    Ramsgate to Pevensey/Eastbourne

    I have to go to a funeral on New Years Eve The nearest station appears to be Pevenesy and Westham - followed by a bus ride. The wake is in Seaford so would have to come back to Ramsgate via Eastbourne if I attend. The funeral is at 11.30 which means I'd have to get a train from Ramsgate just...

    Should railcards be linked/verified to online accounts?

    I have a Disabled RailCard. I provided a copy of my prescription from an audiologist as proof Would you expect a rail worker to have the knowledge to interpret that Or understand a prescription for epilepsy medication? I think that there would be more issues with having to produce the...

    10.42 Ramsgate to Charing Cross

    My usual train I noticed today (as I was going in the other direction) that it was timetabled to leave at 10.36. I’ve seen this on occasions before. Checking next Tuesday the journey planner has it back at 10.42 There’s obviously a reason but does anyone know what that is? Little more than...

    Ramsgate to Wickford

    Think I know the answer to this but just checking Doing the above return journey. I can get an e ticket but the itinerary includes the walk between Stratford International and Stratford Given my back this is not an attractive option I am assuming that the e ticket precludes hopping on the...

    The Granville Express

    As a resident of Ramsgate I found this article particularly interesting It’s about The Granville Express which used to run from London to Thanet and, apparently, was the first “named” train https://www.ramsgatetown.org/ramsgate/ramsgate-news/news?p=10211727

    Ramsgate to Three Oaks

    Maybe me but when I try to book this online I can only get a paper ticket You can get an e-ticket Ramsgate to Eastbourne or Rye so was (idly) wondering what’s different about Three Oaks Full journey is a return tomorrow with a Disabled Persons Railcard. Off Peak. It’s easy enough to buy at...
