Me being an idiot again... Was trying to amend my advance ticket for the train home tonight on the LNER website. Turns out you can only cancel it. (Yes i know thats the whole point of advances but GWR for instance lets you amend free of charge) Looked all over the page for a 'cancel refund'...

Bought tickets for this coming weekends adventure last Saturday. Weighing up if i want to take my bike or not (waiting to see what the weather is like). How short notice can you reserve a bike on Avanti and is there an admin fee?

Just a bit of a rant really. Me and a mate went chasing the Steam dreams Christmas circular today, never seen such a load of absolute cr*p. Hanging out towards the end of the platform, no problem, as it arrived. Walked down to take a photo of Braunton and was greeted with barriers and some...

Hi guys Bought an advance ticket for an adventure this weekend for collection at Maidstone Barracks. Went down yesterday afternoon to find the ticket machine is out of order. Crossing my fingers it will be fixed by Friday (day of travel). Out of curiosity, what happens/should i do if the TVM is...

Hi guys, me again Wanting to buy some advance tickets from St Pancras to Loughbrough on 19th August. Ive checked on the Southeastern website and only Super Off Peak returns are available at the moment. When is the earliest i will be able to purchase the advance tickets?

I am a colossal idiot and bought two sets of advance tickets (me+ a friend) for the wrong weekend which i payed and confirmed before realising my mistake on the Southeastern website for collection at my local TVM which is unstaffed (Maidstone Barracks). I was under the mistaken impression that...
