Looking at travelling from Blackpool South to Chesterfield..... if I purchase two advance singles eg: Blackpool to Manchester Pic (change at Preston) and then Manchester Pic to Chesterfield what happens if I arrive at Man Pic late and miss the Chesterfield leg? Transfer at Preston is 12 mins...

I have advance tickets booked for Northern next week from Manchester to Preston, for 2 adults with a Two Persons Railcard. My travelling companion cannot travel. I believe this makes both tickets invalid as both adults are not travelling. I presume my only option is to buy another adult single...

Thank you so much for this suggestion @Mcr Warrior. I did this exact journey last week and made all the connections perfectly. The Hellifield to Carlisle part got delayed just before the Viaduct and meant arriving in to Carlisle 15 mins late. A quick dash for a coffee and sandwich and I made...

My local TOC (LNER) allows you to claim other passengers’ delay repay but my understanding that’s where you made the journey too. And the journey taken was legitimate of course LNER - claim for others

Thanks so much. So on the Northern comp ticket, what other station would I put? 1678484514 Thanks for this

Would this be feasible in a day?

I have a Northern Comp return ticket and looking for suggestions for a full day out. Starting / Finishing at Preston, I’m relatively new to the Northern area so haven’t really explored much (unless you call Manchester to Preston exploring!) Many thanks

Looks as though Northern had issues with replacement buses this morning. Any idea when this was published on their site?

My plans had all revolved around leaving Stansted after 9:30 so hadn't even contemplated a Euston train until after 10:30!

Thanks Yorkie. Am I likely to get grief if a ticket check on board and/or at Tottenham Hale gates?

Looking at making a return journey from Preston to Stansted Mountfitchet for 2 Adults with a Two together railcard. Returning on Monday 20 Feb, I was expecting that I could only purchase an off peak return for a train departing Stansted after 9:30am, however the Avanti site is allowing me to...

I have two Northern advance tickets booked for work meetings next week: Feb 1 - Blackpool South to Man Piccadilly (paper ticket) Feb 2 - Man Piccadilly to Blackpool South (e-ticket) If the strike takes place on Feb 1, obviously I can’t travel. Also means that I won’t need the “return” portion...

Looking at a journey from Manchester Airport to Preston on Wed 28 Dec. Advance fare of £5.50 on the 19:17 service is available and can be added to basket. Warning symbol states “this service will not run as shown” due to engineering works between Preston and Manchester Airport. If I book this...

My elderly mother needs to make a trip from Manchester to Lytham on Sat 26th Nov. I realise this is an announced strike day by ASLEF but wondered if anyone has any previous knowledge if the Manchester to Preston services ran at all?
