I mainly retweet things. Occasionally I complain about stuff. I’m good at that. Views very much my own, not my employer, etc.

@imconormcgrath I want to know where @SharonStevenage got her jumper from, and where I can get one!

@GNRailUK morning guys, it looks like you are now running some services? I can see the 06:04 and 06:34 HIT>KGX both booked to run on your app and on RTT. Is this correct?

@LNER @redleaderwright This is incredibly sad news. Graeme was a champion of the railway and everything that is right in the industry. All my thoughts are with his family.

It’s still not coming home.

Trains as birds. A thread.

Us and a starling.

Last night the station team worked with @Se_Railway to get food donated by our @Pret and @StarbucksUK stores over to lorry drivers caught up in Operation Brock on the M20 in Kent.

This week we launched our new cleaning robots - they will play an important part in supporting our cleaning team and keeping the station a clean and safe place to visit.

We now need to name them... thoughts anyone? 🤔

We've found a new application for
@OpenSpace_Tech - monitoring #coronavirus #SocialDistancing at St Pancras station in real-time. Great working with @TLRailUK and @networkrail during this project.

@Harryslaststand Well. That’s a dumb statement, isn’t it? If I go into politics as an average earner, and continue to live by those means, but receive the salary the state provides, I’ll be richer. Over 100% a year, in fact. How much far richer do you mean?

@_doublearrow @travelling_wolf I should add, the original rationale for their introduction was not turbulence, but rather to avoid waiting passengers being struck by slam doors opened before a train had stopped in a station.

[Rob Shiel @robshiel_]

@_doublearrow @travelling_wolf It’s mandatory for new stations, and for stations where passenger trains pass >100mph and freight >60mph, as per RSSB guidance. Not sure when that came in though.

Hey @Ocado, our delivery was supposed to be here between 18:00 and 19:00. It’s now 19:49 and it still isn’t here, and we’ve had no contact. Any ideas?

@Nigel_95 @Nigel_Farage @pritipatel @BorisJohnson 1/2 You what mate? We’ve spent over a century accommodating folk from foreign lands to undertake work that the ‘British’ have deemed beneath themselves - Irish in the early 20th C, Asian and West Indian in the mid, European in the late. @pritipatel’s family included.

I would love to do another acoustic gig maybe Biggleswade
