@superalbs I'll always think it's bordering on incredible that what will be Britain's dominant express trains for at least the next 20 years, were developed from these trains used on two routes on Kyushu island in Japan.
If I ever make a return trip to Japan riding them will be a must do!
Have updated the #london#station info due to changes to central London #bus routes.

The 507 & 521 areโ๏ธ
The 59 no longer serves Euston
The 133 no longer serves L. St
& more.

@waddoboro Yes, have subscribed as this should be v. useful.
What I was alluding to is that YouTube's algorithms didn't place it on my Recommendations feed until this am. Would have been nice to see it 4 weeks ago, but all the content is still relevant.
Better late than never this appeared on my You Tube recommendations https://t.co/Qq64CcR5yt
Highlights include:
New Polish EIC coaches look v. smart
Future new #railway lines in France & Italy
The #trains ordered for the Bergen line
Future enhanced services in Switzerland
Was asked how to book 1st class on Glacier Express 'Classic' Chur to Brig,
Bookings open 93 days ahead so checked early July. Looks like more seats have been released in past hour?Hence a deleted tweet.
But on some July departures 1st class availability is already v. limited.
Reading this was a lovely start to the week, but why include only six on the list?
But if we're playing that game my Top 6 are The Bluebell, Great Central, Mid-Hants, NYMR, Severn Valley & The Worth Valley๐

Presumably the BritRail Pass makes commercial sense for non-Europeans who visit Britain, so why won't it add up if the same prices were charged to UK staycationers?๐คGenuinely puzzled?
