    First Class Upgrade Cost - Cheshire Day Ranger

    Looking at doing a Cheshire Day Ranger soon and want to upgrade to first class between Crewe and Liverpool. I always thought it was the difference between the SDS (standard day single) and the FDS (first day single) if you have a ranger ticket. So £1.70 in this case. Asked Avanti to confirm...

    Complimentary food from Avanti in First Class? (Weekends)

    Hello all, I might get an Avanti upgrade tomorrow to first class. Do you get complimentary food from Coach C? I know you get limited selection from the first class area, but what about the shop? thanks!

The bus is a replacement to Stockport, and NRE estimates 1 hour 37 minutes, departing at xx.08 past the hour. I just tweeted Northern who told...

    First Class - declassified? (on West Midlands Trains)

    Just a quick question today. On Saturday I'm due to be travelling with London Northwestern Railway on the Crewe - Liverpool route. The official timetable from the website (here) does not have the "1" (for first class) above the services. They replied to someone's tweet asking about this a few...

    Manchester CTLZ

    Hi, just wanted to check what railway stations the Manchester CTLZ ticket is valid to. I bought a Stockport to Manchester CTLZ, would it allow me to get off at, say, Oxford Road, Deansgate or Victoria, then use the tram? I've got the more expensive "any permitted route" and not "avanti only"...

    Route via Stalybridge

    Note that the origin of the journey won't be the actual station I'll use, but it's on the same line. So, if I wanted to go from Handforth (not the actual station I'm getting on at) to Manchester Piccadilly, but I wanted to go on Stockport - Stalybridge parliamentary train, would that be...
