As the title says... Thanks!

Hi, I made a little video report, as the title says: Thanks signol

Interesting as this would be, and cheap for the train fares, the cost of positioning flights would be higher. Thanks for the suggestion though! Are there any cheap ways to get Night Riviera or Caledonian sleepers?... signol

Thanks rg177, I hadn't thought of heading east. Ryanair serve Kosice too... signol

Hi all. My kids are now at an age where they'd find a sleeper train a fun experience. So, where in Europe would I be able to take two kids on an overnight journey for as little as possible? As they are kids, I'd need to book an entire compartment. Start and finish need to be accessible by BA...

Worth going over to Copenhagen on the Train-Ferry? Quite a rare experience!

Thanks :)

If you really want to do it on the cheap. Take the X26 bus from Heathrow to Croydon, then get any train down to Gatwick. £1.50 for the bus, £3 for the train. All with contactless payment card, no paper ticket needed. signol

A long time ago (2002) I did Sydney - Adelaide on it, in a seat. Some nice scenery through the Outback, but it did go on for a long time! Train stopped for an hour or so at Broken Hill, time for a very quick look around but not much more than that. signol

The Porto tram museum is pretty good, lots of old trams in a big shed, but absolutely no mention of the modern trams (metro). signol

Hi all, Hopefully I've come into the right board, being relatively new to the forum. I've come up wit ha plan to buy an Anglia Plus day ranger and travel over the entire validity network of it. Given the peak time restrictions it looks like it will have to be a Saturday, when there are no...

I travelled from Copenhagen to Hamburg a few years ago, and the train travelled on the ferry with us from Rodby to Puttgarten. The crossing was about 45 mins I recall. Everyone had to get off the train in the car deck, and get back on board when drivers returned to their vehicles. The train was...

I grew up in Reedham, and can recommend the Ship as the best of the 3 current pubs. It's on the quay, right next to the railway swing bridge. signol
