Veuillez préparer vos passeports pour inspection au poste frontalier de Kings Langley. N'oubliez pas d'enfiler vos combinaisons de protection avant de quitter le train pour vous protéger de ces sales habitants du Nord. Merci d'avoir voyagé avec Eurostar aujourd'hui et bon voyage.
Hi Mate, i believe this was for Plymouth depot only. They said anyone in the mainline can also join depot driver talent pool and will then been in both as tests and dmi already passed no need to take again. They said very little planned for mainline over next 18 months but lots of depot courses planned. that was in April nothing heard since.
I had an aunt who lived in Llwyngwril and although she had access to a car always used the train to travel to Tywyn or Barmouth as it was so much quicker(and cheaper).
New profile banner photo: the Clyde excursion steamer TS King Edward (1901-1951) - the world's first merchant/commercial vessel to be powered by steam turbines.
Another of my hot takes: I'd argue the King Edward is among the most revolutionary vessels to ever set sail in the last 120 years.
