Yes.
National Rail Enquiries don't sell tickets, they redirect you to the TOC to do so, so no. If there are ticket machines/a ticket office available at your origin station you'd be required to use those.
Did you miss the red banner at the top of the NRE page bearing the words "Industrial action"?
The 199 is my preferred transport - bus pass - but it is too unreliable on timing to be useful in meeting an appointment.You might instead need to consider using the half hourly 199 (High Peak) service bus.
Yes I did but looking now it does not say that there are no services on those dates
No. If for whatever reason trains do end up running you will be expected to produce a valid ticket if you have boarded at a station with an open ticket office or ticket machine (usual caveats apply).
So just get the 199 bus which is running half an hour earlier?
It doesn't matter which bus you get, the arrival time in Stockport is quite unpredictable.So just get the 199 bus which is running half an hour earlier?
