Hi all - looking for some help as finding conflicting info. My intended journey is Stourbridge Junction -> Rugby outward on 22/3 (around 9:30 dep) return 24/3 (around 10:00 dep). I intend to stop at Birmingham International (for the NEC for about 6 hours) on the way. There are advance tickets...

Hi. I am trying to get an advance fare from Kidderminster to Braintree for 5th November (arriving Braintree at 10:50). There seems to be no availability. I have checked and the fare setter is Chiltern. On their site you can select to get an alert, but the 5th November seems to be too soon to...

Hi, I was due to travel fairly long distance today on a business trip, with expenses paid. I booked my tickets last night through Trainsplit (there was actually no split, it turned out as two standard singles. They are just my preferred booking engine). This morning, I have woken up to the...

Hi, I'm looking at making a return journey Stourbridge Junction to Chester Road in August. I have looked at brfares, and an off-peak day return is £8.30 (I'm travelling on a Saturday). I remembered once seeing something about a West Mids day ranger kind of ticket - I have found the following...

Hi A family member has bought Mobile tickets through Trainline however his phone does not support the app (old SE, cannot update to new OS so cannot get the app). Is there a way to convert this to either an E-ticket (so I can print it) or even TOD so I can sort at a station for him?

Hi, I am in the early stages of planning a trip to Brighton over a weekend (Fri-Sun) in July. This involves a cross London connection. I am aware outward journey needs to be done in one go (I think) but you can split the return. As my ticket will incorporate a London bridge to Marylebone tube...

Hi, I have an upcoming journey on Sat 26th from Wolverhampton -> Manchester and back (day trip). I have just received an email from trainsplit advising the return I was booked on has now been cancelled. It advises me to catch the next available train - however I am wondering whether I can...

Hi, I am planning on utilising the first class upgrade option with CrossCountry on Feb 26th from Wolverhampton to Manchester. I have, however, noted that the t&c on food says Sandwiches are Complimentary for weekend journeys of 90 minutes or more. My journey is only 1h09mins - is it at all...

Hi all, I am trying to get some advance tickets for a return journey from Wolverhampton to Manchester on February 26th. I have looked on Crosscountry however it only seems to be offering the standard return - however we are now under the 12 week mark so thought they should be available? Does...

I have noticed recently two threads where people buy a season ticket between two close stations whilst using it for a much longer journey (Birmingham Moor Street to Snow Hill - journey of 0.5 miles by foot. It occurred to me that these surely must almost only be used by those travelling...

Hi, I got a PF this morning (£20) for not having a ticket between Kidderminster [KID] and Worcester Shrub Hill [WOS] on West Midlands Trains (WMT/WMR). Kidderminster station is currently going through a massive refurb and as such navigating your way around the station is difficult (temporary...

Hi, Just wondering what should have happened to me in this case, as I read not having your railcard is OK for first offence? I travelled from Ormskirk to Malvern Link, changing at Liverpool Central -> Liverpool Lime Street and Birmingham New Street. I had a young person's railcard (as was)...

Hi all - me again! I'm looking at booking a return journey for 2 adults no railcard (and a 4 year old) from WOP to BIT on Sunday 23/02/2020 (first day of WOP being open... hopefully!). I have tried to check fares through NRE website but keeps coming back as error. I know it needs a change at...

Due to weather I am looking at using the train tomorrow. I need to go Kidderminster -> Malvern Link then MVL -> Worcester (arriving before 9am) then Worcester-> MVL and MVL -> Kidderminster departing Worcester after 5pm. I appreciate it's peak in the morning. What's the best combo of tickets?

Hi, I had a journey today which included WMT and the WMT part didn't run meaning I was delayed by 28 minutes (although could have been a lot more if I was slower!). Just wondering who I submit to and which tickets to list. Itinerary as follows: 15/02/2020 Sandwell to Wolverhampton on Single...

Hi, I am travelling from Worcestershire Parkway (provided it's open!) to Manchester via Brum on 15th Feb (07:33 -> 10:00). I am interested in First Class upgrade on Brum -> Manchester leg @ £12.50. 2 questions really... is it worth it (what do you get?) and also as I'm split ticketing at...

Hi, I am looking at getting a train on 15th February to Manchester, arriving before 10:30, and leaving Sunday 16th in the morning. I am in Kidderminster, however the line is bustitute between Stourbridge and Birmingham. I am looking at either driving to Sandwell and getting the train from...

Hi, I'm looking at booking a train for tomorrow (15/01/2020) going from Warwick Parkway to London. Need to arrive in London by Midday but leave between the 4pm -> 7pm peak time. Looking at fares, it seems that this is prohibited on Super Off Peak return. Is it possible to somehow split somewhere...
