I am getting confused by all these times. Is 22:29 a typo? If not, while what you have said that you arrived before 22:29 might not be wrong, I am not sure on its significance when you previously said you arrived around 21:08. 1785698524 You could request CCTV. While it might not prove what...

National Rail Disruption video: https://vimeo.com/1211602446?fl=pl&fe=cm 1784619750 This happened just hours after a lineside fire at Newton Abbot disrupted both mainline and Paignton services yesterday evening

it now seems to be stopping for 10 minutes at each of Newton Abbot; Dawlish Warren and Exeter St Thomas which I do not think was the case with the previous schedule. I cannot see them leaving it parked up in Platform 5 at Exeter St Davids all day

It seems a very slow journey. Do we know if the unit has a special speed restriction applied

My understanding is 2 x 150 units will be released from the Okehampton branch when it goes over to 175 running allowing these 150's to be used for the Cornish Metro, but when I recently asked in the 175 thread if the 175's had been cleared for Okehampton, apparently not yet. I think they are...

Are they cleared for Barnstaple/Okehampton/Axminster

I think the risk of now contacting Thameslink is close to zero, due to the time that has past and if you need to do so to put your mind at rest or to confirm the outcome with your employer in my opinion it is now worth any tiny risk that might still be involved. Perhaps first of all try...

I do not claim to be an expert on Penalty Fares, but from what RPI said in post 25:

Cheltenham to Birmingham would almost certainly have been on Crosscountry which are not part of the penalty fares scheme

That is disappointing as the experts here are of the opinion that it was issued incorrectly, but having been through all 3 appears I am not sure there is much else you can do. You could still refuse to pay it but I do not think we should be advising that as it could put you in a worse position...

I am pleased you had a settlement you are happy with. Thank you for letting us know the outcome.

Looking at the timeline in post 8 that @WesternLancer provided from a similar case it was not far off 3 months between being stopped and receiving the first letter. Christmas/New Year fell into that time which may have added a delay, but as others have said probably best to wait for now.

It could happen if for example the paperwork was lost in the post, but normally there would be more than once comunication as we would expect GWR to write to you to ask you for you side of the story and court papers would also need to be served, so that would be a separate comunication, so...

I am not aware we have seen delays from GWR, buy I do not read every thread, so there may have been 1743956467 Do you have access to both addresses to be able to access post from either? You have already contacted them a few times and they have said it can take up to 20 weeks, so I would...

It will be interesting to see what other forum members think, but having been let through the barriers at Bedford after seeking assistance would that imply the op was given permission to travel?
