I have just been asked to complete an online survey 'to shape the future of the railcard' Worryingly almost all the questions related to what ticket I would use for journeys before 9.30am if the railcard was not valid then. It looks as if there are plans to extend the morning restriction, making...

The paths are for this weekend (January 24/25) not last weekend.

But they were not running any mainline services and roads in the area were clear by the afternoon so this is not an acceptable reason

West Midland announced this morning 'We are working closely with Network Rail to resume services as soon as possible, once it is safe to do so.' There has been no service all day between Leamington and Coventry, leaving Kenilworth unserved, despite the fact that Cross Country have operated over...

Although National Rail were warning of disruption on Friday it was not until Sunday afternoon that Avanti announced tickets could be used on Sunday -far too late to be any use!

Some operators conscientiously register all their parking places, Lewis Rhydlewis who operate 23 coaches and minibuses on school contracts in Cardiganshire have 7 locations registered with the traffic commissioners for one vehicle and one for two vehicles. These are farms and private houses over...

According to my booking confirmation there were only 3 standard class booked in the formation, with 6 firsts. Doesn't bode well for future railtours if WCR have let down Pathfinder in the same way they let down their own passengers in the summer by advertising the Jacobite when they had no...

It had been known for weeks that the 40 was to be replaced by 2x37 so that isn't the reason. I don't think they would have left it so late if it was ticket sales, as the the cost of cancellation at this stage will be high, including contacting everyone by post. I was also booked on it and the...

I caught the 05.54 from Milford Haven on a Saturday last June and was the only passenger as far as Haverfordwest. What amazed me was that three teenagers got off the inward working from Carmarthen. I wondered why they wanted to be in Milford so early.

It has just arrived at Mallaig with 45407, so must be a problem with TRUST 1691581964 There were 12 WCR staff in hi vis on board

Please don't make condescending comments without checking different sources This is from the Daily Telegraph ; On arrival, we were told our room was unavailable, but they’d managed to find us an identical one. It turned out not to be a double bed or even twins, but two super-narrow bunks, one...

But she says this was not the room she booked, so I assume she would have seen and booked the double. The bunks look unsuitable for an 83 year old and surely Caledonian Sleeper should have taken this into consideration before moving her

I travelled on the Breezer yesterday and the timetable has changed. Unfortunately only the driver seems to know the new times, as the old times were still on the website, with nothing on their social media. Clearly the times were unrealistic -we took 40 minutes with very few stops. Fortunately I...

I have had the opposite experience at Leamington, The TVM won't sell me a ticket to Walsall without specifying times and refusing some trains because it thinks reservations are compulsory, while the clerk is happy to sell the ticket without any questions. She even joked 'We're not so nosey'

Lady of Legend was back in service yesterday.
