It’s been a busy couple of weeks. Firstly, I attended the First TransPennine Express Autumn Stakeholder Business Update Forum, which was a fantastic opportunity to talk directly with the management and mingle with the other rail user groups in the North. Overall the event was excellent. Secondly I also attended East Coast’s naming ceremony of the loco 91 111 “For the Fallen” on the 14th October at Newcastle. The striking vinyls on the locomotive were fitting as well, providing a poignant reminder of the human cost of war.
We are currently working on our Christmas Newsletter, where I’ll report on both of these events in more detail.
