@raildavidturner Unfortunately, we don't have control over the weather, and when it's like it is, we have to amend our timetable accordingly. Sorry for the disruption today. - Pete

@AvantiWestCoast why no services to Tamworth since before 1800? No plans given, no update from staff, only that Tamworth isn't a regular stop for Avanti? Yet, you pass it on multiple other routes destined further north? I get the disruption, but having no options is poor.

@raildavidturner Due to the disruption, we have cancelled our services to Tamworth tonight, but there is ticket acceptance in place with West Midlands Trains. - Pete

Too many people to mention. But if you've had any part in my journey over the last 7 years, thank you! New chapter starts next week. @RailFreight @RailFreightUK

@GarethDennis (Operator here) - there will of course be a Public Inquiry for this operator. Issues are not simplistic. Psychology. Need proper support from NR and the various Highways bodies. Please look at this bridge from both sides and tell me it's height maps.app.goo.gl/eCFAtXJA8Yd969…

Measures against haulage companies aren't hard enough... Put this on HGV drivers and we'll never see bridge strikes reduce. Put a few haulage companies out of business and there might be some change.

⚠️ Cross City line services between Birmingham New Street and Lichfield are currently suspended as a lorry has hit a bridge in Erdington 🚓We’re on site with emergency services and examining the bridge to check it’s safe before it reopens ℹ️ Check @nationalrailenq for updates

Yorkshire - London, London - Ipswich, Ipswich to Birmingham, by train over the last three days. All journeys on time, and well utilised. No parking charges, time to work and this evening relax. Just need a taxi home now to be fully intermodal.

@CrossCountryUK⁩ I’ve been looking at the below graphic for a while now, stood on a packed service. The right hand side is surely wrong. Escape route A is listed as ‘doors to next carriage’ when ‘A’ is actually shown in ‘exterior door’ positions on layout?

On this sombre weekend of remembrance, hosting an iconic loco and recognising the city status of Doncaster with @RailFreight loco naming 'City of Doncaster' further brings home the importance of history. Lest we forget. doncaster.gov.uk/News/doncaster…

@faisalislam Looks like a discrete vertical line highlighting Manchester dot. So many areas being included, I wonder how many are politically tactical albeit that would mean doing some work before 2024 election - unlikely

Liberal interpretation of “North” spreads the money saved from the smaller Euston needed post HS2 northern cancellation around the country from Suffolk ports to Somerset… Manchester appears to have been moved northwards too.

… Government is arguing that with the rise in costs, the cost benefit ratio for HS2 may have fallen below 1… some bus projects have a ratio above 4 (ie £4 for every £1 invested)… But this would be for the whole project… now half built.
