    Free weekend travel on Chiltern Railways for monthly or longer season ticket holders

    Hello By 'free weekend travel', should I presume the season ticket holder is only entitled to free travel on Saturdays and Sundays, and not on Bank Holiday Mondays? Thanks

    Hello I have a Peterborough to Huntingdon (full price ticket) and Huntingdon to Boundary Zone 4 (with gold card discount) ticket route any permitted for today. I have an annual zones 1-4 travelcard for the journey from zone 4 to Kings Cross. Can I use it on an East Coast train from...

    Season Ticket Benefit Query

    Thanks for that - do you by any chance know if Chiltern are able to sell zones 2-4 annual travelcards? The reason I ask is because Chiltern don't have any zone 2 stations in London, but have an excellent deal where you can get free weekend travel on their entire network with any annual season...

    Help for East Coast - what do do when credit card is lost

    Hi I had booked an East Coast ticket using Print@Home using a credit card which I had lost and its replacement has arrived. It states on the ticket that the credit card is needed for verification while travelling. I would appreciate if anyone could advise whether I need to approach any...

    Validity of London to Holyhead SVR on WSMR

    Now I am totally confused! I saw the following fares for the Friday 8th August (I prefer this day since I can then get the 0645 Marylebone to Wrexham service). Both options include a change between WSMR and Arriva Trains Wales, so I am bewildered as to which operator is charging the excess fare...

    Validity of London to Holyhead SVR on WSMR

    Shambles it is indeed! I followed Ascot's suggestion of London Marylebone to Holyhead via Tame Bridge Parkway, and the WSMR route is valid, however it says multiple tickets may be required. When I clicked on the fare details, it indicates a Saver is valid on both WSMR and other options, but the...

    Validity of London to Holyhead SVR on WSMR

    Cheers for all the posts :) I would like to know if it is indeed true that if I travel on a Saturday, the routeing from Marylebone via WSMR is valid because there are no trains on the WCML? Because most passengers certainly would not want to get a replacement bus/coach when there is a viable...

    Validity of London to Holyhead SVR on WSMR

    Would a return portion of a SVR return from Holyhead to London Terminals be valid on the WSMR between London and Wrexham General, where interchange possibilities for Holyhead can be made? Also, if there are restrictions associated with this ticket, what is the earliest departure time from...

    Hello Gareth

    The following post is on behalf of Gareth Hale: Dear RailUK, I said I have gone and I wont be coming back, and I also said I am a man of my words, and I am sticking to it. The reason I won’t be coming back is as follows: Most of you are an immature bunch who cannot tolerate pacer fans...

    Credit card fee on Thetrainline.com

    When I was booking a MML Advance C return ticket to Sheffield from London, it displayed the correct total of £7.90 in total. However, after I input my credit card details it charged me a fare of £9.40 stating that there is a £1.50 credit card fee. There is no mention of this before I pay...

    New buses in peterborough

    Speaking of loud buses, any bus can be loud if there is something wrong with the exhaust or engine. For vintage buses (anything built in the late 1970s-1980s), the best place IMO is Birmingham (and Walsall). The following vehicles are interesting: Chase Coaches - ex-London Leyland...

    The New 24!

    Speaking of Marshall bodied buses, was Thorpes' MLF 122 originally intended for First? The reason I ask is that the interior resembles a First bus with the purple flooring (and it is a Marshall).

    The New 24!

    You can get a very short Dart in London with two doors. First call them DM's, and they look quite odd: http://www.bus-photo.net/pictures/b3/1220.jpg

    Vasaline

    Finally someone has something sensible to say.... Not everyone gets these sick jokes, so why not have a bit of respect for those who don't? Only living in London for the past three years has enabled me to understand all those sex-based jokes, otherwise I'd have been as innocent as Gareth. So...

    £50 fine for dropping....a fruit salad wrapper?!

    The wardens most probably won't try and catch a gang of hooded youths, because they will be too scared to even approach them! So they pick on an innocent-looking, humble young lad. No wonder teenagers go around in groups/gangs - because even the law enforcers are too scared to go near them.
