    Pangbourne to Aberdeen

    Sort of cat amongst the pigeons time! NR enquiries suggest all is fine with my journey below on 15th September (but that seems optimistic tbh) - advanced ticket Pangbourne to Aberdeen with seat reservations on all but the 1st journey.: Board the 11:19 Great Western Railway service to London...

    ScotRail under fire after major disruption around Edinburgh on Saturday 24 August

    It is not wholly an SG issue as you have linked it to taking in the cash. The monies generated are not seen by the SG. So, the We in your first statement is the UK.

    Is it illegal to sit in a reserved seat, given that someone else has paid for it?

    GDPR applies only if you can use the information to the detriment of the person involved. If, for example, the seat reservation had name, postcode and date of birth then GDPR would apply. There is nothing within GDPR which prevents a name and a name alone being shown on a seat reservation. I...

    Another paralympian delayed disembarking

    I fail to see the relevance of her being a paralympian other than gaining publicity.

    5x Class 153 conversion to bike and baggage vans for Scotrail

    They need to be seen in context i.e. paired to a normal liveried 156. I would opt for number 5 but it might look dreadful when coupled to a normal unit.

    Scotrail Class 385 Discussion

    Is it just me that thinks the font and use of First rather than 1st looks a bit like the First Group logo?

    ScotRail HST Introduction - Updates & Discussion

    The class 365s were looking tatty around the Scotrail stickers very soon after their introduction so you'd have hoped lessons would have been learned. I can understand the abellio stickers and the living wage stickers on the doors being as such but, since the whole idea of the Scotrail saltire...

    Aberdeen to Edinburgh Sunday travel

    Presumably due to the engineering work at Morpeth these tickets are still not on sale - does anyone have any idea when they might become available? 22/9/19 from Aberdeen to Edinburgh.

    Advanced Ticket - Connecting Service

    The Tweedbank train getting in might or might not have barriers but the one to Aberdeen probably will - since I'm getting my booked service to Aberdeen, I don't think this will be an issue. The furthest I'm likely to go would be the Wetherspoons at the top of the ramp for a coffee and something...

    Advanced Ticket - Connecting Service

    I have an advanced single for tomorrow from Tweedbank to Aberdeen - my Edinburgh to Aberdeen train is at 12.30 and I have a seat reservation. I had planned to get the 1058 from Tweedbank to Edinburgh but will now struggle to get to Tweedbank for that time. My question is, is my connecting ticket...

    Reserving Seats on a Specific Train

    Perfect - used Trainsplit (took me a while to spot the allow how many extra minutes for connections) but am now booked and saved £40 by getting the LNER at 1841 as using advanced tickets both ways rather than the return - through tickets as well so no split and no % of the saving to Raileasy...

    Reserving Seats on a Specific Train

    Doing a complicated journey from the south of England to Aberdeen on Sunday 15th September - travelling down on Friday 13th. Planning on getting a Super Off Peak return ticket which allows the use of effectively any train but the Sunday trip I want to select allows only 8 minutes leeway when...

    Aberdeen to Edinburgh Sunday travel

    Actually, 0947 would be ideal - I'll keep checking frequently.

    Aberdeen to Edinburgh Sunday travel

    Yeah, we're looking for either early morning or early afternoon - I had only really checked times after 9am. I will keep looking, of course.

    Aberdeen to Edinburgh Sunday travel

    The 1110 Cross Country is less convenient (for us) than other trains on the Sunday but seems to be the cheapest option.

    Aberdeen to Edinburgh Sunday travel

    Maybe I could have been clearer - I have checked fares for every single Sunday between 23rd June and 15th September - I wish to travel on 22nd September.

    Aberdeen to Edinburgh Sunday travel

    Scotrail seem pretty good at weekday advance tickets but I can't find any available on any Sunday service from Aberdeen to Edinburgh between now and 15/9/19. The Scotrail website still mentions £5 tickets 7 days a week but cheapest Scotrail fare I can find (2 pax, 2 together) is £44.20. A Cross...
