Very strange, in particular for bus 108. There are no plans to increase frequency / capacity; the buses are already very well loaded through the tunnel (sometimes full and standing); and I doubt there are many passenger journeys on the 108 which will switch to the Silvertown tunnel when it...

I’ve stayed in Copenhagen a few times and been across to Malmo a couple of times. I’m probably doing it a complete disservice, but I’ve not been impressed with Malmo… after walking around for about 30 minutes I’ve headed back to the station to return to Copenhagen. The Helsingborg / Helsingor...

There’s no reason to stop using your Trainline account, though there are plenty of other ticketing apps available. The important thing is to stop applying the railcard discount (which it seems you have done) or buy a new railcard if appropriate.

There’s a membership scheme at Schiphol airport called Privium which only relies on iris scans. I was part of the original trial in the early-2000s and was a member for many years. Never had a problem with it and meant I could skip the queues, which was very useful as I was travelling every...

Good news is that Thameslink will often settle out of court if you cooperate with them. Don’t even think about solicitors unless it gets to court, which is very unlikely. Could you post a copy of the letter that you’ve received from Thameslink on here, together with a copy of your reply. Make...

Regarding the OPs original question, the OP could use their Freedom Pass on London Overground All the way to Watford Junction, and change there for LNR to Tring.

You’re overthinking this. They won’t be prosecuting you for fraud as it’s very difficult to build up a prosecution case and obtain a successful fraud conviction. As stated above, you’re just one of many cases for prosecution, and the method that TfL is the easiest, quickest and cheapest way for...

And on a similar point, you mention Thameslink in your draft. Southeastern will be more interested in what you have to say about travelling on their services, rather than a different operator.

Not sure what you mean by criminal sentence. A court will only impose a fine as a result of a guilty conviction - the conviction automatically results in a criminal record. Any fine, penalty, community service etc. is a follow-on from the conviction.

LNER have just put out the following on Twitter / X, so it’s dry trains home for the Newcastle supporters. https://x.com/lner/status/1900154890606809420?s=61&t=v8jM_B9OBPwJtGB_7WM2Fg

Yes

You’ve arrived at your intended destination on time, so you wouldn’t be eligible for delay repay. Whilst you may get repaid if you put in a claim for A-B, you run the risk of being caught eventually if / when a train operator does a trawl through your Delay Repay claim history. Is it worth the...

Yes, if you’ve made the payment, it’s all closed now. Make sure you keep copies of letters and proof of payment - usually we suggest retaining all of this for at least a year.

Is your son’s estimate of 78-80 occasions referring to return trips? That would roughly equate to Southeastern’s estimate of 150 trips, as they will have almost certainly considered single journeys.

That draft is going to need some work for it to make any sense. Remember, at the moment as far as SouthEastern are concerned the matter has been dealt with and closed, and your draft states that you’ve already paid £774 to CEDR Group. So South Eastern will be completely puzzled by a request to...

So to answer your questions… This won’t go away. If you can’t / don’t get the letter then it will ultimately just progress to court and you’ll be found guilty in absence. The court are then very good at finding people with unpaid fines, so you should assume that they will find you. But...

You’re overthinking. Millions of journeys are made daily using Oyster or Contactless without any problem at all. I’ve used Oyster (and subsequently contactless) since it was launched over 20 years ago - never had a problem.

Not sure what a Transport UK corporate card is. How does it hold a zone 2-6 Travelcard? If it’s just a visa or Mastercard Corporate card then surely it just holds a cash balance or credit line, and operates on the system like a contactless card? Alternatively, you could alight from SWR at...

Based on previous incidents in the last few years which have resulted in major disruption - No, not a chance.
