Trains To Billericay

[Braders]

planning to head off soonish but had a quick check of the train line website and it's coming up with no information - wondering if due to the flooding its a no hoper or not?

 

[Starry]

I just looked and it worked for me, with a million different options going via East Croydon, Farringdon, Stratford or any number of places at your choice I think.

weird i try national rail enquiries and get this

We are sorry, we are not able to find any train that match you journey details. There are some possible reasons below. Please try again

You specified a 'via' station, but also asked for the cheapest fares. The cheapest tickets may not be available on the route you requested. Try again, without the via station.

There are no trains running when you want to go. Try again, travelling at a different time

and this on the train line site

We cannot find any services that meet your request.
Possible reasons and solutions are listed below. You can try and search for another journey by clicking on the back button:
The services you have asked for may not be available yet.

You can usually book on train services up to 3 months in advance. However some services may be made available at shorter notice for example, when engineering works are taking place.


There may not be any trains running when you want to go (fewer trains run off-peak, during the night and Bank Holidays).


If possible select different travel times or dates. Please note we do not provide information on overnight Sleeper services.


The town you are travelling from or to may have more than one station.


Try entering the town name rather than a specific station name. For example, instead of London King's Cross to Reading, try London to Reading.


The route you asked for may not be a valid route (for example, London to Birmingham via Glasgow).


If you have asked to travel through or avoid a particular station remove this and try again. Otherwise try breaking your journey into separate legs.


The journey requested is London Underground only.


The site offers One Day Travelcards and also travel to London Zone 1 stations. Try using London Zone 1 as your destination or select your journey and add a Travelcard on the Journey Confirmation page.

Oops, that is barely readable. If you can't get the website to work I'd try phoning rail enquiries or something. But so far as I can see the trains are OK and running there and back.

 

[Braders]

cool , but just rang rail enquiries and got the list , and got told "it may not be possible to start this trip from Brighton" !

the weather wasn't THAT bad yesterday surely?

 

[Starry]

Oh I have no idea then! lol Wonderful public transport, surely rail enquires should know which trains are and aren't running?

There was a landslip at South Croydon yesterday afternoon with all the rain so that may be what's causing the problems.

Take care at East Croydon Braders.
