Can’t help you with the actual start date but when I moved down that way in 2007 the Prestonpans starter ran then and was at 0808

This is possibly a silly question but why even bother pushing it through? two rounds of here’s what you could have had.

Probably doable at the moment as the shuttle is still half hourly. If it were to go back to every fifteen minutes though it would be more of a problem

Yeah there have been a few short forms in recent weeks that have made the local newspaper with instances of people being left at Prestonpans so not a hope of get on or off at Wallyford and Musselburgh. Complaints about the 0753 off North Berwick are common but they have intensified over...

Pretty sure this service ran pre-covid. There was definitely a Prestonpans starter back then due to the chronic overcrowding on the North Berwick service that was usually at the back of it. The Blindwells development has increased usage but there has been overcrowding issues forever there...

Just had the email of doom telling me my train is cancelled tomorrow. It's running as far as Preston but a quick glance at the website shows two of the three Southbound departures tomorrow between 0900 and 1030have been canned. I think I'll just wait in Edinburgh and get the next one as...

Wednesday and Thursday were the only days last week that the 0652 managed to do the full journey. It either started or terminated at Preston Monday, Tuesday and Friday. I'm on it on Thursday and can't say I'm looking forward to it at the moment.

No both codes are separate and one doesn’t need to be used before the other. I used my 1st one before the SP

How long after your 21st journey do you have to wait for the free first class code?

The problem with dropping Edinburgh is Transpennine are also cancelling several services most days and I’d imagine that’s why it’s not been canned. One bad service is covering for another bad service.

Daft question but does the clock start when you enrol in gathering your eight journeys Or are previous journeys so far this year included? im probably missing something but the details on things like this seem a bit sketchy

Isn't there already a big M&S food hall in Union Square albeit at the opposite end of the centre.

Possibly me but I’ve not had a great experience today and haven’t even been on an EL train. I’m in London for a few days and staying at Canning Town. Quite fancied bagging one of the limited edition Oyster cards so decided to take a quick hop on the DLR to Custom House. DLR arrived there...

I was due to travel from Glasgow on Sunday for a day out to Carlisle. When booking I had originally planned to travel on the service an hour later but when looking at the seat selector it looked really busy so opted for the earlier one as it was the same price and was looking a good bit...

Thanks. Is the the £10 amendment charge applicable though is I suppose my big question. If it’s only available for tickets issued by Avanti directly I’m as well writing them off but if I can change them without fee it’s worth doing. Thanks
