    FGW at Paddington still getting evening Off Peak validity spectacularly wrong.

    Exactly, so don't go out of your way to get tickets printed with avantix machines from Didcot (so then you get the restriction code). Simple.

    FGW at Paddington still getting evening Off Peak validity spectacularly wrong.

    But if the ticket says off peak, has no restriction code and he's trying to travel at peak what do you expect? Hold up everyone who has similar tickets and contact NRE, taking up precious time and delaying other passengers?

    Off Peak Kings Cross to King's Lynn Services

    Almost all the services are 8 car and decouple at Cambridge to continue onwards as 4 cars. Living around Lynn I've used these trains and I would say that they do require the frequency they have and I feel that the other Cambridge Flyer should start from Ely to make Ely a more useful interchange...

    My idea for Cross Country to London King's Cross?

    It's Ely North Jct that's the issue, not the lack of dual track.

    To me it sounds like a load of old tosh as I live near Peterborough and often spot there (Including yesterday) and had no issues.
