  1. #London Northwestern #Railway (LNR) will add 42,000 extra seats a week on services to and from London #Euston as part of a national timetable change starting on Sunday 17 May. The operator is completing the rollout of its new Class 730/2 electric trains on routes between London and Milton Keynes and along the Trent Valley Line to destinations in #Staffordshire, #Warwickshire and #Buckinghamshire.

    The longer trains will provide around 5,700 extra seats each weekday, increasing capacity on LNR’s Euston routes by 20%. Trains being replaced will instead be used to lengthen Birmingham services, creating more than 14,000 additional weekly seats.

    LNR is also offering 50% off advance fares to London for travel in June. Timetable changes include a new weekday direct service between Walsall and Euston and two extra Saturday evening services between Birmingham and Liverpool.

  2. Happened upon a de-badged, ex-East Midlands Railway Meridian heading into #Euston.

    #Lumo will be using these on their new service to Stirling which starts later this year and which will bring #DuttyDiesel back to this stretch of the line a few months after Avanti dropped their Voyagers for IETs.

  3. The #Metpol #officers /were/ brave and evacuated the #hostel residents in #Euston #London from the #fire - but I'm also wondering why they were first on scene before #LFB - and why the Asian officer is in plain clothes other than hi-vis, his face is blurred from the video, and using what appears to be a civilian mobile phone rather than an Airwave set? Was it a test of ESN (Emergency Services Network?) Did CID have the place already under observation for some reason?
