Thanks. I will be referring back to this should I have difficulties. Hopefully not but I always fear the worst. Thanks for your detailed, brilliant reply. 1788972050 Does anybody know, please, if the railway staff don't help, and I'm stranded in Crewe/Birmingham - how exactly do I claim back...

Thanks for the superb reply to my question. Yes, I agree, if I see my train is outright cancelled at Glasgow, and I have enough notice, I could ask if I can get an earlier Avanti train, saying it's a certainty I won't make the connection at Crewe. If I can see it's inevitable that I will miss...

Thanks. In my scenario, would LNW likely have to get me to Birmingham at least (despite the thoretical delay being Avanti's fault)....then what happens at Birmingham? It would be 11 to 11.30pm? What likely should I do?

Thanks, is 14.2 the relevant part? If so, that isn't as clear as what I was hoping for. I want something like "If you use split tickets and you miss the connection, it will be treated as if you bought one ticket and we will honour our duty to get you to your destination".

I bought an advance purchase ticket on Trainsplit for September 25th from Ayr to Worcester. I have two separate tickets, Ayr-Crewe (Scotrail/Avanti) and Crewe-Worcester (LNW/WMR). Although I have two tickets, I actually booked from Ayr to Worcester in one transaction (the emailed itinerary /...

Thanks. I put in a claim saying I was 30+ minutes late. The time I cycled past was approximately 35 minutes late. Fairest I could do. Thanks for all replies.

Yes, I was on that train, and they offered the connection as you say, for people wanting to get to Foregate Street. They did say you might not make the connection especially if travelling with luggage (but in reality I probably would have, despite being only 5 minutes), in which case get a later...

I had my bike with me. It meant I had a further mile or so to get home. By chance, my route home took me right past Foregate Street station.

I got a train last night from London Paddington, intending to get off at Worcester Foregate Street. It arrived into Worcester Shrub Hill approximately 25 minutes late and terminated there. It was cancelled between Shrub Hill and Foregate Street. How much delay repay do I get? Would it be...

I will be in London on Saturday 22nd and using Contactless (Zone 4 cap). I have my bicycle with me. To get from Euston to Welling, which might be the best way? 1. From Euston, I cycle to Charing Cross (takes 10 minutes), then get the train to Welling (trains seem hourly only, this would have...

Thanks, that's what I guessed might be the case.

I want to travel from Euston to Welling, then Woolwich Arsenal, then end up in Paddington. Welling and Woolwich are in Zone 4. I want to get the direct train from Welling to Woolwich, without breaking my journey. It starts and ends in Zone 4, but travels into Zones 5 and 6 on its route. If I...

Thanks. I missed that! Clockwise or anticlockwise, from Cannon Street?

I'm arriving into London at Marylebone station. I have my bike with me. My destination is Hastings. My return ticket includes transfer by London Underground. With my bike, I think the obvious thing to do is get the Underground from Edgware Road to Victoria and then a train from Victoria to...

I'm in Merseyside for two days. I can't decide whether to get a Saveaway or a Daysaver ticket. Are the main differences betwwen the two the fact that the Saveaway can be used additionaly on the ferry, buses and the railway line to St Helens (and also is slightly more expensive)? Also, both...

I'll be buying the off-peak Return at £49.30 from Worcester Foregate Street to Highbridge & Burnham, departing Monday, returning Friday. I would like to visit Bath Spa for an hour or two on (preferably) the outward journey. If I put "via Bath Spa", no valid ticket is available as of course it...

What happens in this scenario, please... I am travelling from Swindon to Brighton. I have two advance purchase tickets - Swindon to London Paddington and also London Victoria to Brighton. I allow 90 minutes from my arrival into Paddington until my departure from Victoria, planning to walk (or...

But either way, I have a valid ticket, every point along the way, don't I? The second I invalidate my advance ticket by alighting at Mossley Hill, I am in posession of a valid ticket, the Saveaway, providing it is the correct time of day.

If at South Parkway, providing the Saveaway ticket is valid at that time of day, wouldn't the ticket machine just assume I boarded elsewhere, eg Hunts Cross? From the machine's viewpoint I would be inserting a valid ticket.

Yes.....or for the purpose of this scenario - a friend buys one the day before, and gives it to me in Birmingham, before I depart.
