GWR is allowing you to select Bond Street, I'm told.

Crikey, what a bloody mess! Seems just as crazy as the whole faff with Merseyrail not doing ToD. Presumably they enable it on the machines they operate outside the core?!

I've seen conflicting reports on whether ToD is possible on Elizabeth Line core TVMs. I'm specifically interested in whether the machines at Bond Street offer it - Hanover Square entrance is fine. I'd assume they do but does anyone know for sure?

A colleague travels mostly from Tonbridge to Cannon Street, but occasionally wishes to travel via Greenwich at the beginning or end of the working day. We have noticed that the season ticket price difference for Tonbridge to London Terminals route NOT HIGH SPEED and for Tonbridge to Greenwich...

Looks like replacement buses next week on RB73. Shame as I'll be in the Berlin area around that time!

Hi, could I confirm that 2D52 today (9th June) was 466016 on the back, or was it 018? I was fairly sure it was 016 but it was dark and I was a bit drunk so who knows... cheers!

If anyone has any Summer (June-September) 1955 passenger working timetables or supplements for sale, I would potentially be interested in purchasing them — I already have a fair collection but I also have rather a lot missing. I've been scouring eBay/online bookshops/etc. for some time now, so...

I've had times with SWR where I've recorded the train arriving into the platform because I know it's on the borderline of a 15-minute claim, and the official offsets tend to assume a much less "defensive driving" approach into Waterloo (RTT's are a bit better but still can't account for the...

Has anyone got recent experience of buying CrossCountry weekend firsts? My dad is planning a day trip tomorrow where he intends to use them, but I've just noticed that all reference to them has ominously disappeared off their website, and their website is no longer selling them either. The fares...

Just an odd question that popped into my head. Obviously in the UK (and to some extent in Ireland) there is the concept of a "Parkway" station, originally named after an early name for the M32 (the Bristol Parkway) — this is a station with good road connections and large car parks that usually...

Hi all, Extreme long shot this one, but I went on a DLR trip, and made a mental note of the rear unit on this train but must have somehow got distracted as I never wrote it down! I travelled on it at 18:23 from Bank to Island Gardens, and the front and middle units were 71 and 44. Anyone...

Does anyone know exactly how this is going to work? Seems like they've largely replaced Weekend First upgrades with these. Or at the very least, they've severely jacked up the price of Weekend Firsts. This is all well and good for the routes that have Standard Premium — indeed perhaps this...

Complete guess, but maybe the intention is that those in NR ticket offices with no obvious access to TfL systems can answer questions like "what's the Oyster fare to Y"? Of course if some of the data is wrong then yeah, probably worse than it being absent entirely...

The CrossCountry "Ersatzzüge" tomorrow will all be single Voyagers according to the timetable PDF published on their website. Glad I went and photted the HST when I could!

Source for this? I can't find it on their website or Twitter. Is it not yet public?

Doesn't even seem to be the case for most of the day, seems like a few morning services were stoppers from Swindon but the ones running through the day are fast services like yesterday.

Oh I see what you mean. Sorry :)

This happened yesterday; I was on one. It's 1tph 12-car 387s Paddington to Swindon (they were using p3 yesterday, cross-platform of course to p1 for the CrossCountry) calling Reading and Didcot. In other news looks like the collection of the three c2c 387s is happening. Will be good to see that...

Email Avanti here [email protected] well in advance (they're pretty slow). Explain the situation and supply any details about the ticket (booking reference, etc.). Be prepared to have a bit of a back and forth with them over email until they begrudgingly allow it (but they...

Front unit is 365502. Won't know rear until I can view it at KGX.
