As John says, there is a double flanged wheel on one side and a flangeless roller on the other, pictures of the wheelsets are available on the funicular railways wikipedia page. Specifically the section regarding the Abt switch

The 373 sets also worked York terminating services for a while. Pretty much the equivalent of the current all stations stoppers.

That was going to be my second choice...:D

Possibly auto-carrot auto-correct for puppies?

As @YorkRailFan says, they're in plain blue livery. I saw them today on my way to and from work. On the way, around midday, 11101 was parked on the east side of Knavesmire Road, about 3 car lengths north of Knavesmire Crescent; 11103 was parked on the same side of the road, about the same...

The Mont Blanc Tramway from St Gervais les Bains-Le Fayet is also on Street View, as is the Montenvers line from Chamonix, just up the valley.

It is 30 minutes, according to the LNER Delay Repay page on their website.

Looks more like an ICE 4, the cab is a lot squarer on the 4 compared to the many variations of ICE 3. I'm not sure ICE 3s work to Hamburg either, I know the 4s definitely do.

...although Haymarket is within the City of Edinburgh...

Peterborough to Doncaster - either direct via the ECML, or via "the Joint Line" (Spalding, Sleaford and Lincoln.)

...and Enfield.

I hope the OP isn't travelling back from Basingstoke on Sunday, as there are no Cross Country trains from or via Basingstoke on Sunday 12th January. From National Rail Enquiries:

Early 90s, I had a 142 from Huddersfield to Prestatyn (and back a couple of days later) as part of the Wakefield-Llandudno service. That was, erm, interesting! Around the same time, I got a Liverpool-Scarborough service from Lime Street to York that was a single class 142 as far as Manchester...

China has the CRH1E high speed EMU sleeping car trains. Japan has the 3' 6" gauge Sunrise Express, which runs from Tokyo to Izumoshi and Okayama, splitting en-route at Okayama, joining at Takamatsu on the return journey. Norway's state railway has ordered some FLIRT trains for long distance...

I'm not sure if you can see any "alterations" on these photos. Taken this afternoon on a phone camera into the sun (one of them on maximum zoom as well) I did notice on the way down the west side of the bridge that there was a gentleman in full railway HiViz sat on a chair on the landing of the...

My experiences within the last decade (just!) in France: 2015: Used the TER between Calais and Lille, then returned the same way. 3-car double deck EMU, with cycle space in one end vehicle on the lower deck accessed by a ramp from the door furthest from the cab, with (I think) 5 vertical...

I've just tried it on my phone (Samsung Galaxy A52s, Northern app version 6.5.6) and the 05:51 appears on there as the first train of the day.

You are aware that platforms 2&3 are UK height and distance from the rails and platforms 1&4 are continental height and distance**? Also, the main building upstairs would need completely gutting and rebuilding, as platforms 1&4 currently exit into what was intended to be the controlled area for...

I may be totally incorrect, but when the railways were built Slovenia, Croatia, etc. didn't exist as independent countries and were part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. As it happens, Zidani Most is roughly on the border between the Austrian and Hungarian parts of the Empire. It may well be...

In the mid-90s, Birmingham New Street had simultaneous departures at 15:55. Both departures were Cross Country services. Both departures went to Edinburgh. One via York and the ECML, the other via Carlisle and the WCML. There were a number of instances of passengers getting the wrong...
