South Western Railway launches first intersex inclusive train Full article here: https://www.dorsetecho.co.uk/news/23415847.south-western-railway-launches-first-intersex-inclusive-train/

I'm wanting to book a ticket tonight using the Southern web site in case I decide not to travel tomorrow, and I can use their nice and simple refund process if I don't collect the tickets Two barriers - 1) I can't get the web portal (on 2 different browsers) to show me any 1st class fares -...

So as above, in an area that is notionally a PF area, the entire journey does have 1st class on (I think all) trains. There is a valid ticket Saver in old parlance (so the off peak 1 month Return) - this is available as a Standard fare - I can can find out how to buy this variation. What is...

I just want to check some things to make sure I understand correctly. Please assume all travel is within the Gold Card area/ participating TOC and is outside of 04.30-09.29 (Mon-Fri). A) Cheapest Gold Card? I have an SWR smart card, so I suppose I could load the Gold Card on there to save wear...

SWR have cancelled their contract with Elior to provide on-board catering and today Elior started the official (minimum) 45 day consultation period prior to making redundancies. The official union representation is from RMT and the next meeting with Elior and RMT is Thursday 10 December. This...

Is a normal any permitted route saver valid on the Stansted Express? (e.g Bournemouth to Stansted Airport SVR, after the morning peak restrictions)

As an SWR customer, I'm interested to see what this means - is it a change for the better (for customers / RMT / staff generally).

** I can't seem to find the 4B code on NRE - I can find a B4 though ** I'm trying not give the specific journey, but hopefully am providing enough detail to make the query understandable. If I buy a SVR with restriction code 4B, then brfares.com shows that there is an easement that allows the...

Has anyone got of of these yet? https://citymapper.com/pass/super It seems to be for my purposes a saving on the Zone 1+2 travelcard (paper) I would get. My questions are does it have the advantages of a normal paper travelcard in particular 1) when I am split ticketing I don't need to...

I'd like to know whether or not I'm correct before I write a complaint letter (or conversely an apology letter!). Relevant Information I have a Zone1-2 Travelcard and a 16-25 Railcard I travelled from West Brompton (WBP) to East Croydon (ECR) (and because of the time I took the train, this...

It struck only knowingly having ever been in one, that these are ridiculous and must surely be unenforceable. I'm now even sure what their purpose really is, as surely that's what a Penalty Fare is for? I have only very recently realised that the Tram area outside East Croydon is a CTA, this...

From http://www.dorsetecho.co.uk/news/16372502.south-western-railway-franchise-could-be-under-threat/

Can someone who knows what they are doing and with access to current valid fare data lookup some fares for me please. I have used from the data.atoc.org site NFM29 just now and am seeing what I expect (and which tells me fares are valid until May 2018). I've also used brfares.com (again I'm...

SWR are reporting intermittent problems with some ticket machines this morning across their network. AFAIK it affected some ticket offices too. I wonder if for me the complete lack of a fare for my usual journey (in ticket office and on board) is a byproduct of this problem. I'll see this...

This code is showing a bit oddly on brfares, basically it seems to be listing the wrong stations in the unpublished restrictions area (stations listed wrong way around for the 2 Weymouth/Exeter trains)- might be related to the other post re the change of code from 8A to XA I think its worth...

Reading a few threads on here has bought the following idle thought to my head. On a ticket that allows break of journey, how many times is it possible to break a journey? So for example a Penzance to London Anytime First Return is £409.00, ticket validity is 5 days on the outward part, return...

So as a little bit of fun I'm trying to see if anyone else has had this happen to them (possibly a Southern commuter?) I am on an amazing streak of trains that have yet to be on time - every single SWR train I have travelled on since the start of the franchise (including the blocade) has...

So I've been under the impression for weeks now that during the blockade that amongst the few train running the whole way with fairly minor alterations are the Weymouth-Waterloo Services (additional stops, about 10 minutes extra journey time, depart London earlier than normal) Published...

So I'm now fairly certain this is an actual issue, so just mentioning it in case it affects anyone else adversely. It would appear that the newer SWT ticket machines (the rubbish blue ones that only allow pre-paid collection and a tiny range of tickets to be sold) are not encoding travelcards...

As per the subject, am trying to buy a weekly season ticket online ( have photo card) and collect TOD, can't find out how to do this online on the sites I have tried. Any suggestions? Buying from machine I think is not an option, as I think it doesn't offer the ticket I want from previous...
