Are you certain about this? I just checked NRE journey planner again using Shepreth and I can see buses on the 7th, but not the 6th. It's certainly quite strange!

Does anybody know whether GTR plan to run rail replacement buses between Cambridge and Royston on Saturday 6th April? NRE and the Great Northern websites suggest there will be buses running, but no buses show in journey planners or on realtime trains (albeit I am sure they were there when I...

My wife works at the Biomedical Campus and cannot wait for Cambridge South to open. We live east of Cambridge and currently drive to the Babraham Road Park and Ride, but the traffic is so bad around Addenbrookes in the morning that it will make much more sense to park at Cambridge North and take...

The loss of through services from Hull to Manchester is one of the most eye opening changes I've spotted. I don't remember a time when Hull has ever had no direct service to Manchester and it feels like a very retrograde step. Does also slightly undermine the claims about "improvements" from...

See previous post, this service wasn't cancelled in the end but had a set swap and was diverted via Leeds. It's currently been York and Thirsk.

Many thanks for the update! :)

Does anybody have any intel on the plan for 1N35 beyond Doncaster?

As a result of this my train north to Darlington was cancelled and I'm currently waiting at Peterborough for the next northbound, although the staff here are not filling me with confidence about the chances of getting north of Doncaster...

Does anybody have any intel on what's happening tomorrow (Saturday 9th) with the Cambridge-Kings Cross service? The Great Northern website implies one semi fast into Kings Cross per hour, increasing to two after 19.00. But the timetable tells a totally different story, suggesting that the last...

I see this has now been rectified. Perhaps they saw my message! :D

Incredibly there is nothing on the LNER website about this...

Also looks like some Bristol - Cardiff services are due to run, which is a first for an ASLEF strike day, and slightly exciting for me as it means I might be able to get to work! :D

Couple of tips from a local. Of course, break of journey is perfectly allowed on season tickets but be prepared for occasional raised eyebrows at barriers and ticket offices in the area. My wife used to commute from Penarth to Cathays and regularly bought a monthly season to Radyr, as it was the...

According to TfW and National Rail there are planned alterations to services between Crewe and Shrewsbury between 14th and 18th November, with some services replaced by buses. However, when looking at the timetable for the 17th there don't appear to be any buses scheduled. Instead, almost all...

Experienced a situation this morning that seemed a little unusual. GWR swapped a booked call on 1F07 (Cardiff-Portsmouth Harbour) to 1L08 (Swansea-Paddington). This didn't seem to be advertised aside from an announcement at the station and on the train. Two questions come to mind - firstly...

As COVID-19 continues to reduce in prevalence, and its effects on society reduce, it is inevitable that the amount of discussion in this dedicated section of the forum is starting to fall. While there is a hope that, in the medium term, there will no longer be any purpose for this section, in...

As mentioned above, this is already being discussed elsewhere.

I notice that the expected timetable publication for Tuesday has been postponed from today to tomorrow (Fri 17th).

Seems to have been ongoing for quite a few days, I noticed this on my train home on Wednesday evening.

Can vouch for this too. I've been on the Northern service between Leeds and Hull three times in the past 24 hours for work and they've all been very well used - even on those where the corresponding TPE service hasn't been cancelled (which in all fairness hasn't been all that much - TPE...
