Hi all. On Friday 24th Jan I intend to travel from Kidderminster to Hykeham (leaving as soon after 9am as possible), but wish to have a break of journey in Lincoln. When I did this journey years ago, the train from Nottingham to Lincoln missed out Hykeham so this was achievable. However, now...

Hi, I'm planning a journey from Kidderminster (KID) to Hykeham (HKM) next January 24th. I would like to have a few hour's break of journey in Nottingham, whilst still arriving in Hykeham about 5pm and having an off peak ticket. I have seen that the restrictions state that it is not valid on a...

Hi all, I've looked through various sites and have got more and more confused so hopefully someone can help. In October I am travelling with my family to Saint Louis (effectively a French suburb of Basel in Switzerland). On the Tuesday of the week we're looking to travel to Europa-Park (Rust...

Hi all - looking for some help as finding conflicting info. My intended journey is Stourbridge Junction -> Rugby outward on 22/3 (around 9:30 dep) return 24/3 (around 10:00 dep). I intend to stop at Birmingham International (for the NEC for about 6 hours) on the way. There are advance tickets...

Hi. I am trying to get an advance fare from Kidderminster to Braintree for 5th November (arriving Braintree at 10:50). There seems to be no availability. I have checked and the fare setter is Chiltern. On their site you can select to get an alert, but the 5th November seems to be too soon to...

Hi, I was due to travel fairly long distance today on a business trip, with expenses paid. I booked my tickets last night through Trainsplit (there was actually no split, it turned out as two standard singles. They are just my preferred booking engine). This morning, I have woken up to the...

Hi, I'm looking at making a return journey Stourbridge Junction to Chester Road in August. I have looked at brfares, and an off-peak day return is £8.30 (I'm travelling on a Saturday). I remembered once seeing something about a West Mids day ranger kind of ticket - I have found the following...

Hi A family member has bought Mobile tickets through Trainline however his phone does not support the app (old SE, cannot update to new OS so cannot get the app). Is there a way to convert this to either an E-ticket (so I can print it) or even TOD so I can sort at a station for him?

Hi, I am in the early stages of planning a trip to Brighton over a weekend (Fri-Sun) in July. This involves a cross London connection. I am aware outward journey needs to be done in one go (I think) but you can split the return. As my ticket will incorporate a London bridge to Marylebone tube...

Hi, I have an upcoming journey on Sat 26th from Wolverhampton -> Manchester and back (day trip). I have just received an email from trainsplit advising the return I was booked on has now been cancelled. It advises me to catch the next available train - however I am wondering whether I can...

Hi, I am planning on utilising the first class upgrade option with CrossCountry on Feb 26th from Wolverhampton to Manchester. I have, however, noted that the t&c on food says Sandwiches are Complimentary for weekend journeys of 90 minutes or more. My journey is only 1h09mins - is it at all...

Hi all, I am trying to get some advance tickets for a return journey from Wolverhampton to Manchester on February 26th. I have looked on Crosscountry however it only seems to be offering the standard return - however we are now under the 12 week mark so thought they should be available? Does...

I have noticed recently two threads where people buy a season ticket between two close stations whilst using it for a much longer journey (Birmingham Moor Street to Snow Hill - journey of 0.5 miles by foot. It occurred to me that these surely must almost only be used by those travelling...

Hi, I got a PF this morning (£20) for not having a ticket between Kidderminster [KID] and Worcester Shrub Hill [WOS] on West Midlands Trains (WMT/WMR). Kidderminster station is currently going through a massive refurb and as such navigating your way around the station is difficult (temporary...

Hi, Just wondering what should have happened to me in this case, as I read not having your railcard is OK for first offence? I travelled from Ormskirk to Malvern Link, changing at Liverpool Central -> Liverpool Lime Street and Birmingham New Street. I had a young person's railcard (as was)...

Hi all - me again! I'm looking at booking a return journey for 2 adults no railcard (and a 4 year old) from WOP to BIT on Sunday 23/02/2020 (first day of WOP being open... hopefully!). I have tried to check fares through NRE website but keeps coming back as error. I know it needs a change at...

Due to weather I am looking at using the train tomorrow. I need to go Kidderminster -> Malvern Link then MVL -> Worcester (arriving before 9am) then Worcester-> MVL and MVL -> Kidderminster departing Worcester after 5pm. I appreciate it's peak in the morning. What's the best combo of tickets?

Hi, I had a journey today which included WMT and the WMT part didn't run meaning I was delayed by 28 minutes (although could have been a lot more if I was slower!). Just wondering who I submit to and which tickets to list. Itinerary as follows: 15/02/2020 Sandwell to Wolverhampton on Single...

Hi help needed please. Currently at Stoke trying to get to Sandwell & Dudley. I am supposed to be on Coventry bound train (WMR) but next 2 cancelled due to flooding. My ticket is advance Specified Trains & WMR/LNR connections. Just spoke to info chap and apparently no lifting of restrictions...

Hi, I am travelling from Worcestershire Parkway (provided it's open!) to Manchester via Brum on 15th Feb (07:33 -> 10:00). I am interested in First Class upgrade on Brum -> Manchester leg @ £12.50. 2 questions really... is it worth it (what do you get?) and also as I'm split ticketing at...
