    Train delay codes?

    Is there a place listing all train delay codes used for public viewing? Particularly interested in TD(SU) which has popped up on Realtime Trains. Thank you.

    Southern On Track App (Android)

    Not a major issue but I can't get the live departure and arrivals info on this app to work. The same is happening with the Thameslink equivalent. Selecting a station set as a favourite and then departure and arrival info just results in a circle going around on the screen endlessly. I have...

    Boundary Zone 6 to Norwich Return

    I did ask her for the actual Boundary Zone station name and she refused to sell that ticket stating the train doesn't stop there. I was fairly certain she was wrong but didn't want an argument so accepted the London Terminals start point. As it turns out my routing has had to be via Cambridge as...

    Southern, Thameslink & Great Northern 'Not On Strike' Details

    Does anyone know if the strike on 16th March 2023 will be a complete stop of all GTR services or will there be a limited timetable. I need to travel from Brighton to East Croydon. Online timetables don't seem to have been updated yet. Any help appreciated. Thank you.

    Many thanks for explaining this.

    Southern Class 455 Withdrawal

    So are the brakes on the 455 units not functional at all when being towed and therefore totally reliant on the loco and barrier wagons for braking?

    Southern Class 455 Withdrawal

    Out of interest, what is the reason that for the scrap moves to Newport they don't go as 12 car formations?

    London to Kidderminster with stay in Bristol on outward

    Thank you Kieron - Does anyone know if there is a return ticket from London to Kidderminster that allows a routing and stay in Bristol on the outbound. I am happy to return via the same route if that makes it easier.

    London to Kidderminster with stay in Bristol on outward

    Thank you - I am relatively flexible on times and certainly wouldn't be travelling in peak times. I don't want to be tied to a specific train. It doesn't matter which London terminal. It's more about getting the most appropriate ticket type for the route. Can it for example all be done on one...

    Much appreciated - I will stick to the Anytime option splitting ticket at Gatwick as I don't fancy being challenged.
