it's great to be back in the UK and to return to the guard giving a lecture over the PA about how tickets work and how you're in deep trouble if you've got something wrong

hello from OMSI 2

jet fuel prices have skyrocketed? lucky we live in such a time that you can do Edinburgh to Berlin entirely using electricity, then

what the hell

sunset from Gilmerton

PSD spam

every development in the North-South line makes me want to scream can we please be serious for a second

yes. hahaha yes #pigeonsky

tram updates are finally being posted somewhere other than twitter!

McGill's, 2026 vs McGill's 2025

From now on this is the only way i will travel

what am i even doing at this point

Transport Scotland have announced phase 3 of ScotZEB, which seems to include Lothian getting a custom order of 40 Volvo/ADL electric buses, which is surprising but would make sense (plus 20 wrightbuses) www.transport.gov.scot/public-trans...

well, there's a chance I've made my last journey on a Metrocar

truly one of the graphs of all time

www.scotrail.co.uk/about-scotra... to the surprise of literally nobody

kettle's boiled

greatest city in the world

I LOVE CURLING

finally used lumo for the first time, albeit only for a return journey to Glasgow

i realise i've barely said anything this year, have an assortment of postal vehicles

oh btw i now have a job yes it's transport related, no i'm not telling you what it is

some random old train

well that GBR livery is certainly a... thing

we used to be a country

look i knew getting trans healthcare on the NHS wouldn't be easy but i didn't expect the difficulty to begin with simply trying to get written confirmation of being on the waiting list

it's cool how post privatisation the UK made one good high speed train then decided to never do it again

i realise it's not as flashy as the Elizabeth line but the Victoria line continues to amaze me

welcome back to Scotland's premier intercity service (not an HST because they're ancient and broke down)

happy(?) 69 years of buses on the 23

what's the point of job applications that give a date but also say it may close early. why tell me a date if you're going to close two weeks in advance

bo'ness truly must have the worst public transport of anywhere in the central belt (especially given its size)

tried to verify my age to access my DMs and both methods bluesky gives you didn't work so uhhh

good evening internet here's a thread of me briefly escaping the country with @coastwaywill.me

"bendy buses could be better than trams" - the people who don't want aberdonians to realise they're getting a worse system to save a bit of money

spent railway200 looking at buses and the repair of a several month old 5km/h temporary speed restriction

glasgow's public transport is really infuriating, infrastructure wise it could easily become one of the best in the world for a city of its size (especially compared to edinburgh where almost everything's road based) but it gets held back by having no coherent leadership

can we get one in edinburgh please 🙏

i always forget how terrible the Edinburgh tram interior layout is for standing passengers

happy cycle hire eve everyone, remember to leave something out for voi claus

also reminder for trams via Orchard Brae: this will result in the removal of bike lanes along the route as there's no space, Roseburn maintains and in some cases improves the path

ok i can't be the only one who thinks that the subway by chappell roan kind of sounds like it could be a cocteau twins song

Finally got a ride behind 80105, BR Standard classes look beautiful

from the 8th September the N22, previously Lothian's most frequent nightbus, that served both the country's largest airport and one of its most densely populated areas will be fully withdrawn, having being cut back to a shadow of its former self

we have reached peak car

so it took me two hours to do a journey that would normally be 50-60 minutes faster

coming home to Edinburgh during the festival was a mistake, the buses are so chaotic as usual

wasn't planning on being in West Yorkshire yesterday but I'm not complaining

I've had a lovely few days off at the end of my long weekend First up, a large group of us went to Crich Tramway Museum. It's an incredible place to be with heritage trams and fun walks around the area! We had an incredible time as a group! We loved every minute!
