I believe @geofftech.bsky.social's data source is ORR dataportal.orr.gov.uk/statistics/i... which is based on usage numbers but updated only once a year (next on 22 Oct 2026). The methodology paper dataportal.orr.gov.uk/media/m15ijy... also discusses the discrepancies with Network Rail data.

Mainline stations
From 1 April 2015 the data source changed to be based on ORR’s Estimates of station usage dataset and data was revised back to 1 April 1997. Previously the number of stations was sourced from Network Rail via the Operational Property Asset System (OPAS). OPAS was not designed for this type of statistical reporting and the Estimates of station usage data is of higher quality for the following reasons:
* Station usage data includes mainline stations only. This includes stations managed by Network Rail, Transport for London (TfL), and other organisations on the mainline railway. Only stations open throughout the year are included, and closed stations are excluded. Estimates of station usage data only includes stations on the mainline rail network. Whereas stations on the Greater Manchester tram network and Tyne and Wear metro were included in the data provided by Network Rail.
* No double counted stations within Estimates of station usage data. Each station is counted once in the dataset; whereas the Network Rail source had some double counting due to a station being counted twice as higher and lower levels.
* Estimates of station usage data has clear methodology documentation for every year. Whereas the Network Rail data has a lack of documentation and some data quality issues throughout the time series.
* Not all new stations are recorded in the Network Rail source. Network Rail source the data from Operational Property Asset System (OPAS). Stations are included if they were deemed to be “live” and those with an operation status of “operational”, “null” and “combined”

Sadly, unlike the past two years, I'm not on a plane to London in May, so instead I put a book on a plane from London to me.

A few snaps from Frankfurt (Main) Hauptbahnhof while I was there for a few hours, connecting between my flight in and my ICE train out! (Maybe this time I'll actually post photos I've taken instead of procrastinating for a full year...)

@joebrownlondon.bsky.social Saw your post on Twitter about the Rail Atlas being at the National Railway Museum, and am happy to say that I did get myself a copy while I was there last month + got this nice photo of the display!

Six Invitational 2026 in Paris was amazing. And yes, I'm a few weeks late. I'm pretty bad at keeping my social media up to date, but I've made a post with a long-ish writeup over on Instagram: www.instagram.com/p/DVOwzApEtFC/

I've never been to MCM Comic Con but stayed in the area before, so it's really odd when I see photos of Comic Con from others and recognising the location, but my memory is of leisurely scrolls and having a meal deal on a bench outside of the City Hall lol

A farewell to our first-generation KHI C151 trains! 🫡 Some photos from the final revenue trips last week on Friday (26 Sep 2026). #ThankYouC151 I was also helping out on Sunday for the final commemorative ride, but didn't get many photos and wasn't on the train.

Yeappp I wish I could switch to an outline or light iconset instead of this. That 5G icon is especially hideous on mine!

A screenshot of my quick settings panel.

At the top-right, my mobile network status is really long: "giga (hilariously bold 5G icon) (reception icon) giga (reception icon)".

In the next row, an oddly tiny and thin key icon is between an alarm and battery icon.

1848 / 2018 / 2025. I love this juxtaposition of the old and the new. Lincoln Central railway station, Grade II listed, opened 1848. Class 800 Azuma bi-mode train (@lner.co.uk), built 2018. Me, taking this photo in 2025.

A smart, clean looking Class 800 train stands at a platform. It has a white base colour, with yellow on the front, and a red "swoosh" flowing from the nose and down the length of the train. In the background, a weathered platform shelter and beige station building, with beige bricks and a slate roof.

Charing Cross tube station, behind the scenes! Taken on a Hidden London tour of Charing Cross, run by the London Transport Museum. These are the disused Jubilee line platforms post-JLE, and construction access and ventilation tunnels. And yes, I highly recommend it, it's also very informative!

Looking up a tall, dark ventilation shafts. The sky is visible above sunlight reaching down into the depths of the tunnel.

I deleted that post for being potentially misleading because I found a contradicting source that says you have to buy it again, aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa store.steampowered.com/news/app/316... @innersloth.com pls make this clearer, it's currently really confusing.

If I own Among Us VR, do I have to buy Among Us 3D?
Yes. While crossplay features are available in the games, Among Us 3D and Among Us VR are considered separate games.

This said, when Among Us 3D officially launches on Steam, we'll be bundling the two versions together, offering current VR players a chance to grab the PC version at a discounted price.

There are folks complaining about performance issues, but R6 Siege in Y10S1 on DX12 is silky smooth for me.

Recently found out SimRail has ETCS implemented, so here's a short clip of the transition from NTC to Level 2 Full Supervision! It's a pretty good sim and I love the drive, but sadly the singleplayer scenarios are hours-long and there's no save function or the ability to begin midway.
