I would expect the Cotswold Venturer next Saturday to be cancelled or re-scheduled. There's an RMT strike that day and Shrub Hill station is...
I have never seen SDO in use on either Saphos or Statesman. Unplatformed doors have always been unlocked when I've looked. The usual process is...
Yes I was on that one as well. If I remember rightly, after that trip 46100 needed a bit of TLC at Crewe, as it had been worked harder than...
As I've been expecting for a few weeks now, I've just had confirmation that the South Devon Express trip to Kingswear has been cancelled. This was...
I thought that. It's only a small amount less than what I earn, and I work full-time in an office. I've just Googled what the minimum wage is...
"Ability to spot ORR inspectors is an essential skill in this role"
Yesterday I travelled on LSL's "Cornish Riviera Statesman" which went from Derby to Penzance. The train was double-headed throughout by 47712...
You seemed like a pleasant, friendly chap when I saw you on episode 4 of "Britain's Most Luxurious Train Journeys", so I'm sure you're not...
Here is the Six Bells Junction link to the tour I was on: https://www.sixbellsjunction.co.uk/20s/220525sr.htm Definitely 11 coaches and 2 Class...
LSL run their Statesman train there several times a year. I did it last year and it was 2 Class 47s with 11 coaches. It stayed at the platform...
Depends on who is operating the trip. LSL don't sell every seat, not even close. A "fully booked" LSL train is one that's at around 70% occupancy.
I was on a Royal Duchy with Bahamas a few years ago and we got signal checked at Totnes, necessitating an ascent of Rattery from a standing start....
Nice to see my home city of Worcester being the Day 1 destination. Talk about starting the tour off in style! I won't be on it unfortunately, as...
That sounds horrendous. I feel sorry for the ScotRail staff working at Fort William. On the plus side, at least the Jacobite passengers still got...
You're getting confused. The photo shows the Saphos set that I mentioned in my post, where you see the CDL fitment and the door bar. It's not a...
I was just looking at the BBC's coverage of this - https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-highlands-islands-66271357 Rather fittingly, their...
The simple, and inexpensive, solution for the window hanging is to do what Saphos have done on their Mk 1s. A vertical bar positioned diagonally...
The ORR have published a statement: “A safety inspector from the Office of Rail and Road (ORR) visited the Jacobite service run by West Coast...
Nor me. It's like saying a strike by bus drivers and bus station staff means that coach companies can't run day trips on those days.
It shows the advantages of having passenger pickup/set downs at un-manned stations. As there's never any staff member working at them anyway, the...
