    The December 2007 timetable https://web.archive.org/web/20080228103739/http://www.eastmidlandstrains.co.uk/NR/rdonlyres/01820945-B484-424C-B92C-851888E302E0/0/EMTTimetable1.pdf still has a few Barnsley services.

    Delay Repay - odd request.

    London Midland by any chance? I had a similar experience with them a few years ago, I gave them the names and the address (same as mine) of the people travelling with me and the vouchers turned up in separate envelopes a week later.

    Virgin Trains East Coast track access applications

    London North Eastern Railway (LNER) First Class service

    Looking at the new timetable it seems that the introduction of the evening meal on the 19:00 is indeed at the expense of the 20:00.

    Virgin Trains to Shrewsbury

    If I'm not mistaken -U and -D in between the line code and platform columns indicate an attachment/detachment, so that gives: M-F 06:39 SHR-EUS 10-car from WVH 10:23 EUS-SHR 10-car to BHM 15:24 SHR-EUS 10-car from BHM 18:23 EUS-SHR 10-car to WVH Sat 08:18 SHR-EUS 10-car from BHM...

    ToD Facilities at Non-Station Locations

    Apologies for the poor quality of the photo (and even worse editing of the background) but I spotted this PC set up as an Evolvi 'kiosk' today:

    FGW scratchcard tickets

    These are a new type, there's definitely no perforation and the T&Cs state "The ticket is valid for only one person and one [return] journey". Great, thanks. I didn't realise this was the case, I very rarely get a seat reservation with a non Advance ticket so I assumed it was the same.

    FGW scratchcard tickets

    Just a few questions about these: Has anyone managed to obtain seat reservations for these? The lack of proper ticket number makes me think it may not be possible/difficult to find a clerk willing to do so. If so, did the £5 seat reservation fee apply? (Does this still apply at all? I...

    RealTime Trains

    I suspect this may be a hangover from the Stromferry bypass closure and Scotrail ran an additional early morning service from Inverness: https://www.scotrail.co.uk/fb/content/additional-service-plockton-high-school-pupils. Presumably this would have been the return service and the path has...

    Accommodation suggestions and reviews

    Stayed in the Birmingham Central Moor Street Travlodge recently; refurbished with the new look, above a Tesco express and well located for both New Street and Moor Street I thought it was excellent value for £21. I would suggest asking for a room facing away from the road if possible, the...
