Our love affair with the train (BBC Radio 4 this evening)
Fri, 19 Sep 2008 13:48:20 -0700 (PDT)
'A Point of View', 20:50-21:00 Radio 4 this evening featured Lisa
Jardine contrasting travel by train with other methods. Somewhat off-
topic for both of these groups as she speaks mainly of her experiences
in Holland, but may be of interest. A transcript, and audio stream
are available here:

Timetable Supplements ?
Fri, 19 Sep 2008 21:34:38 +0100
The printed NRTT contained weekend times only until September for Table 65
(WCML) & some other tables.
The on-line pdf version (National Rail site) still has this same version of
Table 65, whilst the only "update" file available seems to be a June
Supplement, which also contains nothing for the September - Dece ...

Avantix codes for U12 etc
Fri, 19 Sep 2008 18:56:46 +0100
I looked for a (single) fare from Gatwick to Waterloo East, and Avantix
he say ¡ê11.10 [not Gatex].
Having arrived at Gatwick there was an impressively confusing screen on
the ticket machine, and that's without the added complication of wanting
a single (machines in general seem highly biassed towards returns) ...

East Midlands Parkway, and Winter Timetable
Fri, 19 Sep 2008 15:16:10 +0100
I drove past the other day, and it's still a building site. Couldn't see
the lineside aspects but the access road isn't finished yet.
Only 12 weeks to go to the Winter timetable (due online shortly
presumably - they claim 12 weeks and are showing services up to the 11th
December currently).
Must have a loo ...
