    Trying to get the current price Peterborough to London season ticket. Doesn't tell me how much it will be including underground travel, only travel to Kings Cross. Any ideas why ? Just a glitch on the website, or something more sinister ???

    Confused - best price Pboro to Preston

    Hi all Loolking for some advice on the ticket options. Travelling from Peterborough to Preston on a Saturday in July. probably 19th July. Getting very confused by the ticketing options on the Nationalrail website - seems to be implying 78 for a single ticket - a mistake I hope ...

    Season tickets - payment delays

    Hi Got a quick question. Has anyone any idea of how long it normally takes for payment for season tickets to come out of your account ? Bought my season ticket a while ago - had to sign for it the old-fashioned way when my card was declined (just because of the amounts involved - a few...

    FCC - kids fares

    Hi - I'm pretty sure that it was possible for kids to travel to/from London on FCC at the weekends for a flat £2 fare (from Peterborough/Huntingdon etc on the EC line), as long as the adult has a valid ticket and they travel together. However, either FCC are hiding this very well on their...

    First Bus Driver - Disadvantage?

    I've no idea about this, and can only speak as someone who has to use services provided by First Bus regularly. Sorry, but I have to say that in my experience, their drivers are the most unhelpful and ill-informed people I have ever encountered working in "customer service". They appear to...

    Is this allowed?

    I don't really care what the rules are for this, but anything that can be done to stop these selfish gits taking up 2 seats should be encouraged. I commute on the EC line, and the number of times I have seen people getting on a peak hour train out of KX, then planting their bags (we're...

    London Terminals

    Just a note to say that I took the advice from the people on here and it worked a treat ! Absolutely no problem getting through either Kings X or Moorgate. Thanks for your help everyone :wink:

    London Terminals

    It kind of defeats the purpose if I have to buy a Zone U1 ticket, as my question was whether I could go from Kings X to Moorgate on a ticket to London terminals, without the need to have any additional LU costs on top.

    London Terminals

    Thanks to all !! 2 final questions : 1) When I travel to Kings X, with the ticket marked for London Terminals, will I be able to access the underground via the ticket machines ? & 2) Will I get out the other end at Moorgate ? Or will I have to do battle with the staff at either ?

    London Terminals

    Hi all - sorry if this question has been done to death before. My question is over charges for fares to London Terminal stations. Principally, whether buying a season ticket to London Terminals, from Peterborough on EC into Kings X, means you are able to use the LU to Moorgate (3 stops)...

    Seat-hoggers..............

    Ok - maybe I didn't explain things very well. I travel on a commuter route in & out of Kings X. I am talking about people who board the train at Kings X, at peak time, and put their bag on the seat next to them, sometimes 10 minutes before the train is even due to depart. Is that ever...

    Seat-hoggers..............

    Some of the replies on here make my heart sink. How, exactly, do you know when a train is crowded ? Do you walk through each of the carriages to see ? Or do you stick your nose in a book, pretending not to know what's going on ? Unfortunately this just reinforces my view that it is pure...

    Seat-hoggers..............

    Ok, first post, and a rant............ Why, why, why do some selfish sods feel the need to take up the seat next to them with their bag, coat or other personal effects ? Is it just that they feel they deserve 2 seats, or are afraid of human contact, or are just tossers who don't give a...
