The government has released the proposed temporary liveries that it is going to stick on trains once GBR is set up but before they finish rolling out the Scrabble Union Jack Edition livery. We take a closer look, think about better options and explain why actually it IS important to get the look of trains right. We'll also be covering a heap of news, not least the aftermath of the horrific Urda high speed crash in Spain, we'll be revisiting the LZB signalling system and asking ourselves: is Puente's resignation enough?

How Treasury Broke Britain: The History of PFI (Part 1) | #Railnatter 323

The East Coast Main Line between Newcastle and Edinburgh is possibly the most beautiful mainline in Britain, but from an operational perspective, it’s a mess. It might not be as slow as you think, but thanks to heavy usage by intercity services, the local stations suffer – indeed, this section of railway has some of Britain’s least used railway stations on it.But what can we do to fix it? this evening, that’s exactly what we’ll be looking at in all the detail you’ve come to expect. Oh, and we'll explain why Reston and East Linton stations were built wrong.NE bus consultation here: https://betterbusesne.org.uk/Support #Railnatter at https://patreon.com/garethdennis.
