A couple of months ago I asked one of the train staff on the Cambrian Line if anyone had ever presented a promise to pay , and he said never had one presented . The promise to pay option only shows up at the end of the select and buy sequence which to me seems counter intuative as I had been...

Apparantly I screamed & shouted when I was about 4 yrs old and first taken to Snow Hill Station and a safety valve blew off , back in 1951. I have no recollection of it and had no problem later on with steam.

A couple of years ago I was travelling to Hereford changing at Newport. I was on a GWR train that ran late meaning I would miss the TFW connection at Newport . In the event the TFW train was cancelled . This really meant the late running of the GWR train, was irrelewant but I was advised to...

I am still a retired member of a Union just for this sort of reason, free Legal advise .

My local bus company serving the routes I sometime use dropped out of the capping scheme a couple of years ago. So no change here just north of Hereford
