Going to the SVR on my birthday, riding behind Bittern in a Gresley teak coach in the Spring sunshine. Visiting the NRM for the first time in 10+ years, at the Railfest 2012 event. Was obsessed with Mallard as a little boy and this was the first time coming back as a so-called adult, was a bit...

Wasn't unit drags one of ROG's intentions for their 93s?

Good luck to GBRf, beats having yet more 66s (even if they're doing that anyway)

Got a pic of 168322 at Moor Street about to do the run down to Marylebone, 14/7/16. Both coaches already full. Not sure whether it was calling at the usual stops or running non-stop or whatever though.

Euston to Blackpool North ECS up on RTT for tomorrow: https://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/W45805/2020-02-29/detailed

Got excited at this one for Tuesday 9th, but down as a 350 - have they sent 350s on this route for any reason, or is it just timed as a 350 or something? Sorry for any daft questions, have been out of the loop with this. http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/P85033/2019/04/09/advanced

I know the SVR has been mentioned already, but it was amusing going there for the first time solo a few years ago, getting home and my dad asking "What did you see there?" with me replying "An elephant"

I know it's a while away and not terribly important, but would this mean there's a decent chance of an 88 being on display at next April's Multimodal event in Birmingham?

Absolutely, but which locos? 67s?

Sadly unless sleep-inducing gases can be tactically leaked out of the headrest of the inevitable loudmouth moron/pack of morons/mewling child's seat, all the changes to UK rail travel will never be able to stop people from being people.

As a lifelong Blackadder fan, I would sit on the roof if Miriam Margolyes told me to. As long as she could slap me and shout 'wicked child!' first.

The new Urbos 3 trams are well into their deployment, but what will become of the old T69s? Apparently 01, 03, 04, and 07 have gone to the 'tram test centre' at Long Marston, according to Wiki. I know it's a bit late to ask.

Probably wrong thread so apologies, but I don't suppose there's a chance of an 88 being ready in time for the Multimodal exhibition in Birmingham in April/May next year is there? Seeing 68005 was a blast

Wot, no LoadHaul? Aw.

Yeah I did mean platform 5, thanks for the replies all.

Hello all, Apologies if this has been done to death or discussed elsewhere. My question is: Is it monumentally shortsighted of Chiltern or whomever to essentially sever Platform 4 from the main line, and is it inevitable that growing amounts of traffic will require it to be re-opened in...

Two ideas: A replica of the Fell Locomotive. And it's not technically a new-build, but sacrificing two 08s to make a replica Class 13.

So we won't finally be seeing any Virgin Challengers then? Shame :wink:

Hello all, What is/are, in your opinions, the rolling stock with the least amount of time left? I'm weighing up the next day out and am wondering what's the best thing to focus on in terms of having less time to photograph it, e.g. 142s or EC HSTs. Hope everyone had a great Christmas...
