    Excessing ticket

    Have spoken to someone in the office and they are happy to pay what would be the cost to go to Leeds and then I can just get a ticket direct London - Edinburgh

    Excessing ticket

    Due to a change of plans I will now not be going to Exeter. I'm thinking of buying a standard off peak return from Leeds to London on the Tuesday. I will now head to Edinburgh on the Tuesday evening direct from London, I think I might be able to excess the ticket from Doncaster onwards as this...

    Excessing ticket

    Hi, I need a bit of advice about whether I can excess a ticket and therefore save myself some money. I have a meeting in London on Tuesday afternoon and the company I am visiting will pay for my return ticket from Leeds. Following my meeting, I need to travel to Exeter on Tuesday evening...

    New Ticket Design Launched

    My friend bought his ticket from the machine at Ben Rhydding today and it came in a very strange format. Are there no rules about following the standard format?!?

    Super off peak return

    Super off peak return

    Sorry for making it more complicated, I didn't know about the up/down usage! The ticket is from Bridge of Allan to Marlow but I have meetings in London in the morning so I'll just be using my ticket from either kings Cross or Euston. It looks like I'll just have to find something to occupy...

    Super off peak return

    I travelled down to London from Scotland on a Super-Off peak return ticket last week. Are there restrictions on when I can use the return portion or am I able to travel any time on my return as I would with an off-peak return? Just a bit confused...

    Mobile reception on trains - worst & best lines?

    I'm with O2. Not all that surprisingly, whenever I travel on the Settle & Carlisle, I get absolutely no service until about 10 mins out of Carlisle.

    Breaking up a Journey

    Oh yes, my mistake.

    Breaking up a Journey

    I have travelled frequently out of Marlow and thought I'd throw in some additional information in case you didn't know already. For getting in to London from Marlow in the morning, the first service advertised online as accepting off-peak tickets is the 10.05, however, if you catch the 08.35...

    Things left on trains (Note: photo gallery on external site)

    I accept that the content of the article wasn't brilliant but I thought the premise of it was an interesting one to see if people on the forum had stories of their own to tell about left behind items.

    Things left on trains (Note: photo gallery on external site)

    I just saw this article on the telegraph website listing strange things passengers have left behind on trains. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/picturegalleries/uknews/10231724/15-odd-and-strange-items-left-on-trains-by-passengers.html (it is a gallery so I can't copy the text) So I wondered if...
