X1 Bridgend to Swansea to be scrapped being replaced with extending the 87 neath to Margam service to Bridgend at one end and Pontardawe at the other. The afan valley gets a better service. 83 restored to hourly to blaengwynfi and runs through to Swansea replacing the x1. The 59 service...

Could be handy for gwr especially with 3rd rail shoes. North downs line etc

Think its the same as citysightseeing did a few years ago

I suspect then we could see a 350/2 in the future equipped with batteries to show it works. Now if the wires got to Bristol TM perhaps.if there's enough range along with equipped them.with 3rd rail shoes maybe let gwr have some for the Cardiff to Portsmouth Harbour service

Transpora have now arrived in Cardiff on a city sightseeing tour route. Usually an enviro 400 but then tridents been out lately. Timetable wise the route is struggling with congestion at peak.times

They should have built the 4 platforms when they rebuilt the station and remodelled the road outside. As for a Swansea to Maesteg train thats definitely a great idea but they really should upgrade thw Margam to Tondu branch and reinstate the mainline connection to thw branch without having to...

Brackla station gotta be over 20 years now. Car park even been built

Build miskin/Cardiff West parkway plus a eastbound loop at remains again on a new brackla station would be a great help

Swanline was supposed to be half hourly when.originally proposed. Problem is capacity between Bridgend and Cardiff Central

There was talk of a new link a few years ago of a new allingement from Swansea burrows. Can't remember the link but I do remember the storm it caused from people in neath. Think tfw had their own on street allingement to take tram trains over from Swansea burrows to high street station

I think they'd rather install a loop first

I've see some media outlets saying the captain said no thrust when he made the mayday call. I think something went wrong electrically with this aircraft and left the crew no time although one pilot only has said he thinks the crew tried to keep the aircraft in the air as long as they could

Let's hope then we could see a follow up order placed for the 2024 stock for the bakerloo line

I suspect they'll probably split/attached units at newport to the lumo service travelling to/from Carmarthen

Looks like stadler could end up getting a follow on order for class 398s.

I think london will see an order placed to replace the 1972 stock but I could see a bare minimum order and wouldn't be surprised to seenthe bakerloo cut back to stonebridge park. I can't see the Lewisham extension get the greenlight right now personally I'd put money on the tramlink extension to...

Yes but a few improvements in wales cant be done by welsh government as the infrastructure is under control of of the UK government eg Cardiff ti Swansea electrification

Nothing for Wales yet again!

I think tfw do need more 197s back up north Wales for the future service improvements mentioned recently so could be for these reasons that new units are being ordered. Personally I hope it's not going to be a follow up order of 197s. Did I read right a year or so ago that CAF were looking...

Hopefully tfw will plug the 2 hour gaps on the swanline services to give a full hourly service between Cardiff and. Swansea maybe even a Sunday service
