Lumo's refurbished Class 222 sets are being renumbered. The first set to be completed, 222001 has been renumbered 222601, and is in a six-car formation.
Going to bring some variety to the WCML.

A chapter closes on the South Western tonight.
The SETG have filtered out over the last few days to say thank you and farewell to the #SWR #Class455 fleet.
Almost all of us have worked on them at one time or another as fitter, guard or driver. We’re sad to see the end of them.

I see the rancid rats are out acting like 🔔🔚s in Cornwall today. Precisely why I went and did my farewell to the castle sets over the last couple of months.
Some in this hobby shouldn't be allowed out of their house without adult supervision let alone onto trains

Lovely to see 70006 through Basingstoke this evening under the December sunset.
This will very likely be the last ever Freightliner Class 70 working out of Southampton. Will miss seeing these fantastic locos. 💚

I’d just like to be VERY clear - the below post is fake, I have made ZERO contact with this person in regards to anything, railway related or not.
They’ve used the inspect element to alter the contents of a precious tweet I made years ago on a completely different topic.
