I had a recent trip from Yorkshire to Brighton. Travelling on LNER was relatively straightforward, even on the return on a strike day. However, all 4 Thameslink barriers rejected both my and my wife's tickets, saying "seek assistance". As they were accepted by LNER barriers at both ends, I...

I've got a Saturday in London coming up. I'll be catching a TfL bus into Heathrow T5, then a tube from Heathrow T5 to central London. I'll then be making at least 3 more journeys in Zones 1 and 2, probably more. I have no relevant railcards or other discounts. I'm planning on using...

I'm on a journey I booked a while ago and have just noticed that LNER gave me a connection time of 22 minutes between arriving at Kings Cross and leaving St Pancras on an Advance ticket. Whilst that should be doable if we're on time, it feels a lot shorter than when I've done it in the past...

I'm becoming a bigger fan of the site's ticket system and have recently bought quite a few tickets through it, largely for following a band around. Today I bought split tickets and was wondering if it was possible to warn before paying if the split is going to give different reservations - my...

Got a an email from LNER last night. Helpfully letting me know that my LNER train was cancelled and letting me book a seat on another service. Although it doesn't mention that if you choose a replacement using another operator it won't book on their service until after confirming the booking...

The outline of this has been mentioned in the thread on BSIP (Bus Service Improvement Plan), but now it's coming to fruition (tomorrow). All the local operators in Keighley already offer £2 fares, but from tomorrow most or all the local routes will have a reasonably long section where the fare...

First Leeds drivers are going on continuous strike from 18 June 2023. https://www.unitetheunion.org/news-events/news/2023/june/leeds-braced-for-bus-chaos-as-first-west-yorkshire-drivers-stage-continuous-strike/

LNER have a potentially useful system where I get pushed information about my journey. But it seems determined to mislead. They still assume every journey is on an LNER Azuma. I'm assuming they're going to confuse those unused to their journey - those they should be most useful for. My train...

When I was a child I used to visit my grandparents in Nottinghamshire. They lived near Maun Motors who rented out vans. I believe they were connected with Maun Coaches/Buses of Mansfield and occasionally I'd see their buses. I've seen a couple of their timetables in old timetable books which...

Geetings again. I'm wanting to cancel a booking with LNER under the Book with confidence scheme which applies to bookings until the end of November.. I can't find where it's hidden. All the refund options require me to claim something that isn't true. If I choose "Changed my mind" I'm told...

Does anyone know if the closure of this site is long term? Got some work next year near the site and was wondering if the 59 bus route is likely to return. If not, it'll be a drive, or a bit of a trek from the station.

Hi, Looking for advice with this one. Not a simple return, so not as easy for the split ticketing sites. Tomorrow evening (sometime after 1700) my wife and I will travel from Ely to Reading Central (assuming via central London and Paddington). On Saturday morning we'll return to London -...

Both Arriva's website and bustimes show this service going from a 10-15 service for most of the day to having an hour gap from 0730 and a 5 hour gap 1500-2000 from Leicester from tomorrow. This seems unlikely. I've asked Arriva about it but received no reply. Anyone any idea what's going on?

I've a trip with work in a couple of weeks and was looking up how easy it would be to get there by public transport. It initially looked to be fairly easy (except that the bus route after getting a train to Ely - Stagecoach's 12 is to be withdrawn before I need it). However, it seems to be in...

I've noticed recently that LNER emails have what at first appears to be useful advice about whether you've a booked seat, but on closer inspection is misleading. Any train that has no booked seat gives advice on finding a seat based on an LNER train. Whilst I know my Northern service has no...

There was chat in another thread about local journeys with National Express. Some that used to be possible are now quite difficult and seem to be available intermittently. As per my image, there were no services on the day I searched. I've just tried looking for tomorrow from Leeds to...

I've bought Advance tickets from Keighley to Manchester Airport and Return through LNER. I was surprised to find it's not possible to change these because they're printable tickets - I've been able to change printable tickets on other operators. Looks like I'll need to remember to select TOD...

I'm sure changes to tickets should be simpler than LNER make them. I'm traveling this afternoon and trying to change my ticket to an earlier time. I've got my tickets as a PDF which should be easy to cancel. However the times of my original train have changed slightly. So when I click...

At all three entrances to Keighley station platforms there's now a line on the floor with the repeated slogan "cross the line, risk a fine". I'm guessing this isn't quite the case, but thought I'd ask. I occasionally pop onto the platforms to meet people, sometimes when the ticket office is...

I'm looking to travel with Cross Country tomorrow. I'd like to change my reservations to a later service. My tickets are not tied to a train. Their Twitter account tells me I'd have to go back to the company I bought them from (Raileasy) - they tend to answer me but not very quickly and I'm...
