    I even tried to start from local stations around Liverpool, but still NRE only gives Heysham itineraries :( Any thought?

    railsail to Douglas, IOM

    Is the reservation compulsory for the ferry to IOM ? If I book the ticket online by choosing a Heysham itinerary and try to use that ticket to check in at Liverpool, what will happen to me ?

    railsail to Douglas, IOM

    I am planning a trip from Oxford to Douglas, IOM next weekend. I am wondering if we can take the Liverpool to Douglas ferry instead of from Heysham. I think we can, but I don't know why, the liverpool ferry was not on the NRE or Raileasy journey planner. Thanks!

    XC wifi

    I am now on a Manchester-Southampton Cental XC voyager service. The Wifi is available but not free. When did they start to introduce charges on their wifi? I remember that only one set of their trains has wifi installed? And it was free. How many trains have they equipped with wifi so far? There...

    I never read routing guide before, just found this by playing with the trainscanbecheaper.info, and just tried to dig out why it is not permitted... The routing guide seems very interesting, I will take a look :) Thanks!

    Permitted route?

    I just played with trainscanbecheaper.info, and found that from OXENHOLME LAKE D to MAGHULL via Warrington is permitted, but from OXENHOLME LAKE D to TOWN GREEN is not, while map WG should allow both, right? Thanks!
