    Sorry to bump an old thread but has this been implemented yet? Specifically I have a Cross Country voucher which I'd like to load onto an Oyster Pay As You go this weekend.

    Obstructing the exit

    I was going to say better one delayed train and they never stop guards in uniform again, but seeing Bellwater's post made me realise that it didn't work.

    When enthusiasts become staff......

    I have an image in my head of a mess room with a copy of Rail slipped inside the paper so no one sees what you're reading.

    Abergavenny timetable query

    Is it only me who actually doesn't like a 5 minute connection? I'd much stand at a station for 20 minutes knowing my train's going to come rather than make the whole first leg of the journey worrying that a couple of minutes delay is going to give me the sight of watching the doors close in...

    Football

    Let's hope. Not a lot one can say when something like this happens, other than saying let's cross our fingers for the best. The medics were on quick fortunately.

    West Coast friday chaos..

    The Christmas thing isn't true, studies of actually counting suicides show that it isn't higher around then, it's just when someone does commit suicide around Christmas people are going to be more inclined to remember it. The lowest time apparently is international football tournaments with...

    "Right-wingers are less intelligent than left wingers, says study." - Daily Mail.

    Most of Scandanavia's pretty socialist and has great standards of living. Also, OT, what was the Stalin biography called and would you recommend it? Sounds interesting.

    Windows 7 Help Please.

    In chrome the search feature uses the address bar as well, but it searches Google. You could always change the address bar search to use Google, but the cursor constantly moving back is presumably just a bug, so you may well be stuck until an update comes.

    Oxenholme connections

    The answer is clear, go to Penrith, bus to Keswick, walk the nicer hills ;) And if it's going to run all the way back to Manchester Airport presumably it can't be moved to give a longer connection time because paths are too hard to come across on that route.

    Virgin trains leaving Euston early?

    In all fairness it's not when you're already at the station that you should tell people to arrive earlier because the doors are going to close before. That said unless you practically live at the station I can't imagine anyone who times their journey to the station accurate to within 40 seconds.

    1758 Stockport to Chester

    I'm sat on this train awaiting for it to depart. I've gotten trains down the mid Cheshire line a fair few times but never known a service to start or end short of piccadilly. Anyone know why this particular service does? Is it a regular thing or due to some kind of disruption? It came from the...

    Bloody hell, considering populations that means everyone in Rugby doing near 10 trips a year!
