SWR comes under public ownership on Sunday at 0159. The next service would normally be the 0227 from Guildford to Waterloo, but that has been cancelled.

My understanding is that the first train out of Waterloo will be a GBR rebrand....

This picture of a 701 with a bit of sticky tape along the side is on railforums, though I think it was "leaked" first via Reddit. Why it hasn't been used officially is a puzzle: that does look like an official Heidi Alexander. And while we might think it's such a limp squib it's too embarrassing to crow about, DfT's PROs don't embarrass easily (if at all). | Re: First nationalised train will be replacement bus Posted by ChrisB at 18:24, 24th May 2025 | |
Errrr....what picture?

I've taken a look at the URL posted and it appears that the image will only be visible to members who are also logged in to railforum ... "You must be logged-in to do that" is what I got when I tried to load the image.

Ah. yes it does work that way, doesn't it. Well, if I upload a copy it will have the same restriction here (but may be a bit bigger than ideal):

The only URL that I can see in this thread is for the BBC News item. No URL for railforums that I can see.
