Another factor may be that many fares aren't set individually, but as part of clusters. The clusters for Arnside-Preston walk-up tickets are shown here: http://www.brfares.com/#expert?orig=ARN&dest=PRE. All tickets of a particular type and route between the origin cluster and the destination...

1F40 in the usual Sunday working timetable is 22:08 Portsmouth Harbour - Westbury 23:59 (via Salisbury at 23:28) Because of engineering works between Southampton and Salisbury this appears to be replaced today by: 1F40 22:08 Portsmouth Harbour - Southampton Central 22:55 Bus 23:06 Southampton...

I've just tried it (https://c2c.delayrepaycompensation.com/index.cfm?action=myclaims.add) and it lets me choose any day between 29 September and today.

Using the easements list as a barometer, it looks like this is already ongoing. (Edit - I defer to Kieron who states above that to his knowledge no tickets use the DIRECT route anymore) After the removals listed by kieron of easements related to defunct DIRECT routes, there are only two mentions...

That easement is in the "removed" section of Kieron's post, so the point of the change is not to add restrictions via Morpeth, but to removed a defunct restriction relating to a non-existent fare route. There are still some contradictory easements in this area - eg.

SWR might not show it in their own timetables, but the National Rail Timetable (https://www.networkrail.co.uk/running-the-railway/the-timetable/electronic-national-rail-timetable/ - Table 158) shows the "reservations available" diamond symbol for services like these. I would guess the timetable...

The 1826 is indeed a local train so less likely to be disrupted (though there could be knock-on effects). But if the 1822 is up to ten minutes late at Leicester (perhaps even a bit more) I would be tempted to wait for that as it would still be likely to overtake the local train before East...

The EMR-priced Super Off-Peak Return from Chinley to Thorpe-le-Soken carries retriction code CI [1]. This applies particular restrictions to when trains may arrive and depart St Pancras and Bedford, but for journeys to Euston says "please use restriction 2C" 2C is the restriction code applied...

Yes, sorry, lapse in attention from me there. Worth noting though it's happening again several times in December.

For example, it happened this last Sunday when the first three SWR serivices to London started from platform 4. https://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/search/detailed/WDNLUL/2019-10-20/0200-0159?stp=WVS&show=all&order=wtt Edit: looking ahead, I see a similar arrangement is planned for most of the...

That's right - there aren't any new services as such; the services to Wigan from Alderley Edge and Stalybridge will be extended to Southport, and the services to Southport from Blackburn and Leeds will be cut back to Wigan in exchange.

Services on the Southport to Wigan line are again changing in December - including reinstating direct services from Southport to Manchester Piccadilly as discussed elswehere. Were you to make your journey then you would find a neater connection arriving Burscough Bridge at 1547 for the 1605 from...

Afraid not - I was on the Barrow train.

To add to the observations of short-forming, 1C57 (1634 Manchester Airport to Barrow) was a 2-car 156 instead of a 3-car 195/1 today and yesterday, with announcers at Piccadilly pro-actively advising passengers for Bolton and Chorley to wait for the next service six minutes behind, before...

No mention on the Northern JourneyCheck, but there is this page on National Rail: https://www.nationalrail.co.uk/service_disruptions/227198.aspx From RTT looks like the same bus replacement was in place last Sunday and next Sunday.

That's quite common at the barriers there - I have regularly used (railcard-discounted) TransPennine Express advance tickets from Preston to Manchester since May at Oxford Road, in paper and digital formats, and always have to be let through manually as the barriers have not been set up to...

For example: you can get Penzance-Newport on GWR 150/158 with possible changes at Plymouth/Exeter/Taunton, if there are still diagrams which are not HST GTi Then Newport-Manchester Piccadilly on TfW 158 (sometimes replaces the usual 175). Manchester Victoria - Leeds - Carlisle on Northern 15x...

I don't know the answer but looked this up to illustrate your point as I wasn't sure what you meant: realtimetrains.co.uk/train/P38358/2019/10/08/advanced This is a weekday Reading-Birmingham service booked to reverse at Foxhall junction instead of running directly to Oxford. Seems to have only...

Looks like the 1637 can end up pretty packed in this case, especially if the quick turnaround leads to a late start - eg on 13 September it picked up extended dwells at Piccadilly and Oxford Road and then skipped Deansgate, suggesting heavy overcrowding...

Looking at Google's journey planner for weekdays, the last direct service to Eccles in the morning is at 07:12 from MediaCityUK and the first in the evening is at 20:10. From Eccles the last morning service via MediaCityUK is at 06:53 and the first in the evening is 19:51. These times will be...
