8. #RAILNATTER is a semi-topical weekly talk show about all things rail. i went on to discuss three classic american movies with transport as their central motif—SPEED, WHO FRAMED ROGER RABBIT, and THE WARRIORS—and together we figured out how they reflect american attitudes toward mass transit

I wondered why you were wearing a suit jacket in this evening’s #railnatter - now I why!

Tomorrow night's #Railnatter is a biggie - given the criticality of the Gorton and Denton by-election, we'll be diving into one of the big issues that matters for local folk: TRANSPORT, and how far off good it is on this side of Manchester.

You might know about our mainline episodes, but did you know that #Railnatter has weekly bonus episodes that you get when you subscribe at the £5+ tiers?

Tonight, we looked at what Labour Together had been saying in the transport sphere as it collapses in on itself thanks to Mandelson.

Fair point. I haven’t seen #RailNatter much lately, but isn’t it usually you sat at your desk frantically tapping buttons and shouting ‘Hello can anyone hear me?’

This was all motion shots, outside filming, and neatly set the scene for the episode.

Practically an audition tape for Blue Peter.

Noted that yesterday’s edition featured what the television people call a cold open.

Tonight's #Railnatter is one we're really proud of - it's the story of the incredible trans woman who created the railway modelling movement as we know it today. If you've not heard of her - you should have!

Not to be missed - premieres at 8pm at youtu.be/BdZVaCGtXs8?... 📺

Tonight, #Railnatter looks at the Adamuz rail crash in Spain, looks at the most likely mechanism of derailment and why this doesn't really answer many questions at this point.

I'm finding I have to disengage from the news more often now, it's just too scary/depressing.

Had a lovely time last night watching a bit of #railnatter with @garethdennis.uk - which may also have been a bit depressing, but much less scary.

I did a #Railnatter episode today!

In honour of the impending opening of MetroTunnel, it's basically a beginner's guide to Melbourne's trains and trams in video format

A bit of brain-off stuff (that's my style).
Thanks, @garethdennis.uk for the opportunity!

@garethdennis.uk Q for #RailNatter

0 0 0 0

@garethdennis.uk Will there be a reupload of the 30 July 2025 #Railnatter, as the upload didn't work (most of it had a green screen, though the audio worked). I gave up watching, I retried twice and it was still a failed upload.

It's the biggest town in the Highlands and it is being choked by bad transport planning decisions. Is there a better way for Fort William? Can we avoid repeating those mistakes again?

"Oxenholme, Lake District" why isn't this a transport super-hub for the Lake District? There should be direct coaches, car hire etc.

The Caledonia Sleeper was very good. A whisky in the dining car, a compact but lovely bunk bed room, bacon butty breakfast delivered to our door, and a relaxed arrival in Glasgow.
