It’s 3 years since the final 153 worked for EMR. It had been due to finish its night on the Barton service but had failed at Great Coates due to lack of coolant so was attached to the rear of my Grimsby to Lincoln service then taken on empty to Nottingham.

There's a new NET Tram timetable today!

Core frequencies remain similar during the day, but some times have changed.

Trams are running every 7-8 minutes all through the evening until 00:00! That's double the frequency from before!

Tram-line. This is so tedious.

The pantographs are merely roof-mounted charger connections.

Why can't we celebrate a good bus because it has good safety features such as speed limiters, the shaped of the front and cameras for blind spots.

New tram-like buses begin running from Crystal Palace to Orpington
The vehicles use pantograph technology and have a structure attached to the bus roof to recharge them.

There's absolutely no reason to abuse transport staff, we're literally here to help you

Just had someone shout at me because we've "broken their contract" by not getting them to their stop - this isn't something that you should shout at Revenue Officers over
