Hi all, Wanting some advice on an upcoming multi-stop journey: Friday: Salisbury - London Saturday: London - Cambridge Sunday: Cambridge - Birmingham Monday: Birmingham - Salisbury And I have no idea which ticket combination would work best!

Hi all, Quick split question: Return travel from Edinburgh to Bristol Temple Meads Out: 7th or 8th June Return: 9th or 10th June (2-3 nights) Railcard: 16-25 Looking for any cheap combination/route...

A quick request for possible splits: Salisbury to Cambridge, leaving on a Friday afternoon, returning Sunday. Avoiding advance tickets, with a 16-25 Railcard, prioritising cost over time. Cheers!

Quick question: are rangers and rovers still subject to the minimum fare before 10am when purchased with a railcard?

Hey guys, I'm thinking of doing an ALR (well, Britrail because I can) in first class. I'll start out in Bristol Parkway, but aslong as I'm in a major city (with a hostel) overnight there shouldn't be an issue. Just wondering what the best trains to get are? I'm obviously looking to travel the...

I've attached a copy of the East Coast excess rules (obtained by FoI request) - they should be inline with national policies, but may go beyond them...

Just wondering if anyone knew the schedule of these now? Are there still the class 57 and 67 sets? Cheers,

Going from 1 to 2 in an attempt to free up a 158 set on the new timetable (13th Dec 09 - 22nd May 10) it seems (Monday - Friday only)... 67: 0619 BRI-CDF 0800 CDF-PGN 1247 PGN-CDF 1700 CDF-TAU 1918 TAU-BRI 57/3: 0728 TAU-BPW 0913 BPW-WSM 1102 TAU-CDF 1400 CDF-TAU 1613 TAU-CDF...

On what TOCs is the Freedom of Severn and Solent Rover valid? National rail says "Arriva Trains Wales, First Great Western, South West Trains, CrossCountry ", which means that Southern and London Midland are out of the question - I'm trying to think of any particularly annoying implications of...

Now I hated the electronic guide as much as everyone else, but the new one (i.e. pdf only) is just horrendous. I can't help but think if you even mentioned the words to a guard you would just get your ticket stamped. There's still some lovely routing (such as Bristol to Exeter SW, route...

How do excesses work? I had a ticket recently that I wanted to change the destination on, and was told by BRI ticket office that it couldn't be done and they could only excess the difference between a railcard and non-railcard ticket etc. and I'd have to buy a new ticket. So I'm just wondering...

If you, say board a train as the ticket machine isn't functional in some way, but the guard refuses to sell a discounted ticket, or you boarded a service which the guard refused to believe your ticket was valid on, what rights do you have? Are you able to refuse to pay, and provide your name...

It seems National Express East Coast have reintroduced the 10% off advance fares until July. "Offer exclusive to bookings at nationalexpresseastcoast.com. 10% discount is only available on our lowest East Coast Standard Advance fares excluding trains arriving into London before 1115 or leaving...

I got some clarification on station access from First GW, and thought I would share it.

I have two separate advance tickets (one to and one from Derby). If the incoming train were to be delayed such that I missed my connection, would I be forced to buy another ticket for my connection?

NRCOC says that if you are traveling on a combination of tickets, and the train does not stop where you switch tickets, that it is still valid if: 19.(c) one of the tickets is a Season Ticket (which for this purpose does not include Season Tickets or travel passes issued on behalf of a passenger...

Bristol Parkway is part of the Bristol Group, and Ludlow's routeing points are Hereford and Craven Arms. Using Hereford (i've no idea if one is expected to use the closest routeing point from the origin), maps are BD, CE, WR. (Craven Arms gives just map BD.) Map CE appears to allow travel via...

I'm trying to track down tickets for 2 adults (one with a railcard) for Bristol Parkway to London Paddington (although, if it is another London terminal, this wouldn't bother me). Any ideas on the cheapest tickets? Splitting tickets on the Paddington to Swansea mainline didn't seem to help for...
