Before the X84, there were buses every 15 mins Leeds to Otley (780 Leeds to Otley via Holt Park, 784 Leeds to Skipton, 782 Leeds to Otley via Pool, 784 Leeds to Ilkley). Evenings and Sundays were 784 every 30 mins - one Leeds to Skipton, the other Leeds to Ilkley. At one point a 783 replaced the...

Henley-on-Thames trains are often overcrowded when students are commuting to college. The standard line from GWR is there are no spare carriages available anywhere to strengthen the 2 car 165s. Given the amount of new trains which have been added to the network over the past decade, are there...

Basically if a 15 year old child is legitimately travelling on a Child ticket but the ticket checker doesn’t believe they’re only 15, what can and/or what should happen if they have no ID?

Why doesn’t Ravensthorpe station also have platforms for the Wakefield line?

It’s very poor that these posters advertising TfL Rail are still up at Heathrow on the platform
