Last night we were sheduled to travel on the 21.15 Caledonian Sleeper from Euston to Fort William. We were in coach D, but coach D was out of service (and I can confirm that it was missing from the rake). So they moved us onto the 23.45 to Glasgow, and thence onto the 08.22 Scotrail service from...

I notice that LSL have trains scheduled in the public timetable for the next three days between Manchester and London. For example, http://timetablehistory.com/times.aspx?uid=U54686&date=20220915. National Rail shows them as valid on walkup tickets, and the redirect to Avanti seems to work OK.

We've noticed an anomaly on restriction VK (for example, Flint to Euston). OFF-PEAK R - FLINT to LONDON TERMINALS - BR Fares The restriction text says that the ticket isn't valid to arrive in Euston until 10.25. But the electronic restriction data is showing not valid to arrive before 10am. As...

I was alerted to this by a customer this morning. Look at the following fare: http://www.brfares.com/#faredetail?orig=BTN&dest=BDM&grpd=0410&ldn=1&tkt=SVR You can see that it includes the Maltese cross for a cross-London transfer. However, this ticket is available as both TOD and e-ticket...

Hi all, Just a heads up to day it looks like the NRS is down at the moment. TrainSplit won't work for anything that involves a lookup for advance fares. I'm sure it won't be long before they fix it, but everyone's in the same boat.

We're delighted to announce that we've opened up the long awaited TrainSplit v2 to members of this forum. You can find it at: https://new.trainsplit.com/ Powered by the new FastJP journey planner, it does things rather differently because it looks for alternative routes and change points...

I notice that Georgemas Junction, up in the far North, has been renamed to Georgemans Junction :o

I'm pleased to offer members of this forum exclusive early access to our new booking engine, TrainsCanBeCheaper, which now includes full ticket booking facilities. We use the FastJP journey planner which many of you will have been testing for a while now, but TrainsCanBeCheaper builds on this...

Good morning, all. We've noticed a problem with this morning's data feed and Disabled Persons Railcards. They don't appear to be applying the discount on NRE or any IPTIS based system. Presumably that will also be the case for other booking engines as they gradually all switch to the new...

Imagine I have a standard class ticket from Ledbury to Stafford, say an Anytime Return. What should be the excess payable to travel in first class? There's no first class fare defined. Obviously I could split tickets, but I'd like to try to do it on one ticket.

Could some kind person tell me the times of XC HSTs from either Penzance, Plymouth or Exeter heading North tomorrow, please? (the frequently requested thread is only valid up to the timetable change on the 10th). Thanks.

Today, I have an Off-Peak 1R ticket from Ledbury to London Terminals route Evesham. Normally the return portion of this ticket is not allowed on the 17:22 from Paddington. It's OK on the 18:22, and that's the train I was going to catch. However, I arrived at Paddington just after 5pm so...
