Thank you.

Thank you for your reply. The reason I asked is because I found this on Virgin trains website(maybe it is an old one version) "National Railcards can be used on Standard and First Class Anytime, Off-Peak and Advance fares on train services throughout Great Britain, when you travel after peak...

Hello to everyone. I need some advice. I received my senior railcard today and I was looking on the virgin trains website for tickets from Euston to Llandudno return. On the website it says that senior railcards cannot be used before 9.30am Mon-Fri. But when I click the option to add the senior...

I have noticed that every two weeks there is the same food. There used to be a 4 week rotation.

Thank you all for your very helpful advice. Much appreciated.

Now I saw some really cheap Megabus tickets. I think I will get a reference number after booking and then I give the number to my friends? Would that be all? I never booked tickets with Megabus/train for myself, so I don't know how it works.

Thanks for your reply. I just found a reservation coupon which I used in July and it was printed at the self service machine. It had my last name at the bottom. Another ticket which was posted to me, didnt have my name on it. I don't want my friends getting into trouble in case they are...

Hi I need some advice. Friends of mine are coming to London for a holiday from South Africa and they also want to visit relatives in Swansea. I want to book train tickets for them online and then I would collect the tickets at the self service machine at the train station or maybe they can be...

I also got an email for Virgin for a £5 off, minimum spend of £25 for Standard Advance tickets only. Please let me know if you want the code, I won't be using it. Code taken.

Yes, of course, you are right! I must have written too fast and not thinking. Cabin or compartment should have been said in my post. Anyway, my cabin mate did not lock the door from the inside and when I came from the lounge car, it did not open and she did not hear me knocking. I had to find...

I was on the sleeper beginning of May to Edinburgh. It was the best train trip I ever made. Once the door of the berth closes behind you, it is locked. To open it, you need to find the sleeper attendant to unlock it. I stayed in the ever so cosy lounge car till way after one when it did close...

Had a lovely day trip to York today. Weather was perfect and the crew on the 9.08 from KX were really nice. Had 3 cups of coffee, juice, water and a savoury pastry (which was very tasty) and I ordered the pancakes. They were ok, but probably would not order again. On the way back at 18.01 from...

Looking forward to a day trip to York from KX on 23 June at 9.08am. Maybe will order the pancakes if available. On the way back at 18.01 might have the Pea and broad bean hummus. Not thinking about ordering the Brie sandwich, seems it is lacking of Brie! Hopefully there will be a few drink...

The station food looks delicious! But I can't complain on the recent trip with EC from Edinburgh to KX and their food and service! Food offered three times, very tasty, coffee and soft drinks offered six times and four rounds alcoholic drinks! I was very impressed with service and all. So, I...

Actually there were four rounds of alcoholic drinks, not three. And on each of the three times I was offered food, there was fresh fruit, bananas and apples, as well!

Just an update on my recent and first trip on the Caledonian Sleeper from Euston to Edinburgh. I would recommend it to anyone. What a wonderful experience! The lower berth (01) over the wheels was no problem. We took off an hour later due to a fatality somewhere, but the train made up for the...

I took the east coast train first class today from Edinburgh (16.30) to Kings Cross. What a pleasant journey. The crew were very nice and two of them left at Newcastle and two others joined the train. Coach M was full, coach L (where I sat), had maybe 12 people and coach K was maybe one third...

About to board the sleeper from Euston to Edinburgh shortly.

I might be treated to R2 November 2013 next week, then. On Facebook East Coast said that the new menu will be announced at the end of this month. --- old post above --- --- new post below --- This is from East Coast: The menu rotation from 28/04 has reverted to the current rotation. The actual...

I also would be interested to know, as I am travelling in May, too. Probably we will only know when it is announced after the 27th of April on the East Coast website.
