Kiveton Park in South Yorks. Situation made worse by this: The sole TVM is on the westbound platform (towards Sheffield). Understandable; that will be the more used side. The very small car park is on that side. But most foot passengers and almost all those arriving by bus will arrive at...

Yes, but, I believe this scenario is as was the case when we were still in the EU (but not Schengen); there was no actual limit on tobacco for personal use. There were nominal limits above which questions may have been asked, is all.

Without ever trying it - I believe (or suspect) that you could legitimately - travel from the rest of the EU to Eire. (Free movement of people, goods and services, within the EU, right?) - travel over the (absence of any) border to Northerin Ireland and then - travel over the (absence of any)...

Just a suggestion to anyone whose voting choice is determined to any significant extent by this promise, and who lives in "Northern" land. Your Railway is already nationalised. And since that happened it has a) improved significantly b) deteriorated noticeably (ask those who wish to use...

Your Railcard is not valid during the morning peak period when travelling between two stations in the Network Railcard area of validity. The two stations mentioned here are: Chesterfield London St Pancras Are these two stations in the Network Railcard (formerly Network South East) area...

As I understand it, the Traffic Commissioner can and will act if there are frequent/recurrent instances of late- or non-running etc. They don't act on individual/rare/isolated matters. They can and do withdraw the company's licence to operate - a measure that, it might be argued, may be...

Another way of putting that is: Goodbye those overpriced "any permitted" (etc) fares which cost a premium to not restrict yourself to a given TOC (and therby place yourself at risk of making an easy mistake and being penalised for it).

I think this fails to recognise the main issues that (from a user's perspective) the present structure presents. I'd suggest: - we don't care who owns or runs the train, as long as it runs, is of sufficient capacity and frequency and so on, but - we DO care about the disparate array of...

It's a long time ago, but I had the same type of ticket issued on bus ticket stock and had exactly the same "let you off this time" attitude from an XC conductor on a Doncaster > Sheffield trip.

I have most definitely been in the company of a person who is not hugely used to train travel and actually would genuinely NOT know that the scheduled departure time is a specifically defining number. I have similarly seen many instances of, again, infrequent users, who (still) do not recognise...

I'd judge the main issue with most of them is the criminally negligent interior layout, and not fundamentally the trains themselves. Sadly many "refurbishments" don't seek to change this and they remain dismal. It's not helped by the modular way in which they were constructed and the nature of...

I have driven a Tesla 3 for a week (rental in the USA), and an Ioniq 5 for a day (loaner). Perhaps it's a matter of familiarity or use; I find doing what I describe easier.

There is a circumstance when "creep" is useful, and that when manoeuvering very gingerly in a tight space (such as my garage, replete with all sorts of other stuff). With a manual, you can creep by slipping the clutch gently on idle. EVs have no clutch. In this and similar circumstances, I'd...

What I'd do in such circumstances, is to leave the booked itinerary in place. On arrival at BHam, I'd attempt to catch the earlier train and if I did get to it in time, I'd ask its guard BEFORE I got on - not afterwards. If I were too late to find the guard before boarding, I'd abandon the...

As above; that is incorrect. The brake lights are not directly linked to use of the pedal; they are determined by the car itself which knows when it's decelerating at a sufficient rate (however you make that happen).

I'd discredit the entire thing, all in one go - just as I would discredit an entire newspaper if I saw something published that was blatantly wrong (like the anti-EV FUD that some publish) - if it appeared to as biased as your summary above. It takes no account of the fact airports are not...

I'd say a tiny touch easier than an automatic; all other things equal (i.e. with the same driver aids and so on). Subtle; not a huge difference. Because: an electric transmission is always engaged and always in the right gear (for there is typically only the one). There is no use of a clutch...

I have taken a still from the video above which shows the correct location of the spring clip and the little black plastic thing. The presenter has the removed bulb holder assembly in his hand. You should be able to see that the spring clip you have should be on the back of the bulb holder...

Watch:

I have just taken mine apart as if to replace the bulb. 1. The black plastic piece in the pic, and the spring clip should not need to be removed. I'm not even sure how you did that. 2: Yes, you appear to be missing the central part of the reflector. The process should be/have been - if it's...
