Wattage Watch - Peterbrorough
This from Oliver Cromwell...
All
lights on Platform 3 at Peterborough station seem to be left on 24
hours a day.
The sun was so bright at 9' this morning that it's hard to tell, but even the one above this sign was on!
Pointless signs - Hungerford Bridge
Does 'The Rail Authority' know the difference between 6 and 7?
Not to mention the abominable 0207, which is NOT a London telephone code!
(Unusually, Eye agrees with Globetrotter. The correct exchange is of course WATerloo. Ed)
Lowrie to Keolis as CFO
This from Keolis...
Keolis UK appoints first chief financial officer
UK public transport operator, Keolis UK, has appointed David Lowrie
as its new Chief Financial Officer, to support its growing presence in
the UK.
David moves into this newly created role with over 20 years of
commercial experience including several high profile posts within the
UK rail sector.
From an early career at KPMG and Powell Duffryn, he joined Prism
Rail PLC as Group Financial Controller. He has since held a number of
director level positions including Group Finance and Commercial
Development Director at the Grand Central Group.
Very good, carry on.
Reading Upgrade - Ooops moment?
This from Citizen Smith...
...was this part of the grand plan or was it supposed to be in the right place first time round?
New track in place of old centre road for soon to be moved platform 7. I think.
Yellow mushroom was plonked in splendid isolation at Easter.
