    Trip Report- 25 days on the rails in Europe...

    Having purchased a Central Scotland Rover online a while back I checked the Abellio ScotRail website to see if the validity was the same. http://www.scotrail.co.uk/offers/travel-passes/central-scotland-rover ''Edinburgh to Glasgow''. And there's no map anymore. I paid £24+£39.90 in advances...

    Boundary Zone 6-Shanklin query

    Hi all, A quick query, is a Boundary Zone 6-Shanklin (Via Wightlink) Off Peak Day Return permitted via Brighton? I could get a London-Shanklin return to give an itinerary via this route but I can't look up validity for a BZ6 ticket. Thanks in advance. :)
