Our new ticketing site is now live! Using either this or the original site (both powered by TrainSplit) helps support the running of the forum with every ticket purchase! Find out more and ask any questions/give us feedback in this thread!
Not that I am aware of. Telesales might do it if you need it in advance, otherwise it'll be a trip to a booking office (Southern TVMs also sell BZ tickets).
Of course if trains stop at the "boundary" station then you can just buy a ticket from there.
We are aware of an issue with emails from the Forum to Microsoft-based email accounts (hotmail/outlook/live.com email addresses). This is being looked into currently, thanks for your patience meanwhile.
