    National Express Coaches Discussion

    Just had a message on Facebook. They are aware there is an issue and are trying to get it fixed. 1791805183 why not go the whole hog and buy an HGV and just fit seats inside it! I bet an HGV so fitted would be a lot cheaper than a coach.

    No idea but their phone number has a long wait time and they refer you back to the website. Very odd!

    National Express Coaches Discussion

    There ate good grounds to note that monopolies can allow consumers to be abused. However in transport a monopoly may allow a service to be offered that is only viable because the operator takes all the revenue (traffic available). If the revenue is split then neither service may be viable to the...

    National Express Coaches Discussion

    Contravision as it is called is the handiwork of the devil. When new it does a good job of simulating a medium tint on the windows though allowing passengers to look out but not allow outsiders to look in. It uses how the human eye functions to achieve this. However as contravision ages the...

    SWR Short-fare on Trainline e-ticket - Gave brother's name in panic (Same address) - Need settlement advice

    Arguably a question of semantics and a very minor point, but I would use the word “Regretably” rather than the word “unfortunately”. Having said that many of the TOCs appear to issue an offer of an out of court settlement providing engagement is made and there are no high level aggravating...

    URGENT please advise

    I would suggest that there is a possibility that there may be a letter on its way to you as you were the person evading the fare and you are an adult. If nothing is received with a few weeks then you would almost certainly be in the clear as it would be unlikely that the whole matter isn't...

    URGENT please advise

    Who was the letter addressed to? Who does the letter specify as being the person to EYTB? (You use the phrase "we can earn it back")

    National Express Coaches Discussion

    I think that is mainly true but some do factor in some sort of time versus money saving benefit. There are some very cheap advance rail fares which I think for many tip in favour of going by rail as for only a little more money the journey is a lot quicker. One of Nexps usps was that they...

    National Express Coaches Discussion

    I am not excited about the prospect of NExp closing down but there is a thought of "if they do it will serve them right" because they have become incredibly inept pver the past few years. Admittedly my experience of them is limited however as someone who does travel between Poole / Bournemouth...

    Consultation? Outcome pre determined. I forecast National Express coaches ceasing operations within 18 months.

    Forcing a booking engine to show only route and time restricted fare valid times.

    Thanks to all. I have managed to solve this but it took a bit of work and I think would confuse the uninitiated.

    Forcing a booking engine to show only route and time restricted fare valid times.

    I was using the Trainsplit (non Railforum) version. I have worked out the train I want to go on (and is route and fare restriction valid) but what I need to be able to find / create is a timetable of the trains coming back that are both route and fare restriction valid because I am not sure...

    Forcing a booking engine to show only route and time restricted fare valid times.

    I am struggling to compel booking engines to display only train times that are valid for fares that are both route and time restricted. The journey is Branksome > Milton Keynes Route Kensington Olympia Super Off Peak Return (BD) and Off Peak Return (UW) Railcard: Senior Citizen I know to add...
