Traveling to and from Windsor tomorrow, is £28.60 the cheapest adult return ticket cost without any railcards? Sorry for the short notice.

Is there a mechanism for First Group to propose a link between their GWML and WCML franchises? Paddington to Euston is not the easiest of transfers. Could Reading to Watford via the NLL work and what would it take to make the paths available? Sorry if this has been covered elsewhere.

The Daily Telegraph reports that Justine Greening may be moved in a forthcoming cabinet reshuffle. It is stated that her opposition to a third runway at Heathrow is the main reason. In spite of their manifesto pledge, the cabinet seems to be increasingly pro the third runway, especially when...

I will be in Edinburgh with my wife and daughter in early August. Can anyone recommend a day trip by rail as I do not want to hire a car. Ideally, the trip would include some nice scenery and a circular route with one or two stops would be ideal.

Are there any plans for the ex Eurostar depot at North Pole?

Was Kings Cross - St Pancras ever considered for inclusion in Crossrail instead of Faringdon, for example?

With 70 business leaders writing to the Daily Telegraph urging the government to rethink its position, the 3rd runway argument just isn't going to go away. Personally, I think the government's dichotomy of policies is increasingly untenable. On the one hand they are, quite rightly, investing...

There is an increasing number of 'linked' stations on the LUL map. For example, White City/Wood Lane and Bank/Monument. Are there any other less obvious examples? I am not sure what LUL considers acceptable as "walking distance".

I am traveling to Glasgow in June with my wife and daughter. With easyjet being so cheap, how do I convince my other half that we are better off going by train? Any advice on fares welcome. I would anticipate traveling off peak and staying for two or three nights.

Once Crossrail is completed, I understand that Greenford services will terminate at West Ealing. Are there any planned changes to the Marlow and Henley branches? With paths into and out of Paddington at a premium, what kind of service (frequency/rolling stock) are we likely to see?
