    🎵🎶In Luton where I was born and raised on the Midland mainline where I spend most of my days spotting some trains to make them cool when a couple guys from Bedford made some trouble in my hoodie my mother got scared and said "your moving with your auntie and uncle in st pancras".🎵🎶 ( that's all I got for now)

    I grew up on the London-Brighton line (Wivesfield Station), and those 319's (even though I didn't appreciate it at the time) were iconic

    Would like to see some Midlands/Birmingham banterage not sure if there’s any scenarios in the game. Maybe the SVR with an excursion on the Snow Hill lines? Just seems that the game is very southern-centric and as a non-southerner it feels alien. Other than that, great you’re back with the train banter.

    The local rag suggests that bi-mode battery trains will be used to replace the 171s. I certainly haven't heard anything from my contacts at Southern about new stock or stock acceptance work on the Uckfield line.

    23:12 "Notch 7 departure, what can possibly go wrong?"
    well don't most passenger trains hammer it out of the stations so as to meet their required timetabled arrival and departure times? especially at busier stations, or routes with more stops...
    also it will only be 6 more months before the intermediate stations no longer get direct intercity trains :(
