Re: Which train service am I on? #5
Does the London terminal see more than 50% of trains that are diesel?

This is a Central line train to "Woodford via Hainault"- sadly, not no more!

That question implies that in order to get a yes answer, more than 50% of the entire existing fleet of diesel trains would have to visit it regularly.

Re: Which train service am I on? #5
I think the question should have been worded 'are more than 50% of the trains that visit this station diesel powered?'.
I'm sure RobbieM will be forgiving rather than pedantic.

Miscommunication leads to incidents, especially on the railway.

Does the train terminate at either Tring, Milton Keynes Central, or Northampton?

Nope - none of the above three is the termination station of this service. (9/20)tractakid wrote:Does the train terminate at either Tring, Milton Keynes Central, or Northampton?

Is your train operated by a subsidary of First Group?

Re: Which train service am I on? #5
I am still trying to work out what operator you are travelling with....
Of those with OHLE and a London Terminal it can't be C2C, LE, FCC, VT or FGW (or HEX as PAD has more diesel trains than electric). Which leaves LM but tractakid has already asked about them....
Are you on the SET high speed line?
