Many thanks to everyone for your kind and much appreciated help. Got to the funeral with time to spare and even managed a brief tour of Winchester. Got there and back ok. But found it exhausting. Train was full on the Leicester to Birmingham route. And on the return journey people were...

Many thanks very helpful.

Thanks for all your replies. Delay repay? As I shall quite possibly be arriving an hour late can I apply for any compensation? And will it be for all of the 4 tickets to get to Winchester or only one of them? Thanks again 1771366457 Can I do that now? And why GWR it's a cross country train. thanks

Many thanks. But I think I may just go on the later train. Which would have been 09:50 from Leicester arriving in Winchester at 13;27 or something like that. I shall however leave Leicester a bit earlier at 09;15 so that I have plenty of time for the connection at Birmingham. Sub question. I...

Thanks again. But I am minded to get the 11:03 from Birmingham. As for Leicester to Birmingham I intend to catch the earlier train at 9:15 so that I have plenty of time to get around New St station. 1771365322 But even if the guard did allow it I would presumably still be stopped at the barrier...

many thanks again. I may take a chance on the later train 11:03 from Birmingham to Winchester. Which gives me half an hour to get to the funeral. Kind regards

Many thanks. How do I cancel the off peak day return? Can I do it with the guard. Or must I go to the ticket office in Leicester. Though I may go on the 09:50 from LEicester instead. Which doesn't cause any ticket problems. As the 11:03 from Birmingham to Winchester gets in 13:26

Thank you Jfollows that's helpful info. 1771362263 Many thanks S. So if I go on the earlier train I can ask for the last bit of the journey to have some of it reduced in price. Best wishes

Can anyone please help. I am travelling from Leicester to Winchester tomorrow for a funeral. Weds 18 Feb 2026. But the train I was booked on has been cancelled. 08:50 from Leicester via Birmingham. The train to Birmingham seems ok but the 10:03 from Birmingham to Winchester leg of the journey is...

Taking the 10:32 from Leicester today, destination Kew Bridge. Hope all goes well. Hope trains not affected by the rain?

Many thanks. That's an interesting suggestion.

I realised I have been making the journey about 10 times a year for 10 years =100 not 50 as previously mentioned!

Sorry for very late reply Yorkie. You are right, I haven't done a wide range of journeys. I have made that journey about 100 times but usually at the same or similar times.

Many thanks Bramling. That is one of my two usual routes for this journey. But I've always found the tube to be crowded in both directions. I generally travel from St P to Vauxhall at about 11.40am weekday and return at about 3pm on Saturday or Sunday. I've made the journey about 50 times and...

Many thanks very helpful. My final destination is Brentford High Street. I shall have a look at that route. Is it on the Oyster card system?

Can anyone please help with a rather complicated question. Due to chemotherapy for cancer which impacts the immune system I need to find the best route from Leicester to Kew Bridge which involves coming into contact with the minium number of passengers. I usually go Leic to London St Panc then...

Many thanks NSE that's very interesting. However, I don't know what happened. So don't know if it was a trespasser. Does anyone know? Best wishes

Thanks but not sure what that means. Do you mean someone on the track? Where on the track? Between Leicester and Nottingham? Thanks again

Train from Leicester to Nottingham (origin London St P ?) stood on Leicester station for a long time with doors closed. Then they let us on. I think it set off about 30 minutes late. I arrived on platform at about 4.25 and it was already there. It then set off for Nottingham at about 4.50 I...

Many thanks!! Very helpful and very quick. Much appreciated. Best wishes 1728515188 Sorry. Quick question. Presumably I travel FAW to Bristol Parkway then change for a train to Birmingham. Or can I get a train from FAW to Birmingham?
