I have had travelcards rejected on a few occasions by the barriers at the South Bank entrance to Blackfriars. Again it worked at the other barriers I passed through on the same day.

The problem is that this journey is for work so can only be booked through the corporate booking system. It just says no fares available so there is no way to actually buy a through ticket. It looks like the only tickets it is offering are the much more expensive “via Oxford” fares with a...

My colleague was trying to book tickets from Moreton in Marsh to Birmingham New Street via the corporate booking site. It shows no fares available alll day so would not offer any trains to book. On National Rail enquiries and the forum site I see something similar if set to not split. BrFares...

How does the 70 minutes before/after your booked train work with stations such as Almnouth or Harrogate where the LNER services are usually every 2 hours ?

I usually get a travelcard for a work journey that involves 1 return trip on the underground from kings cross plus the journey on GN. It is 10p more than the equivalent ticket issued to the appropriate underground zones that only permit 1 return underground journey. If there is an issue with the...

The travel policy at my previous workplace (civil service) was that any delay repay due for corporate travel should be paid back to the department travel budget. In practice it was accepted that delays for a journey returning home then we could keep any delay payment. But if delayed in work...

Thanks

That unpublished restriction is new, as I was able to show itineraries and book one for earlier departures for travel last month. I booked on the LNER app as I had some credit on my account but NRE were also showing the same itinerary at the time. Noe of the sites will show earlier departures now.

I will be travelling this week from Letchworth Garden City to Leamington Spa, returning on the same day. The journey planners are not showing any itineraries for the super off peak return for services departing Letchworth before 0930. I purchased this ticket for a journey last month from the...

Can you print it at work? Otherwise try your local public library to use their scanning/printing facilities.

Thanks. I have booked with a reservation on the 0907 Euston to Crewe. The 0846 LNR service from Euston is the backup option. I’ll contact Avanti and see what they say.

I will be travelling from Letchworth to Church Stretton on a Friday. The off peak return £100.30 has validity 9I which states there are no restrictions from Euston on Fridays. I can get an itinerary on several sites using the 0910 Euston to Crewe. Train split will give one for the 0907...

We have to book travel and hotels etc via the corporate travel agent. For train tickets it currently issues a TOD code to collect from a TVM at a station. There used to be a ticket printer at reception for a couple of the main sites so we could collect tickets from the office but this option was...

I know in the past the TVMs at some GN stations would by default offer the London Terminals fare even if the selected destination is London Blackfriars or London Bridge. The London Thameslink fare was also listed as a higher price option but most people would just select the default cheapest...

There are also route 508 services every 2 hours from Windermere station via Kirkstone Pass, Ullswater to Penrith. Depart Windermere at Xx:25 on the odd hours, last bus 19:25 If the Settle & Carlisle line is running OK, there are a few buses each day from Appleby to Penrith. Langwathby...

The time it takes depends which part of St Pancras is involved. E.g. I have done Southeastern platforms to Kings Cross platform 9 in 2-3 minutes. However, transferring from An EMR arrival at St Pancras high level to Kings Cross platform 0 with luggage took about 15 minutes (partly due to the...

Thank you for your replies. I will pass on the TfW Passenger Assistance number so they can call a couple of days before their travel date. I believe they are being collected from Saundersfoot station but I will check.

I am loooking at options for 2 elderly relatives in their mid-80s for travelling from Leominster to Saundersfoot in September. The TfW site says that reservations open 6 weeks in advance so I don’t think they have opened yet. They were planning to travel out on Saturday 10 September but there...

Until 2018 I had an annual season ticket to Potters Bar for over 10 years. When the ticket barriers were installed along the route The ticket operated the barriers at Potters Bar, Hatfield, Stevenage, Hitchin and Letchworth without any problems. It was always rejected at the barriers at Welwyn...
