Hi, After some help, or to put an idea to bed! I have a commute from Wigan to Crewe, and have been looking at getting the train. However, I want it to be financially and time viable. Time passes, as the drive is 1-1.5 hours depending on traffic, but I think I’m failing on finance. Petrol...

I am currently researching fares for what promises to be an EPIC weekend touring the BrewDog bars of the North. I will probably come back to ask about the whole plan when it is finalised, however wondered if anyone could shed light on this oddity that's making me think I'm missing something...

I have just search for what I thought was a nice simple journey this weekend and NRE has confused me. Details: 4 people, 2 railcards (HMF). Preston to Blackpool North, out Sat at around 10am, back Sun around 11am. No preference for any train or class of travel. It only offers first class...

Hello all, I'm after a bit of advice for my wife who will soon be undertaking a weekly commute to Milton Keynes (MKC) from Preston (PRE) (out Mon am, back Fri pm). She has driven similar commutes in the past but is keen to avoid the M6 however possible. We're working on the fact that a return...

Hi all. I am planning on doing a bit of a round trip by rail, visiting a few pubs en route. Althoguh I have no real date in mind at the moment to help the questions I'm posing it'll be a Saturday (let's say Oct 18th), and the group will be 4 or 5 of us (maybe 2 railcards but best just to ignore...

I have a couple of questions about this route - one relating to a recent(ish) journey and another to a future journey. I travelled to Nottingham last year. Upon arrival at the station you have to pick a Via Banbury ticket (£86.50 - a couple of routes inc. Birmingham and Derby) or Via London...

Firstly thank you to all for the interesting and thought provoking discussion and advice in general on here. I have been trying to get my head round if there is a cheaper way of doing Winchester WIN -Todmorden TOD than a) being quick off the mark with advances (best case £74.20 return) or b)...
