https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-south-yorkshire-49954140 Is it me or are things getting worse? Someone going around doing their job can be attacked by a scrote who probably hasn't seen a day's work in their life.

Not sure if I like the sound of getting rid of return tickets https://www.gov.uk/government/news/two-improvements-to-ensure-passengers-get-a-better-deal-on-rail-fares

Not sure if this has been asked before. I have recently received an email from Cross-country that a delay repay I submitted has been accepted, and will be paid via PayPal (which I requested). I would have assumed that PayPal would be quicker, but any idea how long it usually takes? I know the...

I'm currently on a delayed CrossCountry service due to shortage of train manager. Apparently they left him at York. Fair play to the guy he's walked down and apologised to everyone but how could this have happened?

Conflicting stories have come out about HS2 in Sheffield according to the BBC http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-south-yorkshire-41277560

So HS2 have announced that Sheffield Station will be a stop on HS2 using existing rail tracks. However it was my understanding that Sheffield was near to capacity and of course for HS2 the station will need to be extended. Does Sheffield Station have the capacity for extra trains or could...

Just been mentioned on the news that Southern have been fined £13.5 million over not providing services. Can't find a link to the news article yet

On 23rd February I travelled from Sheffield to Birmingham with split tickets. One set of tickets from Sheffield to Nottingham (valid via Derby) and Derby to Birmingham. Of course the 23rd was when Storm Doris decided to pay a visit. After I finished what I needed to do I was to go back to...

I've got my daughter coming with me on a journey on Tuesday at some really stupid time (6am). I've done the usual split tickets that I do but with hers it is coming up £12.20 and £12.30. I was always on the understanding that the rail card could be used before 10am but it had to be over £13...

I might be in the next few weeks going to East Malling for a few days (how the locals down there will cope with me is anyone's guess). Anyway I have used all the usual split ticketing websites and it can't find any splits at all. As it will be a spur of the moment thing advances are no good...

Having a quick nosy at real time trains this morning I noticed this cancellation at Darlington http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/Y31696/2015/09/05/advanced It's not a train in passenger service, but I don't think I have ever seen contractual exclusions used as an excuse before

Source Must say that when assistance is booked it can be hit and miss, but who is to blame?

I will more than likely be travelling from Sheffield to Walsall for at least 2 days a week from October so I have been looking at options for splitting season tickets. I already know the split prices (comes to £35.90 return instead of 41.90 Advance Single) for a 1 off journey, but I was...

OK as many of you know a majority of my journeys are made by split tickets after wonderful help from this forum. However today something has baffled me. Today I was travelling to station X and was able to get split tickets. Let me give you an example of what I mean : Station A is a major...
