Don't forget also the personal allowance grab between 100K and ~125K, meaning someone pays a marginal rate of 60% tax between those two numbers. Plus NI...

This is useful to know. Thanks!

On these units, my preferred seat - for reasons of leg room and a desire to keep away from other people - is the single seat next to the accessible toilet. Is there any way to discern from viewing the front of the unit approaching the platform if this will be at the start of coach 2 or the end...

It is a paper ticket, purchased yesterday for travel today. Thanks for the advice. I'll travel to Victoria and take the tube. The extra journey time will give me ample opportunity to reflect on my carelessness.

I just absent mindedly purchased a Super Off Peak Day Single from Lingfield to Victoria. I should have selected London Terminals as I want to alight at London Bridge. Can I use this ticket for that journey given the price is identical?

Ah excellent. That was easier than expected. Thanks!

Via the Southern Railway website I bought advanced singles for myself and my 17 year old son to go from Kings Cross to Leeds and back on 9th September. Because he has a 16-17 saver, I had to add two journeys to the basket, one with a railcard and one without. On checkout, the system allocated us...

Thanks all for your thoughts!

Hello there. My 16 year old lad purchased an Off-Peak Day Return today (Monday 10th April) from Three Bridges to Chichester, using his 16-17 saver. Cost was £9.65. On the outward leg he went via Horsham. He wants to return this afternoon with a break of journey at Brighton. Is this route/break...

The weekend evening service from London to East Grinstead (2tph) is better than the weekday evening service (1tph). This is a post-covid situation. Is the railway company tacitly suggesting that more people travel at the weekends than commute during the week? If so, that seems wrong to me.

Good work by the repair teams! Obviously the site being close to Lingfield Station and to surrounding roads helped speed this temporary repair along.

Hi there: I hold a season ticket from East Grinstead to London Terminals. Last night, I headed home after a works do but was dismayed to find a bus replacement from Oxted because of planned overnight engineering works. The bus arrived at East Grinstead about 40 minutes later than the scheduled...

Ah thanks. I never realised that restriction applied to piddly little local journeys like this!

Hi Just tried to buy two Anytime Singles at 2.45pm from Hassocks to Brighton. The TVM gave a total of 9.60 without the railcard and 26.00 with. What did I do wrong?? Thanks!

Digital railcards are appropriate if you want to travel in the next 24-48 hours

Back in the site now. Same issue, but the error code has changed. Is it just a random number generator? Just rung the helpline again - more lift music and no indication if they are actually open and taking calls or not...

(Apologies if this is in the wrong forum) Wanted to ask about forumites experiences buying digital railcards. Bought one this afternoon. Never got the download code to add it to the app on my phone. Go to the website and it shows "Ordered" but clicking Manage Digital Devices just shows an error...

Why is this platform divided by such a long length of sturdy fence? I don't recall seeing a similar arrangement elsewhere on the network.

Apologies if this is a bit of a dumb query. I commute to London on the East Grinstead line. As you will know, the line is closed south of Lingfield because of a landslip. Today the situation was compounded by a points failure at Lingfield which meant trains were not running south of Oxted/Hurst...

In my view the whole thing should be converted to guided busway and then it could seamlessly be integrated with Southern Vectis. Imagine the delights of a smooth, quick journey between Ryde Pierhead and Shanklin with onward journies to Ventnor and West Wight. It could be dewightful !
