When he gets...

    Thank you for your reply. The reason I asked is because I found this on Virgin trains website(maybe it is an old one version) "National Railcards can be used on Standard and First Class Anytime, Off-Peak and Advance fares on train services throughout Great Britain, when you travel after peak...

    Booking train tickets for friends

    Now I saw some really cheap Megabus tickets. I think I will get a reference number after booking and then I give the number to my friends? Would that be all? I never booked tickets with Megabus/train for myself, so I don't know how it works.

    Caledonian Sleeper

    Yes, of course, you are right! I must have written too fast and not thinking. Cabin or compartment should have been said in my post. Anyway, my cabin mate did not lock the door from the inside and when I came from the lounge car, it did not open and she did not hear me knocking. I had to find...

    Caledonian Sleeper

    I was on the sleeper beginning of May to Edinburgh. It was the best train trip I ever made. Once the door of the berth closes behind you, it is locked. To open it, you need to find the sleeper attendant to unlock it. I stayed in the ever so cosy lounge car till way after one when it did close...
