Oddly, also at East Croydon on TL in early 2000s (around the time of the start of the war in Afghanistan, which has a bit of relevance), a colleague of mine at the time had travelled down to work from Bedford. He landed up leaving some papers on the seat next to his. Realised in time, and stuck...

I'm going to be travelling from Caterham to Oxford on a Saturday next month. I decided to search (using a well known site) for fares via Purley, Redhill and the N Downs line to Reading as fancied a different route home. I put in Redhill as a via for the search and amongst the results got this...

Sorry - quite right - it was a RDG->WIM (which does give a valid journey via Basingstoke and Clapham Junction on the GWR journey planner) - muddled myself in typing it out! Ah great thanks - so if I can find a valid route on the planner for a single (eg Oxf -> Wim), then the route should be...

I made a journey from Oxford on a 1-6 off peak travelcard last week - I needed to get to Wimbledon (and needed to get there as soon as possible as couldn't risk being late the other end). Travelcard needed for later in the day. Out of habit, I looked up the quickest route using fastjp, and got...

On a GWR from OXF to PAD one evening, I sat opposite a lady who was sat at a table with a fairly young lamb sat in an open topped cardboard box next to her. (Apparently rejected by its mother, she was taking it home to her house in London from the farm she was doing work experience on!)

Whereas similarly, we had bailiff letters and phonecalls after moving into our property. It only took me giving the callers the details of the seller's solicitors and date of completion to get them off our back. There should be no obligation to spend cash to prove who you are in this...

Hmm, possibly - I'd read that as "public transport that connects to an international departure that starts abroad" (given the header of the section). Minefield. Don't think HOTNAT policy applies - it doesn't appear to include the SNCF Intercité services, and Austerlitz isn't listed in the Paris...

From one randomly plucked out (Admiral here, but a lot are similarly underwritten) - screenshot attached - sorry, the text is poorly formatted when copied. So - miss the outbound: then covered (but even then I need to try to claim from the travel company first). If for some reason I miss the...

Ah - Ok - that makes a bit of sense. I'd already got the Eurostar ticket, not 100% knowing where I'd need to get to but knowing that that was the E* I needed (taking a bike on the E* so needed to make sure there was space! In fact, I'm not sure I could get it to output a through journey at the...

There are yes - but does this allow me protection for onward connections? I'd read https://help.loco2.com/article/477-understanding-civ and it appeared to indicate that while I get allowance for the first missed connection, a subsequent missed connection wouldn't be covered: "For journeys with...

I'm looking for some suggestions for travel insurance for a trip that I have coming up - I have a one way trip to hook up with the rest of my family (returning by car a few weeks later) which looks like: SWI 07:02-> PAD 08:07 PAD -> STP (tube) STP 09:24BST -> Paris Nord 12:47CET Paris Nord ->...

(First time poster; hi!) FWIW, The GWR app had a similar issue last year to this last August, so clearly not limited to LNER's implementation of timezone handling. When in France, I booked an advance ticket for a journey from Bristol to Tiverton as part of a split, and landed up with a train...
