    Hypothetical Delay Repay Question

    I was waiting for this service at Bishopbriggs this morning which, thanks to running with fewer coaches than booked, was exceptionally busy, to the point where the guard refused to let people board the train. We had to wait for the next one. If the next train arrived in Glasgow on time, but...

    Travelcard to/from Watford Junction

    If one has a Zones 1-9 + Watford Junction (Off-Peak) Day Travelcard, is it only valid on London Overground services between Harrow & Wealdstone and Watford Junction, or can it also be used on London Midland and Southern services?

    Early running trains

    Today, I boarded 2K98 (1654 Irvine to Glasgow Central) at Lochwinnoch station, and the train left nearly 5 minutes before the scheduled departure time. Has anyone else experienced trains running early like this? After checking it was not an earlier train running late, I sent an email to...

    2P34 1028 Dunblane - Edinburgh due 1132

    Can anyone tell me what class of rolling stock is booked to operate 2P34 (1028 Dunblane - Edinburgh due 1132)? The majority of services on this route run as 158s but there's normally at least one 170 in operation as well.

    Return tickets cheaper than singles

    I'd be interested to get some insight into this. I've noticed that for one journey, Cumbernauld [CUB] to Edinburgh [EDB], the cheapest available (anytime day) single fare is £13.80, yet the cheapest available (off-peak day) return fare is only £12.60. Can anyone suggest a reason for this...
