    Salisbury to London Season

    London Bridge would have been very useful and saved me adding the Travelcard to get to Bank (I'm actaully going to St Katherine Docks), but I see that no trains from Waterloo East are stopping there between 8am and 9am, presumably because of the redevelopment works. Perhaps I'll just invest in...

    Salisbury to London Season

    I'm looking at getting a season ticket from Salisbury to London Zone 1 (Bank). Are any of you knowledgeable folks aware of a ticket valid for that route cheaper than the standard please? I've had a bit of a play on the season ticket calculator but can't find anything. Also I've had a look...

    Redhill to Dorking via Horsham - Glitch or Valid Route?

    I've previously travelled to Dorking from Salfords and noticed that NRE offers intineraries via Redhill or Horsham, both for the same fare. Today I'm going to Horsham and found the ticket is significantly more expensive than a Dorking one. So a bit of playing realed NRE will offer me an...

    Up to 55% fare increase on Cotswold line

    Slightly off topic, I got issued a super offpeak return from Worcester Stations to Salfords (Surrey) last night at £36.95 (with Netowrk Railcard) - instead of the usual £38.60 I usually pay for a return. It appears to be this fare adjusted for the railcard discount...

    Hereford to Ockley via Evesham and Horsham Return

    Hi, I'm travelling from Hereford to Littlehaven this Thursday (27th March), returning on Tuesday (1st April). A search on National Rail Enquiries for returns to Ockley via Evesham, which is nearly a tenner cheaper than the cheapest Littlehaven ticket, throws up a route on the return leg...

    ATW lack of Class 175 first class seating

    Having travelled this route as a commuter from Leominster to Newport for about 15 months until recently, I thought I'd pick up on a couple of points based on my experiences, in no particular order. Regarding reliability, imo reliability was poor although they usually used to get to their...

    Air conditioning

    Hah! The climate control on the 175's is a marvellous thing. The favourite setting seems to be both the heating and the a/c on on - meaning you're cold on one side and roasting on the other. Personally I like the cool breeze and generally pick a seat near the draft if I can - usually the...

    Cardiff Monorail?

    Unless it's being built for free, I don't really understand the point of it. There's already a train from Queen Street every 10 minutes or so, along with the Bay Car bus service. You can cycle it in a little over 5 minutes using the Cardiff version of the Boris Bike scheme. Another vanity...

    The real facts behind the ATW potential strike please

    Looks like they are planning that as well as the strikes, hopefully it wasn't something I said. http://www.walesonline.co.uk/cardiffonline/cardiff-news/2011/02/22/train-drivers-hit-back-at-media-portrayal-91466-28209836/

    The real facts behind the ATW potential strike please

    I can't see this having been posted previously in the thread... http://www.railforums.co.uk/showpost.php?p=572155&postcount=27 Looks like aslef drivers have changed their minds on the deal, perhaps due to RMT drivers refusing it? While I can understand drivers not being happy about...
