Thanks. I put in a claim saying I was 30+ minutes late.
The time I cycled past was approximately 35 minutes late.
Fairest I could do. Thanks for all replies.
Yes, I was on that train, and they offered the connection as you say, for people wanting to get to Foregate Street. They did say you might not make the connection especially if travelling with luggage (but in reality I probably would have, despite being only 5 minutes), in which case get a later...
I got a train last night from London Paddington, intending to get off at Worcester Foregate Street.
It arrived into Worcester Shrub Hill approximately 25 minutes late and terminated there. It was cancelled between Shrub Hill and Foregate Street.
How much delay repay do I get?
Would it be...
I will be in London on Saturday 22nd and using Contactless (Zone 4 cap).
I have my bicycle with me.
To get from Euston to Welling, which might be the best way?
1. From Euston, I cycle to Charing Cross (takes 10 minutes), then get the train to Welling (trains seem hourly only, this would have...
I want to travel from Euston to Welling, then Woolwich Arsenal, then end up in Paddington.
Welling and Woolwich are in Zone 4.
I want to get the direct train from Welling to Woolwich, without breaking my journey. It starts and ends in Zone 4, but travels into Zones 5 and 6 on its route.
If I...
I'm arriving into London at Marylebone station.
I have my bike with me.
My destination is Hastings. My return ticket includes transfer by London Underground.
With my bike, I think the obvious thing to do is get the Underground from Edgware Road to Victoria and then a train from Victoria to...
I'm in Merseyside for two days. I can't decide whether to get a Saveaway or a Daysaver ticket.
Are the main differences betwwen the two the fact that the Saveaway can be used additionaly on the ferry, buses and the railway line to St Helens (and also is slightly more expensive)?
Also, both...
I'll be buying the off-peak Return at £49.30 from Worcester Foregate Street to Highbridge & Burnham, departing Monday, returning Friday.
I would like to visit Bath Spa for an hour or two on (preferably) the outward journey.
If I put "via Bath Spa", no valid ticket is available as of course it...
What happens in this scenario, please...
I am travelling from Swindon to Brighton. I have two advance purchase tickets - Swindon to London Paddington and also London Victoria to Brighton.
I allow 90 minutes from my arrival into Paddington until my departure from Victoria, planning to walk (or...
But either way, I have a valid ticket, every point along the way, don't I? The second I invalidate my advance ticket by alighting at Mossley Hill, I am in posession of a valid ticket, the Saveaway, providing it is the correct time of day.
If at South Parkway, providing the Saveaway ticket is valid at that time of day, wouldn't the ticket machine just assume I boarded elsewhere, eg Hunts Cross? From the machine's viewpoint I would be inserting a valid ticket.
In this scenario I would have bought it from a Merseyrail travel shop in person, a few weeks before.

In this snenario, it would be not to avoid a higher fare. The advance ticket to either Lime Street or Mossley Hill is the same price.
I was thinking in this snenario I had maybe had...
This is just a thought experiment...
I'm just curious. What would happen if...
I buy an advance purchase ticket from Birmingham to Liverpool Lime Street. Also, I buy a Merseyrail Saveaway ticket, valid for that day.
On the journey, I decide it would be better for me to alight at Mossley Hill...
Thanks. Which ticket should I buy out of the two, or does it make absolutely no difference?

Yes but it is more than double the price of the tickets I quoted
