(it´s always nice when your train stays online don´t you think. sorry)I´m having my annual tussle with thetrainline.com and their very individual notion of customer service. Anyone happen to know any alternative sites where I can book some cheapie rail tickets ta?

www.totaljourney.com (or co.uk, can't remember which) Don't know if it's any good though. It's a jv between Railtrack and FirstGroup

Thanks for that Mister Ious, I´ll have a peek. Having been away from the UK a few years now though all these privatised ventures are quite foreign to me. So who are First Group - a rival to Virgin or something - and are they kosher?

not sure about booking but I always use http://www.rail.co.uk/ukrail/planner/planner.htm for timetablesa and then phone the number. The tickets always come next day, from Cardiff, even if I book at 7 p.m. very strange

Seymour you might be better off in that case by getting someone in the UK to do it over the phone....
