    IBM (Halt) Closure & Possible Re-opening

    Was in Paisley this morning for work so decided to take a quick trip to IBM in the afternoon. All rather strange but I bumped into a few people on the site. Someone was walking their dog and two others in high viz were walking around (security maybe?). No one I passed seemed to care I was there...

    Passengers ‘striking’

    Most observant! This thread sought out to determine whether or not it was legal for passengers not to show their tickets. Any yet we've ended up talking about whether or not a driver had a drink. The substance of the thread hasn't been dealt with since the first page, so on the assumption...

    Delay Repay - Missed Connection

    My advice is always to email your delay repay claim where your journey includes a leg not on the Virgin Trains network - do not use the online form. The online form for delay repay claims will not recognise stations not served by Virgin, forcing the customer to enter only the Virgin Trains...

    Special Offers Discussion

    For those of us using tokens from Trinity Mirror newspapers they are the same design as they have been for some time now, and look just like the tokens in Karl's picture. The colour does look slightly lighter than last time around, but to be honest no two tokens are ever the same colour anyway...
