Great piece and well done! 👍

Good morning everyone!

Whilst there is a train driver strike today, just to remind you there is a service still running and we are open for business as usual. Just check times before you travel.

Have a great day whatever you’re doing!

Good morning good people!
Whilst there might be train strikes today & tomorrow, there are services still running and of course we’ll be open as normal so you’ve got somewhere warm to wait whilst lubricating your throat! (That was a long sentence 😬)
Have a great day!

🍸A tale of 2 drinking houses, both in Durham, both called The Waiting Room

🇺🇸On the left is the one in my city in North Carolina; we drank fabulous cocktails there this weekend

🇬🇧On the right is the one on Platform 2 of the railway station in Durham, England (The Waiting Room - Durham)

Major engineering works on railway for next 5 weekends starting tmrw. No trains north/south from Durham - replacement buses running!

London North Eastern Railway are allowing access up to platform 2 so you can still enjoy a pint.
