@realPeterSpokes@bessbbe@Codithss@Coast_Conductor Remember saying to @bessbbe I remember doing the farewell tour on that train and after that day I thought I will never see that train again. To then actually drive it on 3rd rails few years later was a shock to me & best day.
Never thought I’d be driving a 313 after the farewell
@midland__london I really do wonder if @DepartmentforT1 are trying to kill Britains railways. If they are they are doing a good job at it. It’s either that or they are completely clueless. They are getting rid of rail stock quicker than they even thought of what will be replacing the withdrawal
@danmcc41@downrelief@GWRHelp Or send over to @SouthernRailUK ready to replace the 313. With the diesel in them, they could even extend the Brighton to Southampton service to Salisbury. Be ideal to have a direct service to at least Salisbury from Brighton again, after @DepartmentforT1 axed @GWRHelp services
@CostaCoffee I rather the old system. Get points and spend them when you like. Instead one stamp per coffee and only get one free coffee was you got all eight stamps. And you have an expiry to claim you freebie. Seems to be a bit of a ripoff @CostaCoffee
@realPeterSpokes@EastKentRailway I need to pay you guys a visit!
I think more people would travel with Gatwick Express today if they brought these oldies back! I’d definitely use them.
