  • Newsletter of Railfuture in Wales
    Issue 64 Spring 2018 Rail Wales Newsletter of Railfuture in Wales A sign of the changing times: a HST 125 enters Cardiff Central in January 2018 shortly after the first electrification masts had been installed. By the end of 2018 the new bi mode trains supplied by Hitachi should have replaced the 40-year-old HSTs on the Swansea-London route. Photo: Julian Langston Rail Wales issue 64 Spring 2018 www.railfuturewales.org.uk Page 1 WELCOME Rail Wales is published every six months and looking back at events since the last issue, it sometimes seems that the fast pace of significant news would require a weekly issue to keep Railfuture members up to date with the ever-evolving rail scene. Needless to say, the ongoing saga of the letting of the Wales and Borders franchise provides the main focus of attention. Shortly before the last issue of Rail Wales appeared, Arriva announced that it was withdrawing from the bidding process. This reduced the bidders to three. However, the withdrawal of a second bidder in February 2018 was not as a result of that company (Abellio) deciding to walk away but as a result of the financial collapse of its civil engineering partner, Carillion. The two bidders still standing are Keolis and MTR. With only two companies now competing, this weakens the hand of Transport for Wales (the organisation set up by the Welsh Government to undertake the selection of the new operator) to obtain the best outcome. It is hoped that the ongoing discussions, which are nearing conclusion, will result in a franchise award which provides existing and potential new rail users in Wales and adjacent areas of England with a markedly improved service in terms of service frequency, reliability, comfort and value for money.

The Peltons comprises three separate phases of development on the border of a desirable conservation area less than 750 metres from the River Thames and the backdrop of Canary Wharf and the Greenwich peninsula. * Computer Generated Images GREAT CONNECTIONS INTO THE CAPITAL AND BEYOND The Peltons’ location to the east of Greenwich places it in an area close to everything Greenwich has to offer. The heart of Greenwich is a gentle stroll away along the river, while the Cutty Sark DLR is less than a mile along Blackwall Lane and Trafalgar Road. Other local transport options are plentiful, including a frequent train service from Maze Hill of just 14 minutes into London Bridge. Alternatively, a Thames Clipper service operates from Greenwich Pier, with a journey time of just 33 minutes to Blackfriars Pier. To the north of The Peltons is Greenwich Park, home to The Royal Observatory and the location for some of London’s best views, which is less than 800 metres from the development. “ A vibrant area close to Greenwich, Greenwich Park and a short walk from the river front” Canary Wharf O2 Cutty Sark THE PELTONS Greenwich GREENWICH Royal Observatory GREENWICH’S EAST VILLAGE East Greenwich’s desirable conservation area is on the doorstep, comprising a network of charming early Victorian residential streets, some of them still cobbled.

  • Outline of the Tudor Side of Things... It Is 1524 and Nell Is 15 and a Maid In
    Outline of the Tudor side of things... It is 1524 and Nell is 15 and a maid in waiting to Catherine of Aragon, when she meets Anne Boleyn newly returned from the French court. Poor Nell hasn't had a very happy time at court as she is seen as an outcast and perhaps a traitor as well. People in court have long memories and blame her father for the death of their loved ones in battle. Her father was forgiven his folly and now is a trusted employee of the court. Nell and Anne Boleyn become friends. Nell's father is Lambert Simnel Nell survives the storm that breaks with Anne's death and goes on to see Elizabeth crowned Queen. When Nell dies, the story skips back into the modern day, and Judith goes home to stay with her parents for a few weeks. During that time, she talks to her father about what happened in St Peter ad Vincula, and he admits that he is a direct descendant of Nell's eldest son Charles. Her father leaves the room and comes back with a box, in the box is Anne's B necklace which has been in their family for centuries. It now belongs to Judith. The ringing of my alarm clock sounded loudly in the warm May morning, I reached out and swiped the clock off my bedside cabinet where it fell to the floor with a loud thud. I sighed and snuggled down, hoping to get just a few more minutes of peace, but the alarm clock rang out defiantly.
