    Is there a TOC-specific online journey planner?

    You could take the 1017 from Leeds all the way to Heysham and back to Lancaster and still make the 1420/1430 Lancaster/Carnforth Northern train to Grange.

    Darlington to Worksop Sat October 31.

    I found something similar for £31.50. Advances from Dalington to Sheffeld (£10.90) and Return (£14.20) and then a day return from Sheffield to Worksop (£6.40). I think Sheffield is relatively nicer to hang about at than Retford but tightish connections at Doncaster. Northern trains between...

    Robert Peston to leave the BBC.

    Lured by the big money at ITV and like many before him never to be heard of again. Fingers crossed.

    Virgin West Coast Bad managment

    One bad experience does not bad management make. Perhaps the title of the thread could have been "Poorly handled incident on Virgin West Coast". To contrast this, I was on the same train 2 days before. Everything went smoothly. We heard every announcement - twice. We were even offered...

    Non Arrival of Tickets

    Tried that only to receive a response to the effect that I should contact the sender and get them to try and sort it. Was a while back so things may have changed since.

    Non Arrival of Tickets

    It is LMs problem. RM will not listen to a complaint from the recipient so there is something LM can do. They can raise a complaint with RM.

    Changing @ Milton Keynes Central

    The next fast Virgin service from MKC to Coventry is at 1813, arr Coventry 1842. Might as well leave Leighton Buzzard at 1746 if aiming for that one.

    Kirkstall Forge & Apperley Bridge

    Can't see the point of the 949 following that route unless it actually goes Harrogate Road, Victoria Road, Norman Lane, Bank, Faltis Square...

    Changing @ Milton Keynes Central

    I think the 'evening peak' is more spread out on a Saturday.

    Changing @ Milton Keynes Central

    It's actually the 1725 from MK to Brum (it arrives at 1724) so you have an extra minute. If everything is on time, it's easily achievable especially if you're first up the stairs.
