    MG11 rather than Penalty Fare

    Complain to the DFT maybe about the closed ticket office? EMT have been pulled about this before, https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/210780/emt-breach-notice-17-june-2013.pdf

    RMT to ballot EMT staff over pay and arrangements.

    They will be part of the Nottingham security team. No security at Nottingham durring the blockade, so they have been placed at other stations.

    Taxpayers stump up £110,000,000 to keep EMT in profit

    The problem with EMT is the cash cow which is megabus. Instead of passengers buying off peak or advance tickets, millions in revenue is lost every year and syphoned in to stagecoaches coffers! Over the network over the year what the government has subsidise has gone to Souters back pocket.

    Scarborough to Gillingham (Kent)

    Megabus plus from York sounds good, but the journeys are sometimes too early to connect by train.

    First win Intercity West Coast franchise

    First group share price is down by almost 8%. Maybe even the shareholders don't think the sums add up? Stagecoach shares are up slightly.

    Train route more than twice as quick by road

    Are we allowed to say Scarborough to Whitby? :) About an hour on a bus, 40 mins by car and today by rail 4 hours on average. Before they ripped the line up during the 60's I'm sure the journey was still over 1.5 hours.

    Travel from Paris to Eurodisney.

    Got three days in Paris, booked my FIP fares on Eurostar, and thanks to the SKY TV offer we have 2 free tickets to Eurodisney. Our hotel is based near Paris Du Nord station, has anyone have any tips of how to connect to Eurodisney. Is there a regular service and roughly how much it costs...

    Nottingham Tram

    Station street to the side of Nottingham station is closed one way from today due to the tram works. Things are slowly happening.

    Round Robin Ticket (specifically East Yorkshire)

    Might not be valid on the EMT service due to the following quote from national rail. However I doubt you would be refused travel.

    Another new smartcard scheme: Walrus

    Our EMT depot has the readers, but only 10! Can't tell you who has beenhaving readers being issued to them them, we have not been issued them for use in the station. When the trial has ended I'm sure there will be one in every Advantix bag.

    Another new smartcard scheme: Walrus

    EMT are trailing theirs at the moment. All the hardwear is installed and ready to go. However you can only use the card on EMT services. NOT to DBY for example, you would have to use the EMT service and not Crosscountry.
