    Class 319's into storage/withdrawals tracker

    Will anymore 319s be heading to what was/still is Cockshute Sidings Stoke On Trent? I know there used to be a good vantage point for photos from the bridge across mainline, and also the path that runs adjacent to the English China Clay sidings.

    Non-Urgent TOPS Requests

    Request in reverse almost.....Nice to see 37800 middle road at Shrub Hill earlier, but what did it work to get there? Anything to do with earlier freight failure that was causing some disruption on services from Hereford?

    Grubbiest or most dilapidated station on the network in 2023

    Steady on now....;-) It hasn't had much done in the way of a revamp since most of the stations got a good lick of paint & spruce up with regards National Garden Festival many moons ago! They've even closed Etruria (alight for Garden Festival) since then! Grim is (sadly) one station down from...

    Looking at the YouTube footage one of the artists efforts isn't finished by the look of it & another seems to have been cleaned already? Was it cleaned then I presume by staff at Wembley?

    Locomotive Services Fleet (LSL) updates

    So the "artists" (in the loosest terms) gain access to Eastleigh where their is a multitude of units stored, purely to attack a GM liveried 142? Why the 142?

    Trivia: Quietest Signal Box Shift

    I would have suggested the most beautiful Kingswinford for a quiet shift....the container that has bricks rain off it on regular occasions, trespassers with the attitude of its our walk route not the train, and a general ambience of well....solitude!

    Petrol panic buying

    Filled this morning at the local Tesco no issues...which was then closed by 11am. The Media sources have to take a lot of flack with regards the so called "shortage". Mention no need to panic & hey presto! What have you got?
