I successfully claimed for 100% refund from TFW this year when the train was too crowded to board & I abandoned the journey

Thanks for the replys , I will submit an appeal . I think I was "too" honest . If I had put Porthmadog as the start point it might have been easier!

TFW have just replied to my delay repay claim & state the tickets were not valid for the journey. Attached are the tickets in question , can anyone advise if TFW is right or not. The journey was the final part of a circular tour using a return Leominster - Shrewsbury and the Ffestiniog Round...

It does surprise me that interlock can be achieved with an object just under 30mm in the door.

Can anyone tell me why its called a "Network Railcard" Area ? I had never heard of it , living in Hereford, and it meant nothing until I picked it up on this Forum?

That is my understanding as well

A lot of TFW lines ,especially Heart of Wales line , have no ticketing facilities at stations especially at request stops , you can always pay on the train in these circumstances & even where there are ticketing facilities the staff don't seem to bother & issue tickets on board without...

Slight different scenario . Last year I purchased a ticket to travel from Hereford to Okehampton , Day Return E Ticket purchased through Trainsplit . I arrived at Hereford & train shown as on time so scanned through the barrier, but by the time I had gone over the footbridge, it was showing...

I went down to West Somerset Railway last week by Train from Hereford. Asked for my card on 2 occasions, once on the way down & once on the way back. That was on Cross Country

Thanks both. I wondered if it was a suspension relaxing issue, wasn't sure if it would get tighter or perhaps release and give the wrong impression.

Can anyone explain the reasoning behind this notice on the side of this wagon. Thanks

I went on The Ffestiniog last Saturday using the TFW Ffestiniog Round Robin ticket . I previously had emailed the railway to check they still accepted the TFW ticket, they said yes, but advised that I ring to book a seat to be sure of availability. I didn't do this as I was unsure when or...

Call me old fashioned, but an email as important as that, should clearly state to which case it refers, without need to reference it to any previous correspondence

Yesterday (10/09/22) I was delayed on a journey taking the 14:06 from Minffordd to Leominster, changing at Shrewsbury . The TFW train from Shrewsbury arrived 17 mins late at Leominster. When entering the details on TFW online claim system it is not showing the 14:06 , only 13:40 & 15:40 trains...

B,ham International to Pwllheli last Friday ( 19/08/22) was a 2 car unit, full and standing when it arrived at Newtown . Due at 12:04 and left at 12:52 . I aborted my Journey as it was too full for me to travel.

I believe a conditional Discharge means one is Guilty, either found Guilty or pleaded Guilty .

A similar situation occurs on trains on the Cambrian Coast which usually have Aberystwyth as the destination at Shrewsbury , although half of the train often heads for Pwllheli at Machynlleth . The station announcements at Shrewsbury advise which portion is applicable . I have known the...

I nearly got caught out by such terms as " Off Peak" tickets etc.. I purchased an Off peak return , out on day one , return the following day at about 15:00 hrs . Due to a change in circumstances I needed to travel back at more like 09:00 . I did a quick online check on when off peak...
