    Car Parking at Liverpool South Parkway and Newton-le-Willows

    I've never seen Headbolt Lane anywhere near full (it's massive) and not far from the M58 if you're coming from Wigan. Maghull North is usually full before 9am. Not parked in Maghull since Maghull North and Headbolt Lane opened but its a decent sized car park. If you're looking this way, out of...

    Merseyrail 777 introduction

    Yeah they're the ones. I guess its easier to change the announcements when there's no one needed to record them but can't say I'm a fan

    I've been using the Headbolt Lane line this week and the automated announcements have changed again compared to a week or two ago. A new voice doing the announcements about smoking/vaping and speaking to the TM if you need assistance

    Merseyrail Tap & Go

    I tapped in yesterday around 6.20am to 6.25am for a train departing in the peak at 6.30am, returned in the afternoon and have been charged for a daysaver rather than an anytime return, so it didn't pick up my next available train was in the peak.

    Merseyrail Tap & Go

    Never mind they've just taken the payment and emailed me, so it must be daily

    Merseyrail Tap & Go

    Ah ok...I (wrongly) assumed it would be like London where it charges you everyday and then stops taking money when you hit the cap

    Merseyrail Tap & Go

    Made my first return journey yesterday using it, it shows up in my journey history this morning but my bank card hasn't been authorised for the payment yet

    Merseyrail Tap & Go

    I've registered my interest although I don't travel every day, usually 3 times a week so might not be what they're looking for as won't reach the weekly cap

    Merseyrail Class 777 introduction updates

    The times I've been on them when there's been problems with the doors it's been because they've been seriously crowded and the step wouldn't retract, and the guard or driver has come on the PA and asked people to try and move away from the doors

    Avanti standard premium

    Thanks...I've gone through the upgrade process for the return journey now and the seat reservations for that leg change before making a payment so definitely seems to be a problem with the outward journey

    Avanti standard premium

    Can anyone help with this, I'm trying to upgrade two advances to standard premium on Avanti's app. When I go to the upgrade option and before clicking make payment, it still shows the existing standard class seat reservations and won't let me change them. So once you make the payment are those...

    Merseyrail Class 777 introduction updates

    Travelling 3 times a week to work, 25 mins each way since they were introduced on the Ormskirk line months ago and I've found the seats fine. I've just been down in London for a few days and found the Elizabeth Line seats a lot worse, ending up with a 'numb bum' a couple of times
