neither!

I should be doing the Paignton Pudden, I know loads of people doing it! (people I met on forums and on previous 37 tours)

3rd class is available on many suburban trains as standard and exists on units such as Pacers, Notworkers, etc and consists of 3+2 seating and no catering is available. These trains occasionally convey 2nd class accomodation, however for simplification reasons this is branded as "1st" class, an exam...

Anyone have idea what the £999 ticket from Wick to Inverness is for???

Fares that no longer exist and have not been deleted (Putting £999 insures no-one will issue/buy them).

Does anyone know what traction will be used for this service? Class 90s and 67s. Although the 37s (which only ended officially last June) are used on the ABD/FTW portions occasionally. A 66 is not uncommon to take the lowland stock into GLC (happened both times I've been there), and 57 haulage from...

Prices for you two try out. PAD - Fishguard Hbr & PAD - Rosslaire Then tell me the restrictions ;) Ah yes, it's cheaper to go to Ireland than just to Fishguard :lol: . Barry Doe exposed this in Rail a while back. Can you just get that ticket, or do you have to get a ferry reservation at the same ti...

Unfortunately, they don't use Kings Cross. I'd not sure about this, but I don't think any of the platforms at KX is actually long enough for 16 coaches plus loco. Correct. P1/6 are just long enough to fit a regional Eurostar set in, but not for the sleeper. You can get the exact platform lengths fr...

if they have to divert trains off the WCML the standard practice is to go via Blackburn and the S&C. Does this standard "Settle diversion" mean that trains are reversed in direction? I believe Blackburn is normally a southward departure from Preston - or is there a loop round which would allow the ...

In that case I have no idea, because Southern use the code 'B1' for their CDRs. Southern also use the C4 restriction code. Pricebuster tickets are not valid on services from London Victoria or London Bridge departing betwee 16:45 and 19:15 Didn't see that before, but on closer inspection it appears...

Eh? Southern don't run out of Liverpool Street and the spelling of Liverpool and Victoria is hard to mix up... And yes I have seen the restriction printed as applying to Southern services. If it wasn't a travelcard then it was probably a cheap day return. In that case I have no idea, because Southe...

As I said the restrictions are set to keep people off the busy trains, although passenger numbers between York and Sheffield might be low, its possible they're high between Sheffield and Derby , even onwards to London. If so, why are Cheap Day returns valid on that service between Sheffield and Der...

I found this program interesting, but so far haven't found any information (about generally available tickets) that isn't already available online though one of the TOC websites. The TOC websites won't tell you what the restrictions are though! They force the customer to enter into a contract witho...

I've now found out that the last 2 northbound HT services coupled together somewhere north of King's Cross (I guess Peterborough or somewhere like that?), so it did run but was cancelled from King's Cross.

Its kept a secret as there can be a few ways of getting cheaper tickets, and companies don't really want to lose revenue. except they're hoping to gain revenue by imposing restrictions that are unfair in many cases. The restrictions are there to keep people off the commuter trains at peak times, if...

They've removed it now. Why the hell do they have to keep the fares, and all the conditions attached to them, such a secret? it wouldn't happen in any other industry.
