    Northern line train evacuation at Clapham Common

    The report includes an extract from the LU Rule Book which makes it clear that he did not have to ask permission in an emergency, however he was in the mistaken belief that he did have to ask permission.

    What is first class?

    What you consider to be a “proper First class” is a relatively new innovation post-privatisation, with prior to that First class on InterCity services typically including tea and coffee and maybe a packet of biscuits/snacks or the odd exception like some wine on a Friday evening train. Food...

    2024 Local, Mayoral and PCC Elections

    I would imagine if the Conservatives do better than the polling suggests there will be questions in the Conservative Party as to how they ended up with such a rubbish candidate.

    Central line - shortage of serviceable trains

    They don’t usually publish TTNs [Timetable Notices] on that page (some years they publish the Met line leaf fall season). If nobody else has done so you could ask for it under FoI though. The poster above has given the details of what to ask for.

    HS2 TBM Progress

    Does anyone know what the issue with the siding at West Ruislip being taken out of commission is? It’s been closed at least a week now with HS2 saying some kind of “safety audit” is needed. A letter from the council (who have increased the permitted hours of road deliveries) to residents implies...

    Refunds to Oyster Web Account no longer available.

    ls the content in the OP an official quote from TfL or your own supposition of the current position? On the applicable page in my account it used to show any previous refunds l had collected and it also had a link for me to click for a previous failed refund (it was about 10 years old and dated...

    Customs Presence at UK Airports

    When arriving earlier this year (cannot remember where from) into Terminal 5 there were Border force officers with a dog at the airport end of the jetbridge asking customers to hold their bags low to their left at the height of the dog. I didn’t really understand what they were asking until...

    Introducing RailUK Tickets - support the forum when booking your rail tickets!

    I get that but it is possible with Lner as they allow you to just tick a button and they arrange assistance bookings behind the scenes. I’ve only just got the person back to using Trainsplit after the nightmare of booking assistance last time, and now this has just happened.

    Introducing RailUK Tickets - support the forum when booking your rail tickets!

    There are some Premier Inns that don’t have a restaraunt or pub adjacent but which serve breakfast. There’s a Beefeater and conjoined Premier Inn near my house but the Beefeater closed down a few months ago allegedly to convert into extra Premier Inn rooms. Despite local pubs being busy and a...
