Does anyone have current diagrams for class 158s going through Newcastle please? Asking for a friend! :lol:

Following on from this thread: https://www.railforums.co.uk/threads/trivia-highest-mileage-diagram-in-a-day.160737/ What is the lowest (non-zero - yes - where the train actually moves!!!) unit diagram in a day? Let's start with the 319 pair on a Saturday that just goes from Bletchley Carriage...

For those who know better than I do about the franchise requirements of GTR, are they breaching their franchise with their appalling cancellation of services without warning on the West London Line (Milton Keynes - Watford Junction - Clapham Junction - East Croydon)? Last night and this morning...

Does anyone know: 1) Which TIS* do London Overground stations use? (North London Line stations, possibly Willesden Junction) 2) How to issue Rovers & Rangers on the TIS from Question 1? (I am assuming the staff member will have never needed to do this before!) 3) If there is an easier way to...

Will be collecting two Daysaves. I presume the Southeastern ticket machines will not be able to print them so are there Southern ones there?

And can you explain it? :D

Due to bridge works at Benfleet, c2c trains are suspended between Leigh and Pitsea with alternative routes set up: They have worked with local buses and Greater Anglia to ensure people can still get to London - as their tickets are cheaper than Greater Anglia's people who travel to GA stations...

Mod Note: Split from this thread. I work in a shop which has a phone at the tills. If you call the number listed on our website, the phone will ring, and ring, and we will not answer it. We do not answer that phone unless it is an internal call because 99% of calls are time wasting and...

So on the 5th September I went to the Olympic Park, where I found out it would be cheaper to use Boundary Zone tickets rather than London Games tickets. So I go to Hatfield station with my mother, two Paralympic travelcards in hand, and ask for "Two off-peak day returns to Boundary Zone 6...

Calling all First Capital Connect experts! Does anyone know if units 317339 and 317347 have first class accommodation? I asked FCC myself and they said as the service was booked to have first class "it should be there somewhere"... but I could not find any although I did not walk all the...

Don't count on being able to get a Hull Trains service if you were going to get one! http://www.nationalrail.co.uk/service_disruptions/sa31e0faa28d452b80a1f8767569d24e/details.html This is "due to a shortage of available trains"... Posted in General Discussion but perhaps it could move...

So I turned up to the station with my request, not too hard. A Hatfield - Boundary Zone 6 and an inboundary Travelcard. Decided to test FCC and get the guy who I knew is awkward. First he didn't know what inboundary meant and then I saw he issued a ticket to the first station in Zone 6 instead...

I was at Waterloo the other day and saw 2 159s in adjacent platforms. One had a guard next to it who was issuing tickets for an imminently-departing Exeter service (15:20 on Friday), however the destination blind on the train said DREM. The guard looked like a good man, giving out advice and he...

Today I took a trip around London to try and see the diverted Virgin trains down the Greenford branch and ended up going via both Windsor stations! There's some photos here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/0causton0/sets/72157629981928821/ :)

Off Peak *and* Peak Travelcard prices with Y-P discount from Herts Uni+BusPk (typing in HERTS should bring it up, if not, they've removed the station!) to London Zones 1-6. I was going to book it through telesales (Virgin) but I got transferred to an operator who informed me that they could...

I want to go on a couple of day trips this summer, and I reckon it's not too late to get some good advance deals on tickets... any good deals that I can use to get away? Looking for the cheapest journeys :) Don't mind if the train's not the fastest on the route No more than a couple of hours...

This is a bit of a long shot, but the TfL spec Wayfarer TG150s play a short series of beeps after issuing a paper ticket in the sequence HIGH-LOW-HIGH-HIGH. Does anyone know where I can find a copy of this sound, either recorded from a TfL ticket machine or from any other Wayfarers if they do it...

Sounds like the bus drivers who instantly 'reject' any ticket with a different operator's logo on it, without even reading it! (Usually when I try to board with an "Explorer" ticket - the point of which is that you can use it on just about any bus!) Although I do see drivers check the...

I have finally found the working location for the Forum in Hatfield which has a ticket machine but I never knew where the tickets were issued from as have never used it (HERTS UNI&BUSNPK, J631) but I was wondering whether there is any restriction to the bus part. Taking the CDR to London...

Any way of getting this a bit cheaper? HAT to London Victoria - getting there for 09:30ish this Friday, coming back at about 21:15- to use up our Southern 90% off tickets. It will be me (16-25 railcard, Oyster card w/ railcard discount) and my mother (adult, not old enough for any discount!)...
