Meanwhile, and sort of, back on topic: The caption for that particular news article image is 'Track'. Which it is - you can't argue with that!   |

William Huskisson MP▸ was the first person to be killed by a train while crossing the tracks, in 1830. Many more have died in the same way since then. Don't take a chance: stop, look, listen.
"Level crossings are safe, unless they are used in an unsafe manner." Discuss.

When did an HST▸ last run to Southend?
I'd say probably never. With the caveat that a HST may well have traversed London, Tilbury and Southend Railway metals, but 99% certain that an EMT» liveried one has never done so. EDIT: A bit of Google-ing throws up a GWT (Merlin livery - one of the best!) HST at Southend Victoria, but that's a totally different line.... http://www.flickr.com/photos/sinkplunger/3958261902/ |

An old one, pre-dating the start of this topic. IEPs▸ for Minehead? From the Somerset County Gazette: A JOINT bid for a multi-million pound grant which could have made a rail service possible between Minehead and Taunton has been unsuccessful. Somerset County Council joined its Devon counterpart and Exmoor and Dartmoor National Parks in requesting ^3.6million from the Government for a sustainable transport project. When do the wires go up through Stogumber?  (Thanks to bobm for the heads up after posting the article in another thread) |

Meanwhile from the "Annoying use of news releases" department... it is rather disappointing the Northern Echo didn't re-write the handout they were given to put the work affecting Manchester Aiport services above those of the Gatwick disruption - which I suspect will affect their readership rather more.
