With all of the talk that HS2 might never reach Euston, is there any reason why it can't feed into the Elizabeth Line and serve central London that way?

Had a day in that there London on Tuesday, went around using contactless and had no issues other than a journey from Battersea Power Station to Bank, having touched out at Waterloo using the gate line and following signs to the W&C there is no further gate line to get back in and must've...

I was on the 1953 Paddington to Hereford train last night, despite being announced that it would stop at Worcester Foregate Street some way into the journey they announced that they wouldn't indeed be stopping there and passengers would need to alight at Worcester Shrub Hill instead. Why would...

https://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/service/gb-nr:G37188/2023-05-09/detailed#allox_id=0 This train stops at Swindon to pick up passengers only. How do they stop them getting off though?

Just watched this two-parter on Netflix. It was a decent enough film but I can't get past the actual railway scenes. Is it safe to assume that the WCML was four track at the time albeit with no overhead wires? I think they shot this on the Keighley and Worth Valley preserved line. They even had...

What is the best way with the least walking? I see Victoria Line to Seven Sisters then out of the station to National Rail but it's two seperate stations? Also Euston Square to Liverpool Street then direct to White Hart Lane. It's Overground so I don't need to buy a ticket, is that right? Just...

It's all a game isn't it? What would happen if there wasn't a stock market?

I've got a holiday booked at the end of the month. I've decided not to go now for health reasons. I can get a refund on my accomodation but where do I stand with my flights? Outbound is Easyjet and return is with Jet2. Will I completely lose my money?

I'm thinking of going on a holiday to Spain, near to Malaga. There appears to be a railway between my resort and Malaga Airport and Malaga itself which is handy. However I've looked on trainline for times and prices and it's coming back with no services. Is there a problem with the line to...

https://www.gloucestershirelive.co.uk/news/cheltenham-news/new-railway-line-park-ride-3871538 So, someone explain to me why this wouldn't be a good thing? It would require approximately 1km of new railway, would be a great option for race days and could be used to turn around London services...

https://www.transportfever2.com/gameplay-video-and-pre-order/ I'm loving the look of this game but can't seem to find a hard copy of it, it only seems to be available to download via Steam. Am I missing something?

Has there ever been any suggestion of connecting it to the national rail network? It seems to be an equal distance to the mainline as Manchester is. I suspect building that busway in through the south of the city has pretty much killed any chance anyhow :(

I've asked this question elsewhere with disappointingly predictable responses. If you're going to reply, don't be that person! ================ What are your experiences with this? Just been on holiday to Turkey and for the second year running out of 100 channels there was only BBC World News...

Just been on my holibobs to Turkey and flew into Antalya and and convinced that I flew over a railway line but try as I might can't find it on google maps. We flew due south onto the western runway at Antalya and the line looked to go SEE to NWW.

Monday October 7th. I've been looking for an advance fare on this train at 20.00ish on this date and although other trains around it are reduced this one isn't. Is there going to be a reduced fare or am I going to have to pay full fare?

I don't get it. So they've built an expensive tunnel through the north west suburbs with huge gaps between several of the stops. All the stations seem to be at shopping malls.

I'm going up to that there London in March with the specific aim of taking a few decent photos on the Underground network, inspired by TubeMapper. Can anyone think of anywhere decent that I might go? I'm thinking trains through the shed at Queens Park, overlooking Morden station from the bridge...

I'm going to Havant in a few weeks time but want to spend some time in Portsmouth during the day. I'm driving so will be looking for somewhere to park and get the train into Portsmouth Harbour but don't want to go to a station and find a commuter filled car park at 11am. Anywhere local with a...

OK, I've done a search and nothing seems to cover my query so, what is it all about? It's very handy. Who does it, why does it exist and who provides all of the information? I'm not joking when I say it's the only thing I use my mobile phoe for!

Twice now I've been to Birmingham New Street with CrossCountry and twice they gone the wrong way in (straight on at Kings Norton) instead of via University. Is this the done thing now?
