    Trainline showing only first class fares

    This still hasn't been fixed. I wonder how many people have bought two single tickets for this journey because Trainline aren't selling the cheaper return? 1752086636 Trainline still haven't fixed this problem, over a week after they said they were looking into it. Is there some kind of...

    Trainline showing only first class fares

    Looks like it. I tried several different sites yesterday (including the RailUK one), and Trainline was the only site not offering the £22.80 ticket. They've replied to my message to say they're looking into it.

    Trainline showing only first class fares

    I'm only making the journey because I have the voucher. I thought maybe it was a database glitch that would be fixed overnight, but it's the same today.

    Trainline showing only first class fares

    I did. The same thing happens. But you have to scroll down to the return fares section to see just the £127 first class tickets. They have plenty of advance tickets, but I want this specific flexible ticket.

    Trainline showing only first class fares

    I don't usually use Trainline, but I have a voucher so I went on their website to buy some Carlisle to Kendal return tickets. The off peak return on this route should cost £22.80, but the only return fare Trainline would give me was £127 for first class, saying standard is not available. It said...

    Stagecoach Lake District by Bus 2024

    The 77C and UB1 ran last summer, there was also a UB2 and UB3. They weren't included in last year's lake district booklet, they didn't start until later in the year. Last year's 77C was just a weekends only shuttle between Cockermouth and Buttermere from May to the end of August, and came after...

    Expiring RTV - DfT have now announced a 6 month extension

    Thanks. The value is actually £23.75, and I've got another one for around £28 that expires next month. What's the process for getting a refund, can I just go to my local station, buy a ticket (I was thinking of Carlisle to Leeds anytime short return for £52.50), and then ask for an immediate...

    Expiring RTV - DfT have now announced a 6 month extension

    I've got a rail travel voucher for £24 that's due to expire before the end of the month. I've had to cancel several trips this year so haven't been able to use it. I contacted Avanti West Coast to ask if it could be extended, and they said no. Not happy with them at all. It's ridiculous that a...

    Before the season started, the Premier League said VAR would only be used in the four scenarios I posted above. They've made a statement today saying that under IFAB protocol VAR could have intervened, but chose not to. The Premier League has not been following IFAB's protocol in other areas...

    VAR in the Premier League is only allowed to intervene in four different scenarios. Red cards, mistaken identity, penalties and goals. The first three are irrelevant for this incident. And the check they do for goals is after a goal has been awarded, to see if there has been an infringement...

    I saw a tweet about it by a Guardian journalist earlier. Does that count?

    Trump’s obsession with hydroxychloroquine as a treatment for Covid-19

    Have you tried Home Bargains? They always used to be cheaper than supermarkets, they were 59p the last time I bought some, which was last year.

    Coronavirus.

    There have been people hospitalised in the UK without any underlying conditions. But they've recovered because the hospitals have been able to cope, so far. Underlying conditions doesn't mean someone's at death's door. Underlying conditions can include things like diabetes, asthma etc, where...

    Coronavirus.

    If we do nothing, half a million is a conservative estimate. The experts have predicted that up to 80% of the population couild get it. More than 1% who get it die, and it will be higher once the hospitals are overwhelmed. It could be a lot more than half a million. Did you read the post I was...
