This forum is primarily about issues / travel on First Great Western - the wedge Westwards from London, with an honourable mention for Brighton and Gatwick too. But there's great value in saying "what is happening elsewhere on the UK rail network" too, and that's what this particular board is here to discuss.
I've added a "UK Rail News" link in the top bar of this site that will take you to a headline feed (via twitter) of the latest dozen or so stories across the UK - the URL is :
http://twitter.com/ukrailnews if you want to bookmark it directly. And there's an alternative (longer) feed at :
http://www.google.com/reader/shared/12579636922872146507 if you prefer. See also Lee's blog at :
http://fletcherworld-fletcherworld.blogspot.com/The UK news feed is correlated by Lee ... excellent work, Lee - it gives those readers who want to look beyond the narrow confines of FGW the opportunity to do so from here, while also catering for those who don't want their feed diluted.
I know I'll be clicking through Lee's feed most days - a valuable sunmmary that keeps me in with the wider headlines!
