I am planning a few days in Denmark. One of the days, I'd like to bash around a decent chunk of the country. Is there a Denmark Day Ticket type thing? Second.....how are ferry/bus tickets done; are they integrated with rail ones? (I'm specifically interested in the Hundestad > Rørvig ferry and...

The Flying Scotsman has spent the past couple of weekends on the Strathspey railway up in Aviemore. The railway released this statement on Facebook yesterday evening: This sounds potentially serious, with emergency services and "appropriate authorities" doing investigations. The locomotive...

I'm attempting to book tickets from Torino to Palermo for dates in November. My preference is to do an afternoon train from Torino to Roma, and then change onto the sleeper to Palermo. Trenitalia is not selling through tickets. It is selling tickets for the sleeper (Roma to Palermo), but not...

Query. Currently the Trenitalia searches and timetable PDFs are showing bus only between Dittaino and Catania, and to/from Gela in either direction (Siracusa/Canicattì). Does anyone know how permenant this is?

I'm looking at TGV tickets for April/May. For the dates I'm after, the booking page has a banner at the top saying "more trains will soon be available to book for this journey". Should I wait until those extra trains/seats become available or just go for it now?

raildar.fr appears to have been down for at least the past month. Does anyone know what's going on with it? Does anyone have a replacement that can be used for looking up non-GB rail milages?

I see that there may be a strike on the 1st and 5th of October, although there appears to be some ambiguity as to whether or not it's going ahead. There isn't a note on the Eurostar website that I can see (as there has been with previous strikes). I'm booked on a Eurostar on the 1st. Is there...

Does anyone know what the situation is with the Barletta to Spinazzola line? I had a look a month or so ago for dates in October and it was advertised as a regional train. I come back to look today, and it's a rail replacement bus. Seems to be that way from now until November, but then back to...

The title says it all really. If I have a travelcard and a Boundary Zone 6 to Ramsgate ticket, may I use SouthEastern HighSpeed services from St Pancras? Or would I have to pay a supplement?

I'm going to be travelling around bits of Italy in early-mid October, and I'm wondering how far in advance the timetable will be published and the tickets released. I'll be doing a couple of longer journeys on the Frecciarossa services which I'd like to book in advance. I'd also like to know...

I made an overnight journey from London to Beasdale. In the event, the ScotRail train from Glasgow was delayed by just over 30 minutes. I applied for compensation and have been granted £6.50. I had an Off Peak Return (London Terminals to Beasdale) with a Railcard that cost £130.20. The £6.50...

Hello folks, I'm planning to get the Caledonian sleeper. I'll have an off peak return from London to Mallaig. Outbound, I plan to get the Highland sleeper as far as Fort William, then continue on the next ScotRail service (about midday). I'll buy the ticket on the 14th and get the sleeper on...

Hello folks, I'm having a look at trains between Grenoble and Gap. Current timetables show no trains beyond Celles-Mens, with a bus from there to Gap. Into the new timetable (I've looked at various dates in Jan '22), the situation remains train then bus, but with the change at Vif. What's the...

I'll be starting a new job which requires a season ticket. I currently live in South London in zone 2 (I won't give the specific station) and I be commuting to Milton Keynes Central. As far as I can find, the only season ticket I can get is Milton Keynes to Travelcard Zones 1-6 which is £6368...

I post my Least Used Station visits in the Trips Section, but I write other stuff for my blog (https://felixunstructured.weebly.com/). I'll put updates for them here.

Hi, I've been offered a video interview for an Operational Planner role at Network Rail. It says that the questions are pre-recorded. The aim is to "allow the hiring team and your potential coworkers to get to know you better and faster than a basic phone screen would". What sort of questions...

Inspired by this comment: Restrictions: The journey must be entirely within Great Britian. No Banavie to Sospel journeys please. Please be as general as possible. For example, if Lelant Saltings to Barrow Haven required 4 changes (I haven't checked), so would any journey between the St Ives...

Split from the Coronavirus thread because it's becoming a discussion. You're going to have to provide evidence as to what you consider "making" the news before I can respond to it. Bulletins at the top of the hour on the World service start with "BBC News, I'm <person>" or "I'm <person> with...

It's being reported that a TGV has derailed while travelling from Strasbourg to Paris, near Ingenheim. 21 people are hurt, currently none have died. 1 person (I think the driver) is very seriously injured. Early news reports are blaming the collapse of an embankment.

When do I give up and go to the ombudsman? I emailed TPX on the 22nd of December about a delayed journey on the 17th of December. The journey was Llangynllo to Edinburgh via Crewe and Lancaster. The Lancaster to Edinburgh part was diverted to Glasgow, replacement road transport was provided...
