Have some friends travelling in a few weeks and looking for some advice: Rye - Gatwick on 15th October, arriving at 1630 at the latest Gatwick - Rye on 21st travelling after 1730 Aware there are replacement buses on the 21st affecting the Marshlink via Rye but ultimately looking for the best...

Trying to work out permitted routes for a route for a trip from Folkestone - Witham I'm planning but having no luck with the journey planner. Would rather take the train from Liverpool Street, instead of faffing around changing at Stratford, plus my aunt wants to meet me in Central London so...

Anyone able to shed any light as to why the Victoria - Headcorn/Minster services are calling at Kent House this Sunday? RTT suggests that it's not to pick/up set down staff or enable anything to pass, the only thing I can think of is that it's to ferry people to/from the coast?? Appears to start...

I may have to go to Kings College (Denmark Hill) on Thursday and would be looking to go into Central London afterwards. Now the cheapest ticket I can find is the Super Off Peak Day Return to London Terminals (£14.90 with 16-25 Railcard) but my query is, would it be valid for a Break of Journey...

Hi, wondering if anyone would be able to help me. I travelled from Eastbourne - Folkestone Central on 8th May 2016 and was delayed by both Southern and Southeastern. Booked departure time from Eastbourne was 1754 and I should have arrived at Folkestone Central at 1930, however due to the...

Currently stuck at Ashford, zero communication about what's going on except the standard 'we are sorry' automated announcements. Anyone know any more about what's happened at Otford? RTT has lost track of the last two Charing Cross - Ashford services at Otford Junction.

Had a trip out on Sunday to (hopefully) cover a bit of rarely used track and travel some of the Metro routes, looking for a 456 along the way! Apologies for lack of unit ID, really only take down what I see as different or odd formations for the service in question. Original plan was to take...

Don't know if this has been posted anywhere yet but one of these units is now sat outside the Hitachi Depot.

Hit a suicide. Currently on the offending service (0753 Folkestone Central - St Pancras). Thoughts with the driver, nasty business...train has been kept well informed, thanks to the guard if he's on here...bleak times for everyone so not suprised, some people find it difficult to cope and if...

Going into London tomorrow morning and decided to pick up my ticket, a £13.65 Super Off - Peak Day Return, in advance. I'm sure these tickets used to have destination "London Charing Cross" on them but I've been issued with "London Terminals." I know HS1 is shut until late afternoon tomorrow so...

I'd been putting off this trip for ages but being the last weekend of the Eastbourne Summer Special, I decided to get one of these Southern Daysave tickets. Apologies in advance for the gaps in traction, think tiredness was to blame for the most part. My day started quite early, was out of the...

I was on my way back from Brighton yesterday and decided I wanted to head into Croydon before going home. I broke my journey at Redhill and did the following: Redhill - Dorking Deepdene - Dorking Main - Epsom - Sutton - West Croydon returning East Croydon - Redhill, resuming my journey back...

Should be on 1230 Victoria - Gatwick at present.

Thinking about heading out in about an hour or so, at £14 return the fare is quite cheap but I'm having some problems with the route. The easiest route would be straight to Tonbridge, Redhill and then Deepdene but connections are either tight or give a wait of over half an hour at Tonbridge...

Just wondering what routes are permitted when using an Off - Peak Day Return with YP, for £17.65. Southeastern's booking engine suggests these two: Folkestone - Sevenoaks - Peckham Rye - West Croydon Folkestone - Tonbridge - Norwood Junction - West Croydon I know I could just use East Croydon...

Hi all! I'm going to Birmingham tomorrow and am looking for some ticket advice. The cheapest ticket I've been able to find is this: Super Off Peak Return valid via: High Wycombe (£36.30 with YP Railcard) The booking engine doesn't show any morning peak restrictions for this ticket, is this...

My day started on a chilly morning at Penge West, where the destination indicator didn't seem to think that there was a 0757 to Tattenham Corner. I asked a member of staff about the train and he didn't seem to know if it was running or not but did suggest that the boards sometimes omit certain...

With the order placed for what appears to be 26 5-carriage Electrostar units, the 455's are presumably going to be freed up for possible transfer onto non-Metro routes. Two destinations that spring to mind, one having already been mentioned, are Horsham and Tonbridge. Both have a common route...

(This post was posted in reply to another thread about 1st class, and has been split from that topic as it wasn't applicable to that topic) I was travelling a few months ago and noticed a certain station's LDB advising customers that standard class tickets were valid in first.
