The Inter City Railway Society
(ICRS) is one of the UK's leading railway societies. We cater for UK and
European railway enthusiasts. We are well known for our quality publications
and also produce our own monthly 40-page glossy magazine
Tracks with news and articles on railway topics.
ICRS Publications are brought to you by an
established and dedicated team of ICRS Members. Our aim is to bring you, the
enthusiast, the best possible publications with the most up to date and accurate
information available.
This website complements the
activities of the society and provides our Members with an exclusive area where
they can view and download (in full colour) back-issues of our excellent
Tracks magazine and enquire on the Ultimate Sighting File database.
For all our visitors, this web site provides a useful resource of news and
information (both UK and European),
features,
reports and observations
on the current railway scene and an extensive
Photo Gallery. You'll also find details of our current
publications;
an established range of titles that cater for today's enthusiast.
We have come a long way since our founding in 1973
and we hope that you will enjoy your visit and consider
joining us.
Bank Holiday weekend diversions and specials
57315 still in full Arriva Trains Wales livery arrives at Banbury with
the Pretendolino set complete with DVT 82126 on the back and 57308
Tin Tin dead on the rear. The train seen here is 1Z05 London Euston
to Nuneaton, which was diverted via the Chiltern line due to a
engineering blockade on the West Coast. The call at Banbury was to pick
up a route conductor for the journey towards Nuneaton. (Photo:

May. It is seen here at Quainton Road station, the site of the
Buckinghamshire Railway Centre and formerly the Met and Great Central
Joint main line via Aylesbury to London Marylebone. 121034 was providing
an hourly shuttle service between Aylesbury and Quainton Road, a service
that only operates twice a year - on the May and August Bank Holidays. (Photo:

Thank you to all
those who have pre-ordered our UK Pocket Book 2012. This was due
to be available on 1st March but a number of factors have
combined to delay this and rather than rush it to get it out on
time we decided to take a little longer and deliver a better
book. The book has now gone to the printers and should be
available in the 3rd week of March. We apologise for any
inconvenience this may cause you and hope that you understand
we'd rather put the book out a little late than rush it to get
it out on time but to a lower standard. If you have any
questions or comments please feel free to email
publications@icrs.org.uk.
