    Manchester airport to/from Sheffield

    I noticed one of options for this is a bus to or from Stockport, with TPE. Is it a reasonable connection or is it better to do a cross platform change (13-14) at Piccadilly with the train. Is the reason for the bus to reduce congestion at Piccadilly?

    Delay repay Abergavenny to Taunton

    Today's journey from Abergavenny 1805 to Taunton 2020 was delayed. As I caught the slower GWR from Bristol TM I arrived Taunton at 2110, rather than 2040 on the delayed XC. I got the GWR at Bristol as it came in before the XC and had seats. Would it be worth me claiming Dealy Repay?

    Bordeaux minimum connection time

    On Easter Saturday we'll be arriving in Bordeaux on the TGV from Paris at 1714. Then the slow train to Bayonne at 1719 if it's doable, or 1845 if not. What are the chances of making the 5 minute connection? We have interrail so booked on the TGV and can be flexible on the onward train.

    TFW first class tickets

    I'm not seeing any 1st class tickets for Stockport to Abergavenny this Saturday 16th. Are they not offering these as they can't be sure trains with 1st class will run. Is the best idea to buy standard and upgrade? Looking at departing Stockport at 1340 1440 or 1540.

    Delay claim difficulty with Transport for Wales

    For a journey at 1702 Abergavenny to Frome on Friday 31/3/23 the tfw planner suggested 1702-2001. The delay claim site gives a journey 1702-2049 with a 1h23min wait at Bristol Parkway. I was delayed as the 1702 arrived in Newport 20 minutes or so late, missing the 1741 connection to Westbury...

    Advance ticket following Eurostar arrival

    I'm travelling from Paris to St Pancras and then onto south Wales with GWR. Would an advance ticket be valid on a later service if the Eurostar arrival is delayed? I have booked the Eurostar so a through ticket is not an option.

    Heart of Wales Rover

    I know doubling back isn't allowed but as the ticket is valid to Shrewsbury is doubling back allowed between Shrewsbury/Church Stretten & Craven Arms? Or is this only allowed when purchased from Shrewsbury or Church Stretten to get you back to your origin station. I'd like to go Abergavenny...
