and write a CV for the first...
Hi Folks,
Due to the pandemic, my photography and video business is essentially getting little to no work and until events come screaming back (which doesn’t look likely till late next year), I’m wondering if there’s anywhere hiring on some shape or form? So not to sound naive, I’m aware that I...
Out of curiosity, what signage is there to tell a driver they’re entering a part of the line that has an overhead supply or would it be more simply that they’d see the overhead supply approaching?
From witnessing some of the chaos at haymarket, it also doesn’t help that drunk people mess about with trains as they are boarding. One guy was messing about going on and off the Birmingham VT service and causing further delays.
As an Edinburger, I’m going to echo what has been said previously...
PURELY speculation but I thought they didn’t change engines at Waverley? Reckon they’re doing a rigorous check? It was coupled when I arrived but they’ve now disconnected.
If anyone has any other questions I’m here till 10.55
Question: So folk have been saying that the TM was the one to activate the emergency brakes in one coach which helped to slow the train down. Was that the one brake for that carriage or would it have activated all braking in the subsequent carriages? Would the isolation been exactly where the...
Bit of an odd one but so far I’ve noticed at Edinburgh Waverley and Glasgow Central, their main tannoy speakers crackle and pop. Is this electrical interference or an anti pigeon measure?
Interesting! You learn something new every day. I guess whoever dictates that has to be bang on with their calculations on speed vs a dead section of OHE
By high speed coast, do you mean that they’ll hit a part of the OLE that isn’t electrified and will coast until they pick up the electrified section? Just curious.
Anyone got any idea as to what they’re implying in this article when they say “Two devices left on railways in 'Brexit-related bid to cause major disruption'”?
It seems intentionally vague but I’m confused what they mean? When they say Brexit-related do you think they mean some sort of...
Question in the thread title essentially. Just curious if anyone has a detailed explanation? Is it just the moisture I’m guessing simply put? Might seem trivial but I’m just curious.
Does it have any effect on the train and the supply?
