    Landslip between Edenbridge and Tonbridge

    Transport UK now manage the rail replacement contract. This doesn't mean that you won't be seeing Go-Ahead London buses on rail replacement as they are still subcontracting work to them.

    Does Southern ever use their class 377/6 and 7s on non metro routes?

    On the subject of this thread, there’s two 377/6 diagrams running today on the East Grinstead line. Both diagrams running as 10 cars

    Caterham arrival/departure connection

    I would agree, it’s incredibly tight and most trains generally leave bang on time. You may get lucky if you arrive on P1 and the departing train is on P2 but don’t bank on that. The departing train usually leaves immediately once the arriving train comes in and the departure route is set...

    How common are dividing trains in the UK?

    Should have made it clear they don’t anymore in the standard hour, my bad. There are a few evening services that still do as you’ve correctly highlighted, along with some Sunday morning trains.

    How common are dividing trains in the UK?

    Not anymore no, Southern stopped splitting the Ore and Littlehampton trains since the pandemic and ran them as standalone services. 1706730987 They split at London Bridge after the morning peak. I can’t remember which diagram it is exactly and what time this takes place but one 10 car circuit...

    Non-Urgent TOPS Requests

    Evening, does anyone know if 377610’s been out in service today? Haven’t seen it around for a while so I’m wondering if it’s been out in traffic on Victoria services or it’s been stopped somewhere. TIA

    Class 730 LNR & WMR Delivery/test Updates

    Has anyone got the current 730 diagrams please? Part Time Spotter doesn't seem to have them on their website anymore, either that or the link is broken.
