    National Rail Games Train Tickets

    Hi all, Does anyone know if the National Rail Games Travel website is allowed to make this statement under the NRCoC and will it be enforced? I ask because quite a few journeys I've checked on nationalrailgamestravel.co.uk seem to be cheaper than nationalrail.co.uk or the TOC's own website...

    YP Oyster Railcard Early Off Peak Fares

    Hi all, I'm hoping someone can clear this up for me. I used my 16-25 Railcard Oyster Card this morning to make my journey from New Southgate (NSG), to Victoria (VIC). I got on the 06:22 train, so 'touched in' at around 06:18. The journey cost me £2.45 (which is correct for a standard "off-peak"...

    Tube "Delays" Redefined

    Video: BBC - Tube Delays Redefined What do we think? I personally don't think it makes a difference to anyone but the managers who get performance related pay/bonuses. I've been on peak tube services that take 4 times as long to do one station, yet "Good Service" has been displayed. Other...

    Another graphics problem

    Ok, I have a strange feeling that the answer will have been staring me in the face the whole time, but sadly I can't seem to find it :( Everytime and every route I start BVE in, ends up like this: Its gets a maximum of 6.8FPS, and a minimum of 0.0FPS (SERIOUSLY!!) I have a P4 3.2Ghz, 1GB...
