Hi all,

Are day ranger tickets (specifically GWR▸ (Great Western Railway)) still able to purchase at ticket offices?

Thanks

Thanks for the information, it will be interesting to hear of any plans  Grin

Thank you for the explanation  Smiley Yes I agree with you on Broadgauge's piece of false propaganda.

Sounds like a great idea to me.  Perhaps it will allow GWR▸ (Great Western Railway) to operate that service to Fantasy Island at long last so we can come visit you.

All i wanted was further information, there is no need to be rude.

Then again this is just a rumour isn’t it.

Indeed.  Perhaps GWR▸ (Great Western Railway) 158 can tell us from where he heard the rumour?

I certainly can, I heard it from a friend. I highly doubted this would be true anyway, I just wanted further information to see whether anyone has heard anything similar.

No it didn't thankfully

Hi all,

I heard a rumour recently that suggested GWR▸ (Great Western Railway) are planning to withdraw IET▸ (Intercity Express Train) sets permanently due to rusting/corroding bolts. Does anybody have more information on this? Or is it untrue
9  All across the Great Western territory / Fare's Fair / London Day Travelcards on: January 19, 2024, 19:50:55
Hi all,

I am planning to travel between Basingstoke and London Waterloo several times in one day, would I be able to use a London day travelcard for this?

Does a travelcard offer unlimited travel between the points shown on the ticket?

Thanks in advance,

Hi all,

Found an interesting article stating that GWR▸ (Great Western Railway) are planning to run direct IET▸ (Intercity Express Train) services from Bristol Temple Meads to Oxford via Didcot Parkway. I have attached the article below. What does everyone think about these plans? I think it would be very beneficial for passengers travelling down from Bristol and stations in between and it would be an effective way to get more people using the rail network.

Thanks all,

Hi all,

Looks interesting, any ideas what the incident may be? (Screenshot attached)

Thanks in advance

Hi all

Have any dates been given as to when the TVM▸ (Ticket Vending Machine) software will be updated to allow rover and ranger tickets to be bought on TVMs?

Thanks in advance
14  All across the Great Western territory / Fare's Fair / Re: Ticket office staff displacement on: August 12, 2023, 11:02:06
OK, thank you. Are there any current plans to update ticket machines across the network to sell all ticket types?
15  All across the Great Western territory / Fare's Fair / Ticket office staff displacement on: August 12, 2023, 10:53:32
Hi all,

Will ticket office staff on the station be able to sell all ticket types using handheld equipment? Or is it just going to be the machines selling tickets?

Thanks in advance
