A sole booking site would be a very bad idea in my view. Just imagine a single GBR site, it would probably be clunky, starved of investment etc. It is the third party retailers that have led innovation in ticket retailing over the last 20+ years so let them get on with it. Different websites...

There isn't a Zone 1 Travelcard. The only day travelcards sold are: Anytime Zones 1-4 £16.60 Anytime Zones 1-6 £23.60 Off Peak Zones 1-6 £16.60 Daily caps still exist for smaller combinations of zones. This is all part of TfL's strategy to encourage people to switch to contactless/Oyster.

I'd buy a Super Off Peak Return from Paddington to Cardiff which costs £68.75 with your railcard. This allows you to catch any train from Paddington between 10:01 and 15:01 and after 19:01 on the Friday. On the Sunday you can use it on any train to return. I would book the ticket a few days...

Chiltern to/from Wembley Stadium station is a good shout on an event day. Not as crowded as Wembley Park. Take a train to Marylebone, walk to Baker Street (takes 5 minutes) then Met/Circle/H&C to Kings Cross St Pancras, where you can pick up your luggage before continuing to Elstree &...

The bank takes the risk if your card is lost or stolen, so long as you haven't acted recklessly.

But at least there are four places at the station where you can buy a coffee!

Some LNER TVMs at Kings Cross have recently been put out of order. I wonder if this is because they are waiting for their chip & pin devices to be updated? Seems strange that LNER have dropped the ball on getting the chip & pin devices updated.

I'd do it the same was as making a claim with a combination of tickets. I can't remember if TPE has the option to upload more than one ticketf or a claim, if they do then use that. If they don't then I'd upload one picture of the ticket and seatfrog upgreae barcode, add the prices together...

TPE are incorrect, but it's normally best to include the Seatfrog upgrade as part of the original delay repay claim rather than trying to do it separately.

Euston LU to Elstree & Borehamwood on contactless is £7.00 single St Pancras to Elstree & Borehamwood with contactless is £5.20 single The maximum daily cap is £16.30 which is the most you'll pay, regardless of how many journeys you make in zones 1-6.

Essex Road. Especially the utterly decrepit sprial staircase. One of my favourite stations too!

We don’t need to have this debate again in this thread. That isn’t the issue here. As has been mentioned several times paper tickets are not infallible.

With the London Thameslink ticket you can go to Kings Cross, than walk to St Pancras and catch a Thameslink train to Farringdon. I’ve done that many times when I’ve got a LNER train from SVG to KGX.

This sort of thing is normally dealt with through the Single Justice Procedure Notice system. If you plead guilty then you don't have to go to the court in person. You simply indicate that you're going to pead guilty on the form, give any mitigation and you'll be notified of the outcome and...

Fast line headway is three minutes. As we said upthread the additional stops can be scheduled but it is very tight. It won't take much to go wrong (which let's face it, happens all too frequently on Thameslink) and then everything collapses like a pack of cards.

If you look at the following trains through Finsbury Park then you see: Peterborough - Horsham 8 minutes late (this is the train that made the additional stops) Peterborough - Kings Cross on time (this went ahead of the Peterborough - Horsham train) Welwyn Garden City to Moorgate - 3 minutes...

So EMR contact out lost property to the Excess Baggage company at St Pancras. Excess Baggage company at St Pancras is open 7-days a week from 07:00 until 23:00 but they only deal with lost property on weekdays. This seems ridiculous.

Leave the 07:53 non-stop alone! Seriously, it probably only works because of the overtaking opportunities, the non-stop can overtake the Thameslink train at WGC which means they can essentially swap paths. This won't work if you make the 07:53 the train that calls at WGC. As I said upthread...

Thameslink has it in the front compartment. Before someone corrects me, there are some TL services (eg Sutton loop) where it is declassified in the front.

Currently the 07:47 from Stevenage is full and standing upon arrival at Stevenage. It's the same with the 08:17. You've then got to add the Stevenage passengers, then the Knebworth ones and then the WGC ones so this train will be very full. A packed 12-car train calling at an 8-car platform...
