When I was taking my two disabled friends to Sheffield from Leicester to visit the National Videogame Museum (which is excellent and I highly recommend it). I relied on the FAQs. Q. Can I use a Disabled Pass issued outside South Yorkshire? A. English National Concessionary Travel passes issued...

I used to enjoy the EMT Saturday morning First Class Breakfast services down to London. I always thought that they were good value for money paying an additional amount to standard class in return for a really nice breakfast and a nice start to the weekend. I wonder if they made a profit...

BBC News reporting that Leicester City Council have approved plans for the demolition of buildings to allow the redesign of the station entrance, albeit that planning permission has yet to be approved for that yet.

Thank you all for your kind comments on locations to park. I've given him the link to this thread, so he can choose from all of your kind suggestions. Thank you all.

They are staying with relatives in Woking. They want to visit London on their way down there. Are you suggesting that it would be easier just to travel in from Woking?

My nephew, his wife and 3 children (5, 8 & 11) are driving from Leicester to Woking on Wednesday, via M1 until J21A, then M25 off at J11) and they want to take the kids into London to the Natural History Museum. They intend catching a train/tube around 10am with return from Central London around...

The Flixbus coach (clutches pearls) from Manchester to Birmingham can be had for as low as £3.49 (+£1 booking fee).

I can remember buying these at the old Brighton Buses One Stop Shop when it was in Brighton station. I can also remember buying it in the tourist information centre. I could be wrong, but I thought it was issued on a blue ticket way back then. I remember the lady at the tourist information...

Are there any up and coming dates for fares workshops? I would be interested in attending if any are planned, subject to availability and location. Thank you

+2 for Bregenz. I used to pass though a lot when the Bregenzer Festspiele was on and they have the floating stage on Lake Constance for the opera. You can almost touch it at Bregenz station.

I've never found it works on XC or EMT trains, so I dont bother now.

I've always love hearing Nuneaton Trent Valley. It always conjures up images of yesteryear akin to Brief Encounter in my mind. As for Lincoln Central, its still on the destination board for the Leicester to Lincoln train I think.
