A final departure to Pacer Unit 142 005, age 32.5 years and 3 million miles. 👋🚞👋 Passengers on @northernassist will welcome the retirement of these uncomfortable trains. The railway must now ensure new trains provide more reliable and punctual services. #PassengerVoice

It turns out that being attached to the outside of a train at 125mph isn't a comfortable experience... An interesting angle of Colton Junction, though! (a reminder: 10cm is considered a Good And Proper passing clearance between trains so keep your heads inside the damn window) – at Yorkshire and The Humber, England

You know that feeling when your train shows as ‘Delayed’ with no extra information? From today, our platform screens will tell you exactly where the train is and, where we can, the reason for the delay. Improving #SEInformation for you

A few people have asked why we cannot just run trains through flood water. So here is a THREAD. Moving water above track level means there is already several feet of it below the track, in the ballast stones that support the railway. That movement can dislodge the stones... /1
