I would like to travel from station A to station B, tomorrow. A return is around £40. What I always do is buy a ticket from station A to station C. A permitted route is to change at station B. I cut the journey short, never actually go to C, always alight at station B, and get the whole...

I'm looking for the perfect app for me, to buy train tickets on my phone. I would consider a website that I can use in my phone's browser, but would prefer an app. It must meet the following criteria... 1. Absolutely no booking fees, so it's probably going to be a TOC's app. 2. The ability...

I'm fairly sure I bought a ticket from Worcester to Northfield or Longbridge about a year or two ago and I was able to add PlusBus. But when I asked recently, the staff member at Worcester said PlusBus wasn't available for Northfield / Longbrige stations. Can somebody please confirm either way...

I was playing around with ticket prices from Worcester a few months ago, looking for places to visit. There is one particular station on the rail network which I can get to from Worcester by either changing at Smethwick Galton Bridge or Birmingham New Street. (The journey time is almost...

For example, say I'm travelling on the last train of the day from London Paddington to Worcester Foregate Street. The train's late and it terminates at Worcester Shrub Hill. Say I've left my bike locked up at Foregate Street, so I really must return there. I'd walk it in about 12 minutes...

I've heard there's a weather warning for heavy rain this Friday and Saturday in the North-West of England. How often is the West Coast mainline in Cumbria affected by flooding or landslides due to flooding caused by heavy rain? More than the average line I'd guess. I've booked a journey for...
