One for @MillsyModels Class 70 with snowplough

@AndyRoden1 @ScotRail The fuel consumption on HST's is much more than was quoted.

The Class 222s are good trains with plenty of life left in them. They're having a major refurb for use with @ScotRail. No, they're not new - but the HSTs are excruciatingly expensive to run, and with major electrification planned, why order new multi-mode trains...

@WiggumCharm They will never know the joy of having a few beers with your mates and winning the jackpot £30 on the who wants to be a millionaire puggy using knowledge of non League football!

NOT ONE of these #Manosphere saddos has ever gone down the pub and had a pint. None of them have ever successfully flipped a beer mat and caught it. None of them have ever got the fruity to pay-out This alone disqualifies them from talking about masculinity. Fucking soft lads…

@S26PHY Well done and good luck!

@railwayjunctio @TrainLifeGB They will probably order something similar to Azuma or a second generation of them!

@railwayjunctio @TrainLifeGB ScotRail are biding time until electrification or partial electrification is complete form Dunblane to Perth and Edinburgh via Fife to Dundee.

Lumo has a handful of meridians The rest going to ScotRail to replace the HSTs They are not going to XC

He already knows. You'll be in a depression and your economy collapses globally due to dependence on the dollar to trade. The effects of the sale of treasuries before maturation is a net loss that your banking system can't handle. As for the retake Greenland, the US has a base inside almost every European country. You're already invaded. Now what?

@nickbro76777852 @JGourd7 Royal Train or railtours related maybe!

@JGourd7 I dont remember how it acquired the silver roof, but it was a Haymarket loco when it operated the Edinburgh- Glasgow push-pulls.

From an era when getting hold of an ScR depot permit couldn't have been easier - 47710 'Sir Walter Scott' (as it was then) at Haymarket, 16th August 1980. Would anyone like to ID the van? #FortySevensOnFriday

@miles_chains @DJViles Great picture! Glad both locos are still with us!

Morning all, I hope the week has been a good one. Seen awaiting their next workings, large logo 37421 and 37401 ‘Mary Queen of Scots’ stand outside the shed at Inverness. Have a great Sunday, the weather looks a bit better at least! #Class37 #Tractor #Inverness #HighlandRail

@ScotRail You need one of these

🏃 When I'm running, I usually pace around 4:50 per KM. When running across wet leaves, it's closer to 5:30 per KM. Guess what happens if I go my usual pace across wet leaves and don't slow down. 🚆 Get it now? ^Ste ℹ️ scotrail.co.uk/plan-your-jour… 🍂

Steeling the show @svrofficialsite @S26PHY @DownOnTheStour @HunsletTheBear

@mitchell_hurd @O_TTravels @Guard_Amos I'll take the things that didn't happen for £50 please Jim!

@O_TTravels @Guard_Amos Apparently one on the Cumbrian Coast had to replace a Class 37+4 Mark 2's!

Shortest passenger train on the WCML? First time I've seen a 3 carriage train on the WCML since the 313s were on the London Overground!

@S26PHY Some belters there Steph 🤩🚜! Mary will always be one of my favourites 😎

Of course I had to go back to Derby for another helping of trains! It was nice to mill about at a slower pace, and of course I just had to revisit a few things... Any guesses what my favourite loco is??

@S26PHY Congratulations 🎉

I've been MIA for a while... But I do have some exciting news... 👰🏻‍♀️💕 Yes. Yes, that music is what you think it is.

@miles_chains Brilliant I remember seeing her paired with 37262 on the logs at Perth!

One of my favourite 37s…Prior to this repaint! 37111 ‘Glengarnock’ (formerly ‘Loch Eil Outward Bound’) stands against the wall at Perth. At least it retained its miniature snow ploughs. #Class37 #Tractor #RailfreightMetals #Perth

@miles_chains And still possible today 37403 worked the Aberdeen sleeper last night 😁

The InterCity ‘West Highlander’ Land-cruise heads south along the West Highland Line with the mighty Beinn Dorain towering above. Quite a heavy load for a single 37, but that always ensured that EE music through the Glen! #Class37 #Tractor #BeinnDorain #WHL #InterCity

@RAIL Will they use the 68s as well

Chiltern Railways on verge of agreeing deal to take ex-TransPennine Express Mk 5s railmagazine.com/news/fleet/202…

Lawn mower kaput Hairdryer kaput Hoover having an emotional breakdown I’m taking that as a sign So it’s Rings of Power afternoon and maybe* a cold lager *most definitely

@JohnSwinney Reopen the railway station the line is there the train goes down the line to reverse would be a really easy one.

The end of refining at Grangemouth is a very sad day for Scotland. This news is very damaging for workers and everyone in the area. The Scottish Government will work to secure a future for the Grangemouth community and agreement to the Acorn Carbon Capture project is essential.

@bessbbe Just a warning that there’s 48hrs left until #BessiesBallast 465908 in Network Southeast livery closes on eBay - every penny going to @DementiaUK Get those bids in and have a dabble at trying to own this masterpiece ☺️🤟🏻 #85ForPat
