Yes you can do that but when travelling to Sevenoaks the train you are on would have to stop at Knockholt

I doubt if EMT will be too worried. They will get their cut of the revenue regardless of how many passengers are on board the service.

I have been waiting for advance fares to be released for East Coast on the 30 October. They are supposed to be 12 weeks in advance but we are now down to less than 9 weeks but still nothing. Anybody know what they have planned for that day. I guess some farely substantial engineering works...

Not quite The platform despatch give the white light The conductor then gives the buzz buzz

As travelcards are a zonal product they are usually used in combination with a boundary ticket so 19(a) is the one that normally applies. Do you have a specific problem in mind ?

No because in the case we are talking about the ticket office was open at the destination station.

Yes but in the family railcard case there is loss to the railway. The price of two adult travelling together will be more than the price of two adult and one child with the F & F railcard so clearly the railway has lost money.

Its no different to leaving a supermarket walking past the tills without paying. You have used a service and should at least make some attempt to pay for it.

I dont see how they will be able to do that as you must buy two tickets.

If will be valid to use anywhere in the country. However you will only be able to buy one if your live in the trial area.

Ive heard there will shortly be a trial of a new railcard called two together. I cant be sure of the full details but I beleieve it will work as follows:- It will be for two people who will have to travel together. They will be able to purchase tickets at 33% discount. There will be...

I had a trip down Clapham Junction sidings once. I heard a train stopping in the platform ran up the stairs opened door sat down . Was in the smoker so not too surprised to find no one in that section. Move off and stop. Next thing driver comes through. What you doing here mate! Good old...

I can see it is not allowed but is there anything to prevent it happening if the driver forgets. Mistakes can happen and as drivers are not usually sacked for a spad I really can see them being sacked for forgetting which unit was attached at the rear.

Interesting about the 168 / 165 combo. If the lead unit was a 168 is there anything to stop the driver taking it up to 100 with the 165 on the back ?

Computers would probably see a fixed obstruction on the track just as well as a driver would. The latest technology at Level Crossings will shortly include obstruction detection which can put the signals at danger if there is an obstruction on the track. Its probably like pilotless planes...

Looking at the fares for this journey there are no less than 5 different tickets available for 5 different routes. The route london not underground is priced ay 2.60 (with my priv thats 65p :)) . I guess the route would be CLJ to Waterloo - then Waterloo East to New Cross and New Cross to...

Whenever I get a driver getting too big for his boots telling me now essential he is for the railway I tell them GOO (Guard only operated) is the future. Usually shuts them up :twisted:

Why not ask the TOC if they will change the restriction to allow travel on the 0928.

Depends on which type of priv you have. If you are ex BR staff then yes. If you are a TOC new entrant then no.

Do you get free eurostar tickets. We have to pay for ours. Still good value though
