I'm travelling on this route for the first time in October, on paper it could be quite nice. Anyone done it? Tips for things to look out for? Any idea what I will be in, all I know is that there is no First class.

At the end of August I am staying the night in An apartment in the St Pancras Tower. Apparently there are steps up behind the clock face and maybe some sort of outside access although I am not 100% sure. It should be pretty good and a notch and a half. Does anyone know more about it or...

I was at Marlow station this morning (7:10) and noticed the info board stated "if you board the train without a ticket you may be charged by full single or return fare for your journey plus an additional charge in Penalty Fares areas" As there are not ticketing facilities at Marlow this seems...

Cheshunt zone 8. My g/f season ticket has expired. Is it better for her just to renew or go on to using oyster PAYG?

I've bought some tickets to Edinburgh from London KX. They have the code SMGPW. Iirc I bought a group ticket (4) so this must mean Small Group something? I thought they said GPS-4 in the past? My parents are asking if they need to bring their Senior a Railcards with them, however it...

I'm currently sat on the 11:35 from Man Picc to Euston. When the guard came around we asked to upgrade to first class. I wanted to use up a £25 RTV so offered it up as part of our upgrade. He said he couldn't accept them as his machine didn't take them? Not happy

Well my team have trundled into the play-offs so it looks like a home fixture in Altrincham on Saturday 3rd May. I tend to stay over. I see that Virgin is a no go as although I as willing to drive and park at Milton Keynes it would seem the train would only go to Rugby. So option one is...

Can any of these simulators be played on an iPad?

Ok folks.... Arriving around 2pm Friday 27th June Leaving Sunday 29th June around midday. Four adults. Interested in 2nd and 1st class. Two adults currently have senior railcards but they are due to expire before travel date. They are considering not renewing and purchasing the...

Returning in to Euston this evening I noticed the Overground trains from Watford Junction. I was remembering that it used to be the Bakerloo line. It made me think, where is the most northerly place on the 3rd rail system?

On line I can see £79 return for today. Can I buy that at Euston or do I have to do it on-line? Off-peak singles it said.

I noticed at Cheshunt today that there was a new poster up talking about the gateline now swallowing single and day return tickets. A clamp down on the number of used tickets?

Just back from a week in Copenhagen. I was impressed with their driverless Metro system, clean and very frequent. I also took the S train to Malmo, which had several features which would be nice to see here. Comfortable second class seats (2-2) Info displays that list what time the...

Each year we hear sound bites of season tickets hitting x value from y place. Now I am no lover of the year on year inflation busting fares to what feels like a standing still service - without going into the whys and wherefore to the reasons for this. £5k for Swindon and £8.5k for Gloucester...

Big continuity errors with the tube theme tonight! They don't know their Jubilee from their District never mind it taking "5 mins between Westminster and St James' Park

Looking to get a few returns for the above Out - Sat 15 March Return Sun 16 March Price at the moment is circa £70 return, I'm sure I've done this journey for nearer £50 in the past. I am dreaming there should snap up tickets now?

GA are running a Saturday service today. They state that this is because of the reduced demand, however Twitter is full of reporters of crowded trains will short formations. The main point that confuses me is that they are not charging weekend prices. I also overheard an elderly lady at...

I believe I read you can access the Virgin first class lounge with advance tickets? I thought this wasn't allowed or am I thinking of another TOC?

I am waiting for the release of tickets to Cardiff on the March 15/16 weekend to watch the rugby. Tonight only the 15th is available. There are no advance fares there I take it they come later? I wish there was a standard formula to know when to log on to see these. People on here say...

I am going to Tottingham Hotspur FC on Sunday (don't ask). I was out last night and some people I am going with said that there is all sorts of shenanigans going on. Apparently I need to change at Edmonton Green from Theobalds to White Hart Lane? I can't see the plan in my head.
