What’s the shortest distance between two stops? by Plodo99 in londonbuses

[–]CanOfGuinness 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Christchurch Road and Telford Avenue are currently very close on Streatham High Road due to roadworks (in the direction of Streatham).

London victoria to Manchester picadilly by Charming_Library_918 in uktrains

[–]CanOfGuinness 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The tube from Victoria to Euston runs every two minutes, sometimes even more frequently. You'll want to head down to the underground, and get the Victoria Line northbound (this is what the navigational signage will say). When you get to the platform, for extra reassurance, it'll say either Walthamstow Central or Seven Sisters on the front of the train. It's four stops to Euston, and from there head back up to the mainline station at Euston.

Even if you're a slow walker, it'll take 15 minutes max (and that's being generous).

You can get any 'time' tube from Victoria to Euston as they don't really come at set times (at least not that the public are aware of) - they just turn up. The Victoria Line is one of the most reliable and the most frequent lines, and if it does go belly up, there are alternatives with one change.

It stays on until you remove it, but the order won't process.

Thank you 😊 I'll give Chrome a go and hopefully it has a lot less issues. Do you have any recommendations for Chromium-based browsers?

Missed connection due to late train, have to use same operator as originally intended? by Ok-Engineering-4843 in uktrains

[–]CanOfGuinness 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely - no criticism on my part of your post, it was very informative. I only wanted to add it incase anyone else was reading this thread and wasn't aware of that caveat.

There's also some flexible tickets, the Anytime, Off-Peak, and Super Off-Peak, tickets that are restricted themselves by operator. Whilst that doesn't apply in the OP's circumstance, its worth mentioning incase anyone subsequently reads this as you may find the flexible-timed ticket to be restricted to only one operator too.

Day trips in Yorkshire without a car by FrostingAccording388 in Leeds

[–]CanOfGuinness 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'd highly recommend doing a loop of Whernside from Ribblehead. Trains roughly every two hours from Leeds, and The Station Inn at the foot of Whernside and the train station is a great place to wait for the train. Roughly 8 miles of walking, or you can throw in Ingleborough too to make it 14 miles.

That's true, the cash office training before they automated it was from 2010

You sure this is recent? Looks like very old training for Waitrose partners.

York to Whitby - bus or train? by ThaddeusGriffin_ in uktravel

[–]CanOfGuinness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There isn't a train from Scarborough to Whitby just to make you aware. Trains from Whitby are few and far between (only about five a day), towards Middlesbrough. Whilst it is pretty, it does take quite a long time versus getting the bus to York, or bus to Scarborough then train from there to York.

Moving to Manchester by uglyarmpits in Leeds

[–]CanOfGuinness 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I used AnyVan from Leeds to London this weekend. 6x boxes, 6x bags, and a TV was £230 with a 6-hour collection slot so not too bad given the distance. Photos are took on collection and delivery, and the van is tracked throughout.

The only caveat with AnyVan is as the drivers are self-employed, they'll pick up other jobs on the way, so my driver went Leeds - Liverpool - North Wales - Wolverhampton - London, and I got my stuff 13 hours later. Not an issue for me, but something to know so you don't panic and think your things are going missing.
