Hope it is ok to post this here, if it should be bygone era, then please move it...Just looking through Youtube and came across a canny photovid, who, over the age of 25 remembers what happened to 3789 between Easington Lane and Murton Depot back in 1986???

3789 Go Ahead Northern MCW Metrobus

I was only 4 at the time but I seem to remember someone telling me about it.

I appreciate the photos as I don't bookmark Flickr but perhaps long flickr traffic driving posts could go in a different forum?

Didn't realise these were still going. I was sure they were hauled before the traffic comissioner for a major telling off a few years ago.

Wasn't sure where to place this but if it needs moving, feel free to move it.

I was sorting out under my bed yesterday and sorting box's out and i got all my timetables out of my box and.. u know when u have WAY to many..

I have to many to count...

How is your collection of Timetables?

Just read this on the BBC www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-essex-23974522

Does anyone if Snowdons still have the contract to run the Easington School bus services, just today I am almost certain I seen Pygalls flying banana in Murton, the same vehicle on the 230 this morning

Something I've noticed from the ECML over the past two weeks, and I noticed we didn't really have a place for such things, hence the new thread.

On Earlsway at the North End of team valley - near the Royal Mail depot - there's what looks like a red and pale yellow vertical stripe liveried Olympian parked up. Anyone know anything about this or what it actually is?

The title says it all...

It just came to me when my eldest was asking earlier on, about the amount of journeys I have taken by train (work or pleasure). I started trying to visually map these journeys and wondered if it was something that could be tied into others on here - to see what sort of pattern or trends emerged.

Would anyone else be up for this?
Obviously we would need to share the trips we have had (business or pleasure) and use a network rail map to illustrate the journeys.

Just to get started (I'll start North and work my way South), trying no to repeat journeys or mention return journeys.
