Roundel Round We Go podcast

Just under the wire but we got #TottenhamCourtRoad out! Rebuilds, platform gates, trains longer then platforms, Centrepoint, Paolozzi, Crossrail, and an awful lot of overcrowding! Listen now: #TCR #ElizabethLine #LondonUnderground podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/rou…

@Mikeashworth12 @NUL_Transport Can see why my grandparents emigrated by boat in 48! 😂

@Mikeashworth12 @NUL_Transport I also think, flying home to Edmonton is still a painful journey with a stop in either Calgary or Toronto. Can't imagine having to do Prestwick, Gander, Montreal, and then presumably somewhere like Winnipeg and Calgary to get there... if it even was an option!

Vandalised heritage tube train returning to the tracks ➡️ ianvisits.co.uk/articles/vanda… The 1938-era art-deco tube train, covered by graffiti by vandals on the eve of a special tour, will return to the tracks next month.

I know people are curious what is happening with the podcast – we've just released a short update to your podcast feed. Thanks for sticking with us – we know it's been a while! podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/round…

@RTWBarefoot I know someone who works in making the bus stop display things work! Maybe he can hook me up!

@RoundelRoundPod [now, if there was a bus station equivalent .... :p]

Oh my. Oh. My. What a thing to exist! Desktop/wall-mounted Home Live Railway Departure Boards! [as advised by @hiurbanwanderer] ukdepartureboards.co.uk

@RTWBarefoot We already have WAY too many train-related art that we can’t fit on our walls – there’s just not enough space!

@RoundelRoundPod (and in both directions too, I guess!) haha, I mean the clear answer is 'get three of them' but that's ... a little expensive! :D

@RTWBarefoot We actually don’t but know many who do. The problem is we live near 3 different overground/underground lines, and we’d want one that shows all three. 😂

I assume @RoundelRoundPod have one already!

@Superfast72 It’s standard tube lines moquette that predates barman (northern, jubilee, and Picc). How they managed to choose that over barman which presumably they have a lot of around it beyond me…

@Pecnut That's intersting. I assumed it was some sort of ASCII related problem but I couldn't figure out why it would have been doing that.

Question TfL people in the know: The displays in this Pic train have many !?’%$s interspersed between the letters of things they’re displaying. How does that happen? If they were replacing letters I could see it being a code translation problem but they’re just randomly inserted.

@AaronLancs No. Not replacing punctuation which I understand how happens, but randomly inserting. So like “Baker!!loo”.

I do enjoy reading “Baker!!loo line” or “The next station is !!” but it’s not great for accessibility…

The artist who designed the piano key floor tiles at Waterloo Underground station got in touch!

@Kevin_D_Tennent It would be series 4 if we were counting by series – we are working on it but life has somewhat got in the way!

I have managed to finish all 24 existing episodes of @RoundelRoundPod - a podcast I initially thought would have too specific a subject matter but its really compelling. Hope for series 3 soon!
