    Custom House DLR\Elizabeth Line Ticket Gateline

    Can I use an alternative route to avoid rail replacement?

    OK, i think i'll just stick to rail replacement. I assumed because I’d eventually end up at Liverpool Street it wouldn’t matter too much. It would just be an off peak open return Stratford to Ipswich

    Remaining GWR HST Diagrams

    Sorry I forgot to mention a day, but I did mean on the 18th. Didn't want to go too far but wanted to spend a decent amount of time on the HST so the 18:22 seems ideal rather than going to didcot at 18:30.

    Remaining GWR HST Diagrams

    Will the 18:22 to Hereford stopping at Oxford run as an HST? Wondering whether to take this service and back or 18:30 to Didcot Parkway and back to give the HSTs my first try before they leave Paddington.
