Does anyone know what’s going on in the big old building across the track from platform 5 at Lancaster? Does it belong to the station?

This hasn’t happened yet today but it might if my next train gets any later so that I miss my final train, all on Advance split tickets. All paper tickets. Potential case in point: Scarborough to Manchester Victoria Advance - arrived on time and I nipped through the barriers, which retained my...

Just learnt that my booked 10:28 from Hereford to Chester today is cancelled. Trying to get to Liverpool/Southport. Does anyone know what if any ticket acceptance is in place (Advance ticket), or do I just have to go to the station and seek advice? 1785738632 Looks like the 12:28 is running so...

Journey today Paignton to Hereford Tickets Paignton to Cheltenham Spa Advance and Return portion of an Off Peak Return Cheltenham to Hereford. Journey went as follows: Paignton departed 10:14 XC Arrived Cheltenham Spa 12:52 (15 late) Departed Cheltenham Spa 13:01 (16 late) GWR Arrived Worcester...

I just booked a load of tickets through Trainsplit, but realised too late that I forgot to change the default e-tickets to paper tickets, and one of them is departing from Southport, which I don't believe (unless things have changed) accepts e-tickets on the barriers, although obviously...

Yesterday we had Advance tickets Blackpool North-Preston and Preston-Lancaster, and Off Peak Day Returns Lancaster-Morecambe. On arrival at Lancaster our onward train to Morecambe was showing as "Delayed" and after a while it was announced that it was cancelled. The next one should have been...

If the attached screenshot works, can anyone advise why the 11:53 from Taunton on 22/5 isn’t available to book in tandem with the 09:48 from Hereford on 18/5? Presumably it isn’t fully booked as it is available in tandem with other services from Hereford on 18/5? I have already booked my...

I just checked on Trainsplit for my journey later this morning from Carlisle to Dumfries on a Day Return, forgetting that Scotrail don’t have Peak prices these days - I wanted to see if I can get an earlier train than my originally planned 09:55 ex-CAR. All good as it’s the same price any time...

Just trying to submit claims to Trainsplit for cancelled trains due to the Glasgow Central situation. The photos I've taken on my iPhone and uploaded to my Mac look perfectly fine in my photos library, but when uploaded onto the claim form they become blurred and unreadable. Before I cut them...

On my Mac (using Safari) the bar at the top that allowed me to return to the old format seems to have disappeared, at least on my saved icon. Have managed to buy what I wanted in the old way on my iPhone, but disappointed that it seems we're now stuck with the newer interface, that personally I...

Today is exactly 12 weeks to Monday 11th May, and I know Trainsplit don't offer tickets beyond the 12 week horizon, so I just looked for my regular ticket from Hereford to Chester on the 10:28 direct train. To my surprise the cheapest(?) tier (which even so seems to be £2 dearer than on recent...

Apparently there’s a line side problem between Worcester Foregate Street and Shrub Hill, but that shouldn’t affect through BHM trains. Earlier today I checked RTT and saw that everything from HFD was terminating at WOF. However it now appears that the entire line is cancelled today. Luckily I...

Just wondering whether it would be technically possible to detach a coach from each of the 11 car sets and attach it to the 9s, so that all sets would have 10 coaches, with one and a half unreserved? Would make more sense than the current lottery.

Just been on a Holyhead train, I boarded at Colwyn Bay and it was all chaos on the train and platform. Guard been assaulted apparently, the police have got him - I never saw them at the station but good result. Guard very shaken up but will be okay thank goodness. I hope the culprit gets a...

Firstly, I can’t work out how to attach a screenshot on my iPhone so please could someone advise me of that for future reference? I am looking at tickets for today for Preston to Liverpool Lime Street, and the 12:55 is shaded pink and has a little “-“ sign in a circle above the price, and won’t...

I was on the 16:07 Avanti (Edinburgh service) from Birmingham New Street today, which arrived at Wigan North Western nine minutes late, at 17:45 instead of 17:36. I would still have made the 17:52 Southport train from Wallgate, but that too was delayed and I ended up arriving at my destination...

According to Trainsplit, also RTT... How can this be correct? Surely either the line is closed or it isn't? Seems to be the Leeds services that aren't buses, unless the information is misleading and it's trains between Leeds and Lancaster then buses from there?

I was booked on the 10:02 from Scarborough to Beverley which was cancelled due to a fatality in the Cottingham area. I’m now on the 11:02, which I can assure was still in the platform at Scarborough at 11:12 and finally departed about 11:15. Trying to find out what time I will arrive at...

Looks like rail services suspended at least until close of play tonight. We're heading for Tenby tomorrow morning, apparently there's limited to none RRBs so I'm trying to find out the situation and whether it's likely to be cleared by then. Any TfW employees in a position to advise please...

Moderator note: Split from https://www.railforums.co.uk/threads/awc-derailment-at-shap-summit-03-11-25.294230/ Does Avanti have spare sets, or will various services for the rest of the country be compromised while this one is repaired? I presume so, as they will have trains out of service for...
