Welcome to the official faberoony90 channel.
In partnership with EWS Transport & Parker on Paws.
Home to a wide range of transport content from across the United Kingdom.
This channel is NOT intended to be family friendly. I cannot predict what may be said within videos.
Throughout our time on the website, we have inspired many people to start their own channels and upload similar content.
This may include many of your own favourite channels.
This channel was opened in 2011, with the first upload in Summer 2012.
You can see how far we’ve come through quality, and regularity of uploads.
A wide variety of websites and apps are used behind the scenes to obtain travel information used in our videos.
For Rail: RealTimeTrains, OpenTrainTimes, Signalmaps, and apps such as Fasteroute, RailChecker and NexTrain.
For Bus or Tram based content we use BusTimes or the apps provided by the operators.

Hello veggies.
OG observers will likely remember, the ancient traffic light series that came with the channel's introduction.
The final mellor based system is about to leave Beevor Street as part of local upgrade works.
David Mellor designed these in 1965, with this set probably installed around 1985.
Most signal heads on this junction, have been replaced over time, with only two road traffic signals, and 2 pedestrian signals remaining as is.
Because of its age this junction tends to operate under a lower power mode now.. which isn't as safe as it once was.
Whilst this wasn't recorded, I thought to note it anyway. Over the summer, these will be removed and replaced by Colas traffic signals instead.

It's the Lincolnshire Show!
Well, I'm not going.
The 555 also doesn't need covering as it's a dead straight route down Burton Road, operated on two days a year.
In other news:
Signalling problems send regional services up the spout.
Up to hour long delays via Swinderby as the semaphore signalling has once again gone bork.
Also, diverted buses via Hykeham due to a gas works block at Doddington Road LC

Hello!
Happy pride month.
Recently I've taken a small break from actively recording, and got on with generalised transport photography instead.
Sort of following in the steps of @K1eranjames_Trains but not quite. Their shots are unreal though.
Possibly coming up but not promised:
Lincoln Route 9 via Hykeham Station.
Fabe's Travels to either somewhere old, or new but predictable.
In other news, GTR has recently become a DfT operator which is then handing Thameslink passengers a reduced summer service.
Whilst continuing to hand SWR a worse service.
Moral of the story? Don't put all of your eggs in one basket, you'll crack them.

That was predicted, 6 days in advance.
Last Saturday night, I quoted "A return to Doncaster is coming up, solo and likely to be disrupted".
This Friday: 3 active disruption notices. 2 for overhead wire damage, 1 for signalling problems.
The East Coast Mainline is the most plagued network in the country for constant disruption.
As a common theme, there is no travel diary for this... Although shit always hits the fan when I don't provide one.

Another one? Absolutely.
A once rarity, has now occurred 3 times in 3 visits.
Keep the crossing clear. It's in black, white, and yellow lines.

A bunch more shots from a very clearly open Cross Lane Level Crossing this morning.
All of the barricades have been removed, enabling a full through route once more.
I also had a look at the relief road, and it'll be very useful whilst the life expired equipment here and at Swinderby Road fails at least once a week.

5th May it "closed"... No it didn't!
The road is now fully open following our previous visit.
Don't believe everything you read.
Video soon ✌🏼
