    Manchester - London on TfW and LMR

    I appreciate that there is a huge range of tickets available for travel across the network but it just always infuriates me that some gate line staff just see the words off peak and refuse perfectly valid tickets because its not 9.30am yet.

    LNER e-ticket barcode

    Hi, Just wanted to get confirmation on something, I already asked LNER if it's okay to buy an e-ticket and send it to a friend to use which it is but they haven't got back to me on my second question and this definitely the right place for any advice!
