Hi,

I am collecting rail ticket wallets, (the normal ticket sized two or three compartment ones).

I've got around 20 at the moment, but would really appreciate it if anyone could point me in the direction of where I could obtain the following wallets, (and whether some even exist, indicated by ??).

Virgin Trains - (Red)
London Midland - (black)
First Capital Connect (multi coloured/purple)
First Great Western (??)
CrossCountry (??)
wagn (??)
South Eastern
Southern
London Overground
Chiltern
East Coast (??)
Scotrail (the white one with the larger scotrail logo on it, not the new 'Advance' membership type)
Arriva Trains Wales
Merseyrail Electrics (?? not sure they've ever had their own)
Silverlink
Island Line (pre-SWT)

Also, if anyone happened to have any other ticket wallets, of the same size, (e.g. the two/three compartment railcard-type holder wallets), if you want to sell them, PM me and name your price!! (unable to swap).

Again, if anyone doesn't have them, but knows somewhere I could get them from, I'd really appreciate your help! E-mailing customer services doesn't seem to work really... apparently they don't have them in their offices....

Thank you!!!

AFAIK LM use standard NR ones. I've never seen them around in the office, just stockpiles of blue NRs.

I did not know you could get TOC flavoured ones :shock:

I take it you have to get them from stations run by the relevant TOC?

I got a VT red one at Euston in January, and I think the East Coast ones are limited. I got one at Wakefield Westgate but that was a few months back now, when they first took over.

I will try to contact EC and try to get hold of one. I will let you know what I get!
Has anyone got the details for a direct e-mail address for EC?

I don't want to give as much info as they want for the online forms.

Thanks

That would be much appreciated. Just let me know how much :)

It's alright, I'm not asking any money for them - as Southern and FCC give them out on request, it won't cost me anything. Just need to PM me an address to send them to. :)

I don't think they do ticket wallets; I've always been given National Rail ones. However.

EC do have ticket wallets, quite strange really, a totally new design of wallet from the other TOC's that I've seen.. can't really describe it, though!

I think I have some First Great Eastern ones, Blue or the Silver www.yourtrain.co.uk ones somewhere - as well as the Season Ticket special "Welcome" ones in the cardboard pack somewhere, but not sure where - having had a clear out.

Plus a few more, but will have to dig.

Southeastern Highspeed were giving out Southeastern Highspeed grey ticket wallets at Ebbsfleet Intl when I was there in Jnr.

Of course, PTEs often have their own design. I have a blue Travel South Yorkshire wallet.

Picked up a Southern wallet for you this morning - the gentleman at the desk gave me two, so if anybody else wants the spare then it is available! :)

No I didn't sorry :?

Seems like another prob like the NWM Challenge with the PM's!

Have you still got the EC one?

The only thing I received off of them were two paper pouches (type you get with online delivery orders for tickets from EC. :( )

thanks
