I understand that if the bus is late it's at my own risk but I'm prepared to do that - there is about 45 mins between arrival of bus and departure of train. FGW used to do a whole booklet listing the bus links - is that publication still going? --- old post above --- --- new post below ---...

I had a feeling, ollieb, that might be the case. I guess I could print out the relevant info from the NFM if someone could provide a link ;) and argue that. If there's any problem I could write to Stagecoach I guess.

Just discovered that there is a Bus Link ticket from my town of Cullompton (which has no rail station) to Tiverton Parkway. The origin code is H015 and the destination code is 3474. The options are a day single of £1.30 (on the bus the fare is £2.10) and a day return or period return at...

Cheers - I'll bring plenty of change!!

odd request this but coming back on the Cal Sleeper on a Saturday after a week away and then going off for a week from Kings Cross. Is there a Launderette near any of these stations where I can do a load of washing?

For two pin adaptors simply use a continental adaptor - fits in fine. I have even used a block adaptor so two people can charge their 'phones. It dies work - but very slowly!

Please note spelling of the town: MiddlesBROugh. Urban myth suggests misprint on the original town charter...

Sounds great fun - I was there last month on a school trip. Let us know how it goes!!

Why not just do what they do on the Night Riviera (also run by First) where single travellers have a single cabin to themselves and you don't share unless you know the person.

You could try axing the train?

Thanks for all the advice. I might just stick in STD and save the money for a cuppa or snack!

Going on this on a Saturday - is it worth upgrading to First Class? £7 each each way.

Just booked return tickets London Liverpool St to Amsterdam through Stena's Rail Sail website. Got e ticket with all the details on. Will this be enough to get me on the train at Liverpool St - do I need coupons for this sector or for the Dutch sector?

I understand people have problems buying tickets to Okehampton when FGW run their Sunday service to there. Something to do with the Council paying for the service, possibly? Have also had a mate who was not allowed to use his ALR to there!!!

Is there a ticket (or combination thereof) for travel from Fenchurch St to Southend Central and then coming back from Southend Victoria to Liverpool St? This would be on a Sunday afternoon returning on the same day, with NSE card.

Have you tried advance tickets on the Sleeper?

Asked at TVP and they found out about it and happy to issue it. One final question: In what form do they tickets take - is it 10 x orange tickets or a book or a scratch off?

Was on the 15:07 ex PLY today. Service from Newquay to PAD. Announced as 9 carriage train. At front beyond H was a locked out of use carriage labelled X. Paper label said "Baggage for Paddington". Surely a waste of a carriage?? How often does this happen?

Axminster has two platforms but they are the wrong way round, trains pass left to left instead of right to right. (ie wrong side of the "road").

Thanks for all your help guys. First trip in October so wont be for a while!
