    Caledonian Sleeper discussion

    Platform 11 was what it was routed into. Looking onto google maps and OpenStreetMap, this has a very long platform, strechting almost one third over the river Clyde. However, normally this final bit is not for public use due to no trains being that long, and the very narrow nature. I don't know...

    Limit to 1st Class tickets

    Although if services worked by a double train, this sometimes doesn't work. A TPE train I had (Hull - Manchester) was doubled up, with a train consisting of ABAB coaches. It was impossible to make any reservations for this train at Manchester Oxford Road/Piccadilly, with employees saying it was...

    London North Eastern Railway (LNER) First Class service

    Doing food is often not decided shortly before/after departure, as that would mean the train is already stocked, and food won't stay good forever. Probably they're having to do with a few less staff to prepare food, and that service sees a lighter load than other trains. Therefor, they may...

    Letter received from Debt Recovery and Prosecutions Unit

    Bank statements are proof of purchase of product, as provided by EU regulations as far as I'm aware. So yes, they'd have to accept it. Obviously, it'll help if it was a regular payment for the same price (if it didn't include additional tickets) that is also the price of the season ticket.

    Gunman wounds 3 on THALYS service in Northern France (BBC)

    Those familiar with the Brussels Midi station layout will know it's impossible to do a full check-in with luggage checks anyway. Platforms 3-6 where TGV, ICE, Thalys stop see also local services, and the frequency is too high to be able to check all passengers. They're most probably opting for...

    East Coast Diversions North of Newcastle 2015 (edit: via Carlisle)

    With a double reversal as planned (Edinburgh & Newcastle) you'll just end up with the same orientation as if it weren't diverted. ;-)
