@SteveSayersOne 25/1/21 could be a good day for them all to resign en-masse. Perhaps the FM will echo some of the words of the Ploughman Poet?

@ScotRail back to skipping stops. Ah well, delay repay it is.

@Iainmackay8 @RussellFindlay1 Mr Swinney is correct re the importance of separation of powers. But Mr Findlay is correct on everything he said. Early release is entirely down to the executive and nothing to do with the judiciary, it’s a political choice. If they make it, they need to own it.

@rainbowlollies I didn’t even know it did that… and this is my third Garmin. Looks like you enter running, then hit the menu (my middle-left button), then select navigate, then courses! If you edit the course on connect, there’s a pace calculator at the bottom and you can enter the goal time.

@GJJahn Two things. I’ve set up a couple of custom runs but there’s no option to put the pace in km/m. I’ve sent these runs to my watch, but I can’t find them on the watch

Anyone with a Garmin running watch got a couple of minutes to answer some questions for me, please?

@AD3Trains @GreggsOfficial @NetworkRailGLC Seems to be coming to @NetworkRailGQS too!

Yaaaassss @GreggsOfficial is coming to @NetworkRailGLC

@BrianSpanner1 Is that account official though? Doesn’t look it - partly because it says it is, partly because it’s the “POOP” network…

@richardavsmith The screen though… it *must* be possible to route the departures through to it?? And it’s much bigger than the old boards, going much higher… it could be used for Good, not Evil!?!

It's easy to forget just how undignified this makes Euston look. A place for serving ads, not serving customers.

@ThunderWolf08 How very Alstom! amp.theguardian.com/business/2011/…

Alstom is Suing the DOT and Siemens for being awarded the contract to build BLWs high speed trainsets. bnnbloomberg.ca/business/compa…

I'm not sure the best way to keep costs under control is to: review everything constantly, continually change scope, employ lots of consultants to study cost saving, and create constant uncertainty. 🤪 ft.com/content/be9cf2…

@NathanTBatWaver I think maybe they want me too?? If anyone else fancies it, it looks like you can just WhatsApp them!

Ah yes, my CV which isn’t publicly available, and only includes railway jobs and a part time job in Dunelm 🤣 Suuuuure This is definitely real 😂😂😂

Just get on and build HS2 in full as intended. #highspeedrail

The quickest way to deliver HS2 to Manchester and beyond is to... build HS2 as designed and consulted on. Nothing else will be built more quickly. Not even a single track line with a hand cart.

NOT A JOKE: Holyrood sits 3 days a week, but it turns out that for the purposes of measuring MSP suspensions, parliament claims it sits 5 days a week. Michael Matheson is back today after 27 'sitting days' suspension over his expenses scandal. In reality, he's missed 16 days.

@ScotRail Yeah - staff on train made us aware - have abandoned the journey and am in the car!

👋 Evening! ^Ste in the hot seat until 00:00.

This has to go to Manchester and Leeds in the end surely

@nb_Snowgoose I’m so glad we did the Llangollen (from Whitchurch!) in April - sure, the weather was awful for a first time boater and the boat was it like a kite in wind, but it went fairly well without the, er, issues you’ve pointed out. Wander down and grab a pint at the Horse and Jockey!

First stop, there's a queue (including a CRT boat moored) for the locks so I've stopped for water. Right behind this Anglo Welsh boat all locked up and moored on the tap behind. #FullAndComprehensiveHandover Can't use tap behind as the bollards next to it are fenced off !

Good morning! Later departure again today how lovely. Reversed off the arm and helped through the lift bridge by @Moor2Explore Alli, thanks ! And hi to Pete again 👋 Onwards towards Grindley Brook

@NathanTBatWaver In Glasgow terms, the HWFG moment. When a Eurostar from Paris enters LGV Nord, when a semi-fast commuter train starts going through stations it normally stops at, when tilt starts on your Pendolino… And the sun is shining and the tunes in your ears just fit. 👌

Good morning! It’s a cold windy day today (I guess summer is over 🥲) and I have my standard large hot chocolate for my pass train this morning! I hope you all have a wonderful day, whatever it is you’re doing! Question - what is your favourite part of a train journey?

Glastonbury has proven it is possible to all but eliminate touting for high demand gigs. It's not that they can't -- it's that they don't want to.

Please help get the message out! Get retweeting! Over 50 prizes in the draw. £10 to enter. 40 prizes still to be announced. But only 2000 tickets available. Go to railwayfamily.co.uk
