    Seatfrog price increase

    Just seen (via a misleading IMHO advert trying to make it look attractive, doesn't mention it's just the upgrade price) that Seatfrog upgrades Euston to Glasgow are now £55 (£58 Inc the - ahem - "platform fee"). Bye bye :(

    Timetable poster replacement

    To my mind farcical new "timetable" posters on the H&C/Circle (not sure if elsewhere). They have removed the first and last trains etc and replaced with a QR code. As this new poster takes up exactly the same space... WHY!!!??? (To eventually get rid altogether and sell as advertising space...?)

    Last tube cancelled

    Hi, Anybody know what you are or aren't entitled to when the last tube is cancelled? This just happened to me for the first time ever and the "customer service" was non-existent at best and hostile and rude at worst. Firstly, lied to (that it had gone) and just told to leave the platform and...

    Gold Card discount applied in error?

    Hi there, I bought split tickets for a return journey from Paddington to Exeter St. Davids. The site I used split at Reading and I have a Gold Card so I added that when searching. It appears that it has applied the Gold Card discount to both the PAD to Reading and the Reading to EXD tickets, the...

    ScotRail trips advice please

    Hi there, Got a potentially large amount of ScotRail journeys to make. Schedule potentially something like this. Are there any rovers etc or other tickets that would bring the price down please? I'm thinking the Strathclyde Roundabout for most of this would help? I have a Club 50 Railcard...

    DB changed train time to earlier

    Hello, First time travel on DB coming up. Somewhat surprised to receive an email from DB today informing me that my 13:02 departure from Munich to Stuttgart on 15th August has been changed to a 12:28 departure. (I bought the First Class advance ticket back in February). I'm not entirely happy...

    LNWR Super Off-Peak

    Hi there, I just got "let off" having to pay an excess on a Super-Off Peak single from Stafford to Euston which was sold to me with an 18.32 departure time because the time was on the ticket. Having just checked on their website it would appear it was perfectly valid anyway, arrival time 20.39...

    DB Munich to Stuttgart Airport

    Planning journey in the Summer Munich to Stuttgart Airport (as the return flights to London that day are too expensive from Munich). Actually rather pleased as I would have loved to have done the whole return journey by train but don't have the time for sure. Unfamiliar with the German railway...

    Euston Ticket Office

    Hi there, I need to buy a last-minute Railcard early on Monday morning before 06:30 for use on an Avanti train from Euston. I have a Gold Card, thus entitling me to buy it for £10 in person, hence not buying it online. (Also, the person it is for would need a physical one to travel with anyway)...

    PlusBus railcard validity

    Hi there, If two people travel from A to B, one with a Senior Railcard and one with no Railcard discount (before 09:30) can they use a Two Together to buy two discounted PlusBus tickets at the destination (reached after 09:30) - or only the one with a Senior Railcard? Thanks :)

    "London Thameslink"/EMR

    Hi there, Can I have your advice please...? Want to travel from Blackfriars to Bedford on a direct Thameslink train around 18:00 weekday but return on the 23:04 from Bedford to St. Pancras EMR service.

    Avanti West Coast Automated Delay Repay/Customer Service

    Hi there, Perhaps a warning for those signed up... I was delayed for about 3-4 minutes short of an hour (frustratingly!) from Glasgow Central to Euston on Fri 6/10/23. Nevertheless due 50% back. Unlike previous delayed journey with them, Automated Delay Repay did not kick in and I have had to...

    RTV validity for PlusBus

    Hi there, Had a Rail Travel Voucher literally chucked back at me today at Glasgow Central when trying to use it as part payment for a PlusBus ticket. I didn't hear an explanation and asked if I could use it and was just told "no". Assume this was because it is a bus ticket though not sure that...

    Why different changing stations on different websites?

    Hi there, Just curious... For a journey on a Friday 17.40 from North Queensferry to Euston, the LNER website gives changes at Haymarket & Carlisle. For the same journey, the Avanti website gives the changes at Haymarket & Lancaster. It seems strange that the own website of a train operator...

    Compliment query

    Hi, I (we) was given some exceptional service recently. I'd very much like to compliment the crews responsible but am actually worried that I might get them into bother! (Basically we had to board with a ramp in First Class due to a mobility issue and I asked if we could please stay until the...
