Despite strikes, partial timetables and massive overall disruption, rail ridership continues to climb, with the rolling average now at 90% and peak overall system ridership reaching a peak of 99%... #GBRailTrends #COVID19

After last night's map-laden #RailNatter, the question on everyone's* lips today is obviously: What should my proposed north-south main line for Wales be called? Reply with your answer and I'll put the best to the vote! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

IMPORTANT @TFL POLL: 🚇🚍🚆 How many of you check what zones you'll be travelling through when planning or making a journey across London?

A quick one here instead of on the @PermanentRail account... Today's latest transport ridership stats. Rail sat firmly at 80% plus now - each week the previous couple of weeks is getting revised upwards towards 80%. Question remains: what will the new reduced timetable change?

This is the bit of the job I love the most! Spending the day on the network speaking with colleagues, customers, friends and stakeholders. Today takes me to Glasgow, Clydebank, Kilmarnock and Pitlochry! Queen Street looking stunning. @ScotRail @NetworkRailSCOT 👍🏻

If we zoom in on this year's #GBRailTrends #COVID19 traces, it is clear that there remain significant latent demand for rail travel. Ridership continues to climb, despite reduced timetables still being in operation, and in some cases with cuts to services having taken place.

It's been a while, but here's the latest #GBRailTrends #COVID19 data... Overall rail usage is now up to 85%. There has been a significant increase in some markets compared to pre-COVID levels to make up for the drop in short-distance commuting.

@PermanentRail Your explainers are great but the animated content updates too quickly! A person can’t read that last sentence they have been waiting for before it’s whisked away as the loop restarts.

Lots of people ask us about how high speed rail increases capacity on the existing railway network... 👥📈 We've an explainer video coming up, but here are some simple graphs showing how capacity can be increased by splitting out different traffic types... 🚄🚈

We will keep issuing this data as it is uploaded by @transportgovuk... For more information on these trends and the data contained within the graphs, see a previous #GBRailTrends thread: twitter.com/PermanentRail/…

We've made two slight alterations to the #GBRailTrends COVID graph: 1. We've used a dotted line for the DfT's "provisional" rail passenger data, which accounts for the dip at the end of the trend line that disappears with the newly released data.

Our latest #GBRailTrends #COVID19 post shows that rail ridership growth has slowed, with passenger numbers sat around 70% of pre-COVID levels. It is looking likely that this is as a result of the reduced level of service provision on the rail network - investigation is ongoing.

@PermanentRail That flickering map is profoundly unhelpful. Lines appear and disappear too quickly for any meaningful absorption of information. A static map would be a lot more useful.

The second of today’s #whyHS2 threads looks at the Great Central Main Line (often referred to as the GCR), and suggestions that reopening this railway would be a better alternative to HS2. This simply isn’t correct. By comparing the two alignments, you can see why…

Capacity is the main challenge preventing Hyperloop from working as a competitive means of mass transit. A line built using Hyperloop technology could require as many as 23 tubes to match the capacity of a high speed railway like @HS2ltd. In one direction only.

The weather is getting hotter again, so yesterday I popped up on @BBCMorningLive having a chat with @RiyadhK about how hot weather impacts on railways... You can still see it on catch-up!

Rail usage is now at 68% and still climbing, and recent reports suggest that ridership reached 100% of pre-COVID levels over the bank holiday... We won't get those results for another couple of weeks, but for now, here's our latest #GBRailTrends #COVID19 graph:

@Penmcgregor One of the most annoying errors we've made as that tweet has gone round the world and back... But it doesn't actually make any meaningful difference to the actual figures.

So confusing! Looks like u want to scrap it but u say you'd support it if it's done better or something? We all want better from @HS2ltd but I don't get how u expect them to avoid nature along the route! Seriously how? How do u build a track then? What do u want MPs to say?🦉🌳
The Wildlife Trusts@WildlifeTrusts

The Government has a target to see 30% of land and sea recovered by 2030. BUT that can’t happen as long as @HS2Ltd continues to destroy precious woodlands, wetlands and meadows. Ask your MP to support the HS2 parliamentary debate and speak up for nature. wtru.st/MPs-HS2-debate
