    Wrexham, Shropshire & Midlands Railway updates

    Also Caledonian Sleeper and, for small stretches, ScotRail. Plus freight, of course. And TfL (via London Overground) for some stretches.

    Delay Repay for yesterday

    Apply for Delay Repay from Avanti for £38.40. It was such a mess yesterday that no-one is going to care about the nuances.

    How close does a replacement bus stop need to be to a station?

    This is very strange. Wadhurst station is on the Tunbridge Wells-bound side of the road, and is easily served by RRBs. They just drive straight up the access road then out the other (it's a one way system, but it's in a more-or-less straight line and no tricky manouevres with a bus are...

    No Network railcard discounts on GWR advance tickets?

    My comment was about the rate of discount, I even highlighted it. Not about Advances with Network Railcards.

    No Network railcard discounts on GWR advance tickets?

    The GWR page states Of course, none of them offer 34% discount. They offer 33.4% discount. There was a massive exercise to check a year ago that websites were updated when the railcard discount was changed. Obviously this page escaped.

    Split ticket - delay rights

    Some TIS suppliers / retailers use a reduced interchange time (of 21 minutes), not in the data, between Kings Cross and St Pancras. Trainline and Silverrail are two, there may be more.

    "1000 extra seats" on transpennine through sheffield on Saturdays

    I'm surprised they didn't say 1 million extra seats on Saturdays over the next 20 years

    Expansion of LNER 70-min flex trial area ("Simpler Fares")

    The BR reservation system was not derived from sabre as far as I know. I’ve got the operating manual for ticket offices somewhere still.

    When I was speaking with the crew I was told it was the first time in seven years that an HST had appeared in Kent, though I didn’t ask for the details.

    LNER booking engine: misleading presentation

    The UI is terrible. People should stop making excuses for it. All they have to do is optimise it for their own trains and tickets - it’s not like it’s asking a challenge as trying to present all trains and tickets…

    The launch of a regular E-W services/historically, how were services launched as the railways were newly built?

    I think this is just private sector vs public sector. In the private sector there’s pressure to get a return on investment. In the public sector there isn’t. Nobody ever got sacked for not doing anything, or for being really slow. So, guess what?

    Havant to Eastbourne - via Uber App Failing

    It's preferring to route via Haywards Heath / Three Bridges on the way back from Eastbourne to Havant, as this is about 30 minutes quicker than going via Brighton, and using the replacement bus. Unfortunately the quicker route is not a valid route. On the way out from Havant to Eastbourne the...

    Is London Bridge to Waterloo East using Southeastern Trains a zone 1 journey?

    One set of gates is an entrance to / exit from national rail. The other is an entrance to / exit from the tube. In between is neither. There have been plans for many years for an exit to the street from here (avoiding going through Southwark tube station). But they have never come to fruition.
