Trains, buses, and chaos.
An excellent map 😍 as someone who lived in Hatfield, when first reading about Ringways I was convinced the second unbuilt carriageway on Southway was for the North Orbital, I wonder if it was a possibility at one point...

Keighley to Milton Keynes via the Settle and Carlisle line...

A morning on the KWVR for 8 West Yorkshire winners. Some of them below :)

Voyager from Wakefield to Bradford still seems weird! Thankfully the air con was freezing. And the hotel room is nice and cool too!

Transdev's group day ticket is really good value for money. Especially as this one was given out by them free last summer! From Manchester I've been to Rochdale, Halifax, Huddersfield and now approaching Wakefield.

If it helps, technically that's from tomorrow. Yesterday and today were the exact same length but last night was the shortest night 😁

One easy stay in a decidedly orange branded hotel later, and now the empty streets seem eerie.

Yesterday after work I decided to explore Birmingham which was not at all a stupid decision in 29° heat and very comfortable (actually, the Metro has good aircon!)

When you look at what they replaced, you can understand the difference!

Of course returning to the big railway (via two buses) and it's just like always... Trains on two separate lines cancelled. Vending machines broken so can't even have a drink while I wait 🤣

The trains mainly behaved, which was good as I didn't fancy messing around too much in the heat!

Headed off to deepest darkest Norfolk today to play trains.

Praise be to the lord of iSmash! Absolutely painless. She looks just like new!

Not had much luck with my phone in the past 48 hours. Yesterday morning I left it in the back of an Uber (quickly recovered thanks to Google's tracking!) and now there's a pink line down the screen...

Today's commute starting slightly later than usual.

I'll let you know when I find the news story on the page you linked to :(

Never mind that, Treinposities shows the live speed, direction and unit number of many trains in NL. We can only dream!

PS: I think the BlackBox displays are almost as clear as this except
1. The data behind them is just not accurate and useful enough
2. GA murdered the layout (see photo)

I didn't think it was you but I reserve my judgment!
