    We don't say the military "loses" money every year, and we shouldn't for public transport.
    It doesn't LOSE money, it COSTS money!

    Mmm. Class 68s in Sheffield? Yes Please. I’m definitely going to ride the Nova 3 from Sheffield to Cleethorpes in May when they are in service. I can literally feel the engine noise in my head. Can’t wait to here that Caterpillar Engine.

    The TfW Mk4s are sticking around and in fact they’re getting more to run longer distance services that previously weren’t loco-hauled. The 197s are more to replace 158s & 175s.

    Hi David, little update from Spain. The proposals for the restart of night train operations have finally been shelved. CP asked renfe to reinstate the Lisbon to Madrid/Hendaye trains but all the Spanish operator could offer is an extension of the current daytime Madrid-Badajoz Intercity train to reach the Portuguese capital. A small rake of Talgo sleeper coaches has been sold to a Swiss company wanting to do tourist trains with them. The rest remain stored and for sale. The newer ones are being converted to daytime high-speed rakes.

    Re the new rail line (and hopefully through service soon) from Kunming to Vientiane, you said it's now possible in principle to get from western Europe to Singapore by rail. If I'm not mistaken, one would still need to cross the Mekong from Vientiane, Laos, to Nong Khai, Thailand, by other means. Vientiane and Nong Khai are not quite across the river from each other; they are connected by a bridge but it does not carry trains (to my knowledge).

    Maybe Thello could take over the Southeastern franchise and to inherit the remaining Class 707s from South Western Railway. And I still think that HS2 Eastern Leg should of got the approval to be built. Plus with electrification in Northern England.

    8:51 i can confirm that the 68s are loud af, but at the works/depo place what is just opposite me near enough, ive not heard any "too loud" sounds from it, but i will admit as fun as it is to see a 68 go down the line when waiting for the bus to town, they are very loud, i once confused one as a plane once before lol, but in my eyes its good for me because i get to see nice trains, but can also understand why people complain, and the 185s are silent in comparison, but 68s are amazing tho lmao

    I wanted to know why don’t they dig a tunnel and do an extension for the main line Train so they extend the unused abandoned underground stations.
    Why couldn’t they use the part D78 Stock train doors on the sides and also restructure the front face of the A60 and A62 stock and remix and make them all together and also redesign them overhead line and also make them into 5 cars per unit and also having 2 Disabled Toilets on those 5 cars per unit A60 and A62 stock trains and also convert the A60 and A62 stock trains into a Scania N112, Volvo TD102KF, Volvo B10M, Gardner 6LXC and Gardner 8LXB Diesel Engines and also put the Loud 7-Speed Voith Gearboxes in the A60 and A62 stock and also modernise the A60 and A62 stock and make it into a 11 car per unit so it could have less doors, more tables, computers and mobile phone chargers.
    A Stock Trains and also having 8 Disabled Toilets on those A stock trains. why couldn’t we refurbish and modernise the waterloo and city line Triple-Track train tunnel and make it more bigger and extend it to bank station, making it into a Triple-Track Railway Line so those 4 European countries such as Germany, Italy, Poland And Sweden to convert the waterloo and city line Triple-Track Train tunnel into an High Speed train.
    The Third Euro tunnel Triple-Track Train line to make it 8 times better for passengers so they could go from A to B. then put the modernised 11 car per unit A Stock and put them on a bigger modernised waterloo and city line Triple-Track train tunnel so it could go to bank station to those 4 European countries such as Germany, Italy, Poland And Sweden. The modernised refurbish 11 cars per unit A stock could be a High Speed The Third Triple-Track Euro Tunnel Train So it is promising and 37 times a lot more possible to do this kind of project that is OK for London Germany, Italy, Poland And Sweden.
    oh by the way, could they also tunnel the Triple-Track Railway Line so it will stop from Buckinghamshire, Hertfordshire and Essex so that the Passengers will go to Germany, Italy, Poland and Sweden and also extend the Triple-Track Railway Line from Bank to Buckinghamshire, Hertfordshire and Essex Stations so that more people from there could go to Germany, Italy, Poland And Sweden Easily.
    Why couldn't they extend the Piccadilly line and also build a brand-new underground train stations so it could go even further right up to Clapton, Wood Street and also make another brand new tunnel train stations in Chingford and could they extend the DLR.
    All of the classes 150, 155, 154, 117, 114, 105, 106, will be replaced by all of the Scania N112, Volvo TD102KF, Volvo B10M, Gardner 6LXC and Gardner 8LXB Diesel five carriages to disabled toilets are air conditioning trains including Highams Park for extend doing roots which is the Piccadilly line and the DLR trains.
    Could you also convert all of the 1973 stock trains into an air-conditioned maximum speed 78 km/hours (48 MPH) re-refurbished and make it into a 8 cars per unit if that will be alright, and also extend all of the Piccadilly train stations to make more space for all of the extended 8 car per unit 1973 stock air condition trains and can you also build another Mayflower and Tornado Steam Locomotive Companies and they can order Every 17 Octagon and Hexagon shape LNER diagram and unique small no.11 Boilers from those Countries such as Greece, Italy, Poland, and Sweden, can they make Mayflower and Tornado Steam Locomotive speeds by up to 117MPH so you can try and test it on the Original Mainline so it will be much more safer for the Passengers to enjoy the 117MPH speed Limit only for HS2 and Channel Tunnel mainline services, if they needed 16 Carriages Per units can they use those class 55’s, class 40’s and class 43HST Diesel Locomotive’s right at the Back of those 16 Carriages Per Units so they can take over at the Back to let those Mayflower and Tornado Steam Locomotive’s have a rest for those interesting Journeys Please!!, oh can you make all of those Coal Boxes’s 16 Tonnes for all of the 117MPH Mayflower and Tornado Steam Locomotive’s so the Companies will Understand us PASSENGER’S!! so Please make sure that the Builders can do as they are Told!! And Please do something about these very important Professional ideas Please Prime Minister of England, Prime Minister of Sweden, Prime Minister of Germany, Prime Minister of Italy, Prime Minister of Poland and that Includes the Mayor of London.😉😉😅😅😀😃🟩🟩👍🟩🟩👍😉😉😉😀😃😀😃😅😀😀😃😅😀😃😀😃👍😀😃😅😀😃😀😃😅😀😀😃😅👍😉😉😉😅😀😀😃😉😀😃😉😀😃😀😃😉😀😃😅😀😃😅😀😃😉😉😉😉👍👍😀😃😀😃😅😀😀👍🟩🟩👍🟩🟩😉😉😀😀😃😅😀😃😀😃😅😀😃😅😀😃😅😉😀😃😅😀😃😀😃😅😉😉😀😀😃😅😀😃😅😀😀😃😅😉😉😀😃😀😃😅😉😉😀😃😅😉😀😃😅😉😉😀😀😃😀😀👍🟩🟩👍🟩🟩😉😀😉😉😀😃😅😉😀😃😅😀😃😅😀😃😀😀😅😅😉😀😀😀😀😃😀😃😀😃😀😃😀😃😀😀😃👍🟩🟩😉🟩🟩👍🟩🟩😉🟩🟩👍

    Ah yes, typical British rail approach: grand plans, start building, realise "oh no we don't have enough money", shelve half of it, the complain why it's not making any money. Massive projects like HS2 are no good if they're half-arsed, look at HS1.
