Richmond or Stratford?
I other news, 365's still operating north of Cambridge - I saw one at Ely yesterday. But was it going beyond Ely to King's Lynn? No. Does that matter? The position as I understood it was that 365s are no longer going to King's Lynn. Since there are no now? hourly trains to Ely I am not surprised that they are going there. Looking at the timetable it appears that the Ely starters at xx:58 don't join at Cambridge (at xy:15), so no 365 units needing to stable there for a while. Whereas the Kings Lynn trains arrive Cambridge at xx:41 and spend six minutes coupling to the spare half of the xx:30 arrival from Kings Cross (before departing south at xx:47. While there's a certain diagramming elegance to this, it means that Ely passengers don't get 2tph "new trains" as promised. Misters Rosenstiel and Perry, do you even know what group you are in? I know a bit of off-topic stuff is inevitable and even welcome, but you two are repeat offenders. |

Like it or not, at the very least Cambridge North on what will soon become Thameslink is a London train service. -- Roland Perry |
