    West Midlands train service cancelled - refund questions

    I wonder if I might please call on the collective wisdom here. Two or three weeks ago, two friends booked a West Midlands Trains journey for today, Stafford to Euston, which I think involved a change at Rugby. They had an email either last night or early today advising that the train was...

    Parking at Crewe Station

The ticket apparently says it is valid via any permitted route, if that is relevent to the query. Simply, he wants...

    Parking at Derby Station

    Can anyone advise me if there is a long stay car park on the Pride Park side of Derby Station, or are there just the two at the front? And how do they work, are they pay on exit, or by using a machine in the station prior to leaving, and finally, do they take plastic or just real money...
