Time flies by when you’re the driver of a train. Indie music loving, third rate football team supporting, arch miserabilist .

Yesterday, whilst sat at Stafford A Trainee driver in the seat, me on the second man’s side. I noticed a lady pacing up and down on the opposite platform. Just something about her seemed off. I watched her for a few seconds, then we got the Right away to leave.

One of the coolest spontaneous performances ever caught on camera: Mick Jones of The Clash steps onstage with Sugarmen in Venice, May 2015, and tears into an unrehearsed “Should I Stay or Should I Go.”

Decided to follow the trend and do a day in the life of a train driver over on instagram, like all the cool kids do! Thing is, I did it on a rest day, so it’s just a montage of me in my dressing gown, laughing at the bargain hunt teams losing money.

The design has changed slightly, but! The proposal for the InterCity West Coast livery will be published in 2 weeks. It will include full 807 and 390 graphics. There will be a bull version for internal, (is Avanti, GBR ect.), and slightly redacted version available publicly.
Lewis Bergen ( == Rail == )@railLKBSep 27
As mentions in a previous thread, the "Moving Britain, by Design" GBR livery designs are being given a refresh, but the basic still stands; improve micro-wayfinding and accessibility designs on main vehicles first, any embellishments can be added to ends of coaches/whitespace.
