    Cambridge to London Bridge?

    That's true. Why not just buy a ticket as when and when required?

    Cambridge to London Bridge?

    Why not just get a paper season ticket then?

    Can you excess to a cheaper ticket?

    I've spoken to an EMT guard who will at least only charge half of the difference. However he did insist on selling an excess ticket of the same type (Off Peak and not Super Off Peak) which I refused to pay. He subsequently asked me to leave the train.

    TPE Overcrowding: Due to excessive numbers of cheap APs?

    Did you mean "the policy of pricing advance singles £1.00 cheaper than returns"?

    Rail vouchers on ebay - legit or not?

    I wouldn't try that. For a start PayPal (if you claim with then) will likely suspend your account for that.

    Wait for Greater Anglia to contact you, there is nothing to be gained in contacting them now.

    Simple misunderstanding saw man threatened with court over train journey he paid for

    No it wasn't, it was a traditional paper ticket which had to be collected at a TVM or ticket office. He failed to do that.

    I've been offered £7.00 as a gesture of goodwill is that something I should accept?

    Travel in declassified first class when timetable shows standard only

    Fair point but what if I'm asked to pay as far as Cambridge and I have not got enough money to pay for it? I take it that I would be issued with a UFN?

    Travel in declassified first class when timetable shows standard only

    What if you're only going as far as Ely (at most) so no excess exists? Then I take it all they can do is ask me to leave or prosecute?

    Routing question

    I misunderstood I though you were comparing the Wymondham to London Terminals via Norwich fare to the Norwich to London Terminals one. Now I see what you were trying to say, I will follow your advice going forward.

    Routing question

    With all due respect tickets from Norwich to London Terminals are now cheaper than tickets from Wymondham to London Terminals (via Norwich). As long as I'm travelling on the next available service, I'll be OK to be at the station. Failing that I could always leave the station and come back to...

    Routing question

    I take the point, I didn't add that I wanted to do the following on the way back: London Terminals - Cambridge / Ely - Wymondham. Thanks will take that advice. Yes I take the point but what if I have a genuine reason to go through the gateline (but not break my journey per se) for example to...

    Routing question

    1) I suppose you could call it that. 2) Yes of course it is. But if I want to do one way via Cambridge and another way via Norwich then I would rather go for the cheapest possible option, buy the via Cambridge ticket and excess one way to be valid via Norwich. 3) Alright. How about I take your...

    Travel in declassified first class when timetable shows standard only

    What about GA regional services e.g. Norwich to Cambridge? AFAIK they are not classified at first class and therefore you can travel first class on them at no extra cost no matter what journey you are doing. From what I've been told (by a conductor) you can only travel first class if your...

    Routing question

    Thanks for your advice but I would like to ask why it is that I can't try exiting at Norwich? What happens if I need to go through the gateline to use the station facilities e.g. toilets or shops without exiting the station? Thanks for your advice yorkie.

    Routing question

    My bad, I think I'll clarify what I meant was the following: Permitted routes from Wymondham to Cambridge include the following options: 1) using a direct train 2) going to Norwich and getting a train from there to Ely and changing onto another train there 3) going to Norwich and changing onto...
