Afternoon All.

I used the new service from st pancras on monday to find i couldnt use Priv on it... are SE allowed to do this and will it be valid when the full timetable comes in to force?

Thanks,

Adam

Yes, this has been publicised on the front page of the RST website for a number of months now. With regards to any changes in the future, nobody knows but the answer is maybe: "as the trial running period progresses this restriction may be reviewed, but any change will be at Southeastern’s discretion."

See http://www.atoc.org/rst/_download/special_offer/Web_HS1_230609.pdf for more information.

Hope this helps

Apologies for my lack of knowledge but what does priv mean in this context?

And what was the Javelin like ? I come from that neck of the woods and am interested to know whether it's worth the extra dosh.

Privilege rate travel, i.e. discounted travel for staff*.

*And anyone else eligible - e.g. partners/dependent children/housekeepers of staff.
