When we went from gatwick in may the ques for passport control were massive it took 2 hours from landing. We went to st pancras and found it really easy and a hell of a lot cheaper than going via Victoria. I would suggest staying over at the hampton really cheap we paid £59 inc breakfast...

Euston is the only terminal served by lm Even if it said liverpool lime street you could do that Their does not seem to be any reason to not put on the ticket Liverpool Lime street to london euston.

Thanks Jake I was still curious regarding why it said London Terminals. When the tickets are marked london midland trains only. So what other station could I travel too. The same with Liverpool stations I would have to use merseyrail unless it means south parkway

Thanks for the replies and explanations Ticket is QSV ONLINE ONLY SVR

Ok I got my tickets from Liverpool ->euston (off peak return) +FF card. For £52.00. Here are my questions: 1. The tickets dont say liverpool lime street to london euston. They say Liverpool Stations & london terminals, why? What is the relevance of this. 2. I had a look on br fares and...

You are right it is only the return leg that needs to be not fixed to one service. Yes I looked into that that we are traveling down the day before are flight. There is an advance fare that costs £17 for all in F&F card liverpool-stafford-watford-clapham-gatwick. and the same price coming...

Thanks bb21 that was my understanding FCC website does not make it clear that some routes dont offer you off peak travel.

Thanks for the welcome Tony I did have a read of the posting rules however the fares dont go up to the 25th may so I thought it was irrelevant. Thanks again and a pleasure to be here Coley
