Hello folks, a quick follow up to a question I've had before. I'm travelling Grimsby Town to Derby (actually Birmingham, but I have to go via Derby as I'm planning on splitting tickets there) on a Friday soon. I've realised that I might be able to make it to GMB to catch the Brigg Line train...

Good evening all, I'm planning on having a trip down to Brum later this month, travelling down on Fri 19th from Grimsby Town to Birmingham (staying either near New Street or Snow Hill, spending Saturday at the NEC (although hopefully getting a bus/tram/train to a parkrun first) and returning...

Good afternoon, can I please seek the collective wisdom of the forum regarding my journey earlier this week? 15th Sept, I bought a journey, Heathrow to Grimsby via Hayes and Harlington and Sheffield. Three Tickets: Travel Date Tuesday 7 November 2023 Anytime Return, Heathrow to Hayes and...

I've just put together an itinerary for November with some splits, travelling between Grimsby and Heathrow. I have a query involving the long distance advance tickets, particularly the + Connections part. Outward is Doncaster to Hayes and Harlington, LNER Advance. "Only valid on booked London...

Good morning all, I'm wondering if you can help me check my working here. Apologies for the length, I'm trying to put my thoughts together to make a decision. I'm taking the family on a day trip to London from Aylesford, and I'm trying to work out my various options, to find the right balance...

Good afternoon, I wonder if I can trouble you again? Would anyone please be able to tell me if my split point is acceptable, or whether I need to think of something else? Following on from a question I had a few weeks ago, I think I've found the combination of tickets that work for me in...

I've got a trip from Grimsby to Milton Keynes coming up in June. I used to do these by train all the time. Sometimes I'd go ECML to London and then back north, a couple of times I went Sheffield to Bedford and then across. My favourite route, at least on the outward was Grimsby to Manchester...

Hi folks, I'm considering getting a train to the National Running Show this weekend as I'm able to knock off work early on Friday. I've found a £70.10 off-peak return fare, but when I look on NRE, it is only available for certain routings back to GMB, namely those that run directly from New...

Good afternoon, I've always had excellent advice here and so I'm coming here again to see what the collective expertise here thinks. I'm going to Chicago for the Marathon, out on 6th October and back on 10th. Originally I had booked from Manchester connecting at Heathrow, but BA have cancelled...

Good afternoon everyone. I'm playing with the grains of an idea just now, to travel from my home in Grimsby up to Aberdeen on a Friday, to take the overnight ferry to Lerwick, in order to take part in the Bressay parkrun at 9.30am on the Saturday morning, spend the rest of Saturday exploring...

Hello there, I've had so much useful help over the years, I'm wondering if someone can please help with a journey I'm making next weekend. I'm flying out of Gatwick with my son, who is 12. We have a F&F railcard for this journey and are looking for flexibility. I'm looking at a Super-Off Peak...

Hello again, I wonder if someone might be able to help me again, I've had much useful information recently. Sunday, 23rd Jan, I wish to travel from Birmingham International to Grimsby Town. South Transpennine is shut all day, so all trains through Grimsby Town are buses. Every itinerary I try...

Travelling with a child, we have an F&F Railcard and would like flexible times. Evening all, wondering if I can pick your collective brains again, please? On Feb 13th I'm flying with my son out of Gatwick. We need a PCR test before flying, so I'm looking to get a test done in Sheffield on the...

Can I just ask someone if an off-peak return from Cleethorpes to Coventry is valid via Crosscountry from Sheffield to Birmingham New Street, and by extension, to break and resume at Birmingham International en route to Cov? National Rail implies yes, but I'm not sure if I'm reading it correctly...

I travelled home yesterday from Kings Cross to Grimsby Town. I had a Super Off-Peak Single ticket, which had an itinerary (no reservations possible) for the latest possible service that I wanted to get, but I bought the ticket for its flexibility. I had no further business in London once I had...

Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask this. I've been looking at the train times through Grimsby Town this lunchtime on RTT, and I've noticed that the 1241 train to Cleethorpes, and the one that that unit makes up going back in the other direction 1326 from CLE have both been cancelled, cut...

Are these still only available as one half of a return itinerary, paired with an advance in the other direction? Or can they now be booked online as a standalone fare? I'm looking at a journey from Grimsby to London in a fortnight or so. There's a Super off-peak single (online) fare which is...

I'm sure I've posted this in the wrong place, but it's not strictly-speaking 'stations'. Next weekend I'm flying out of Newcastle Airport first thing on the Saturday morning, and I'm getting into position to stay overnight at Newcastle Airport. I booked advance tickets from Doncaster to...

So, I'm going to London this weekend, arriving Friday night and departing on the Hull Trains service at 18.48 on Monday night. Since booking my tickets, though, my mum's had an accident and is currently in Tunbridge Wells hospital awaiting surgery. That surgery may or may not happen this week...

So, I'm planning on taking a trip from Grimsby to Birmingham with my 11 year old son next weekend, the first weekend of our "freedom". It's also the first weekend of the summer holidays. I figured I might have a go on the train seeing as how I haven't been on one since this nonsense began. So...
