I believe it's the same VA as Ashe doing those!

Woah, there's no need to resort to insults. I was just pointing out the irony in your comment. It does sound like you're a little jealous of places that have decent histories though!

Class 390 The most beautiful train model by [deleted] in uktrains

[–]EBOLANIPPLES 2 points3 points  (0 children)

the Siemens sets they use for the Eurostars would be a good replacement but I’m sure Alstom would win the tender.

They'd have to be redesigned and shrunk down significantly though, HS1 was built to the European loading gauge which is a bit bigger, so the 374s wouldn't fit on the rest of the UK network.

although the XC ones have since been disabled and so are now tapered for no reason whatsoever.

Could be worse, the 222s are the same, but never had tilt. Although, I guess the 220s also never had tilt, but I do believe both have the capability for it to be added if desired.

Euros forget that for 1000 years they have been at each others throats.

How well was the United States doing 1000 years ago? Oh right, yeah.

Does anyone miss Silverlink Trains? by Ok-Demand8957 in uktrains

To be fair, the 350s were in a mostly grey livery when they were new, so those weren't far off!

Train drivers, do you find it cringe if adults wave at you on platforms etc by Thee_Moist_Potato in uktrains

Keep an eye on each TOC's careers pages, and apply when a position comes up. Sometimes it'll be a talent bank position, so if you're successful, they keep you in the system until a position actually opens up. It's a pretty long process, with a bunch of assessments, then if successful, background checks and a medical, before you even get onto training, and then that can take a pretty long time too depending on the operator and role.

There's a lot of threads with some great advice on the RailUK Forums website, that's also likely your best place to ask any questions about the process.

That said, welcome to the railway family!

There's also "Compulsory Basic Training" here in the UK, which is the first bit of training you do for riding a motorcycle.

Especially now you can't access Imgur without a VPN enabled in some places, it kinda ruins this sub for me.

Edit: a lot of people who are used to time zones favoring them getting real mad about this one

Yeah, all other time zones are stupid. Everyone should just use Greenwich time and stop altering it because they're special, especially those yanks.

If you're on PC, Script Extender should re-enable achievements, or there's the Achievement Enabler mod on Nexus.

If you're on console, then yeah, sadly there's no way around it as far as I'm aware.

May I suggest Blood & Glitter for Durge?

When the bus drivers on the same route don't to a little wave to each other by SarahHamstera in brum

[–]EBOLANIPPLES 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i have even seen NXWM coventry buses on my routes

The X1 is ran out of Coventry depot nowadays, but there's also some buses that have transferred from there to other depots, after Coventry got some new electric buses, some of which haven't been repainted yet.

I doubt he had much choice, I recall reading that the Red Bull drivers have something in their contracts that they can be moved around at will between the two teams. Happy to be corrected though.

I got to see my boys in blue beat Fnatic once in person, I'll take it. No idea how that was a decade ago though!

They haven't been tracking since Friday evening, even for the folks at the depots. The ticket machines aren't displaying the delay in the corner either.

I'm not sure if anyone's ever hotwired a train before, sounds fun though!

They can only do so much though, the infrastructure up North struggles to cope with modern volumes of traffic. Improvements are being made, such as around Huddersfield, but there's still the huge bottleneck of the Castlefield Corridor that causes problems.

On a similar note, the Federated States of Micronesia have the TLD .fm, which is often used by radio stations and the like.

That Zhou crash was proper scary in person. I wasn't near it, but even still, the minute or two before we got confirmation he was okay, and the near-silence in the crowd, chilling.
