This still from the next Another Station, Another Mile film is making me giggle far more than it probably should do. Caption this, chat:

It's a year since The Greatest Gathering! From 1-3 August 2025 we welcomed thousands of visitors to 507001 at Alstom's works in Derby, as part of this once in a generation railway event. The pit tours and simulator were big hits! Thanks to Team 507 for all their hard work at the show.
Just a heads up, use this link to voice your concerns/opposition to this potential move. Ideally I don't want this at all, but at the very least any AI training features should be optional and opt-out BY DEFAULT. 'Creators MAY be able to opt out of SOME data' is pathetic & nowhere near enough.

Twitch and Amazon are apparently planning to use streams to train Generative AI. Multiple sources tell me it will be announced in the coming months, despite some internal friction against it. Creators may be able to opt out of some training data.

A nearly 25-minute long love letter to a legendary locomotive, penned by two folks with such deep-seated love for the railways & this machine. If you want to know why the Class 37 is so beloved by so many? Watch this. <3
New VIDEO! And we have a mega documentary for you ... Here's the day I spent with the Rail Operations Group, riding in a Class 37 Loco, up the West Coast Mainline! youtu.be/tF2H8vZceo8
No joke - the Ford Mondeo is why I'm a BTCC fan. My granddad owned one in the late 1990s, & the first time I watched BTCC as a kid was at my grandparents' house. I remember seeing a Mondeo on the track, & excitedly yelling 'GRANDDAD YOUR CAR'S RACING ON THE TELLY!' The rest is history. 💙
🔥 Fans of Super Touring cars will soon get a couple of new toys in @raceroom.com: The Ford Mondeo and Peugeot 406 have been confirmed to be added! 📰Read more: www.overtake.gg/news/raceroo...
The phrase 'travelling at maximum ginger efficiency' made me think of @helloitskolo.com right away. 😅
Me? Running? Absolutely not. I’m simply travelling at maximum ginger efficiency because I heard the treat cupboard open.
Good idea.

People on Bluesky sigh and talk about The Discourse as if it were something required of them instead of something they opt to partake in, day in and day out. You really don't have to. Post about your favorite cheese
I do enjoy the Commonwealth Games, but they've been seriously struggling in recent times, and are running a massively scaled back Games this year. Still, I was looking forward to it. Until I found out it's all on TNT. Where far less people will be able to watch it. Because that makes sense 🙃
I'll be honest, one of the highlights of any football World Cup or Euros, is the BBC closing montage. I've watched this one over and over the last few days. It helps that I love the song used, but the editing is spectacular. Gives me chills. www.youtube.com/watch?v=20Fi...

After the most wonderful day out yesterday at the London Transport Museum Depot in Acton, I've been enjoying a much-needed peaceful morning today. As for what books to read over a cuppa tea? Well after yesterday, I've got quite a few new ones to choose from...
Signal boosting and also tagging onto this. I've been wanting to relearn Japanese and maybe study some other languages for ages, but I'm not touching Slopalingo with a ten-foot barge pole at this point.
Gang, are there any language learning apps or websites any more that dont use any AI?
When the 2005 pack first came out for AMS2, I loved it, and I specifically said that the *only* thing that could've made it even more perfect...was the Saleen S7R. Reiza really said, 'oh, you JUST wanted the Saleen? Buddy we can do WAY better than that.' I am SO ready. <3
🔥 Saleen, Lister, TVR, Spyker, Panoz... More mid-2000s endurance cars are coming AMS2's way, as Reiza confirmed a bunch of new cars for the next update - which we're "on the verge of", according to the studio 👀 📰 Read more: www.overtake.gg/news/ams2-se...
So far in the Rd of 32, almost every underdog team* has been eliminated in the most depressing, heartbreaking & often controversial ways possible. Clearly, this is all building up to an epic Cape Verde upset this evening. Or maybe it's just the level of disappointment this tournament deserves.
Told you. And I bet 99% of folks don't even know this is happening. Because if they did, they'd be furious and fighting to make sure these didn't happen.
There's already one being built in Blyth (Northumberland) and they're already seeking planning approval for a 2nd. So yes, it's already happening in the UK unfortunately.🫠
Having seen all sorts of posts across social media about AI data centers springing up across America, I was wondering when they'd start to take root here. GTFO. Nobody wants these disgusting, noisy, polluting, water draining slop factories. Except tech billionaires, of course. c.org/L6JXj9scq5

God every bloody Ai disclosure on steam is always like "UwU we just used a little plagiarism machine, we're a small team, AND ITS OUR BIRTHDAY, that means its ok" And like actually stfu, solo devs and small teams have been making banger games for DECADES. Literal skill issue.
Heads up - we'll be going LIVE on www.twitch.tv/heyitsajomega at 6pm UK time this evening for more Tea & Trains! Where are we going? Back to the eighties, on @trainsimworld.com's brand new route - Crewe-Preston '86! (Don't worry, we *should* be done by the time the footie starts...)
It's Le Mans weekend. Legit one of my favourite weekends of the entire year. I'm comfy on the sofa. Drinks and snacks are in the fridge. Pizza for dinner. And as has been tradition for the last 16 years, I've got @radiolemans.bsky.social guiding me through. Bliss. I love this race. 💖
I realised recently that I've been an @oswreview.bsky.social fan for over TEN YEARS. So much in my life has changed in that time. Almost everything. & yet, all this time, they've been the constant. As if to prove the point, they drop this last night, & ofc it's an all-timer episode. Legends 💖
