Some very good shots of the Robertsbridge Junction station area in today's programme - all looking most impressive!
I'm obviously missing something here! The post I was replying to says it leaves Duffield at 07:20, I was wondering why it doesn't leave *later*,...
The RVR is to feature on "Great British Railway Journeys" tomorrow (8th April 2025). There was a brief shot of Michael Portillo operating the...
Just out of curiosity, is there some reason it isn't timed for (say) 0740, to connect with the incoming mainline service from Derby/Nottingham?
I watched it on mute (my Chromebook's sound is always muted by default), and it's fine with no music or commentary, it still gives you a good...
So the "Britannia" weekend is coming up on 15th/16th March and I'm wondering about how crowded it's going to be. Any thoughts on the following:...
I'm planning to attend the Winter Steam Gala, and I was just looking at the ticket booking options (I always buy on the day so this was purely for...
Yes, that's absolutely my understanding too. Although perhaps to be safe we should start referring to the NYMR as "TRTMNBN". :)
Yes. Although I can see why (say) a 50% premium over the SVR, for the Whitby and moors factor, makes sense and brings it to £37.50, £49 does look...
From street view it looks like Railway Terrace will give a good view of some of the work when it starts. Just outside the entrance to the...
A small snippet from the above link: I'd always assumed that something like this must be the case, but it's the first time I've seen it...
I think it's worth pointing out that the Taunton terminating services that are often mentioned for extending to BL *do not actually exist* for...
I wonder if the "Tin Shed" bar will be open? (I'll be visiting regardless but might bring some extra "provisions" if not!) Edit: Got a quick...
Out of interest, does the popularity of East Grinstead as a starting point massively shoot up during the beer festival due to people not wanting...
Your cider and perry selection was truly exceptional and very much appreciated by those of us who are not beer fans! I just wish I'd been able to...
As someone who always accesses the Bluebell via East Grinstead, I'd be quite OK with a shuttle from there to a suitable point if it allowed an...
I enjoyed my visit on Friday, sampled 8 of the ciders and perries (the Monks Delight was particularly delicious and deadly!). I particularly...
I think that "non-essential" argument is dubious anyhow. The "non-essential" parts of the economy - the entire leisure, entertainment and tourism...
Thanks, I've been mostly using debit card rather than cash for this sort of thing, so I'll stick to that from now on.
It's my understanding that if you use a debit card, the railway will only pay a small fixed fee, typically noticeably less than the % fee for a...
