    What could happen for not giving Revenue Officer my details

    Why would the named person not receive the letter if we're talking about a person being stopped and giving someone else's name and address which can be validated against other data sources?

    Sheffield Supertram & Tram Train news

    Based on the use of the buses I've seen, most people travelling from the Stocksbridge end are wanting to go to the stops around Hillsborough. I would suggest that the number of people who are willing to go to the city centre via Nunnery Square and then change train to get to the city centre is...

    Sheffield Supertram & Tram Train news

    So someone wanting to go to the supermarket in Hillsborough from Stocksbridge would have to go via the City Centre? Nothing has changed in this regard - Stagecoach were only the operators, not the owners of the system. Planning and implementing any possible extensions has always been a...

    Caught walking through barriers with a friend

    Ask yourself what the deterrent to doing it again would be if all you had had to do was say sorry and then pay for the fare when you got caught. To then claim in your mitigation that it was an inadvertent accident and you didn't mean to do it and are sorry for the inconvenience of them...

    EWR, Universal and Wixams

    If the traffic is backing up to Bedford then Universal has failed. They will want people out of their cars, into the park and spending money as quickly as possible.

    Penalty fare disability. OCD

    I think that can be filed in the same category as Merseyrail's "all tickets must be printed out" as they also say they accept the PDF versions of E-Tickets which are effectively a screenshot.

    Penalty fare disability. OCD

    I think in this case, you might have been better to let him call the BTP. Based on what you have said they are far more likely to have sided with you and told the RPI to leave you alone than arresting you, but I realise that you may not have wanted to pursue this avenue. You absolutely need to...

    EWR, Universal and Wixams

    Indeed - with the timescales being talked about, Leicester may also be fully wired, opening the option of a split Leicester / Corby service.

    Euston overcrowding at TfL/LU entrance caused by new Network Rail departure boards

    Likewise, if these are actually causing you issues, then complain with details. Many advertising sites have restrictions on what content can be displayed - the best example is that only static images are allowed on most roadside advertising screens aimed at drivers - there is no reason why...

    Euston overcrowding at TfL/LU entrance caused by new Network Rail departure boards

    In case people are unaware, LED screens can have their brightness significantly adjusted, from just visible in a dark room all the way up to readable in direct sunlight. The brightness of a screen in a particular location is by choice, not a side effect of the choice of display technology. If...

    GB News

    It doesn't say Sky News, it says Sky - the whole group. Since Sky do all the advertising sales on the channel, advertising their own products is a cheap way of filling the slots if nobody else will take them - and I suspect you'll be seeing a lot more Sky Sports offers and Sky Bet adverts than...

    EMR MML services on Sundays too crowded - what should be done?

    No, I mean the company who continue to tell us everything is great and is going to be getting amazing any time soon, who would rather spend a shed load of money on a mascot they never use in their advertising than making sure the seats all have covers. I have no problem with the front line...

    EMR MML services on Sundays too crowded - what should be done?

    They are very much in a situation of their own making. They knew they needed more stock when they got rid of the HST's. They knew they needed more stock when they got rid of the 180's. They know they need more stock when they get the 810's. And they know there will be less seats on the 810 fleet...

    Collecting footage for YouTube

    Is this one of the 360 degree cameras you use on the end of a stick?
