    No fares available please choose another journey

    Many thanks all of you and sorry to be slow responding. There was plenty of room in my carriage and I had a pleasant journey to London. I even got lucky with the tube and made an earlier connection at Vauxhall (Oyster). All in all it was fine. Sorry if I asked a silly question I just didn't...

    Many thanks both MCR and Haywain. Very kind of you to help. When do the cheaper tickets vanish from the site? Is it 24 hours before travel. Or is it at midnight tonight? Thanks

    New layout National Rail Enquiries

    What do people think of the new(ish) layout on NRE? I find it less convenient. Because, if I want a return journey I am now forced to select an outward journey and then go to the next page to see the return journey. If, like today, I want to plan a period of time in a destination, say 4 hours...
