TVMs (Ticket Vending Machine) do not sell the full range of tickets, and if you can purchase on line, often 7 days notice is required plus a postage fee.
33  All across the Great Western territory / Across the West / Re: Problems with IET trains from April 2021 on: June 19, 2023, 10:07:50
There appear to be some IET (Intercity Express Train) problems today with journey check showing a number of short forms (several diagrams), plus a failure at Reading.

Whilst I don't know the details of your journey, arrival time at St Ives are at intervals of 29 minute then 31 minute intervals. It is probable that your delay covered one of the 29 minute intervals

37  Journey by Journey / Heart of Wessex / New Timetable from 21 May 2023 on: May 18, 2023, 13:33:40
The timetable is being revised to give a more even interval between services, This means that the "day trip" train, currently 0842 from Bristol Temple Meads is being brought forward 0803 and no longer runs from Worcester. I am pleased to note that off peak da returns are valid on this service.

This ticket has been dumbed down over the years with many of the former bus services no longer available

41  All across the Great Western territory / The Wider Picture in the United Kingdom / Re: TfL plan to scrap Travelcards on: April 20, 2023, 16:18:02
It will also mean that TfL» (Transport for London - about) get 100% of the contactless/Oyster (Smartcard system used by passengers on Transport for London services) PAYG (Pay as you go), rather than splitting it with the TOCs (Train Operating Company), which will achieve the shoring up their income aim
Surely they will still have to reimburse TOCs for those parts of the journey not on TfL services

In respect of point 2, although the Bradford junction reversal was used during the Box tunnel works, is was actually provided during the Westbury area re-signalling in the 1980s
