1. By buying through your company's corporate scheme your company has secured a discount on your behalf - perhaps through the easit discount, as @CyrusWuff mentions - but the way that discount is applied to the ticket is not something that would typically be authorised in ticket offices, so...

The easement would apply if travel via Horsham were permitted, unfortunately, for Billingshurst, travel via Horsham as a routeing point for travel to Brighton is NOT allowed under the fares check rule.

Presumably the 2U might originally have been to prevent use on the Caledonian Sleeper at Preston (setting aside the viability of that connection in the current timetable).

Thanks Hadders, hopefully some folk here got some use from a bit of live reporting. Many unpleasant tales stories arose from those joining our train at Guildford (having taken the bus across from Gatwick), so I can only sympathise with those caught in the immediate chaos of the line closure at...

Some observations (was on the 16:00 Brighton - Havant and now on the 17:50 Havant - Waterloo, aiming for Leeds tonight)... Brighton station staff were very clear that Havant was the only option for getting north of Gatwick The coastway service was very busy but not completely packed, although I...

Indeed, and the bus operators sometimes use the three different route description structures differently, e.g: <Routes><Route><Description>... is used to give the [Locality] level description, e.g. St. Andrews - Dundee <Services><StandardService><Origin> and <Destination> are used to give a...

Having had to do the trip on a few occasions, it's helpful to know if I've got time in Ryde before catching the train to Pier Head, or needing to leave time to walk up the Pier.

Mild suspicion that the fosswallet app doesn't have the necessary public keys available to hand? Or potentially trying to use a public key but not the right public key? The developer of intertube has some interesting insight from trying to reverse-engineer the barcode payloads:

Tangentially related, but it seems Google Maps now has live bus locations, wonder if this might be something that could be used on-bus in future when using the journey planner.

Looks pretty similar to Dartline? Go-Ahead use a variety of designs - e.g. Pulhams is different to this and the Passenger designs. As @duncombec mentions, this is merely continuing the existing arrangement. True, and I'm guessing part of the fun is demonstrably not undermining Go Coach and...

Indeed, still exists, slightly different terms to the pass available to B&H and Metrobus staff.

I'll note that the regulations have only come into force for vehicles which didn't previously have a system fitted which is deemed to be partially compliant. Any vehicle that is deemed to be partially compliant is exempt from the full force of the regulations until October 1st 2031.

As a user of the 6 I will NIMBY that suggestion - utterly reckless, and you'd get no end of grief from Sainsburys and those in the shadow of the Foredown Tower. Likewise short-stopping the 49 - you'd be surprised how busy those get, especially when the 2s snarl up further west. I'm curious to...

Looks like an issue at source with Ticketer, as most of the bus companies' apps and a few other sources weren't showing live times or tracking. Seems to be resolved now though.

As it sounds like your invitation letter hasn't given clear and specific instructions to go anywhere else, then the Station Reception is the correct place to go. Directly to the right of Leon (as you're looking at Leon) there's some glass doors under a sign for the "West Side Offices". Google...

I once did Bangor (Gwynedd) to London Euston in 1st, including breakfast, with no actual ticket check. I was in possession of one, I just think it slipped off the list of things to be done. This was around 2008, mind, so a while back. Also did an ICE from Salzburg to Vienna the slow way (via...

As I use the 1A a fair amount, and seeing this in the context of the coming orders for the new electrics for the 7s, and the still-not-great reliability on the 6s and 49s, I'll take the better journey times in exchange for a bit of a walk to a different bus stop. There's definitely demand, and...

I would second considering the AirBnB (or alternative) option - it's occasionally useful if you're doing that kind of supercommute to not have the faff, even if it's only once in a blue moon. Also, do try the coach option at least once, it can be a lot more comfortable (speaking as someone who...

Probably because the EL contract involves maintenance of the track, signalling, and tunnel between Old Oak Common & Abbey Wood / Stratford. Sumitomo does railway infrastructure construction and maintenance in east Asia, North America, and India. Same reason Amey (and Atkins on DLR) are involved...

Setting aside the excellent exploration of this particular journey's options, I'd just like to, highlight this chain of glorious incompetence by 'the railway', and state my high respect to all on this thread for not stooping to this low-hanging fruit and instead answering the OP's question...
