Foster Yeoman liveried 59003 ‘Yeoman Highlander’ heads west through Reading with a trainload of aggregates. I remember thinking how odd these looked and sounded at the time!

Raising the flag (well, banner actually) outside Reading station. We had competition from Christmas shopping, but managed to give out some leaflets before retreating to The Pantry for a catch-up and chinwag.

I have an old photo of an HST my mum took 22 years ago and I'm still annoyed that we didn't take the number of it :(

In the unlikely event someone has info, I've added information of said photo in the Alt Text.

@gwr.com had the mother of all access fails today. Not just forgetting ONE #Disabled passenger at #Reading station but THREE of us! Alt text in screen grabs, yes a formal complaint is being lodged, this incident was inexcusable. @elizabethline.bsky.social #TFL #ElizabethLine #ReadingStation
Collage of 3 photos showing a tall male passenger doing the GWR staff’s job for them by fetching the wheelchair ramp to get three disabled people: 1 wheelchair user and 2 mobility scooter users, off an Elizabeth line train at Reading Station. He unfolds it, places it carefully in the doorway, ensures the tabs are securely locked into the slots so it won’t move, and assists us off the train I need to VENT! You might notice that's not a member of train station staff at Reading deploying a ramp - that's Matt, using MY ramp key. It'd be bad enough if it was only ME who they forgot about, despite confirming to Langley when I got on that they'd be waiting for me with a ramp to get me off the train, but NO. THERE WERE FUCKING THREE OF US. Each boarded at a different station, every single station had radioed Reading to check they were ready to assist with a ramp to get their disabled passenger off on arrival. THREE FUCKING TIMES Reading replied that they were ready to assist. THREE. Did any member of staff turn up? Of course fucking not. If I hadn't had the foresight to go on ebay and track down a British Rail ramp unlocking key myself for situations where the station staff lose their own, or if Matt hadn't been with me, we would ALL have remained stuck on an empty, terminated train. We hit the alarm buttons next to the wheelchair spaces TWICE to call for help. Driver had fucked off. Driver ALSO knew when each of us was boarded - the platform staff signal them by hand on approach, holding the bright yellow ramp, and the driver returns the wave to acknowledge that they understand a(nother) "MIP" is being boarded and is on their train. The driver got off and fucked off when it terminated, without checking that we had been disembarked, so there was no one there to hear the alarm. Another passenger went to try to find a member of staff, so did Matt. They saw one, waved at him to come over, and he just turned and walked the other way. Only AFTER Matt had rescued us himselt did one saunter along, to do nothing but give us a surly attitude then fuck off again. Apparently no manager or duty manager anywhere either. I mean disabled people get forgotten ALL THE TIME, we honestly come to expect it, but THREE OF US???? Reading literally HAD to respond on the radio THREE separate times to say "yes, we acknowledge the train number they are arriving on, and we are ready to assist", so they lied to their colleagues three times as well. because the station we leave from will NOT put us on a train UNTIL the recieving station has confirmed they can get us off it again on arrival
