Before I answer that, just have a careful look at what tractakid actually asked about LM. I even edited the quote for clarification just in case there was a query (but I didn't change the answer!)tangy wrote:I am still trying to work out what operator you are travelling with....
Of those with OHLE and a London Terminal it can't be C2C, LE, FCC, VT or FGW (or HEX as PAD has more diesel trains than electric). Which leaves LM but tractakid has already asked about them....
Are you on the SET high speed line?

Ok, so you ARE travelling with LM, just not on a train terminating at TRI, MKC or NMP

This is a Central line train to "Woodford via Hainault"- sadly, not no more!

Re: Which train service am I on? #5
Oh of course, I hadn't asked about direction! *doh*.
I really should have said 'started or terminated at'.
I was convinced it had to be a HS1 train.

Re: Which train service am I on? #5
