    Caledonian Sleeper priv fares

    They do appear to be released randomly, depending on the date you could leave it a couple of days & try again. Alternately depending on the destination you could try a different destination eg aberdeen instead of inverness then use your priv from aberdeen to inverness for a daytime train connection.

    Stopping short at Newport on an advance to Cardiff Central.

    Think this is the best approach, unlikely to have a problem, complain if necessary to resolve. Press would enjoy supporting any complaint. If pushed you could offer to buy the single Cardiff to Newport for an easy life!

    FIP coupons Italy GB Staff

    I was recently charged €8 supplement for travel from Ventimiglia to Genova on an Italian intercity train. Was this correct or should the ticket office have only charged me a reservation fee. (Interail was showing €3.50 for the same journey)?

    Splitting tickets at a London zone boundary

    Using West Drayton instead of a boundary zone 6 is strictly not valid with a travelcard which is why I believe the site is directing you to stopping trains. Actual GWR practice seems that they accept them as they are often sold by GWR ticket offices instead of zone 6 tickets

    UK Britrail Pass

    My only concern is that if a brit rail pass is used for commuting for an extended period the customer will be challenged. Therefore it is important that they are fully aware of the terms & conditions & are able to clarify if challenged. e.g. "Purchase Restrictions: Pass holders must be non-UK...
