Ah good to know (though faintly bizarre). Thanks!

Is the Grantham to Nottingham line actually shut or are they just running some services on buses randomly? (Or is this a capacity addition thing?) I didn't realise trains were still running. NRE gave me a series of bus connections. The Settle trip looks lovely but the lack of first and the...

Hope this is the right forum for this. I'll be using an Eurail First pass for this journey, so can pretty much choose my route. Want to leave Glasgow around 7-8am on Saturday, aiming to reach Nottingham before 2.30pm. Routes I've found so far are: Down to Crewe on the WCML with Avanti (direct...

Thanks everyone, that's very helpful. Setting the NR site to avoid Basingstoke threw up a few advance fares via Barnham. Also an off-peak return of £29.35. About 20 minutes longer than the routes via Basingstoke which isn't terrible. The site's engine found a few other (but slightly longer)...

Looking either for a one-way, or a return. Outward tomorrow after noon, if I return it'd be Saturday 19th ideally mid-morning, but ok to arrive in London after 2pm. National Rail throws up for nearly every route it returns that it's unable to find fares. I don't understand why most wouldn't be...

Thanks - I had a look at a few but there's a chance I might have to high-tail it back to London quickly for work things so really want to carry everything with me.

Booked the sleeper. Thanks for the advice.

Darn, I'd hoped post-Easter things would be quieter. Good to know, thank you. Maybe the sleeper will be better then.

Happy Easter all. Next Sunday I want to move my stuff back to Scotland. I'll have three decently sized suitcases. (I'll have an interrail ticket and get to STP 10am Sunday.) Are trains up the ECML generally busy or quiet on Sundays these days? Been a long time since I've done the trip by rail...

That works pretty well - had not expected Shepperton to Clapham Junction and Shepperton to Croydon would be the same price... The Southern from London Victoria to Brighton stops at Clapham Junction and East Croydon (and that's it), so a £4.95 Anytime Day Single first leg and a £12.85 Super...

Thanks. That's GBP17.90 for the DaySave, right? Wondering if I could get a Thameslink train back to Gatwick, if I were to get a nonrestricted off-peak CDR from Clapham Junction... those seem to be GBP15.85 with a Network Railcard.

Hi all, and thanks for all the passive help I've had from here! I'm back to the UK for a visit, and a bit of a silly Saturday for me - want to go from Shepperton down to Brighton (ideally South West to Clapham Junction and then the fast(ish) Southern train) and later evening back up to...
