Britain's newest railway stations - Kenilworth - on the line between Coventry and Leamington opened on Sunday 10th December 2017, with just one problem ... it actually didn't.
It was meant to though, and by the time we heard it wasn't happening, we'd already paid for our travel, so we thought we'd go anyway. Which turned out to be the snowiest day of the year ...
The Epsiode of Have I Got News For You that we were on is here: www.bbc.co.uk/... (We're about 22 mins in)
News article on delayed opening: www.railnews.c...

Hearing the theme tune after a couple of months is quite nostalgic. It's similar to if you hear a favourite song you've not heard for a while suddenly come on the radio.

That person who struggled to drive away, didn't deserve better. The roof of the car was full of snow. I absolutely hate people who don't clear snow from the roof of their car. It's very dangerous for themselves and other road users not to do that. I will never forget that while going 70 mph on the motorway, I suddenly got a lot of snow on my windscreen and could hardly see. I got away safely, but it was a very scary moment.

I have to admit it is quite funny how rubbish we are at negotiating icy conditions when driving, instead of using our brakes we use the vehicle in front as a method of stopping (ie crashing into it) :P
@stevenjlovelace
@stevenjlovelace 6 лет назад
Michigander here, watching the taxi driver trying to accelerate out of the ice made me cringe.
@OntarioTrafficMan
@OntarioTrafficMan 6 лет назад
Other Canadian here, I'm also somewhat confused about how screwed up British railways apparently get when it snows. I normally think of railways as the one mode of transport that still works fine during a snowstorm (though I try not to brag too much when my colleagues tell me how horrible the drive home was last night).

@Andrew Cowell Done that! Told by Land Rover 'you'll never get up that hill', 'nonsense, step aside my good man!' I said (artistic license) and so in my old tatty rear wheel drive BMW 318 I bought for £400 I then showed everyone how to get up a hill in snow.

Personally I think the Leamington Spa - Nuneaton service should be taken over by Chiltern Railways so they could combine it with one of their other routes (e.g. a through service to London Marylebone, or perhaps a shuttle service to Stratford-upon-Avon with a reversal at Leamington Spa). Especially now, when the service is run by West Midlands Railway and is essentially separate from the rest of its network (WMR's Birmingham services rarely go beyond Birmingham International), it makes little sense to keep it with them.

whaaaat, I didn't even realise Kenilworth Station was even remotely finished. This will be amazing for the town as it'll be less than 10 minutes to Coventry on the train rather than expensive and/or convoluted bus routes into Coventry, the number 11 you waited for takes 45 minutes to get there.

I’m from Cov! My family and girlfriend stayed in that hotel the same night as you! I study at Nexus ICA, a university on Albany Road (5 minute’s walk from the Premier Inn). I had a Christmas show the night before, and had breakfast at the hotel the morning you embarked in this video! If only I’d found your channel sooner, it would’ve been a great surprise to meet you just 2 minutes from my house!
@djedg10

Rewatching the video, there’s three Premier Inns in Coventry, and you stayed at Belgrade Plaza. 14 mins walk from the Premier Inn at Earlsdon Park where I was. Still, close!

Kenilworth station should not ever have closed in the first place. £4 for the bus is an absolute rip off! I bet the bus company will reduce the price now that they have competition from the train.
@MrE1871
@MrE1871 6 лет назад
I live near a station 1.1 miles from the main town centre one. It's £2.40 return on the train but £4 return on the bus from the stop outside so I think it's common for the train to be cheaper.
@KasabianFan44
@KasabianFan44 6 лет назад
Here in the south, buses are considerably cheaper for single journeys, but the return discounts are ridiculously small so for return journeys the train works out to be cheaper.

West Midlands imply the Birmingham area. Keniworth is close to Coventry which is close to Birmingham. England, not Scotland. If you have watched some Queen Elizabeth I movies and television mini series, at one time the Earl of Leicester owned Keniworth castle... The castle is full of history...
