    What about 80001?

    EMR Class 360's

    Finally! I know EMR wants them to a similar standard as the Auroras.

    How could Lumo expand/develop/improve?

    Not unless a ScotRail service could be replaced if necessary.

    How could Lumo expand/develop/improve?

    Weekdays the 12:27 from Plymouth arriving at Glasgow Central at 22:13 and 07:48 from Glasgow Central to Plymouth arriving at around 17:45-17:50. That would be an increase in capacity definitely!

    Stagecoach Group (Group-wide matters)

    How were the Plaxton Profiles a disaster? With them being Volvos, I thought they would have been reliable.

    Stagecoach Group (Group-wide matters)

    I don't know if this is ok to ask in this thread rather than the Stagecoach West one but does anyone know what the 55 new E400 EV's for Oxford are displacing? From what i counted on the Stagecoach West fleet list for Oxford, the oldest vehicles in passenger service remaining would be E400 MMC's...

    Stagecoach Group (Group-wide matters)

    Ah right :) . I'm guessing the reason for the variety of new Stagecoach vehicle types including the Yutongs and 9700's on order is to see how each ones perform then fewer types ordered the following year.

    Stagecoach Group (Group-wide matters)

    Impressive I'd say! Does anyone know if Megabus benefits from the new orders? That seems to have gone quiet apart from the Panaromas.

    Oxford Bus Company/Thames Travel

    What vehicles are expected to remain at Oxford Bus Company and Thames Travel? I counted the fleet list for these and the 99 new new Electroliners mean the oldest in the Oxford fleet would be most of the Wright StreetDecks. I would have thought the 55-reg Scania OmniDekkas, all B7TL's and...

    Why has GWR removed Slough from Cotswold Line services to PAD?

    I believe this was due to complaints from North Cotswolds line passengers. GWR mentioned that passengers travelling to Windsor & Eton Central basically normally took the fast services which they're not designed for they said hence the Elizabeth Line and 387's.

    All seat reservations activate part-way through GWR journey

    On 9 and 10-car IET's it's always Coach G that's unreserved. The double Voyagers (XC) it's also (when 10-car trains) both Coach H and L too.

    EMR Class 170 updates

    Where can I find news about the 6-car workings?

    2024 Intercity Charters

    I'll be honest, I don't get why the Thirsk - Aviemore Midland Pullman HST one (would join at Newcastle probably) couldn't go to Inverness as that's only about 30 minutes away and could easily return a little later. As it is, some if not all railtours only give you about 2-3 hours break.

    How can i find out how much rail Freight traffic between Eastliegh and Fareham?

    Go onto a website called realtime trains and type in the station, date and time. When you see the list of departures from that station, go to 'DETAILED' and then click 'ZZ Freight services'. Hope this helps :) .
