    Freedom Pass Inspection Curiosity Question

    The last two times I’ve had to show a valid ticket to TFL staff onboard a train, none of them requested to see the photo on my freedom pass. Separately I’ve also walked through barriers (after tapping) and RPI staff did not ask me to show the photo. Similarly for the three times I had tickets...

    Travelling with a disabled persons.

    I imagine the situation at Kings Cross will only worsen when Virgin start international travel there.

    Veterans Railcard eligibility

    It seems ambiguous to me and the clause can be a standalone phrase or indeed applied to only that part.

    S Stock feels dated despite age

    Their air cooling systems seem pretty poor this year compared to the Elizabeth line. Do they need maintenance?

    TfL issues 69,000 penalty fares as fare evasion crackdown intensifies

    London Buses Discussion

    Broken again. An absolute joke. Does no one on this thread have any knowledge of what on earth is going wrong with the bus stop in Pinner?

    Report of collision Bedford (Elstow) - 19/06/26

    I take it the full report will take another year to conduct and release?

    Disabled Bus Pass, are drivers more lenient when they don’t scan

    Yeah, I was a bit confused regarding what was meant by the ”companion part of disabled passes” too. The ECNTS generally does not have one as far as I know, so any that did would be an additional benefit offered by the particular council that issued it.

    It’s been fixed after about at least half a year or more.

    Introducing RailUK Tickets - support the forum when booking your rail tickets!

    Since the child disabled freedom pass is listed, I wonder whether it’s worth listing the discretionary disabled freedom pass as well? It appears to confer the same benefits as a regular freedom pass, with the exception it does not permit free bus travel outside of London...

    RMT strikes re: 4 day week

    There seems to be strikes regularly for various reasons. Once these latest rounds are resolved, there will inevitably be more strikes for other railway staff concerning whatever matters they raise. For a lot of people (outside the railway industry), strikes are just par the course now.
