I claimed delay repay for >30 (Both what the website is showing I claimed for and what happend), but have been paid for >60. Is there any legal obligation to notify the TOC?

LRT English - Single European Railway System in the Plans by 2023 This sounds like a fantastic idea, but is it realistic? Some countries don't really have an integrated national system, and the growth of open access operators and yield managed ticketing means things are going the opposite...

I have a slightly strange question... I've just made a visit to Krakow (my most poorly planned short break; for dental work, because life is now sufficiently crazy that this still makes sense even at short notice!). I arrived by plane and stayed in Wieliczka, so did many trips on the SKA1...

Because of a strange confluence of historical reasons (and because public transport in the UK is alwaysa bit half baked and on the cheap) the Stagecoach 8A route in Cambridge has been amended so that it goes round a complete circle in a housing estate twice at one end of the route, in the same...

Thoughts coming to me after reading https://www.railforums.co.uk/threads/stansted-airport-station-queues-and-railcard-app-not-working.250089/page-3 Greater Anglia are certainly failing the attitude test at Stansted Airport just at the moment - exits blocked off, signs don't match the exits in...

Hello I'm trying to claim delay repay from Greater Anglia, which seems to be more difficult than before. I've logged out, which appears to be the only way you can claim for a non season ticket. I'm now at this screen: Can anyone tell me what the ticket reference is? The only clues are that...

Hello On strike days it's usually possibly to travel from Cambridge to Ipswich, albeit just not by a permitted route. Are there any options for arguing the second bit of a Cambridge - Ipswich open return can be used? Or do I need to suck it up and pay £:(:(?

Hello I'm aware that this question is all kinds of noob so please be patient! I want to travel from Cambridge to Windermere 22/10 return 26/10. It's not currently possible to book this, I assume because this "is an Avanti journey" and the Avanti booking window is... whatever. However I'm...

A little bit not quite the usual, but an interesting and scenic possible day trip for anyone visiting Estonia (which you should, because it's a great country even if the railway rolling stock is a bit homogenous and plastic!) Naissaar is a pretty island about an hour from Tallinn in Estonia...

Last week I put in two delay repay requests, and got the usual confirmation e-mails that confirmed the time and origin / destination of the journeys (without inputting which I don't think you'd have been able to submit a claim?). I've now had two emails asking me to provide "missing...

Is there any valid reason why the journey planners should offer tickets from Ipswich to Cambridge North via Ely, but not Bury St Edmunds to Cambridge North via Ely? For example: 1600 Ipswich to Ely (passing through Bury St Edmunds at 1629) followed by 1718 Ely to Cambridge North arr 1732 is...

Hello I am going to be making random return trips from Bury St Edmunds to either Ipswich or Cambridge (or occasionally both, but probably not 8 times within a month, and sometimes with extra singles to one or the other). - Can I load two flexible season tickets onto a smartcard? Or should I...

In this thread https://www.railforums.co.uk/threads/greater-anglia-new-passenger-information-screens.180493/page-8#post-4903438, back in 2019, we started talking about GA's then new passenger information screens (spoiler: not very good / some teething problems). Like perhaps many people I...

Hello Could anyone help me understand ticket validity between Ipswich and the Cambridge stations via Newmarket / Ely? NRE doesn't appear to like travel on the route Ipswich - Ely - Cambridge; the fare is usually £5 more than via Newmarket. NRE does seem to fully accept that travel on the...

This probably isn't a warning that's needed for most people, but as I doubt I'm the only one... I arrived at a station a bit late so tried to buy an e-ticket using the app to avoid the queue at the ticket machine, but after trying three times and the payment "not working" I gave up, bought one...

Came across these and thought they should be scanned in case they were of interest to anyone! Includes details of the (then) proposed Eurostar services due to start in 1994. Interestingly it also included details of the additional services that would start in 1995. These were of course the...

Perhaps the Greater Anglia intended improvement that got the least attention paid to it, but the one that would have benefited me most! Under the (now former) Anglia Franchise TSR3 requirements for Cambridge to Ipswich, Cambridge was due to get an earlier train to Ipswich. Do we know why this...

Just seen this article: https://www.examinerlive.co.uk/news/west-yorkshire-news/dreadful-yorkshire-train-service-uks-17884447 How correct is this? I feel like the Harwich - Cambridge boat train didn't run at all for well over a month?

A lot of what's going on with bus and coach routes in the UK is doom and gloom, but there must be some shining example of success (I have one locally...) What examples of greatly growing bus routes are there? I'm looking for cases where the growth has occurred over a number of years and...

Hello Is a Super Off Peak Day Travelcard valid on the 0531 Cambridge to Stratford? Thanks!
