Neither winter 61 nor summer 63 (on timetableworld.com) show this, though I think the accelerated ACE beat almost all the GW expresses. Agree

Pedantically, according to W---p---- the building extension dates from 1937, which agrees with my memory (second-hand of course, I'm not that old!).

The only ICE set that would fit would be a 402/ICE2. A CJ set would be plausible though they are 9 not 7 cars.

I am not sure how this relates to your original problem, which was that you travelled without a valid ticket and then attempted to short-fare. RR1 I believe flags up suspicious refunds - nothing more. You don't say that you have had a warning mail from Trainline which seems to be the next...

The shortest journey time will involve a sleeper - I will leave you to play with the DB/OeBB journey planner which will show various options including the Zurich-Graz sleeper.. The price to undercut is £270-odd for a 4-day (adult, 2nd class) Interrail plus Eurostar supplement - which of course...

Why not use the route of the old Midland line which seems to be less obstructed? :)

Does this still have passenger services? It isn't I the DB database, and the only passenger ferry seems to be to Rønne ....is now useless for ferry connections as it is outside North end of the secure area while the ferry terminal is at the South end. 10 years or so ago some buses from...

I am afraid it is difficult to respond in detail to an upload (especially if it is handwritten). Please could you type your draft and post it here for suggestions. You can then print the final version on a separate sheet, including the case reference, and attach it to the response form. Just...

From Madrid I would catch the AVE to Narbonne, certainly with a pass. You could comfortably make that with an overnight at Merida (or Badajoz, but M would be more interesting).

So the fencing was added because of the rail bikes - which confirms my view.

Or Stewarts Lane. It isn't feasible because of the post 2018 TL timetable; it isn't necessary either because there is ample capacity through LBG for contra-flow traffic. The pre-covid peak service into/out of Cannon St. wasn't significantly thinner than in the 80s-90s except on the...

I can see 3-wire fencing and fence posts in that picture. Admittedly UK practice would require tubular steel handrails.

You can claim back the cost of your ticket anyway, but in the circumstances I would insist on their refunding the taxi fare.

Search for posts on here by member Hadders who regularly suggests some points to make in your apology. Fortunately GTR are consistently willing to agree to settle out of court, but you should be prepared to pay the full single fare for each time they identify when you have cheated, plus an...

Didn't the Poole start when Plymouth traffic was falling off? My guess is that the loco from Reading returned on one of the day trains, so it was operationally simple and therefore economical (as necessary in those days as now).

Historically the Goole trains all ran to Wakefield as it was ex L&Y - there's probably more demand for Goole-Wakefield than -Castleford but it's 10min slower to Leeds. Quite. The only efficient way I can see (1 unit, 2 hourly both routes) involves trains going out via Castleford but returning...

Yes It will join the Fast line at Woolmer Green which is a high-speed connection.

My guess is that the OP had a through ticket because they were claiming it back (and by implication has done so as a matter of routine).

Returning to the OP's concerns: GTR will almost always agree to settle without involving the courts, and if the OP hasn't come to their attention before, the likely outcome is payment of the Anytime Single fare for the journey plus an admin charge which seems to be at least £60.

Without more info it's not possible to identify the train, but I remember the 2tpd service as being typically 31+4. The present (booked) mix of 2- 3- and 4-car workings is generally adequate, though the 0920 SO ex Leeds can be somewhat cosy IME as it is a 3-car. (5-car workings appeared a few...
