    UK General Election 2024

    Come back in 10 years and it'll be the same, just Tories and Labour in the opposite places to now. 'twas ever thus.

    London Northwestern Railway announces "Destination Manchester"

    Could you? So you know the transformer is rated for powering an extra vehicle? And once you've worked that out, you've worked out the cabling to connect to the half-set is viable?

    SWR Class 458 to be retained

    I'm amazed Porterbrook aren't enforcing the lease terms for asset condition with this and making SWR fix them. They certainly know about it!

    Luggage size on European Trains

    Agreed. Far too many people take far too much junk with them when travelling. I blame wheeled cases which have made it easier to take stuff.

    UK General Election 2024

    I don’t want a PM who is working excessive hours. It means they don’t trust their team to run their departments and never switch off which leads to tiredness and bad decision making.

    2024 New Haulages

    A belated report of a set of new scores following an 8-day trip to Denmark and Germany. As usual, only locos and power cars included and shown by country of registration. Denmark registered 3201/05/15/16/20/28/30/36/38/40 Germany resigstered 145039/047/103...

    London Northwestern Railway announces "Destination Manchester"

    And how, exactly, are you going to re-form 350s as 6-car sets?

    Southeast Mexican trains

    It's been running alternate days recently AIUI and it's also possible it may not be an HST as they also have the other set of North American cars.

    SWR Class 458 to be retained

    Fourth, I believe: 415/421/422 have also been used.

    Class 325's working again on third rail?

    As a date reference, Project Rio was May 2003 to September 2004.

    UK General Election 2024

    Finally had some bumph arrive for Labour, the independent candidate and Reform. Reform couldn’t even get the name of their own candidate correct on the leaflet.

    England were dire. Two good minutes out of 120+ is not good enough.

    I take it that post is ironic?

    Football

    I know. :rolleyes: Two bits of classic Clive from the Germany vs Denmark game... On Rasmus Hojlund “Manchester United wanted a hitman last summer; they got a hit and miss man, a hit and miss boy.” On Toni Kroos “When everyone is on fast-forward, Toni Kroos is on play.” Just no comparison -...

    The only thing worse than England's performance tonight was Sam Matterface's commentary. Didn't know his far post from his near post, called Slovakia Slovenia and confused Cole Palmer and Jude Bellingham. Utter clown.

    How ITV think he's better than Clive Tyledesley, I have no idea.

    YOUR OPINION: What's your ranking of continental European train operators and why?

    I'd agree on ÖBB, but completely disagree on NS. The train interiors are appalling - stuck in a timewarp (and not a good one) with the horrible plastic seats. Appalling that they've just carried this on with the new (and utterly garbage) ICNG units. In my experience, DB are not as bad as...

    Midland Railway Centre

    So no different to virtually every other heritage railway!

    UK General Election 2024

    Don’t mention that foreigner Jules Rimet (still gleaming), though.

    It isn't. But it is the best advert for the pharmaceutical industry...
