Post 1 of 2. Faster journeys on @TfL District line between Becontree and Upminster from today thanks to computerised signalling that drives trains automatically - achieving higher speeds between stations of up to 56mph (90 kph). At least a full minute is saved in each direction

Good news for @EastMidRailway customers as EMR Connect services will be able to run at a higher speed of 110mph on parts of the route between London St Pancras and Bedford in the coming months.

Faster journeys on @TfL Metropolitan line services as Finchley Road to Wembley Park and Preston Road switched to automatic train operation. Trains top speed increased to 100 km/h - 62 mph - and faster acceleration cutting journey times by at least 1 to 2 min in each direction.

Arr there any stations in the UK looking as overgrown as Calais? Orient Express passengers paying 1000 euros per ticket not equipped with scythes to cut through the 'jungle'

Highlight of this summer - riding a train that looks remarkably similar to @greateranglia Stadler trains to enjoy the amazing Swiss mountain and lake views along the original Gotthard rail route from Giubiasco to Arth Goldau
A rare chance to experience a taste of classic Intercity travel at its very best before the Pendolino revolution. Is there a chance this preserved loco and coaches can beat the fastest recorded loco hauled time of 100 min 51 seconds time from Crewe to London Euston?

Rail fares debate - Speed or Price? - walk on fares Milan to Bologna (think London to Brum or Norwich) single ticket- appx 125 miles - £41 on a 186mph high speed train taking just over one hour or £14.35 on a slower regional stopping service taking nearer 3 hrs. Choices!!
Any thoughts on the news that the UK's latest @HitachiRailENG train fleet run by @GWRHelp @LNER @TPExpressTrains @LumoTravel is to no longer run at a maximum speed of 125mph. All trains within the Class 800/801/802 fleet are to be fitted with a speed limiter of 200 km/h.

20 sec a 300 km/h, ça en fait des kilomètres parcourus. D’où la présence d’autant de fil. Mais pourquoi cette règle des 20 secondes?
Time for a ride aboard Italy's Frecciarossa train along the Adriatic before the 200km/h upgrade is complete. Mainly 150km/h maximum speed between Brindisi and Bologna with a few stretches of 180km/h and a few short stretches of 200km/h at present.
Travelling aboard @LeFrecce, interesting to note that UK master series 2 overhead catenary uses components from this Italian originated design @25kV. Except the supports are a much lighter lattice design @GarethDennis @RAIL @Clinnick1 @RAILexpress @RAILadvent @Modern_Railways
Yuck.. No water to flush loos or wash hands in coach 343003 on the 1238 lst to Ips @greateranglia
How long before this brake van crumbles apart.... Must be rusted onto the rails by now!
