We have both got Disabled Persons Railcards and Disabled ENCTS passes by friend has also got an "Autism Alert" card if that is what you mean? Because both me and him have the ENCTS passes I cannot see how you could restrict those with the disabled and older persons concessionary passes from...

As I have mentioned on another thread I have explained that some people are unable to drive for medical reasons/disability and once the lockdown restrictions are eased it would be very unfair if there were denied the ability to travel to do things like see friends/relatives or visit places for...

Yes that is a point a lot of the older travellers are likely to be avoiding rail travel for a while (shielding) so I would think that would mean off peak trains at least might continue to be a bit less busier than normal along with people who are still nervous about going back into society in...

I would assume the government (who after all has all the TOC's on management contracts) will not want to encourage unnecessary travel until such time a vaccine is found. After that I would assume it would drift back and find its own level which may well be lower if more WFH and vastly higher...

Hi, As TPE now have a direct Liverpool Lime Street - Glasgow Central service, I am curious about the previous services on this route and what stock was used. I know in the past Virgin Cross Country operated a Liverpool - Glasgow service, but when did it end, and what was the frequency? I seem...

When do you expect the first 777 to be in revenue earning service as my local station is South Parkway and I travel on Merseyrail frequently so I am looking forward to these in service. Will they be introduced gradually and then the 507s and 508s will be withdrawn by next year and when they are...
