Thanks - very interesting. Out of interest where does one find these easements?

Perhaps a stupid question but in a couple of weeks I will be travelling from Reading to Henley-on-Thames, then walking to Marlow and (the same day) getting the train back to Reading from Marlow. Would an off peak day return Reading to Henley on Thames cover the Marlow portion. It says it is...

I haven't been through the whole process to complete a purchase yet but, for example, the first great western app enables me to purchase an individual ticket with the two together discount applied.

I couldn't find an obvious answer to this question in the T&Cs or FAQs but think I have worked it out. If my partner and I were to travel to Peterborough (for example) I would not need to buy a ticket reading (where we live) to london as I have an annual season ticket. Therefore usually her...

Is there any kind of ball park estimate as to when the issues on the line between Maidenhead and Twyford are likely to be resolved (or is it wholly dependant on the weather)?

I need to do some relatively unusual journeys in a few weeks and wonder if the learned people on here could help with ticketing validity for the following journey. I have a reading to london travelcard (without underground). 1) reading to brentford (via feltham) 2) brentford to reading...

Perhaps defective is inaccurate - would "not fit for purpose" be more accurate? The Oyster card does not have this problem (ie the magnet in phones breaking it) and I'm sure I can't be the only person this happens to regularly!

I have had an annual gold card for travel between reading and London paddington for about five years now - every time I have received said ticket I have managed to break it within a matter of days (I have three devices, a phone, a work phone and an iPod, one of which ends up in the same pocket...

Hi all, I have been reading this forum for a few months and am aware that there are plenty of knowledgeable people on here - I now have a ticketing query and have more faith in finding someone who knows the answer here than at a ticket office! I have a reading stations to London terminals...
