    Australia / New Zealand - Any upcoming changes?

    You can buy on the day, but also I suppose they can sell out. I vaguely recall a coach set aside for those without reservations, but can't recall if that was for people using (the equivalent of!) an Oyster card, I can't remember what the Melbourne version is called! I seem to recall that if...

    Australia: Stark warning about "Journey Beyond" train operator

    I'm not sure whether remaining on the train (rather than undertaking an off-train experience) would have been permitted or not, in that instance. In some of them (e.g disembarking at Marla on the Indian Pacific), remaining on board is definitely permitted. In others (e.g the dwell at Adelaide...

    I've travelled on both the Indian Pacific (September 2023) & Ghan (September 2024) throughout. In both cases in Gold class.

    What has been your longest rail replacement taxi?

    I was once offered a Bournemouth to Keighley taxi, after delays around Bournemouth meant I'd no chance of getting home. I turned that down in favour of the train into London. Once in London I was offered a Waterloo to Keighley taxi.... I turned *that* down in favour of the 2333 Kings Cross to...

    Major Incident at Huntingdon (01/11/2025)

    The service involved was 1Y90. There are good reasons why the line has been blocked (albeit I won't go into specifics here, but some of the gist of it is within some of the posts so far in this thread).
