I travel on various bus routes, some you can follow online, others not. What does a bus company have to do to provide this information, and will there be a cost to the bus company? All the buses appear to have the same equipment, i.e. a scanner to read the QR code on my ticket.

A couple of pictures from my daily exercise. Does anyone know what is being done? There appears to be lots of social separating and a lot of vans/personal transport vehicles in a car park up the road. I guess you cannot transport lots of people in a single van.

I have found a fare of £55 with SRN railcard. Off-Peak Rtn. My understanding is it is only valid via Dumfires. Outward journey is Monday 2 July, needs to arrive Manchester early afternoon. Too late to return home on Monday evening, but could a break of journey be OK at a stop along the route...

I am spending 12 days in Apledoorn later this week. Does anyone know if there are any bus, train or both tickets that cover specific areas? Like a day travel card or a weekly travel card. Any transport suggestions would be most welcome.

I am struggling a bit with this. The offer at https://www.tpexpress.co.uk/special-offers/club-55 would suggest I could book a ticket from Preston to Newcastle via Manchester, all TPE route. I am trying to book out on Sunday 13th, 11:58 from Preston, with a change at Manchester. It doesn't...

The previous thread here is now closed, it goes back to 2012. I plan to travel London to Preston this Sunday afternoon (5 March 2018). I plan to purchase a Standard Off Peak Return. Does anyone know if this will be valid in First Class on Sunday, without the need to purchase a First Upgrade?

Just seen something different at York. A teanage couple exiting a Grand Central train via the door window.Doors had been locked and they had been trying the handle. Bags out, head first out the window and roll over. Impressive acrobatics by the lad, the girl struggled, I think he helped her out...

Hello Just about to send a dozen old Videos off to the tip unless anyone is interested in them. Dated from the mid 80's. Titles such as Railscene 1 to 4, Great Western BBC Video, and a few American ones. I tried local railway societies, but they were not interested.

At a Northern railway station I asked to purchase a PlusBus. I had previously purchased on-line tickets for an out and back journey. I showed my out ticket, but the ticket seller wanted to see my return ticket before proceeding to sell me the PlusBus ticket. Are there restrictions on only...

I am booking an advance ticket and I want to add extra time to change trains for local train. National Rail journey planner allows various options (half an hour up to two hours), but when I go to book the ticket, it reverts back to the recommend times with no option to add extra time on the...

The National Rail Enquiries website indicates that a Strathclyde PTE DayTripper can be purchased from a staffed station. But the ticket clerk at my Northern station wasn't able to find it on his machine. Does anyone know if this is possible, and if so, could I give the ticket clerk an...
