    Industry system issues

    Ok let’s have a try with this one… The time is 23:24 on 1st July. I have searched MAC-MAN where I know there are advance singles available between these 2 stations as I have bought them before. Currently nothing for Sat and Sun and the first advance I can see is for a late Monday evening...

    Guys, I am trying my best here. I have already agreed to supply you with times / screenshots etc when it happens but I have not seen it so far this week, although I have been rather busy. The tone of some of the responses do sound like I’m being hounded and that what I am saying is a bit...

    I am not doing anything different or quirky. I am not entitled to railcard discounts so the only inputs are start and end destinations and today’s date. This is where I am seeing the issue with advances, even during the OFFPEAK periods where they aren’t showing. And then miraculous I see them...

    Sorry didn’t manage to check the forum today. Will try and carry out your request this week. Im sure you can imagine how frustrating it is to see no advances, then paying full price for a ticket only to see cheaper advances become available again I agree it is bonkers that some advances are...

    It was a same day ticket. Standard tickets only available at lunchtime today then suddenly late afternoon, a whole raft of advances were showing. I know you are doubting me here, but I can only tell you what I am experiencing on occasion. Advance tickets disappear, then return and disappearing...

    Industry system issues

    It has happened so many times over the past few years, I don’t recall the exact journeys hence why I cannot post them. I’d finally had enough this time so decided to post here. Next time it happens I will post straight away but it could prove tricky. I think I will have to post when I get a...

    Industry system issues

    Hi all. Thanks for your input. It was the Monday just gone. Sunday night - no advances showing at all until ~11.30pm when there were suddenly plentiful for each of the hourly trains. Come the morning, full price only which means I had to pay £19.90. If I’d known which train I wanted the night...

    How busy have your trains been?

    Quiet at Leeds station this morning at 9.30am. Sheffield Northern train quite full on arrival - I’d say 3/4 full. Guard came down and looked like he was counting heads. No ticket checks and barriers open at Leeds (rare)

    Industry system issues

    Hi all. I’d like to raise something that has occasionally happened to me but never found it reported elsewhere. When I’m looking for advance train tickets, I am sometimes finding that the journey planners (usually the NR one) are messing me about a bit. Let me give you an example. Yesterday...

    Caledonian Sleeper carriages at Great Yarmouth: Awaiting scrapping?

    I too noticed these today but was confused because one of the old MK1 carriages had the new livery on it?? Was it a test print?

    Last trains which should be later

    Surely it could have just run from Preston not ECS and become a PRE-EDB service instead? Does the oxenholme one now come from PRE as well?

    PIS Display at a station

    I have never seen (or heard) that one before either! They’d be better off putting (r) instead because (x) is def request stop
