  • The Night Train®

    #444 - "Hang around, it might get better" (25th Oct 2026)

    Oct 27, 20261h 59m

    There was a chance that we couldn’t get into the studio for this show but the radio gods were smiling. 1st show for a while in GMT so you’d think we’d be fresh and ready to rock with that extra hour of sleep. Tune in to...

  • The Night Train®

    #443 - A (slightly) Different Format (18th Oct 2026)

    Oct 20, 20261h 59m

    This might be the longest we’ve been since doing a theme show. 2 months since we did a small rekkids show. And those don’t really count as a theme show in our opinion. So, here’s another somewhat standard show for...

  • The Night Train®

    #442 - Show in a Hurry (11th Oct 2026)

    Oct 12, 20262 hour

    This show was made in a hurry. Can’t remember if we mention that on the air or not. It was put together in about half an hour with about another 15 minutes of tinkering to iron out the (big) mistakes. We think it turned...

  • The Night Train®

    #441 - Belated Relevancy (4th Oct 2026)

    Oct 6, 20261h 59m

    Alright folks? It’s a Tuesday. Bake Off is on the telly so this is the perfect time to upload a new show. We managed to get into the studio after the shenanigans last week which means, BRAND NEW SHOW. Sorta. It’s...

  • The Night Train®

    #440 - Square and Interesting (20th Sept 2026)

    Sep 23, 20262 hour

    You know when this show would have been good to listen to? Yesterday. When it was unseasonably sunny in Sheffield. As it goes, it’s grey and a bit drizzly today. But as we say, we like to play music for almost any...

    The Secret Handshake with Louise T | LWSTD-FM

    Sep 15, 20261 hour

    Evenin’ all. We didn’t do a show last night but we couldn’t leave you without something to tide you over until we’re next on the airwaves. We’ve pinched a show that we love and that we think you’ll love as well. It’s by...

    #439 - "Okay, let's try that again, but this time good" (6th Sept 2026)

    Sep 9, 20262h 6m

    This was a new experience for us. Which is impressive as we’re 439 shows into this nonsense. We attempted to do this show a couple of weeks ago but studio gremlins got in the way. So instead of putting it down to a bad...

    #439 - "Should song titles in full caps be shouted?" (16th August 2026)

    Aug 19, 20261h 59m

    Feels weird uploading this while it’s light. Usually this is more of a nocturnal activity. Much like the show. Sometimes we wonder “should we be more uniform with our uploads?”. It’s not going to happen. Well, it could...

    #437 Small Records Vol 11. - Steve Spins Small Things (9th August 2026)

    Aug 11, 20262h 1m

    Step right up for show number four hundred and thirty seven. Another 7 inch special! Steve did this one on his own as he didn’t want to leave you without a show to soundtrack the next batch of hot weather that’s in the...

  • The Night Train®

    #436 - It Doesn't Pay To Try (2nd August 2026)

    Aug 5, 20261h 59m

    Another week, another show where one/both presenters complain(s) about being tired. You’d think by now they’d know how to be fully rested for the show. This show is a deep one. Starts heavy and gets heavier. Enjoy...

  • The Night Train®

    #435 - It's All About Steve (19th July 2026)

    Jul 20, 20262h 1m

    We all know the show is a vanity project but this week it’s gone next level… it’s all about STEVE! He played records from his birthday. Some from his party, some he got as presents and some he purchased with birthday...

  • The Night Train®

    #434 - "Up in one! Up in one!" (12th July 2026)

    Jul 14, 20262h 4m

    We’re off to a gig tonight so there isn’t a witty, long, descriptive blurb for Sunday’s show. The main points are: Studio was hot Tunes were mainly old A smattering of new tunes We’ve been listening to A History of Rock...

  • The Night Train®

    #433 - Let's go to town to see what we can find (28th June 2026)

    Jul 2, 20261h 59m

    Back in the old studio, for possibly the last time? We’re not sure. Will it matter to you lot? Probably not. All you want is 2 hours of quality radio which you’ve got (eventually). You’ll be pleased/sad* to know there’s...

  • The Night Train®

    #432 Standard format - 1 bed = this show (14th June 2026)

    Jun 16, 20262h 2m

    Evenin’ all. Or good mornin’. Depending on when you read this. Or if you read it at all. This week’s show had some beats, some guitars, some music from Jamaica and a fair bit of new music. We’ve got our fingers on the...

  • The Night Train®

    #431 - Blood & Fire (31st May 2026)

    Jun 3, 20262 hour

    Sunday’s show was a doozy. Hour one was the standard stuff but hour two is where it really gets going. We did a tribute (of sorts) to Steve Barrow, who sadly passed recently by playing an hour of stuff we heard on his...

  • The Night Train®

    #430 - "Mostly Bob” (24th May 2026)

    May 26, 20262h 1m

    It’s night time in The Big City. Rain isn’t falling as it’s an unseasonal heatwave. A late night radio show host writes a hackneyed blurb for an upload… Sunday’s show is here at long last.. where we celebrated Bob...

  • The Night Train®

    #429 "Mostly archival” (17th May 2026)

    May 18, 20262h 2m

    The weeks, they roll ‘round quickly. It seems only yesterday that we were playing animal records yet here we are again… doing an upload and trying to work out how to make it sound enticing enough to listen to...

    #428 She said, “Where ya been?” I said, “No place special” (10th May 2026)

    May 13, 20262h 10m

    The best thing about this show is for the first time in 3 weeks we haven’t had to think about animal songs. It’s a standard show with the usual stuff. Gig reviews, stuff we’ve heard on other shows, general bad mixes and...

  • The Night Train®

    #427 Small Records Vol 10. - Dancing Animals (5th May 2026)

    May 4, 20261h 59m

    Well, this is possibly our most ambitious theme show ever! Three themes in one. Dancing, animals and dancing animals. We've just counted up and annoyingly, it's 44 songs. 45 would have been nice as it's a show on all...

  • The Night Train®

    #426 "The Animals Went In Two By Two" (26th Apr 2025)

    Apr 28, 20261h 59m

    So, it’s an animals on wax special. Songs with animals in the title or band name. I know how to party. It’s rough and ready, not fixed anything and if you listened live, you got a bonus 3 songs. I was going to edit them...
