    Introduction of European Entry-Exit Scheme (EES)

    Last two times I’ve had to use the machines they struggled to do a facial scan and get fingerprints so I was sent to an agent instead.

    Hot weather off-peak semi-fast Met trains

    Yeah, pretty much. It’s fab to have the option though and I often will take it just to break the routine a bit. If the Met in suspended, everyone has the same idea to use Chiltern services so I will often just go Wealdstone and take the fast service into Euston, which at peak can be every 15...

    Hot weather off-peak semi-fast Met trains

    i don’t think the time savings have ever been that great. Probably 2-3 for northbound services from Finchley Rd to Harrow and 3-4 for southbound services leaving Harrow. Due to the SSR signalling upgrade, the fast and semi fast trains at present also need to stop in the Preston area. So the...

    Freedom Pass Inspection Curiosity Question

    The last two times I’ve had to show a valid ticket to TFL staff onboard a train, none of them requested to see the photo on my freedom pass. Separately I’ve also walked through barriers (after tapping) and RPI staff did not ask me to show the photo. Similarly for the three times I had tickets...

    I imagine the situation at Kings Cross will only worsen when Virgin start international travel there.

    Veterans Railcard eligibility

    It seems ambiguous to me and the clause can be a standalone phrase or indeed applied to only that part.

    S Stock feels dated despite age

    Their air cooling systems seem pretty poor this year compared to the Elizabeth line. Do they need maintenance?

    TfL issues 69,000 penalty fares as fare evasion crackdown intensifies

    Harrow on the hill is a hotspot. They may as well just hire a member of staff to be placed there permanently to spot fare dodging and issue fines.

    Broken again. An absolute joke. Does no one on this thread have any knowledge of what on earth is going wrong with the bus stop in Pinner?

    Disabled Bus Pass, are drivers more lenient when they don’t scan

    Yeah, I was a bit confused regarding what was meant by the ”companion part of disabled passes” too. The ECNTS generally does not have one as far as I know, so any that did would be an additional benefit offered by the particular council that issued it.
