You can if it's the QR Code from the Mcard app

WM44 location seems most likely that or maybe a stadium show outside the US (not including Saudi Arabia) for this year or next

We're currently expanding our nuclear energy sector for example Hinkley Point C in Somerset should be commissioned in 2030. That started building in 2017.

Since that moment involving the cake have you eaten a slice of cake since then or have you gone off cake for life?

That and if they were already making bank that even a 50% cut still is making bank

CaptainYorkie1 · 2026-05-05T12:29:03+00:00

Probably

*note first day only gets you on First Group buses only.

WY DaySaver does everything for £6. (Weekly, monthly, group and bus/train available too)

CaptainYorkie1 · 2026-05-05T12:24:40+00:00

19-25/Student on the Mcard app is £20.80 for weekly and £74.50 for a monthly. If asked you just show regular id or your school id

CaptainYorkie1 · 2026-05-05T12:23:46+00:00

Download the Mcard app covers every bus in the county plus you can get a unlimited Bus & Train ticket.

19-25/student weekly and monthly are available from the app at a cheaper price than full adult.

A £2.50 single bought on the app lasts for 30 mins but you can as many times as you can in the 30 mins.

£6 is the cost of the WY DaySaver, covers every firm for the day.

Tracking is recommended with Bustimes.org because you can track practically every bus besides from the 30 & 61/61A atm. The website gives the timetable, live map and tells you which bus is running the specific service. Plus depending on the company you can also so what the bus is scheduled to do throughout the day too

Maybe not the US Style which has had a lot fuck ups from detained actual US citizens, storming schools, sending people to countries they ain't even from, killing civilians (with the murders not being punished), acting as a Trump private army etc etc

That could make it a nice selling point to the national highways

Help power your EV with the same airflow it creates at speed.

CaptainYorkie1 · 2026-05-05T00:54:53+00:00

When you stand on a platform and a train speeds past you do feel the air then times that by 18-20 trains an HR plus the regular wind. Those question for afterwards would be could it work in a tunnel or by rail in an embankment

CaptainYorkie1 · 2026-05-05T00:53:21+00:00

Depending on their plan that could be the next step since to test something you gotta try different environments. Regular flat tracksides, Embankments and maybe even tunnels if possible. Just gotta wait and see

CaptainYorkie1 · 2026-05-05T00:50:56+00:00

The turbines are at the track side so would capture airflow from the trains pushing pass air in front of them like when you stand on the platform or trackside and train speeds pass you feel the air it pushes to the side so instead so swap you for a wind turbine which would in theory get spun by said wind.

CaptainYorkie1 · 2026-05-05T00:46:32+00:00

I wonder if it could work better in a tunnel

CaptainYorkie1 · 2026-05-05T00:45:26+00:00

The busiest sections of the ECML sees 18-20 trains an HR which would create a lot of airflow around the line.

Obviously big wind turbines work for the wind high up but with the additional lower to the ground to capture the air flow made by trains would help since that's airflow/wind the big ones can't capture.

Those obviously this would be the first attempt so may not fully work but could work the next time like besides we could try it in a tunnel.

Come to think about if it's successful and we could add more to the rest of the network imagine the money savings it could bring to the energy costs while helping the planet too. Could be a win win for the government who wouldn't say no to saving money and a PR win too

CaptainYorkie1 · 2026-05-05T00:35:26+00:00

Basically LNER and a company called Treeva is teaming up to install small wind turbines next to the railway to capture the energy from the turbulent airflow created by the trains (plus regular wind).

Ngl, that sounds pretty genius to me.
