So presumably, if XC did refuse to honour this obligation, I would have to stick with travelling with XC as far as Edinburgh, and then hope that I arrived at Edinburgh in time to allow me to use NRCoT 28.2 for a ScotRail or LNER service between Edinburgh and Aberdeen?

So, by the sounds of it, the best way to get XC to honour the Article 16 obligation if I want to switch TOC before Edinburgh would be to try contacting them on social media? I did experience such a cancellation when travelling recently, and XC didn't automatically arrange ticket acceptance with...

CrossCountry only run 1 train per day between England and Aberdeen (the 09:27 starting from Plymouth). So, if you are booked on this train with an advance single to Aberdeen, and the train is wholely or partly cancelled, what do you do? My understanding is that normally if your booked train is...

I notice that Crosscountry appear to be running no direct trains between Plymouth and Edinburgh today, tomorrow or Monday. Have these been removed from the timetable at the last minute, as I thought previously there were some on the schedule for these days? Certainly there usually are.

Hi everyone, I am looking to travel by train in a couple of days time and I am posting on here in case anyone has any advice on how to make the journey any cheaper. I am travelling from Exeter St Davids to Belle Vue, travelling there on Friday (20th) and returning on Saturday (21st). I can't...

Where would be the best place to purchase one from? Does this forum's site sell them, or would it be the Eurostar website?

Is Paddington to St Pancras 21 minutes to allow again, or is it a bit less?

Would a CIV ticket be a lot more expensive?

I'm using separate tickets for the Exeter to Waterloo leg and the St Pancras to Brussels leg, and I was planning on using contactless for the tube part in the middle. Does that make a difference?

On Wednesday 4th September, I am travelling to Brussels. The plan is to travel from Exeter to London Waterloo, then catch a tube service to St Pancras International for the Eurostar. How much time do I need to allow between arriving in Waterloo and catching my Eurostar? I know if I was changing...

Yes it was two separate claims that I made, I didn't attempt to combine into a return.

Thanks I've submitted an appeal.

On the 18th of February I travelled from Exeter to Heathrow. Later in the day I travelled back again. Both journeys I made using advance singles with the same booking reference. I used paper tickets for the journey. The outward journey was delayed by half an hour and the return part was...

Many of the GWR services from Exeter to Paddington are still being cancelled though.

Another thing notable about this data is that it includes journeys where the origin and destination are the same. I am not sure how this is possible. For example, there are 35,109 recorded journeys from Reading to Reading, despite there being no fare for this on brfares.
