This makes you realise why HS2 is so ridiculously expensive.

Correct, your question...

Sorry for the delay. Which Football League club has the closest ground to the river Mersey? (as of today , so Everton's new ground doesn't count)

Presenters of Magpie?

Is anyone able to tell me what this was? http://www.charlwoodhouse.co.uk/rail/livetrain/56526/13/03/24 TIA

If a speeding offence is challenged by a driver who knows himself to be innocent, the costs and potential penalties if unsuccessful are such that it is safer to accept an awareness course or fixed penalty if offered. I always ensure I have a valid ticket, but reading these forums makes me...

Having been passing the part finished piles at the A5 bridge for over a year now without any apparent progress, I was surprised to see they had been completed and other work in progress yesterday.

There are no barriers at either Nuneaton or Atherstone. An anytime Day return is £5 without a railcard. The journey time is about 6 minutes, so unlikely that a ticket would be inspected on the train in that time. We need more information from the OP about the contents of the letter from LNW?

I had taken this into account. From table 3, the most a worst case HGV pays in total ( Euro V , non road friendly suspension and two axles ) is only £1353 Compare this with a Citroen Spacetourer From...

Would it not be possible to introduce a penalty fare for those occupying seats for which they don't have a reservation. The threat of enforcement may be sufficient to deter people even if the practicalities may make it difficult to implement in practice.

Grand Central have cancelled the 14:14 from Sunderland today. They have tweeted ( or is it now Xed) the following. The next GC train is 4 hours later at 1814 Any alternative ticket bought on the day is likely to be much more expansive than the refunded amount. Do GC not have an obligation...

In my experience, Special Delivery has the benefit that you often get your money back because they fail to deliver it on time ( But usually on the right day )
