For timings, have a look at http://www.opentraintimes.com/schedule/U53525/2012/01/28 Might have to go into advanced mode, from the settings button in the top-right corner

Cheers for that. Will be on it next week :P Didn't get a great pic, but here we go:

Is the train still early? I was hoping to see it go over the flyover at 1520/1550 - never seen anything up there before!

I put my outboundary travelcard into a London Underground ticket barrier, only for a zones 1-2 travelcard to come out! While I was standing there in confusion, the next person behind put their ticket in and was given my travelcard (worth far more) in return, almost walking off with it! I once...

I thought that by buying a travelcard from a Southern area, most of the money from it goes to Southern as opposed to SWT if I had bought it from one of their stations. Not that it has any effect on validity or anything. Another thought I had was that surely people wanting to go from Epsom to...

I said I had come from Chessington, but she didn't take much notice. Unfortunately I didn't get her name - I should have learnt after forgetting to take the name of a ticket office clerk who refused to sell me a 1-9 travelcard and wouldn't accept rail vouchers! I haven't had much luck with...

Hi, I was wondering if there's anything wrong with buying a Southern only travelcard from Epsom but only using it inside the zones? I ask because I had some grief after arriving at Waterloo from Chessington - they said I was liable for a penalty fare. Before I go around telling them that I...

Hi, I used Raileasy to buy two Chessington North to Douglas economy returns, as this seemed to be the only site that sells it. It gave me reservations for the 0807 from Euston to Liverpool, for last Friday (27/5). It was due in at 1015 to connect with the 1115 ferry. The train arrived late...

Awesome, thanks for that!

Hi! I'm travelling from Guildford to Surbiton with a super off-peak day return, but there is conflicting information on whether there are evening restrictions on the return. Avantix says: By any train except those timed to depart London Terminals, Queenstown Rd or...
