    Thameslink Services/Timetable from May 20th 2018

    Working at Finsbury Park and having a meeting near Blackfriars should have been a decent journey with the new timetable. However, as far as I could make out there were no trains southbound in 1300 hour and no trains back in the 1600 hour. Tube to KX it was!

    GTR Great Northern Key Card "not valid" on VTEC?

    Very interesting comments all round. Thank you. I went to Hitchin ticket office to ask about the procedure to swap back and I was told the Key Card was changing to one that looked more like an Oyster card and this new one should be accepted on the VTEC services. I will await news on this.

    GTR Great Northern Key Card "not valid" on VTEC?

    I was perusing the new look Great Northern website when I saw something saying that Key Card season tickets are not valid on VTEC between Kings Cross and Stevenage. Does this mean advancing technology has actually led to a reduction in trains I can use between KX and SVG?

    Class 387 to GN

    Travelled on 0900 HIT-KGX this morning. Noticed the platform screens were showing "1st Class in coach 4" for some services which I assumed to be 387 but nothing stated for my train so I thought "365". However, manual announcement from station staff saying "This is a new train and so first class...

    Excess on Two Together if one can't travel

    Unfortunately my partner cannot accompany me on a forthcoming advance ticket with the Two Together discount. Is it possible to pay an excess of the discount amount applied ahead of travelling or is the ticket completely invalid?

    Buying an Onward gold card ticket in Aberdeen.

    Now at Edinburgh and will try the onboard option. It is a discounted ticket I require and maybe I didn't make myself clear as I was told I could travel on the season ticket which is obvious. Is it still correct that you should be able to buy any valid ticket between two stations at any staffed...

    Buying an Onward gold card ticket in Aberdeen.

    I am travelling on the 0952 ABD to KGX and wanted to buy a Gold Card single for my partner from KGX to HItchin to save visiting the ticket office on arrival at KGX, especially if the train is on the opposite platform. I was told at the Travel Centre they didn't have facilities to issue the...

    Season ticket from the north valid Matlock to London and Welwyn to Kings Cross

    My friend spends weekdays in Welwyn but travels regularly from Matlock to London. Is there any season ticket you could buy that would be valid from Matlock to St. Pancras and Welwyn to Kings Cross? Price not so much of an issue as would be priv rate.

    Kidderminster to Swindon

    Thanks for the confirmation that if I wanted to do it the quick way I would need a single from Wolverhampton to Cheltenham. As for heading to my home town, the football draws me back!

    Kidderminster to Swindon

    I have a single from Kidderminster to Swindon. I will actually now be going from Wolverhampton. Where do I need to buy a ticket to from Wolverhampton to ensure I have a valid ticket through to Swindon?

    St. Albans to Brighton

    Good Morning, My colleague has asked me if he can spend a couple of hours at Kings Cross if he has a single from St. Albans to Brighton? As I would think that changing to the Underground to Victoria would be a valid journey this would be ok. Would I be right? Thanks

    London to Grantham via Nottingham

    Many thanks. My friend has a season ticket and has had conflicting answers when enquiring so your answer comprehensively answers that one! Strangely he has been told it is valid via Stansted Airport.

    SWI to PAD via NBY with Gold Card First supplement

    Thanks for that. I'm not actually travelling out from Paddington, just buying a day return from there as it's only 10p more than the single and will cover me from RDG to NBY. Looks like the answer is I can't buy the supplement at Swindon station as it's outside the area. I've got a 10 min...

    SWI to PAD via NBY with Gold Card First supplement

    I am travelling from Swindon to Paddington today but diverting to Newbury on the way. I intend to buy a gold card day return from PAD to NBY and a single from SWI to RDG as I think this is the cheapest way. Will Swindon ticket office be able to issue the £5 first class supplement available to...
