I'm guessing you work for LNER or GWR..? I won't ask you to say though, but nice work getting a job with them! Are you a driver?
Like you say I can't say which one I work for as I have had a slap on the wrist for saying that in the past so do not want to risk that one again! Thanks mate I have been on the railway for most of my life as I started in the early eighties for BR when I was still a lad, which was tough, though it was better than being on the farm! The answer to your last question is a very easy one and is yes mate.
Why won’t you ask him? Are you a train driver as well or is it just Matt who is a train driver. If you are congrats to you as well.
Matt is the train driver, he doesn't want to disclose information that his TOC won't allow as he has been caught before and was in big trouble so doesn't want that to happen again
basically... What TrainGeek08 said. Many drivers have been told off before about talking about their rail company on a public forum. Plus, I don't want anyone getting into any trouble cause of me. To answer your second question: I wish I was a train driver but not yet. I'm planning on applying for an apprenticeship soon though
Thank you both for clearing that up. Matt is the driver now but Nathan wants to be a driver in the future so good luck to you! I have a feeling he works for LNER because in other threads he has said about how much he wants the ECML and that he has lived in houses which back onto it all his life. My railway joke is literally two words: On time!!
No problem, I don't think Matt will say yes or no because of the above reasons but good presumption though
Omg. XD Your right though. I saw on the news today that train cancellations are record high these last few weeks
You laugh but at times it can be like living with a wild lion especially at the minute as she wants a new car!! I think I had better change the password to the computer though or I will be on toilet cleaning duty for the week!!
Well I am off the hook at the moment but the wife insists on doing them on Tuesday evenings and Friday mornings. I dare not say it to her face but she reminds me of Hyacinth Bucket from keeping up appearances at times!!
Hello! I try to find happiness in the smallest things possible. I know everyone says that and not everytime its true but one can atleast try. We’re living in these tough situations, we cannot go out that often, life sometimes get monotonous but I try to extract my happiness from these times as well. For example food,wilbursoot hoodie, good food makes me the happiest. A good plate of pasta, a warm box of pizza, a good warm cup of coffee. These little things really make my day.
Barry Cryer told a great joke about a lady reading a bible on the train, but I suspect posting it here would be against forum rules.
Not a joke but a poem. You took the last bus home you took the last bus home i still don’t know how you got it through the door but you’re always doing amazing stuff like the time when you caught that train Brian Bilston
Allow me to present a few things which count both as a 'train' and a 'joke'. ( When I saw this reboot, it felt like someone bulldozed the playground where I used to play as a kid... )

That didn't impress you all much? It is, as MYG92 correctly identified, the GoldenPass Express Pictured is world-famous Canadian music star Shania Twain stood in front of it as she officially inaugurated it "Shania Train" on Friday in Gstaad. Guess I should have posted in the puns thread instead...
I dunno if this counts but... I showed my gran the forums. She was confused why everyone had the same face and if they were okay because they looked a bit yellow.
