    I strongly suspect that as much as anything the direction of travel (or not) from WCR will be indicated by what people like the BLS and NELPG chose to do in terms of braking system fitments going forward.

    I have asked them for a timetable but all I got was 1030 and every 45 minutes. Impossible if I need to book train tickets and work out bus connections so I won’t bother
