Despite the Wigglesworths in Giggleswick having a great sound to it, it does pose the problem of not having an advance fare to Edinburgh and so settling for Settle may be a better option with some much better deals? With the dollar rising and the bright summer evenings, I'm sure they'll have a...

Thanks. It is clearly a problem with the ticket type rather than the cash amount. Maybe they can't believe that I will use those services and as the ticket is normally valid for any company, it cannot be endorsed "East Coast Only" and that they would have to give other companies money through...

I have just tried to use my voucher for a return from Newcastle to Morpeth on East Coast services, out at 19.45 and return at 22.28, when I click buy now the following appears- "One of the selected gift eVouchers is restricted to East Coast (except Glasgow) who do not operate your chosen...

For the first 10,000 using the code in this Sunday's Telegraph for new and existing users according to moneysavingexpert.

Is Redhill the black sheep of The Southern Network? I once stayed there for a couple of nights as The Travelodge is very handy for the station and was very perplexed to find out that none of Southern's £5 advance singles to Southampton/Eastbourne are available from Redhill yet are possible from...

Thanks. I already have a rainforest of tickets, reservations and receipts for journeys that week in my wallet, 2 less for this will help. In fact, I think it's a good idea to send out a text, just so long as I don't end up with a number "3" stamp punched on my phone!! :D:D

While there is a topic about the sleeper on the go, I hope you don't mind if I sneak in a quick question. I'm booked on the Inverness-Euston next month and received a text message from Scotrail with the details of the train and my berth number etc. The text starts by saying "This is your...

Just check that a CDR is valid on the 17.08 from Edinburgh, it may be peak tickets only. If so, you may be slightly better off buying an Ayr-Stranraer return, then a single from Ayr to Kirkcaldy? Sounds like a well planned trip covering lots of Scotland, Enjoy.

Mr Megabus may also sort you out? They have services at 05.30 and 07.39 from London to Southampton, returning at 12.55 and 13.55. All call at Clapham Junction and the Airport so I'm sure you could sort something out? Deals won't be available for another few weeks for your required dates, but...

Yet again the routeing system baffles me. Frodsham is based on fares to/from Warrington(in the good old days of the fares manual), yet you say it is not valid via Warrington? Anybody travelling via Runcorn would have to wait for the once a week Summer Saturday only service!! Most TOCs websites...

Just to conclude the tale, as it was on the first service of the day, it also formed the first service in the opposite direction. After the dodger got off on the freezing unmanned platform he waited over an hour for the same unit back. Nearly in tears (and desperate for the 153's heat), the...

Thanks for the tips. When I travel I shall post exactly what happens for anybody in the future. As for break of journey, there isn't anything which says I can't on either the airport or the Scotrail sites.

Hi, at the end of the month I will be flying into Prestwick from Warsaw,a flight eligible for the free ticket to any Scotrail station. Does anybody know where you have to go in the airport to get the ticket as the station doesn't have a ticket office? (well it didn't when I was there in 2007)...

Just a hypothetical question based on something which happened in the good old days before the black boxes/CCTV. All stations on the line except the end ones(stops 1 and 9 in this case) are request stops, a passenger gets on at the 2nd stop, refuses to pay or give a valid home address and then...

Indeed, the split at Chorley brings it down to £43.70. Looking at the Chorley to Glasgow segment, it's 10p more for a day return than a single, should we be happy that this 200 mile "BOGOF" deal is available, or feel hard done by if you only want to go one way? I think it's a great deal to...

Thanks "Pacer Guru!" I got the ticket to Sunderland(it was the same price as Newcastle), however I shall get one of those day savers to be safe and it will allow me to take the alternative route via North Shields, I have never done The Shields Ferry or The South Shields branch, plus it will...

Thanks for that info, I was pushing it hoping for a day rover on the Metro and ticket from Cambridge for £16, but at least by asking I have saved myself from coming back on here after the trip asking for advice on fare evasion from Metro RPIs!!

Hi, I am looking at doing the following single journey- 21/02/13. Cambridge to Sunderland via Stevenage on East Coast's website at 09.30 and have 2 options- 1- Sunderland. £14.70 or 2- Sunderland (metro) £16. which says "Destination:Newcastle Tyne & Wear Metro" I know there's not much...

As the initial post was from a Vale fan, the West Midlands day rover is also valid from Longport which may save him or any fellow fans the taxi fare to Stoke? However, it would mean a 9.27 start from Longport. I'm sure the East Midlands guard would be delighted to sell all the tickets now there...

Thanks Johnny, it's always nice when somebody acknowledges your comment and tells the relevant people. I think the ticket is a great idea and enabled me to visit 11 pubs in 6 different places on the network, so don't say it is a complaint, I wouldn't want the ticket withdrawn! In fact, it would...
