    Ex LNER (and Grand Central) Mark 4 sets for TfW

    Hi, many thanks that's very helpful - also worked out that the TfW timetable shows which trains have First Class (which I assume means that they will be loco hauled). Can I ask if the 0944 from Shrewsbury is still loco hauled or is that an error in the timetable ? Thanks

    Moving to Standard Premium part way through journey .....

    Cost of Standard Premium is £25 from Crewe but only £15 from Stafford. With a ticket from Crewe and assuming the train stops at Stafford, if I move into SP from Stafford would I still be required to pay £25 (because my ticket is from Crewe) or only £15 as I moved into SP at Stafford ? Thanks

    Avanti - Advance with Off-Peak return no longer available

    I use to be able to buy an Outward Advance Crewe - Euston ticket and then get the return part of an 'Off Peak Return' coming back (which was 50% of a full Off Peak return ticket) but this no longer seems possible - am I correct ?

    Virgin Contact Centre - are they correct?

    I have an Advance Single from Chester to London. The only 'booked' portion however on the ticket is my seat from Crewe to London. I had originally planned to use the 9.55am from Chester to Crewe to connect with the 10.29 at Crewe - I don't have a reservation on this service but it's the closest...
