    Uber ticketing

    That must be a new bug as I bought tickets with a Network Railcard on 25 March but I also can't do now. I've sent a message to them to tell them about the bug.

    Bradford Interchange Bus Station closed until further notice

    She was re-elected in my local ward last year so she ain't going nowhere until 2027. But if I get a Labour canvasser knock on my door, I'll be very happy to tell them what I think about their lack of open-ness over the interchange.

    Shack Attack 2024

    In between work and life, I managed to tick off 5 stations this month. I was down in Canterbury so did Selling and Kearnsey. Today I did Goldthorpe, Thurnscoe and Bolton-upon-Dearne, so have now done all the statiions between Leeds and Sheffield via both Barnsley and Moorthorpe. 481 done.

    Princess of Wales has cancer

    To have two members of your family receiving cancer treatment at the same time is pretty awful.

    Uber ticketing

    ChatGPT was handy for working out which tickets the money related to. From my spreadsheet of tickets paid with Uber, I asked it "I have the following list of numbers: 10.76 4.17 4.17 3.12 0.55 0.93 4.38 1.04 0.59. What combination totals 14.79?" and came back with the right answer. 1711284959...

    Shack Attack 2024

    Wanted to tick off some South Yorkshire stations today. Went to Dronfield first as that was the same price as a return to Sheffield. Ticked off Chapeltown, Elsecar, Wombwell and Silkstone Common on the way home. So I've now done all the Penistone line stations and all the Leeds-Chesterfield...

    Bradford Interchange Bus Station closed until further notice

    A couple of quick photos from when I came through at the weekend. The shutters were down at the top of the stairs up to the rail concourse. And all very eerie on the lower concourse.

    Has anyone ever moved from the House of Lords to the Commons?

    John Sinclair, 3rd Viscount Thurso, first joined Parliament in the House of Lords as a hereditary peer in 1995 and served until 1999, when he was among the majority of hereditary peers who were removed from Parliament following the House of Lords Act 1999. Thurso was elected Member of...

    Bradford Forster Square 4th Platform Funding Announced: what improvements would you like to see made?

    Extend one of the shorter platforms with a set of points in the middle so trains can use platform xA and xB without there being any conflicts? Like platform 3 at Doncaster.

    Shack Attack 2024

    11 new stations ticked off in January - not bad for a month for where one is waiting on cold/windy/wet platforms! On the way back from seeing family in Worksop, I did Kiveton Park and Kiveton Bridge. So I now only have Woodhouse and the outlier of Saxilby left to do before I've ticked off the...

    Possible incorrect Delay Repay assessment

    Thank you for that. I was thinking that my first delay was LNER telling me not to travel.

    Possible incorrect Delay Repay assessment

    I travelled from Saunderton to Shipley on a Sunday with a Super Off-Peak single. I bought the ticket from LNER app that morning and was planning on going via Marylebone, Kings Cross and Leeds. But just before I travelled, I checked online and LNER had issued a do not travel warning due to OHLE...

    LNER fare not bookable on...LNER

    That will explain why I recently saved £15 on a Shipley-London advance. TrainSplit found the xx38 to Leeds, whereas LNER’s app would only show me the xx45. They both connected into the same LNER train at Leeds.
