Current train travel status: the radio on this train is broken so the driver can't get his token to go on the single track - 17 minutes delay so far 🙃

Pup on Rails - a thread for (1/4)
(no touristy pictures following - sorry!)

what could go wrong if you hand a 5-day ticket to someone like Rufus?
exactly - fear and terror be spread on 's rail network.
our trip extended to over 1500 km and 26 hrs of 'train time' in total

but the journey started off with an easy trip from Newcastle () via Carlisle () to Glasgow...

Decided to go into the office for the first time in a few months and the return train tickets have gone up to £14.30! When I first moved here 6 years ago, it was something like £6.70. I’ll keep working from home, thanks. Blimey. I thought had been nationalised to reduce fares.

@deltatux In other news, normal trains without any supplemental £££ fees continue to run the exact same so-called railway with exactly the same views out of the windows.

(Sadly the windows can't be opened enough for proper photography, though. But if you dare, or use some proper strap that keeps it attached to your hand, you can poke a small camera or cellphone through the small top window that opens a bit.)

Photos from early April this year.

Heute gibt es mal eine kleine -Pause. Zu Balmoral Castle 🏰 kommt man ja leider nur per Gummibus…

Wenn wenigstens ein Doppeldecker auf meiner Linie fahren würde. Aber leider nein. Zwei Stunden lang Linie 201 jetzt.

Thank you to the legend who did this on a stationary train (seen at about 21:10 tonight) at Glasgow Queen Street High Level Platform 3 - you've put a big grin on my face! 😁😁

Product placement. Saved some of the for today’s walking and climbing. Staying in a cheap hotel in . (The hotels in the more famous (?) Aviemore, close by, were clearly more expensive.)

Time has come to compare the four flavours of shortbread biscuits from First Class: The winner is “Buttery & Crumbly”. But not by any big margin. @mkivinen @siegeavecvue

I’m quite impressed by the Passenger Assistance app. Fully and provides lots of info on available train journeys. I’ve arranged my weekend assisted travel and got confirmation that assistance was booked within only a few minutes. I hope the actual journeys go as smoothly.
