Yes you just keep meandering to your destination stopping where you want. I have sometimes even caught a bus along the way and carried on.

I did this once a long time ago for one of my kids railcards. I had renewed the wrong card by mistake - an earlier one than the current. After a brief discussion on the phone it was all sorted out easily. Not sure it is helpful to keep many years of the same railcard visible on the web site with...

Maybe I am lucky but 2 hours from Stockport to London or 2 hours 45 from Furness Vale is only about £75 return off peak with railcard. Not so easy to beat that for the same journey.

I know the forum site is much better to book but free Club Avanti return tickets in premium and even once first class are hard to ignore.

Yes I figured as much but then how do I reserve seats on the train I want without more faff (my time, harder to book the specific type of seat the passengers prefer, also to choose the less sunny side of the train)

Today I try and book some off peak returns from Stockport to Euston on the Avanti web site. The screen layouts seem to have changed, initially it comes with a long list of trains and the single fare so no return available. I have to select two single tickets and proceed to the final selection...

What I mean is that comparing 1 and 2 people, quite a likely scenario. One day is 35/60 which is a saving for two, 2 days is 30/60 no saving for two, 3 days is 90/170 which is a saving for two, 4 days is 110/220 which again is no savimg for two.

In a pretty random manner it seems, 2 people 1 day or 3 days but not 2 days or 4 days seems bonkers.

For a railcard holder over 55 living in the West (Buxton Line) it is hard to find many scenarios where this ticket would be useful. The main advantage seems to be for multi day and early weekday use. Would be great to get a small Railcard discount say £5 which would be much more attractive.

Thanks for checking, I tried with a certficate checker web site and all is perfect. The problem was with EE Web Protect which I had turned on when I changed Broadband from BT. I switched off Web Protect and all working well.

I just get This site can’t provide a secure connection trainmap.co.uk sent an invalid response. Try running Windows Network Diagnostics. ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR

Except for one key difference it is flat :D.

Not Northern USB, they are very old power output and not really fit for purpose my Samsung S24 just about breaks even. 1779705061 I agree especially when hard to reach under the seat. I do happen to have a three pin plug plus USB cable but it is very rare I see anyone else using a charger.

Would that include Manchester Piccadilly to Victoria which is a fairly common route coming from South Manchester/Derbyshire and heading East across the pennines.

Quite a bit shorter going down from the station and over the River Goyt bridge. Almost in a straight line.

Not for me, just because a few people seem incapable of setting a remender on their phone or in a diary of the expiry date we sensible people have to select yet more information on a screen/phone/pc. Typical penalize the innocent strategy.

This is indeed very interesting, previously there was a two day ticket at a higher price. This seems to have gone. Last time I did the FFestiniog Round Robin coming from Furness Vale via Stockport it was a very long day and hard to plan. It did it anti clockwise which was the safest way.

Remarkably my lost and reported Oyster card has finally gone from TFL Go. This is after a couple of months.

I think the discussion is primarily about Oyster cards. They should remove the balance directly after being reported lost which did not happen and I had to make serveral phone calls because my refund was less than it should have been since the card was used 2 days after being reported. My lost...

Mine was not stopped either, took multiple calls to get the money refunded. Seems like a very nasty bug and I am surprised it has not been fixed yet since my incident was Nov 25th. Would also have been great if they had stopped the person and confiscated the card.
