Hello, I'm thinking of moving to Maidenhead and am doing some research on season ticket options. I work shifts just near to Oxford Circus so I think that a saving can be made on the Maidenhead - Z1-6 season ticket which is currently £3496. Here is my plan - I want to check it's allowed...

Afternoon, I'm considering going to the GCR steam gala on Friday 25th January before getting the sleeper to Aviemore to try a bit of skiing. Just wondering what the best ticket combination to get would be? I don't have any railcards and I already have a ticket for the sleeper. I want to...

Hello, I'm thinking of doing a day trip to Folkestone tomorrow for a ride on the RH&DR but I'm finding the fares a bit confusing - journey planners keep forcing me to use HS1 which I don't really want to because of the games. What is the first train I can get from London Bridge with a...

Hello, I've just moved to London and will be travelling from Streatham Hill - Oxford Circus for work more or less daily. Can I just buy an annual Zone 1-3 travelcard on my Oyster and still get a Gold card or do I need to buy a paper Streatham Hill - Z123 ticket to get it? To sum up...

Hoping to go for a trip on the Far North Line this Saturday. Do you know if it's possible to change from the down to up service at 1706/1707? Can you use the crossing whilst an Up train is sat in the platform? I'll ask the guard obviously - but just wondering if anyone had done this in the past...

Morning, Just caught the 0445 from Twyford to Paddington and was surprised to see the ticket machine offering to sell me a Off-Peak Day Return for £12.50 - I was expecting to have to pay peak rates. The ticket man on board didn't seem to mind although he only very briefly glanced at my...

I'm travelling from Borth - Porthmadog on Tuesday and have a couple of questions: 1. Can I double back between Dovey Junction and Machynlleth to avoid waiting in the middle of nowhere for over an hour. I can't find a specific easement (but I haven't looked that hard). 2. I'm pretty sure...

Quite a significant day in South Oxfordshire on 31st July as we team up with Didcot Railway Centre for a 08 day! This is the first time we've teamed up with our larger neighbours down the road - hopefully it won't be the last either!:p

On the front page of The Henley Standard a few weeks ago there was an article proposing the shortening of the Henley branch by quarter of a mile to improve access to the River and Rowing Museum and Mill Meadows http://www.henleystandard.co.uk/news/news.php?tabp=y&id=869311 When this was last...

We thought GWR 175 was a great excuse to get one of our favourite locos GWR Pannier 6430 in for another period of hire from the Llangollen (she visited last year for a weekend). This time she'll be paired up with our 3 Mk1 coaches - 2 of which have been recently repainted. She'll be running...
