I think an important point is being missed - the discussion is only considering what happens when you sit next to one infectious person for either 1 hour or 2 hours. By changing trains and sitting next to 2 people, you double the chance that one of them is infectious. If we take the...

Thanks everyone! The Kentish Town suggestion is good but I think it is too complicated to try to explain for a very small saving. People will be arriving individually, so can't use Groupsave. On arrival at Shepperton, they will probably need to get a taxi, unless they want to walk. The 557...

Thanks Starmill! I never knew you could buy tickets to stations outside the London zones from a London Underground ticket machine. And I found the ticket on brfares now that I know what to look for.

I would like to ask for some advice about how to get from St Pancras to Shepperton, during the evening peak, for someone without an Oyster card. And how to they make sure to buy the correct ticket, assuming they know nothing about the UK railway system. The reason is that I am organising an...

On the Charing Cross branch, there is a set of stairs (probably 20-30 stairs) from the platform to the underground corridor level. On the Bank branch, this is an escalator. Once you get to the underground corridor level, both are the same - escalator to ticket hall level, then a choice of...

In the end I travelled Euston to Watford Junction, used private transport between Watford Junction and Radlett, then returned from Radlett to St Pancras. For tickets I used a Radlett travelcard and a BZ6-Watford Junction single. So the same issue as my original plan of whether it was valid to...

Thanks LexyBoy and Deerfold for pointing out that I could use the return portion of the travelcard to get to Radlett then a Radlett-BZ6 to come back. I don't know why I had not thought of that. To Arctic Troll and Deerfold, I am a bit confused about what you said as in my original plan I was...

Am I correct in thinking that travelcards are only available as returns into London and not out of London? Are you permitted to use the travelcard portion of the ticket before you have made the outward journey? I would like to make a return journey from St Pancras to Radlett on Saturday...

When I travel London-Ipswich, I normally split at Manningtree in order to use my Network Railcard for the London-Manningtree portion. Tomorrow there is a bus replacement between Billericay and Ipswich. There is a non-stop bus Billericay to Ipswich (I don't want to use the slower bus via...

According to the RailUK Fares & Ticketing Guide: Does this mean that a zones 1-2 annual travelcard on Oyster combined with a Cambridge-Finsbury Park (not via London) ticket is valid on a non-stop train Cambridge-Kings Cross? Will I get queried for using this, at either station or on board...

Note that you need Mobilis out to zone 5 to get local buses at CDG, not just zones 1-2. If you are using t+ tickets on the 350 or 351 then you need 3 tickets for the journey Paris-CDG. These lines are special cases - normally you only need one ticket for a day bus journey, regardless of...

On the Paris metro, platform-edge doors seem to have been installed as prerequisites to driverless operation (recently on line 1, and on line 14 since it was built). So I assumed that it was intended to prevent accidents during automatic dispatch.

What is the restriction code for a London Eurostar-Cambridge off peak ticket? (I think London Eurostar is the one I want - I mean what you get when you book a through ticket from the Eurostar website. It should cost £6.) A few years ago there was no evening restriction on the London...

Yes, I thought at the time that this would be easy to do.

When I came off the Eurostar from Paris yesterday evening, there was a large queue of people having their passports checked in the St Pancras arrivals area. People getting off my train were separated from this queue by temporary barriers so I am guessing that it was passengers from a Brussels...

I booked Birmingham-Belfast via Holyhead recently from the ATW website having been sent there from NRE - I never knew previously that it was possible to book Rail+Sail online except from raileasy or, in limited cases, Stena. When I printed the ticket I was also surprised to get no ferry...
