    Derailment near Grange Over Sands

    I've just found the video, I was very surprised. It was not as if they didnt know where they are. If it was me, considering the nature of the derailment, never mind the re-railing, I would have watched this from for a considerable distance.

    AP 37 is it a standalone or enhancement pack? Might have a play with it. Actually I think I may have it, will need to check later.

    LNER Apple Wallet issue

    TBH, I've had problems with it in the past, not just with train tickets. Try going into the Wallet app itself, click the ticket, then the circle with the 3 dots on the top right and see what pass (ticket) details are. This is what the phone picks up, supposedly.

    “Better than average” Wetherspoons

    Bolton to London 4th to 5th May

    Just had a look, the quickest journey time is around 4h30m. If I had to travel by train, I'd bite the bullet and choose the St Pancras/Chesterfield/Piccadilly one, It's the quickest one (I think) and seems to be the one with the less faffing about.

    Train Sim World

    There is some sort of tool released I believe to do this, not looked into it though. True, but the physics are 100% better on TSW. "I say, You buy one, you get one free!" advert springs to mind. He was prosecuted for tax invasion about 10 years back for not declaring earnings, a bit daft when...

    Vintage sign - is it real?

    If you have Facebook, join the group 'Railwayana & Advertising Fakes at Auction and on the Internet' These people are mustard. They will know what it is. Lots of people post on there before buying railwayana, and I think it's backed by an auction house.

    EuroTunnel Announcement Jingle

    Foremost it sounds like my door bell, secondly it sounds like the old ATV jingle! (For people of an age who can remember class 44/52's on the mainline). But in all seriousness, I have heard this before on the rail network, somewhere.
