Its high time I did another #railwaysexplained thread. Open to suggestions on topic; before you do though, check my existing threads at https://mas.to/@25kV/110644720069392183

@25kV Perhaps these might be spun into a thread:
Logistics of overnight trains (both passenger and freight, maybe?)
Anatomy of a train delay
Switches, their function and significance for a network
Power distribution in rail networks
Weird things passengers don't know about rolling stock

@25kV A thread on regenerative braking would be interesting. How does a thing which normally consumes power start feeding power back into the supply without letting out the magic smoke?

@bread80 good suggestion! Thanks

@25kV How SPEEEEEEED and POWER!!!! influence the electrification design/selection process?
How French is HS1?
How modern signalling (like ETCS) is influences electrificaiton?
Something Manx Electric?

@technicalotter thanks! Great suggestions. "How French is HS1?" would be a short thread!

@25kV Would guess as much (very).
The first/last are very related and of personal interest, both for my current academic work, as well as for thought experiments like "why doesn't the Manx electric have modern trams too"
