I've noticed the tap on machines on all the 521/522/523 buses I've used in Halifax in the past couple of weeks.

When I was a growing up in Sheffield in the late 70s/early 80s we'd very occasionally have a driver change inside the bus garage on Herries Road. (More usually in the lay-bys immediately outside though!)

They didn't when I caught it. It arrived into the Manchester bound platform and departed straight back out towards Bradford. It was running late, and made up most of the late running by doing so.

I really hope they don't split. I remember a few times when Northern Spirit Calder Valley services were disrupted on the Lancashire side of The Pennines that requests for assistance at Manchester Victoria were met with comments along the lines of 'nothing to do with us, and NS don't have any...

I have six tokens which I'm not going to be able to use. I'll give three away (they are Johnson Press tokens so three are needed!) which will be posted at my expense by second class post tomorrow to the first two people to PM me their details. If this breaks any house rules, I'll apologise in...

If you did Karl, that's a great result. However the two conductors I encountered told me they couldn't sell them, so buying on the train isn't something I'd advise anyone to rely on. The terms and conditions are here: https://www.northernrailway.co.uk/jpimedia Condition 7: Affix three tokens...

You can also buy SY Connect+ (and all the other PTE day tickets) on the First bus app. It's a great idea; I wish they'd use the same integration in West Yorkshire for the DaySaver (ex-MetroDayRover) tickets too...

All this tinkering and they still haven't managed to solve the problem of how to integrate the paper ticket range with MCards.

Thank you for taking the time to reply, Flying Snail. I did, indeed, forget to mention the other reason for 'Standby' is so that I can refund the tickets if I need to and as I'm travelling with two other people this is a useful safeguard. You are correct - the tickets are just 'Single' tickets...

I have booked a ‘Sailrail Standby Single’ from Halifax to Dublin Ferryport (and in reverse) and I have conflicting information about the reservations required for the rail part of my journey. The reason I book ‘Standby’ is that according to the ticket restrictions on the Virgin Trains website...
