Thanks for the speedy reply, so, given I have an off peak 'not via' which cost £163.70 so the excess should be about a fiver but it might be hard work to get one sold?
I have a ticket off peak return 'not via London' from Oxford to edinburgh, out on 30/10, back on 1/11. If I want instead to return on the evening of 31/10 via London, can this be done via an excess and, if so, how?
Hello,
Can anyone help with a detailed fare question?
My friend has a ticket from London to Coventry - I assume a LM only or similar as she says it is only valid on the 'slow trains that stop at Milton Keynes' though I haven't seen it myself. She is travelling out on a weekday and...
Entirely depends what are you want to work in, but most lines have some kind of young volunteers' group that do some organised activities. At my local line, the Glos-Warwicks we have a group of 12-16 year olds who do a variety of tasks depending on their age. They do work as a group but as...

Hello,
This morning I wished to travel from a station (anon to avoid id of staff) to Oxford, a journey requiring a change at Reading to be possible.
My final arrival time was off peak, the train into Reading peak. So, I asked the clerk for the direct price and for the price of a ticket...
Barriers at Newbury have been operational for a few weeks now - they seem to have come in with a nice new cream paint job and tidy up for the canopy etc replacing some very tired NSE blue.
Hello,
Can anyone help - I think I have a quirk of sleeper ticket vouchers here but if I've got this wrong I'll be in a lot of trouble late one evening on Plymouth station...
I've booked a ticket, I think, for two to travel from Plymouth to London on the sleeper.
I have three...
