One of my fellow London Alty fans has been bemoaning the "£70 odd" fare he is being quoted to Gainsborough on Sat 30th November. Match KO at 3pm, so arriving anytime between 12 and 2, returning 5.30 onwards. Is he missing a trick?

National Rail site wants to send me to Wembley Central via the North London line. If I was to go that route surely a change at West Hampstead to the Jubilee to Wembley park would be better? I guess the least changes/hassle would be to go to Liverpool St and get the Metropolitan Line up?

Someone on twitter complaining that the ticket machine at Turkey Street couldn't sell him a ticket to Paddington on Sunday. They said Paddington didn't appear as a destination. What should they have pressed? Some sort of Zonal affair?

We were delayed tonight (18.25 Liv St to Broxbourne) at Tottenham Hale as there were no platform staff to despatch the train. The driver had to get out and despatch the train from the middle of the train. New one on me.

Hello folks. My colleague says his season ticket for the above is about £5.5k This is includes zones 1-6, he says this is the only way you can buy it to get to Bank. Shirley not! Did I read about being able to get to Moorgate as it is a London Terminal or was that a KX thing?

I was on a Cheshunt to Liverpool Street train via Seven Sisters tonight when the inspectors came across someone who showed an invalid ticket. Upon a second inspection of the ticket (as it was rather crumpled) the inspector noticed it was for Harlow Town to Cheshunt. She immediately said "I...

Plenty of moaning about train staff goes on but I have to mention the TM on this service. Very informative, pleasant, enthusiastic and a real credit to the company.

Through my own lack of admin skills I have ended up booking two sets of tickets to Manchester P from Euston for this weekend. Now the first incorrect one leaves before the one I have selected to use so that is a dead rubber. The return leg however the duplicate is for the same train. My...

Currently sat on 1E13 going backwards on a one hour coastal diversion. Does anyone know the background to the latest over running? Delay Repay in action although the Guard announced that First Class passengers should write to the TOC stating the head code, why is it different for First...
