    Best Luggage for Trains

    When I was travelling by trains with just enough stuff for a weekend I got this which has wheels and straps. It meant that if I wasn't in a rush or in a crowded place I could wheel it along but for dashing about and getting on and off the train I could put it on my back. It fitted on most...

    Level crossing/foot crossing stations

    Fortunately I was on the 'right' side so if the train was in the station and needed to cross the crossing next, hence keeping the barrier down I was ok. Likewise going the other way unless a train is coming the way, the barrier would open as soon as train is in the station. I had to dash across...

    Ticket office closed, no working ticket machines

    I once picked up my tickets just after booking them, which was months before travel. Gets to a few days before travel and I forget that I have already collected them so go into a panic before finally coming to the conclusion that I must have collected them!

    Telegraph article on proposals to ban split tickets

    I would go for Morley near Leeds. The station is over a mile from town centre and is down a complete dead end road.
