    Future of the Moorgate Route

    Recently travelled on the Moorgate route up to Hornsey for the first time and noted how dated both the mainly unstaffed stations and rolling stock feel. Post Thameslink route upgrade and new stock, it seems a strong candidate for joining London Overground's network with 378s.

    Lost Property Cash at Ashford Int

    On southeastern I recently lost my bag but luckily got it back from Lost Property at Ashford Int. There was some loose cash in the bag too which SE took and left a Money Found form inside the bag but it's not clear from the form how to go about getting it back. At the bottom it says "to be sent...

    London Bridge Oyster

    I've just put in a refund claim online as I notice I've been hit with a no-touch out charge despite doing just so to complete my journey between Farringdon and London Bridge. The only complication is that the exit I touched out at was the nearest barrier (at the footbridge towards Dominion...

    Europa Spezial

    Are both portions of the journey (the ICE part and Belgian IC) time specific or is this just the ICE part? I'm planning to do a journey from Frankfurt-Brussels-Kortrijk with a lunch-break in Brussels.

    Eurostar and competition

    Out of interest what are people's views here on Eurostar facing direct competition at some point in the future like DB? Do they have room for improvement or are they offering a good enough service as it is? Will the competition last or fail to gain customers; perhaps with lower pricing...

    RSH - 1 Day Travelcard

    Is it just me or is Red Spotted Hanky failing to show tickets with a 1 day Tavelcard (inc) today? From Sevenoaks to London all I see are London Terminals return tickets but without the Travelcard option. In the end I had to forego getting points on my purchase :-x and buy from the ticket office...

    Sevenoaks - St Pancras

    I'm looking to find the best deal here with split ticketing if necessary? Travel time is 09:29 (Peak on SE) but by the time I reach Orpington it's Off Peak inside TFL. My preferred route is not via LU but on Thameslink. A single ticket for this seems to be £11. It seems around 40-50% cheaper...

    Oyster Photocard

    I have two expired student photocards from 2009 and 2010. Back when I applied there was a fee to cover admin. Though they can still be used without a discount; I no longer need them as I've a regular Oyster card now. Technically they're still TFL property so can I get back any deposit fee like...

    Oyster on National Rail Usage

    It would be interesting to know how much the usage of Oyster has gone up since full introduction of Oyster PayG on National Rail in London nearly six months in. I only ask as it seems to me that there's still alot of paper ticket users around who maybe don't know they could user Oyster. Even...

    Breaking journey at Reading

    I'm investigating which ticket(s) to buy for my journey tomorrow. I plan to go from London to Henley On Thames, then walk to Reading from there and return to London. I've looked up online and seen that going via Reading is valid so would I be okay to get a London to Henley return marked VIA...

    ECML Tilt

    GNER had a proposal early on to purchase Pendolinos which never happened whilst many of the Virgin Super Voyagers are diagrammed for the busy East Coast services rather than the West Coast (where they can tilt!). With much of the East Coast line permitting speeds of between 100-125mph, how...

    Irish Sea HSS

    Stena Line’s HSS 1500 Stena Discovery terminated services to Hoek Van Holland and departed for lay up in Belfast on the afternoon of 23 January. It now joins the other two HSS 1500 vessels; Stena Voyager (Belfast-Stranraer) and Stena Explorer (Dun Laoghaire-Holyhead) on the Irish Sea. It’s...
