    Those Amfleet coaches for their age are looking great. From the coloring scheme to the design & maintenance.
    Unlike ours here in Greece, looking like crap with all the graffiti smeared in coaches and no massive maintenance.

    Correct here It Was a problem in the subway system but not the commuter rail/Amtrak system in the 1970s-1980s.

    The other day I was recording some trains on Vicálvaro station in Madrid and I found this beauty: Serie 598.326 of "Media Distancia"

    I hope some day the devs can bring these trains to Train Sim World...

    For those who wonder how I got into railways and trains in general, and eventually into TSW itself...

    Maybe these images of a morning de-icing train, operate by two GBRF Class 66's might give a clue...

    For someone who's lived in Immingham for the past 12 years it's interesting to see what the railways around Immingham docks, Grimsby and Cleethorpes used to look like back in the 80s & 90s

    Train in platform 1 at Hull last night, first time in over 40 years (around that long anyway)
    20240317_011010.jpg notwithstanding those who were on it when it arrived, I (along with one other) am the first to have boarded a train from platform 1 (ignore the cleaning trolleys I couldn't be asked moving).

    Is Hull still anti-photo? I've encountered many enthusiasts who have been yelled at at Hull for trying to take photos

    It's more relaxed from what I've seen. No one's been yelled at yet to my knowledge.

    Awesome thank you. I understand it got a reputation a while back for being unfriendly. I know Blackpool North is still very unfriendly and has been for decades.

    Going outside on a very miserable day, just so I can capture this was totally worth it.

    An engineering train, top & tailed by two Freightliner Class 66/5's (66512 & 66520) passing by on it's way back to Eastleigh, coming from the engineering works taking place a little further down the line.
    IMG_0660.JPG
    I even captured a short video of it, which you can find via the link below:

    Had a wonderful visit to Munich on Monday - a wonderful city indeed. Here are a few pics of Munich Hbf as well as Munich Pasing. While it was brilliant to see so many trains, the BR 111 and Beacon ES 64 were the highlights.

    Enjoy! :)

    Local to me here in the Scottish Borders is the Whitrope Heritage Centre located on the old Waverley line just at the Whitrope tunnel and just up from Riccarton junction all run by volunteers. Paid them a visit today

    Well looks like the 769s that got dragged to Kilmarnock for “tests” were given Pathings between Kilmarnock and barassie for some unknown reason however the actual news is I went to go check Brodie works and one seems to be in unbranded ScotRail Blue…? Thoughts?

    With all of the speculation of a 120 with an ic dvt I thought I would share my photo of a 120 at Munich having pushed through a dvt. BF3D3E35-6FCF-4CF6-AF7E-68A54FA1DF02.png Moves for the evening were:
    103 245 Munich-Augsburg
    120 155 Augsburg-Munich
    218 401 Munich-Lindau.
    None of those moves would be possible now which is sad to think.

    Some of my pictures from my visit to Leeds, 28th March 2024.
    I managed to cab a train while I was there, and got a lot of waves and tones off the drivers! It was a great day!

    Oh, my bad.
    I'm not going against you, but how? The driver isn't in view nor are the times stated and neither is the working so how would anybody know who the driver was?
    (I'll go ahead and change the pictures now though.)

    Very nice mate, I had 91 111 a couple of weeks ago. I would be careful posting pictures of cab on here though, especially with the date as they have been very hot on people being let in the cabs and it is not the most pleasant conversation to have if they find out we've let someone in.

    Edit: sorry I see 25262 has got in before me with the last part!

    In the modern world they are very strict with drivers letting the public near a cab and trust me they will look who was meant too work the train and they will not be happy. But good for you getting a look inside a 91
