    Delay Repay for RDG to WDT Annual season ticket

    Their train broke down in the core this afternoon, but they will probably find a way to deflect. Thank you both, this is not ideal, and I dont see this service improving in the future unfortunately

    Delay Repay for RDG to WDT Annual season ticket

    Neither calling nor their online system seem to work. This is insane. How can it be okay to be delayed by nearly twice the length of your journey and have zero way of getting compensation??

    Delay Repay for RDG to WDT Annual season ticket

    Can someone help me figure out how to do delay repay for individual journeys on my annual season ticket for Elizabeth line services? I've had two 40 minute delays today for what should be a 30 minute journey each way. I have a national rail season ticket, as paying contactless between Reading...

    Paddington - Reading - Why so many problems?

    Ok this just seems like a sick joke at this point. London-bound local services completely blocked now, caused by fire, signalling issues, and whichever other cursed issue is still yet to happen.

    Reading West Revamp

    "The person could never get to the shop in question?" Are we really going to pretend like Reading Buses aren't accessible, and that concessionary bus passes (with carers included) aren't a thing? For four years, my ex-husband (who is a ventilator-dependent man with muscular dystrophy) and I...

    Unexpected Service at Didcot Parkway 10th May 2022

    Hi All, I commute daily between Reading and Culham, which requires a connection at Didcot Parkway. If I take the 18:17 service from Culham to Didcot, my options towards Reading are usually the fast 18:28 service or the stopping one at 18:39. However today there was an additional fast service...

    May 2021 Timetable Change

    Thanks for the response, this is certainly good news! It is very promising to see that even with the bleak current situation, service improvements are still happening, even if some are less certain than others.

    May 2021 Timetable Change

    Hello everyone, I have a quick question regarding the state of the GWR Didcot-Oxford services calling at Culham station after the timetable change. According to RealTimeTrains and GWR website, the service at Culham compared to pre-covid times will actually improve, from 29 to 33 trains a day and...

    National Rail Step Free Access Map

    Alex, this is a fantastic resource and a million times better than anything National Rail has ever released. With regards to the non-step-free stations, have you considered putting an unmarked stub to show that there is a station? This is just so that people using the resource don't assume that...

    What is the largest/busiest NR station with no step-free access?

    Surely this has to be Moorgate. Even after the Crossrail works, the NR platforms will have no lift access

    What are TOCs doing post accessible RRB advice?

    Every station that GA has shown the Stadlers at has had level boarding, on the Wherry lines, Norwich, Cambridge, Lowestoft, etc. By their own estimate, 70% of the stations where Stadlers will call will have level boarding. Keeping in mind that level boarding is max +/- 50mm step size, platform...

    What are TOCs doing post accessible RRB advice?

    Maybe after more than 20 years after DDA, the transport industries could have sorted this out on their own. Despite all this, disabled passengers have to deal with being left on trains, failed ramp assistance, not being able to board buses, having to plan every journey (and contigencies) hours...

    What are TOCs doing post accessible RRB advice?

    Sorry my response is a bit delayed, but yes his chair is permitted on all rolling stocks that we've tried, even GWR HSTs and the Underground's Central line 1992 stock. Its a height issue with the taxis.

    What are TOCs doing post accessible RRB advice?

    Also, are we really going to pretend that "accessible taxis" are indeed acceptable for all wheelchair users? My husband is a power wheelchair user and is unable to safely fit almost all accessible taxis (not even the new electric ones in London). So either the buses must be accessible, or the...

    Do you know whether the lifts down to the Underground level are operational?
