When getting off the DLR at Prince Regent the DLR staff on the platform informed members of the public that Tapping out was not needed at the station and all the tap-out points were covered (I noticed the Tap In points were not covered but these were on a divided section that was not accessible...

I'm just wondering what would happen if you had to unexpectedly break a Advanced Ticket journey due to medical reasons with either yourself or the person who you're traveling with So if a person is traveling a 3 hour journey on an advanced ticket and something happens (Anxiety attack or...

Less about defending the driver and more about the length of time it took to check the drivers condition. If they needed to film, then maybe 10~15 seconds of showing the driver was asleep and then bang on the window to confirm the situation of the driver, this gives better evidence than...

I should also mention that I would have zero issue with a member of staff asking me to move on, I always carry tickets, my ID and Railcard with me Staff need to do their job so I would make it as easy as possible for them

Spoke to GWR about Reading and Oxford stations as I wasn't able to find any policy on their website and got this reply: Both of these stations I've never had issues at (See my first post about informing Platform Staff if I felt needed), in fact when the Class 707 was in test back in March...

I'm just wondering where you would usually find the Station Manager to ask for permission to take photos for personal use? I've always spoken to a member of staff on platform to get permission, usually a "My train is at xxxx, would it be OK to take a few photographs of trains while I wait, I'll...

Sorry I missed this reply I asked if there was any plans to change any of the trains on the following services: Reading - Basingstoke (Currently pathed as a Class 150) Swindon - Westbury (Currently pathed as a Class 150/153/155/156, Think its mostly 153's) As further electrification...

If the further electrification means EMU's will now be running on previously DMU lines, then that could mean GWR has a few DMU units they can now reallocate to different lines and/or to ease congestion on busy lines My question was, could this lead to the older units (Say the 150 Reading -...

Thanks :D Only a few months to go :D --------- Edit: Yep, sorry I got mixed up by something Rail Magazine posted, apologies

Ah ok, Any idea on/around October time then?

Does anyone know if there will be any changes in the following after the 20th (Different unit mostly) Class 150/0 Reading - Basingstoke Class 153/? Swindon - Westbury I'm quite interested in going on some Sprinter units but with the electrification underway I don't really want it to free up...

(Sorry if this has been answered before) Will the 800's be running Oxford to Paddington when the service starts in July, or will they only be on the GWML Bristol to Paddington?

I wasn't even aware this was a thing to be honest. Although I'm more interested in the experience of being on the Class of loco I'm after rather than the number Worst I've done is ask the chap behind the counter at OXP when Class 68's run (He seemed to have all the times memorized, this was...

Thanks, thought this was the case. I wasn't too sure when the guard mentioned Monday to me (Then facebook posters confused things further)

I'm sorry, I know people have mentioned the 20th but when it the last day the Class 121 is in service? From different sources I've heard: Monday 15th Tuesday 16th Thursday 18th Friday 19th And some people on here (read a few replies above) said Saturday 20th, what makes no sense as no services...

Thanks for finding them, I'll plan a journey 3~4 weeks in advance again Odd as looking back at my conversation with GWR, I emailed them on the 09/Oct trying to find first class tickets for the 24/Nov what should have shown some Sorry for the hassle :D (Should mention I couldn't find any today...

I'm after some advice on buying a First Class GWR ticket in advance while taking advantage of my 16-25 Railcard I try and search on their website for a service that (should) be running an Intercity 125 service From Oxford to London Paddington, (for example RealTime: 1P47) but the only tickets...
