    Ticket Machines sometimes charging weeks later?

    I couldn't find a better forum for this, and it's to do with buying tickets, but it's not specifically about fares. Over the past month or so, I've been getting really weird charges for some of my tickets when buying on my Debit Card from Guildford train station's automated machines. I buy...

    KCSP Lift Locations

    I had a ticket marked with a dagger. As I understand it, those are only valid on Tube, DLR and Thameslink. To recap how my day went: I got off the train at Paddington and tried to use the lift over by platform 1 to get to the tube platform. It was out of order, so I had to carry my stuff...

    KCSP Lift Locations

    Thanks very much guys, that helps me know what to look out for next time! I wish there was a proper public floorplan (like http://www.networkrail.co.uk/documents/For%20Passengers/Station%20Maps/4509_Paddington%20Station%20Map.pdf) for these things, but other people's expertise is fine too!

    KCSP Lift Locations

    I am well aware of maps such as http://www.flickr.com/photos/24772733@N05/4145440850/ for indicating lifts in the King's Cross St Pancras Underground Station. However, I've never actually been able to locate the actual lifts. I am making a journey on the London Underground on Thursday...

    Timetable Changes and Advance Tickets

    I know that 0726 is the time it is due to depart. However, when I purchased them, 0722 was listed as the time of departure, as per emails from when I booked the tickets, and even the mandatory reservation coupons say 0722 on them. Hence, I was interested to see in other, more extreme...

    Timetable Changes and Advance Tickets

    We bought some tickets last month for use on 19 Apr for EXD - WAT. The tickets are for the 0722-1049 service, but reading the National Rail Enquiries, there is a 0726-1049 service instead. I know this is only a few minutes different, and I'm sure it's the same service and we'll have no...

    Booked Train Only?

    Wow, thanks for all the replies. And sorry, I didn't realise this was such a debated topic. I just have one more thing to throw in. I just looked at individual KGX-CBG tickets and the only ones you can buy are Anytime Day Singles for Standard or First. Does this mean that the KGX-CBG and...

    Booked Train Only?

    So from this discussion I've gleaned: I need to be on EXD-PAD, but I can use any xx15/xx45/xx52 train for the KGX-CBG part of my journey of "AP LONDN READING/BOOKDTRAINONLY". Thanks! If I take a return, I assume the same to be true, I can use any earlier train for CBG-KGX to ensure I don't...

    Booked Train Only?

    Hi, little bit confused/interested about my ticket. I have a ticket EXD-CBG, validity 'BOOKDTRAINONLY'. When I bought it online, it broke it up into train journeys EXD-PAD and KGX-CBG, with a tube journey in the middle (included on the ticket with the dagger symbol). I noticed that with it, I...
