Passed through Leeds station last Monday and whilst changing trains mid morning and early evening decided to grab a coffee outside the gate line and I can’t recall seeing as many beggars and shady looking characters lingering inside the station before. I made the mistake of using the toilets...

And fuelled by the Government ‘assuring’ people that there will not be any supply issues, which results in everyone panic buying fuel….!

The subway is extremely unpleasant not helped by some shady looking characters lurking about…

Chester station isn’t really too far from the start of the main shopping area, the issue is the dreadful urine and dope smelling and often flooded subway you have to use to get to the city centre…

It’s worth remembering that all Welsh residents over the age of 60 get free travel all year round on the Conwy Valley Line presumably because the bus provision is poor. However, it would be cheaper to subsidise an hourly bus service and leave the train frequency as it is but manage capacity by...

The T10 bus runs largely hourly between Bangor and Betws y Coed and is considerably quicker and cheaper than the train.

Bring 3 points back to Derbyshire with you….lol!

Surely there must be an easier way to find out which is the best ticket to buy for a relatively routine journey!

The Gold Day Rider increases to £11.50 next month..!

and no doubt likely to remain that way for some time to come!

Perhaps the guard gets double the amount of commission if h they scan 2 tickets…?

Grindleford may be a better option, lots of traffic congestion and roadworks on the A6…

Met up with some pals in Manchester yesterday and as it was raining (as usual in Manchester) and one guys isn’t too good on his feet we decided to catch the free City Centre Shuttle bus 2 from outside Victoria Station to Piccadilly to continue our pub crawl. I checked on BusTimes and noticed...
