Tried to get back from St Neots to London last night leaving around 21:00 but everything from 18:18 until 23:18 inclusive was cancelled (Source = Real Time Trains). Given reason (on National Rail/CIS screens) was the damage to overhead wires which was on the Midland Main Line. Did the Thameslink...

A friend of mine is getting his first Oyster Card for Safeguarded Priv travel on London Underground/DLR etc. He'll have the completed form issued by Rail Staff Travel and he hopes to get all it sorted out at Euston after arriving in. Once he's bought the card (think is about £10 + some credit)...

Not too long before I get one of these and trying to hunt down to see if there is any formal list of bus operators and / or specific routes the pass is excluded on. One friend of mine (whose made over 1,000 journeys with his) says he's had problems in the West Midlands and Greater Manchester. I...

With today's announcement about another expansion of contactless PAYG in SE England, was wondering who best to contact regarding the inability to use these discounts with a National Railcard. As it's multi-TOC there's no point directing at one in my opinion. They are just being told what to do...

In this case not strictly a National Railcard, but Safeguarded Rail Staff "Priv" reduction loaded on by a member of staff at an Underground Station. The principle is basically the same with the card details loaded on with an expiry date and number after renewing. 14 June: Reduction put on by...

Need to make a trip tomorrow from London to visit a relative in Stoke Mandeville hospital. Redline's route 300 offers the best connections with the train from and back to London. Redline not picking up the phone regarding ticketing. Regarding ticketing, according to the PlusBus site, Redline...

Am planning to buy this Tyne and Wear Day Rover through the Stagecoach app. I'm assuming it generates a barcode? In that case, how does it operate the T&W Metro ticket gates as I thought they were like ones on London Underground - i.e. paper tickets and card readers? If the same product is sold...

Announcement from a few days ago saying Jetstream are ceasing to operate this link from 31 March 2024 https://www.jetstreamtours.com/about-us/news Besides ferry only passengers, there are through rail ferry tickets available (eg Southend to Dartford). Wonder if c2c and Southeastern will...

Bit of a stab in the dark, but wondering if anyone has ever ventured into the suburbs of Winnipeg MB to photograph freight trains? I'll be there for several days in September in between travelling across the country by rail plus a side trip up to Churchill. I won't have a car but there looks to...

Does anyone know why this tunnel is only single tracked? I can only assume it was to keep structural costs down when it was built before the airport station opened in the early 1990s. I travel regularly in and out and when services are on time that doesn't cause much of a problem. Complex...

Any TfL experts able to help. I hope this was just staff not knowing about ticket validity. Here goes.... I travel to and from work between Farringdon and Tottenham Hale via Liverpool Street using a residential pass. This is issued by Rail Staff Travel, part of Rail Delivery Group. My route...

Does anyone know if or when this preserved railway are intending to run this season? Website still says closed (except for their café) and their Facebook page hinted a few weeks back about crew refresher days. Time ticking on and want to tie them in with a few others (Strathspey, Keith...

Not sure if this is class 800 related or not. Looking at Sunday 20 June, 08:51 Paddington-Penzance going as far as Plymouth. Really need to be there as early as possible. On National Rail, search trains come up with no fares, later ones have Advance tickets. On GWR's site, you can select a Super...

Hello. Does anyone have the distance (in miles and chains) of the line between Selby and York which was closed in 1983 after the diversionary route was opened please? Thanks Phil

Is there any site or access to Working Timetables showing the headcodes for passenger trains in Northern Ireland please? Thanks Phil

Quick question. Is there any catering outlet like Pumpkin Café on a weekday in time to grab something before the 07:02 departure for Wick? Many thanks in advance, Phil

Some sharp eyed follower of mine on Flickr spotted that one of my photos on my Flickr pages has been downloaded and uploaded to his. Uncredited of course. Have of course taken the necessary steps to have this reported. And trawling through some of the albums he's quite prolific at the...

Operated by Thalys but with much lower fares. The "downside" is the journey time is extended as it takes the classic line between Paris and the Lille area presumably because of lack of paths: https://www.izy.com/en/homepage Phil
