I'm travelling from Crewe to Glasgow tomorrow morning, I've just been to my local unstaffed station to pick up the tickets. The ticket machine says my tickets have already been collected or partially collected. Now, I might have had a senior moment and collected them already, but I don't think I...

Evening. I do the occasional leisure trips involving my local station (WEM, Shropshire) and Manchester Piccadilly. In the summer the cheapest advance was £6.50 one way. In early October I noticed it had gone up to £8. Just browsing now and seen the same trip is now £9 per trip on a random day...

Morning all. I have a trip coming up soon which requires transferring from Manchester Piccadilly to Manchester Victoria. I've seen there's a bus, possibly the metro or I could also walk. My train arrives into Piccadilly at 09.12 and leaves from Victoria at 09.58. I don't know Manchester at...

Hi I'm currently researching a journey between Glasgow Central and Morecambe via the Cumbrian Coast. I'm only picking up off-peak tickets and I'm really looking for advances. Could anyone confirm whether these are not yet released or sold out already please. Date of travel 6th July, aiming for a...

Am I being unreasonable? I bought an advance ticket from LNER on the 9th April the day of release. Doncaster to Dundee first class for £83. I notice today, the same ticket is £67. I understood that the sooner you bought a ticket the cheaper it would be. I'm pretty annoyed that the price is lower...

Hi all, it’s just come up on my camera memories that two years ago as now I was stopping at the travelodge at Poole with a freedom of the Severn and Solent ticket and I had an absolutely wonderful time, taking trains at will, no planning, just getting on etc. I’m now thinking about planning a...

Hi. I’m planning on travelling from Barnstaple to Wem (Shropshire) on Thursday 26th September. I am particularly looking for new track, I’ve done the usual suspects, back to South Wales up the marches line and up to Brum etc. Does anyone have any other suggestions for reasonably priced...

After visiting Penzance, Lowestoft and Wick this year I thought it’s only fair I go to Arisaig as well. I’m travelling from Shropshire to Euston to catch the Sleeper up to Fort William. Just for the hell of it and to say I’ve done it. From Fort William I’m going out to Mallaig for a couple of...

Hi, I’ve got myself into a bit of a flap. This week I’m travelling from the midlands, to Euston and then onto London Liverpool Street. I havnt been to London for 30 years and now I’m stressing about getting between Euston and Liverpool Street Station. I arrive at Euston at 12.59, my train out of...

Hi I’m making the most of the Virgin seat sale and planning on having a day trip from Crewe to Glasgow. I will need a connecting train, which gets into Crewe at 07.24, my virgin train would leave at 07.32. Would I have enough time to make this connection. I feel I would, would you all...

Hi I’m looking to do the above trip, but whilst planning it I’m getting myself very confused and I wonder if some of you on here could help me please? The first question I have is, why can’t a ranger or rover ticket be bought online? I feel quite nervous about potentially getting on a train...

Hi. I am new to the forum, throughout the last year I’ve started travelling more on the railways, with a couple of trips to Scotland and South Wales under my belt. I am travelling to Penzance soon, and will be having a 40 min wait in Newport to wait for a connecting train. My question is, am I...
