    Should TfL Consider building a 3rd Platform at Highbury and Islington?

    You clearly haven’t used New Cross then. Every time I’ve used it or travelled past it, the ELL platform is always busy

    Confirmed : HS2 West Midlands-Manchester line to be scrapped and replaced with other projects.

    Many of the rail schemes listed as going ahead have been through cost analysis and reports before and they’ve all failed as not having a high enough cost to benefit ratio. What’s changed now?? 80% of these schemes will never happen.

    How could the Southeastern network be improved?

    Why do people think that if TfL take over the metro lines then there’s magically going to be 10tph from every station to every london terminal. It’s not going to happen!

    Italy rail strike 17th February 2023

    Weren’t the Hastings meant to be running fast between tonbridge and London Bridge? Or is that next May?

    Marylebone closed on 9/9 due to tunnel "defect"

    It would probably cost twice as much as hs2 to rebuild the old gc line up to modern standards!
