    Could Wembley Stadium station be improved?

    I had the pleasure of watching the AJ and Dubois match at Wembley and used chiltern to travel, rather than using the met line which is a much further walk away. The platforms are fairly long and when we were leaving there are not many display boards that are visible unless you have very acute...

    When are we going to see the first new piccadilly line train for a test run on the actual line? There is now talks of closing parts of the pic in preparation, but when are they going to test run it?

    Does a Good Attitude Result in a Good Outcome?

    I witnessed a very strange experience on a SWT service where there were 2 passengers, both didn't have valid tickets. One started to get very aggressive and getting into her personal space. The other was very calm and said she was just doing her job and not to take it out on her and started to...

    Norwich to Heathrow

    There is another option and that is to get of at Hayes and Harlington and take the SL9 from there, it limits the number of changes from ealing broadway to acton town.

    Why is there no mention that Elizabeth Line to Heathrow commands a premium?

    I suppose give the deficit that TfL have they don't really want to advertise cheaper fares. As to the refund, I was calm and stated my point, and the operator organised the refund.

    Why is there no mention that Elizabeth Line to Heathrow commands a premium?

    I had a nightmare journey and wanted to clarify what the policy is for the Elizabeth Line for journeys to Heathrow, as I was not aware that between Hayes and Harlington there is a premium of £6.90 to the airport. I found out as my superloop bus terminated at Hayes town and there was no other...

    Mumbai Metro and Overground suburban rail services

    Does anyone have a guide and maps for the Mumbai metro and suburban rail network? I didn't realise that the metro aspects are run by different companies so you physically exit one service, and have to buy another ticket for the second service. Trying to queue in rush hour for the tickets was a...

    How do I get TfL to work with BTP to sort out fare evasion and crime at my local tube station?

    Thank you all so much, that has been very helpful In regards to SynthD's post, these youths do not care about values, they push the gates open with such impunity. They come to deal their drugs, they probably have a concealed weapon. That's the point I'm making. How many more people are going to...

    How do I get TfL to work with BTP to sort out fare evasion and crime at my local tube station?

    I am writing this post out of desperation, in my local area I have seen youths travel in, barge past the gateline (both entry and exit) and ply their "trade" The word has now got about and there are more undesirables being attracted to the area. Its only a matter of time before someone gets...

    My dad is travelling with 3 other freedom pass holders, from Northolt to Gatwick airport. He bought 3 x open single from clapham junction which was £9.xx. I think he made a mistake as from what I understand he can travel until East croydon. The saving is £3 / person / leg. Will Southern...

    Blue crossed loop on piccadilly line end

    Took the piccadilly line and noticed both directions there are blue looped cross stickers on the cab ends. Alperton has been sponsored by Islamic relief on the gateline and was wondering if this is the reason given the appalling situation on both sides in the Middle East?

    Consequences of what can happen if you do not engage in process

    This really depends on what his aspirations are. In the end it will be down to a judge to decide, they won't leave him homeless, or destitute. The judge may ask him to pay something silly like £5 a month, and after 6 years the debt will be written off. If he has no intention of getting credit...
