    Eurostar viewing location

    Evening, where would you recommend close to London as somewhere I can read off Eurostar / Javelin numbers and preferably also see freight / c2c / SE units (less need to be close enough to read as I can use RTT). I thought Barking was perfect until I realised HS1 was underground there :s

    RST Online Leisure Card

    Hi, I've just got my first RST Online Leisure card - when looking to book a trip for tomorrow, I can select an Anytime return, but have to choose a specific journey time.
