Unfortunately I do not have information on the status of the strike, however I found the list of services guaranteed to run using this link (use google translate instead of the EN option on the site) - https://www.trenitalia.com/it/informazioni/treni_garantiti_incasodisciopero.html

Could it be a possibility of CS offering shared berths with other travellers? Post-COVID and all that now, they might begin giving people that option to lower prices somewhat?

Great thread first of all, it has been very helpful in finding out what to expect in the recruitment stages. I haven’t been able to find out much about the AART (perception) test. I have a copy of the how2become AART test and have found it surprisingly difficult! For those who have utilised the...

Unfortunately the ‘Assessment’ status doesn’t mean you will be attending an assessment day, but rather an online numerical and verbal reasoning test with SHL. By now, you should have received a link for this, but if you haven’t by now it’s most likely you will need to reapply should it be...

While browsing for tickets to Manchester, I wondered why they didn’t do TPE advance tickets from Huddersfield. Not the same case from Leeds, however. £6.40 advance compared to £11.75 anytime from Huddersfield with a F&F railcard (1 adult, 1 child travelling 18/08 I’m not all that familiar with...

I'm not quite sure if this is correct, but I think the Newtown Goods line that ran to Huddersfield which branched off from a junction near Mirfield is one of those lines

Would anyone be able to find out what services 185101 is working tomorrow please, also on Saturday if it isn't too far in advance? Cheers

There appears to be a lilac tint to the seat frame, but it's hardly noticeable

That'll be the VTEC website, though those tickets aren't actually available now which is a tad confusing.

That wasn't the case last year, or the year before - £19.45 advance tickets each journey

Thank you for the explanation, I knew something wasn't right

We always book our tickets as far in advance as possible for the best prices. I saw that VTEC was doing 24 week advance tickets, so we went ahead and booked the tickets from HUD to SKG, at the usual price of £19.45. Upon booking the return journey, there were only 3 journeys available. So, we...

If this change goes ahead, doesn't this mean that there will be no passenger rail connection between Wakefield Kirkgate and Westgate, or am I missing something? If so, this will cause inconveniences.

I'd say that TLC is a rather good operator (in the Huddersfield area at least). From my experiences they have been reliable, clean, have decent drivers and cheap fares.
