    Bought tickets via VirginTrains need some guidance

    Hi Gang; Surely the discounted ticket (I'm assuming printed on APTIS stock) only says RCD for the discounted part. If so, then Senior Railcard or 16-25 should not matter. Technically a transfer, but an 'invisible' one??? Later; STU from EGDL (HMF Railcard Holder!!)

    class 320 refurb

    Hi Gang; Of course, if you repaint or revinyl the fleet quickly, then people will moan and mump about the railway being too samey and no variety and everyone will be out with their digi camera to record the last Carmine & cream 320/334 etc. It was just the same when Strathclyde Red went and...

    All Line Rover [ALR] restrictions from 2 January 2011

    Hi Gang; I'm disappointed at the introduction (possibly) of these restrictions....but I think that people who do ALRs for leisure can probably work around them. Those who use an ALR in preference to a 'normal' ticket will realise that a loophole, like many in all walks of life has eventually...
