you'd need an underground station in central London, Gareth Dennis talked about putting it at Farringdon on the other site a couple years ago.

See what happens when you provide a more frequent service? Now if only we had more rail lines! @jonworth.eu

Hungary has closed a passenger railway to build a battery factory

The Debrecen – Nagykereki line used to continue as #CrossBorderRail to Oradea, although the border section is long gone

Here's a pic at Nagykereki I took this summer!

Also this is not a good outcome for the Kent stations (Ebbsfleet, Ashford) as Virgin is not keen on those

It's not good for prospects to run London to Germany and Switzerland (as Virgin's trains will not have 15kV)

the finest dining I've indulged in outside of a heratige train was having multiple meal deals.

and that train started in Aberdeen and ended in penzance.

you can almost see trains through the grine on the staircase windows, almost.

brboymoder.bsky.social @brboymoder.bsky.social · 22d

I usually only have time for a meal deal (& maybe rail magazine) here

North Devon's urbanised coast has a population of over 125000 people. Bideford-Barnstaple-Braunton has a population of 90000 plus. And that's before factoring in the huge tourist surges through summer.

Its road network cannot and will never cope.
