    Glasgow to London - 2nd July

    I’m attempting to travel from Glasgow to London on 2nd July. There don’t seem to be any tickets available, except for travelling via Edinburgh. I can get a ticket for 3rd July. Is this due to engineering works or some other reason? Am I better to cut my losses and book a flight now?

    First Great Western Groupsave on Rugby Days

    Thanks to this forum, I have read about FGW's Groupsave and how it is not valid on high demand dates, such as rugby internationals. I am going to go to the Heineken Cup Final on 24th May in Cardiff. I can see that the tickets are for sale for that date and a Groupsave ticket can be bought...

On Sunday we'll...

    Via London / London Terminals

    I buy a season ticket from North Dulwich to Elephant and Castle. I usually travel from Tulse Hill which, as such a journey involves travelling through TUH, is permitted. My office has moved and I might start to travel to City Thameslink instead. As it is London Terminals rather than...

    Valid ticket does not open gate.

    Last week I was going North Dulwich to Elephant and Castle for most of the week but did 2 days Tulse Hill to Elephant and Castle. In order to get from North Dulwich to Elephant and Castle I have to change at Tulse Hill so the journey is shorter originating at Tulse Hill. The barriers at Tulse...

    I have to travel to Dublin on Friday in a last minute rush. I want to travel from Tulse Hill to Dublin Irish Ferries, taking the 7.10 out of Euston. There are no options to buy this ticket on the train selling websites, only the later crossing. I have checked Irish Ferries' website and...

    Clapham Junction - London Bridge via Tulse Hill

    Hi, I realise similar questions have been asked several times already but there seems to be conflicting information and some of it is quite detailed. Given that a direct train runs from Clapham Junction to London Bridge via Crystal Palace, can a monthly ticket from Clapham Junction to London...
