At the moment you can use PAYG for journeys between St Pancras and Stratford International (£7.40 peak and £5.10 off-peak) whilst travelcards are not valid at all. Is it time to remove this anomaly and change the HS1 fares to be the same as as the regular Zone 1 to Zone 2 fare (£3.60 peak and...

Posts #1 - #15 originally in this thread. That's quite an interesting one not only for being a heck of a piece of flying (and an excellent example of using your knowledge to know when to skip checklists to manage workload and fly the plane!) but because they didn't pull the cockpit voice...

Does anyone know the status of the above line? I know that in previous years beyond Łupków it's been a summer only Saturday/Sunday service but having had a bit of a poke around I can't find any sign of any trains running beyond Zagórz at all let alone over the border. Has the line been closed...

Something odd going on here: https://www.lner.co.uk/news/additional-lner-services-for-play-off-final-now-on-sale/ So presumably anyone with a York to London Anytime Single is out of luck and cannot travel on these trains! All very odd. Are LNER basically operating this as a charter service...

Was looking at a journey tonight on the LNER website and it seems they've introduced a little pop-up warning that you're not selecting an LNER service if one is listed in the journey options. For instance I had a look at York to Kings Cross and selecting a Grand Central service produced this...

Having just gotten back from a trip in central(ish) Slovakia based in the Zvollen area and having a good time some long term planning has begun for a return trip probably some time in the first half of 2027. One question that does come to mind when thinking about at future trip is whether or not...

I noticed a grey box installed above all the seats on the Azuma I'm on this afternoon with the word "Sensative" on the side of the box. A bit of googling took me to this LinkedIn post...

Is it possible to see if a minimum interchange time has changed and if so when that change was made? I've got a split ticketed journey coming up (booked separately so no through itinerary) and I'm 99% certain I allowed the minimum interchange but I've just looked and my planned journey now fouls...

BBC News reporting this really tragic accident which happened on Sunday evening: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c4gjgxwn28go I would suggest that at this point it would not be appropriate to speculate too far on what might have caused this accident and we'll be better off waiting for the...

I couldn't immediately find a thread relating to this incident but the RAIB have now published a report into it today: https://www.gov.uk/government/news/report-022026-fatal-accident-at-ickenham-london-underground-station I feel like from a brief skim there's some similarities here to that...

Would someone be able to assist me in decoding this notation at the bottom of a Slovakian Railways timetable? The notes to the Slovakian Railways timetable can be found here (scroll down to find the English translation). I've been trying my best however I'm struggling somewhat but I think...

I was searching for something else this afternoon and stumbled across this page on NRE: https://www.nationalrail.co.uk/tickets-railcards-and-offers/buying-a-ticket/split-train-tickets/ I'm not sure how long it's been there (the Wayback Machine suggests maybe mid-2023?) but I was quite...

I recently stumbled upon the case of LNER's 1Y03 (0440 Newcastle to Kings Cross) which at Northallerton in the public timetable is shown as arriving at 0522 and departing at 0524 however if you consult the Working Timetable then it is shown as arriving at 0537 and departing 0539. It's actually...

With thanks to an informed source the following information has given to staff at a certain North of England TOC: (Infographic above has various stats and principles listed including that £377m market headroom exists in the North from pricing reform, RDG research finds 84% of customers...

Trainpal seems to be blanketing Social Media with various dubious adverts dressed up as "secret hacks" or "top tip" type videos whilst using accounts which, from their account name, appear to have no connection to TrainPal (but clearly must do). The tips and hacks are often themselves somewhat...

I've had a bit of time in NI recently and used a few NI Railways services (quite impressed to be honest, they have a very enlightened approach to ticket on departure explicitly allowing collection on board!) but I like to keep track of various details using Railmiles which includes headcodes...

One that I've wondered for a while (to the point I fear I may have asked it before, but can't remember the answer if I did!) but do TPE really stable a 185 overnight in Saltburn station on Saturday into Sunday? 1P89 arrives into Saltburn at 2257 on Saturday night. There's no ECS moves on RTT...

No, it's not April 1st even though it really feels like it ought to be... https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2025/08/15/jaguar-land-rover-dispute-rail-ticket-names/ Frankly this is perhaps one of the more absurd legal actions I can recall being taken by what might, until recently, have been...

Does anyone know if the 24-hour three zone ticket from MPK (see their website here) is valid on the SKA1 train to the airport from Krakow main station (or an intermediate station for that matter?). I'm not a 100% that it is as the MPK website makes reference to trams and buses not trains (apart...

Apparently a platform at Redcar East has been declared unsafe this morning and no trains are calling until further notice: (This is from Northern's Journey Check updated around 1030, doesn't appear to have made it onto NRE as yet) As trains are not calling in both directions I think it must...
