    Is EMR Weekend First still available?

    This morning they were offering it and didn't mention anything about it not being available to advance standard ticket holders, but then it was a 7 carriage service and it wasn't very busy in 1st (in my carriage anyway). Perhaps it does depend on how busy they are as to who it's offered to.

    Class 701 'Aventra' trains for South Western Railway: progress updates

    I had a trip from Clapham Jct to Waterloo on the return leg. A huge improvement over the current local/metro rolling stock. Nice that the PIS at Clapham Jct annouced the service as an "SWR Arterio service to Waterloo".

    Is the difference between Delay Repay and a Refund clear enough?

    Out of curiosity, what type of ticket is allowing a partial refund?

There's been a few of these on Twitter recently and I'm sure one was an advance single.

    Frighton (Brighton given a spooky temporary name by GTR)

    I fully agree with this, even glancing at Frighton on a screen in a busy station wouldn't jump out to me as Brighton, especially as there's plenty of stations that do have similar names. I assume they didn't change the screens at Victoria to say Frighton though and it was just local stations...

    Nottingham Express Transit - Reliability & Renewals (2023-2024)

    Today trams can't run from Clifton to Nottingham station because of flooding at Wilford Road. While this is outside of their control, the PIS at the stops doesn't reflect this and still shows services as running to the Station. I assume these can't easily be updated to reflect disruption. On...

    Noise from London Underground

    Thanks everyone, some interesting comments - I think it is probably just being used to it unless I consciously notice the noise.

    Noise from London Underground

    Hi everyone, I did a search but couldn't really find an answer to this trivial question - I work at Paddington in an office which is above the District and Circle Lines and also stay in Balham above the Northern Line. In both places you can hear trains every so often and you can feel the...

    GTR cancellations including not operating from Victoria until 10th Jan

    Looks like Covid Isolation is taking its toll at Southern with no services operating from Victoria and Clapham Junction until 10th Jan. Source: https://www.southernrailway.com/coronavirus-information/revised-timetable Does this mean Victoria will essentially be closed or do southeastern run...
