Had the “comedic” automatic announcement of the guy going “brrrrrrrr it’s so cold out here!” etc.. on Southeastern quite a few times yesterday while waiting extended periods of time for different trains. Hilarious. Let it Snow was also played over the tannoy at some point towards the start of...

Wow what a comprehensive response. Thank you for taking the time to put this together. In reality it would be Bromley South that would be my only frequent alternative destination, which does appear to be valid; getting through the gate line may still present a challenge though as you...

Hi all Just a quick question - am I right in thinking that a season ticket from Chatham to Stratford International route Plus High Speed also has validity to central London via the traditional main lines (as that would be the "non high speed" route)? Sorry - I'm sure this subject has been...

Had something very similar to this as a rail replacement bus on Southeastern once. At 6' 3" the only seats I could physically fit my legs in to and sit down were those in the front row due to the incredibly tight seat pitch. The staff refused to accept it was an issue and said it was because...

The 145 bus is an issue and the suggestion for the "146" would certainly seem to be worthy of consideration. Regarding 12 car trains I'm sure these used to stop at Rochester in the past with selective door opening so I'm not sure if I see the big advantage of this? On a different note I...

The TATT is also a receipt - IF the details of the withdrawn ticket or pass are completed on the reverse of it. No, penalty fare notices / TATTs / receipts do not require a signature. Yes, the penalty fare notice will be endorsed with the time and date of issue.

Only routing info is "+HLYHD IRISHF CIV" where the + is the Maltese cross. Also states "BOOKEDTRAINONLY" under validity but I assume this is only trains with reservations? Thanks

Advance Cheers Jimmy

Afternoon all I have Sailrail tickets booked for Tuesday from Bromley South to Dublin and have been given a printed itinerary of Bromley South to Victoria, tube to Euston then train to Holyhead. Can anyone please confirm: 1. If there is a requirement to keep to trains on the itinerary...

This is my thinking - that the upgrade ticket need only be for the "high speed" section of the route. The barrier staff mentioned are at Stratford International (the barriers seem programmed to reject upgrade tickets, presumably so that both the original ticket and upgrade can be checked). I...

Just out of interest... I have a Chatham to London Terminals gold card - although my commute is generally Rochester to London. When use HS1 to either Stratford or St Pancras I will generally get an upgrade from the TVM at Rochester - clearly this will show an origin of Rochester not Chatham...
