Thank you for the replies everyone. I've just seen that Cross Country do weekend first class upgrades, so this may be worth investigating to boost my boyfriend points :D

Hello, I have a first class ticket from where I live to Bristol, but for a portion of that journey my girlfriend will be travelling with me and she only has a standard ticket. Will I be yelled at if I travel in standard with her until new street? I have to get off there and get another...

Oh cool, thanks. I'm bringing the basic spanner and allen keys and stuff down anyway as it's the first time bringing my bike to my new place in London, but the pump will definitely come in handy :D

Awesome! Thanks once again.

Hello all I'm travelling from Bristol to London tomorrow and plan on taking my folded down road bike (not a folding bike, just a broken down full size bike). I talked to a FGW employee at London and was told they have a maximum wheel size on folded or broken down bikes, which mine exceeds...

Awesome! Thanks for replying.

Hello, I apologise if this is a stupid question, but I'm new to these things so be nice :D Wanting to get some photos of an XC HST from a local bridge (has pretty good views), checking the diagrams I see that the Plymouth to Glasgow Central service leaving at 1224 on Tuesdays to Thursdays...

I used to make regular trips from Bristol to Swindon during the heatwave. Standing by the open window was amazing :wink:

Hi Stephen, Any chance you'd be willing to share your collection with me? I've only recently got into the simulator and most of the sites which contained routes have shut down :-(

I will certainly miss HST 's legroom. Being 6'3" my knees are literally round my ears in Voyagers.
