Jenny, LM = London Midland, the train/station operator. Although I can see you have made a simple mistake due to not thinking it was wrong due to it being the same fare. Can you not have a word with the Student union to see if they can help, they might have had something like this...

Not sure if im picking this up wrong but if the OP bought a return at University and went into the 'other destinations' option and typed in Selly Oak is this not what you would be sold. The way im picking it up the OP bought a return ticket at university to Birmingham International but wanted...

cuccir - The reason the £7 fare only shows for Newcastle is because the competition i.e. megabus dose not stop at Durham. You can use the Newcastle ticket to Durham as long as you tell the driver you intend to get off at Durham, two reasons for this are if the service has no pickup or drop-offs...

Could the same not be said about the Tyne Tees day ranger. Its on the map as being valid Darlington to Northallerton Via Thornaby. Would someone without local knowledge know its not valid direct as a non stop train will not travel via Thornaby.

Old Timer - Although these incidents are very annoying you did the right thing and let it go. Im sure all members of this forum would rather see what you have said above and going about your usual daily routine today than sending messages from a hospital bed or even worse that you could never...

I have just bought two single tickets from Durham to Manchester through the Transpenninexpress/sale.co.uk web site, nothing strange there I guess..... But on the screen the price was £18.80 for two people with a disabled railcard discount, so guessing it was £9.40 each. Now my card has...

Forgive me if I look stupid here but .............. on the picture of the train with all those people hanging from it is that in service or is this picture posed. Would think some drivers would have a good laff at using the windscreen washers and wipers, and how many would you lose with a...

Is this yield management thing something along the lines of the following, Im guessing Im compleatly wrong here mind. You start with your total operating cost of the mode from A to B, for a figure I will say £1,000, then devide this cost by 50% of your total carrying capacity, I will say this...

This is what it returns for me with - London Euston to Inverness via Crewe, Carlisle and Edinburgh Waverley. Distance: 575mi 24ch - The requested route: London Euston, Camden Junction, Kilburn Up & Down Goods Loop, Queens Park (London) (WCML), Willesden West London Junction, Willesden North...

Not sure if this is the right place for this, sorry if its not. Is it possible to find any mileage's for the Tyne and Wear Metro system anywhere on-line? Thanks Ant

142094, Last time I passed through on Friday the barriers were Open but still had the posters up about being on test. The last I was told was back in october that the barriers would not be in operation until after the busy Holiday period. Will find out today if an exact date has been set and...

Just a few question's about how the barriers work. More towards the ones that dont keep your ticket but also one about the ones that do. If I travel from York to Newcastle at say 09:00 in the morning and arrive at Newcastle at around 10:00 if I then think I will stay on the platform for a...

Funny for this to come up, for legal reasons I will not say much about this but somewhere in the country at this pesent moment the police have forwarded a file to the CPS about a bus driver for imprisoning a passenger that wanted to get of the bus after purchasing one of the discount tickets...

Sorry Yorkie my fault, I wasnt very clear, what I was trying to say was buying tickets from another station like buying the Hartlepool to York of a split Sunderland to York at Sunderland not at Hartlepool. Anyway sorry for going off topic but I found a split yesterday I didnt know about...

91107- Can you not just buy the ticket at Crewe, I was under the impression you could buy tickets for any journey and not just from the station your at. Is this not how split ticketing works or do you have to get tickets from all the stations you split at.

I think this is relating to a penalty for not having a valid ticket. And the starting bit is for saying you started at B when you really travelled further from C, so your avoiding the payment between C and B, and trying to pay the fare from B to A only.

I can see whats wrong with buying a ticket from A to B and traveling to C. But I just cant get my head around what is wrong with buying a ticket from A to C and getting of at B.

Recived a file from a ITA meeting and it states that the DfT wants to up the penalty fare from £20 to £50. Anyone have any further info on this.

Tried to think of something logical to add to this thread but I cant think of a good example. One example that to me looks along the same lines is if I go into Macdonalds and only want a drink and burger I will buy a meal deal. With the meal deal I will also get fries this works out cheaper...
