    Steeple Claydon SB

    I think Freightliner do the bin train from Ruislip to Calvert, see it everyday at Risborough. IIRC, its usually a 66 that hauls it

    Temporary stations

    Princes Risborough northbound platform looks pretty temporary! Its a metal extension onto what was one of the through lines, hopefully it'll be knocked down and the original formation re adopted

    If i wanted to build a 70mph railway on a disused line, where would i build it

    but imagine I wanted a line just for my own trains rather than sharing with a heritage organisation, say for running today's dmu's in the future when they get withdrawn

    If i wanted to build a 70mph railway on a disused line, where would i build it

    Are there any un-built on, at least 10 mile stretches of track, which have not been used as a heritage railway or a test track that would be capable of building a 70mph railway as something like a rich mans train set, and if so, where is it so I can start saving up and getting planning...

    Chiltern services after 1900

    Cheers for confirming that eagle, however, I'm still reluctant to believe it was an eight car train, I must check the set diagrams for this service

    Chiltern services after 1900

    I've only ever seen Chiltern do a 7, although some platforms can take 8 cars I've never seen it done, are you sure it was 8 cars?

    Trivia: Trains with unusual stopping patterns

    I think some mainline services have first stop at Warrick pway, not 100% on that though

    Trivia: Trains with unusual stopping patterns

    Its what is says on the tin really, are there any trains in your area that you think have odd calling patterns, perhaps passing larger 'more main' stations and stopping at smaller stations and shaks? Just interested to know of examples on other lines that i might not venture onto so frequently...
