Just wondered what peoples thoughts were about it. I used it myself on Saturday afternoon for a 4pm flight and to say I was underwhelmed was an understatement. The new bit has essentially been bolted next to the old bit so the new check in area is next to the old one, and of course barely any...

Friend stick on a train, not bring given any info.

Just been speaking to my cousin on Facebook. He has just bought a 7 day season from Castleton to Ashton from the ticket office at Manchester Victoria (he had a ticket from Castleton to Man Vic anyway, dunno why but he wasnt travelling without a valid ticket) and is claiming he has been...

Replacement buses are in operation this Sunday and someone I know holds a bog standard Sheffield-Lincoln Open return and wants to try and avoid buses on his way back from Lincoln to Sheffield. Is this ticket valid to go Lincoln-Newark NG-Doncaster-Sheffield? If not, any ideas on how much the...

NRE saying that there is an "issue" at Fitzwilliam causing delays up to 60 minutes. Looks like the 1511 Cross Country departure from Leeds was cancelled and just ran from York to Sheffield direct instead but the 1611 didnt and that is showing as arriving into Wakefield in a few minutes Anyone...

Trying to find tickets for someone to do this journey on Friday 13th May around 10am, to return Monday 16th May around noon. No railcards Virgin is saying its a £61 flat fare and no Advances seem to be available, Trainsplit.com is suggesting the journey can be done for £46 but I cant see...

Is there an issue with the pound sign on the forum? Its displaying in some posts as "£" Very odd.

On the back of this thread, it got me thinking: do RPO's target the (percieved) more vulnerable customers using the rail network (such as females, the elderly?). Anyone encountered any evidence of this? In the example linked above, if the OP was a six foot nine rugby player, would it have...

Mentioned this in another thread but felt it worthy of its own. Early morning two HST EMT sets leave Leeds and travel to London St Pancras, the first one calling at Wakefield Westgate, Doncaster, Sheffield, and then usual MML stations to London St P. The second one does the same but goes...

Noticed this was on the NRE website before 5.30am so before any passenger service hit the area - anyone know what service (freight?) it was? Northern local stopping services terminating at Wakefield Westgate with a bus to Swinton XC services diverted (presumably via Doncaster without stopping)...

1611 from Leeds delayed at platform due to "safety checks". Leaves platform only a few mins before the 1640 departure and has now just left Wakefield a full hour down delaying everything behind it. Partner is sat on the 1640 doing his nut in, especially given he could have got the 1640...

During the day, Bradford Forster Square enjoys a twice hourly service to Leeds (calling at Frizinghall, Shipley and Leeds) However it seems the last one leaves Bradford at 1930 and this gets replaced thereafter by an hourly Bradford-Shipley shuttle, calling at Frizinghall in between. Given...

Trains cancelled and some delayed, Real Time Trains claims the 1604 departure out of Bradford Int hasnt even got to Accrington yet http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/Y30334/2015/06/19/advanced National Rail Enquiries makes reference to a "trespass".

http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/P54010/2015/06/16/advanced This has to be a mistake, surely? Whats it all about?

Friend of mine trying to get into work this morning, catches the 662 which subsequently breaks down. Driver calls for a replacement bus and common sense would dictate that he lets the passengers off to catch the next available bus. Oh no. Because the bus was TWENTY FEET away from the next...

0606 from Sheffield been stationary for ten mins after leaving Wakefield Kirkgate, only just been told they can proceed at slow speed due to "track issues". Weather affecting the line?

Was on the 1411 Blackpool North to York service yesterday and the train got into Burnley Manc Road at about 1510, two minutes before it was due to depart at 1512 according to the timetable. However it didnt hang around long, the doors closed and we were setting off as the clock on the platform...

0550 Sheffield-Leeds stopped at Barnsley, very very annoyed as the train was late getting out of Sheffield but wasn't told it was for an issue further down the line, could have gone via Dearne Valley to Leeds. Disruption only appeared on National Rail site around 0620. Friend now having to...

Because the route is priced by Northern I'm guessing there are no Advance fares on the route so I'm wondering if I can split it to save a bit on the £25.40 Anytime return? Want to travel around 11am on the Saturday 25th April and come back a similar time the day after, no railcards and I...

...but I'll ask it anyway. Am I able to travel from Bradford Interchange to Sheffield, and then Sheffield to Shipley two days later on an open return ticket? I assume the tickets from Bradford as sold as BRADFORD STNS in the same way they are in Manchester? And nothing stopping me stopping...
