Re: World Record to be reset!
Should any of the above happen, I think it will be reset... however, I don't actually see any of them happening - no time within the next 10 years anyway. The most likely thing to happen that will cause a reset in my opinion will be when the District line stops going to Olympia completely.
Attempts: 2 (17h38m, 238 stations) (unknown, 200 stations); Completions: 0; GWR: 0; PBs: 0.

Re: World Record to be reset!
I'd expect a reset on several if not all of those. I could see Ken O services being totally cut in the next couple of years.
Not sure what happens if Ken O is only in service for a couple of exhibitions a year, would we have a situation like (I think) New York where they can only attempt the GWR when there's a race on at the race course?

Kenny O still retains a (severely limited) weekday service, which is detailed in the leaflet about the timetable change:Iain wrote:I'd expect a reset on several if not all of those. I could see Ken O services being totally cut in the next couple of years.

Re: World Record to be reset!
Yeah I'd seen that - plus the explanation which was the low number of passengers and the alternative transport available. I can see that they might review it in a year and if the numbers are still low then they might well cut the remaining trains
