    First Group day rover (Priv) query

    P/T Ticket Examiner - GWR (Bristol)

    Hi I've been invited for an assessment day next week for this role, and I'd be grateful if anyone can give me an idea what to expect on the day. I've inferred (from scanning previous threads) the shift pattern is likely to be 5 x 4hr shifts - is that correct? And last (more generally) - it's...

    GWR Advance tickets - refundable due to Covid?

    Took advantage of the recent GWR sale to book 2 x advance tickets Bristol Temple Meads -> Paddington for this 16.30 this Friday (Two Together Railcard). My partner has had Covid this week, so we won't travel unless she tests negative on Thursday and Friday. Is there still any provision for...

    Possible disruption 19th September?

    Possible disruption 19th September?

    I'd like to get back from Three Bridges / Gatwick to Bristol this eve - I can get the North Downs to Reading, but does anyone know what the situation at Reading is like for heading further west? I've seen ticket acceptance is in place for Southern, but I'm assuming it doesn't stretch to...
