What is the best site? I normally use nationalrail.co.uk and thetrainline.co.uk. Trouble is it won't tell me where the train stops and what time. How can I work this out, i've never known how. For instance I want to get a train to carlisle, i just put in London to Carlisle. And it tells me when it leaves and when it arrives. But I want to know where it stops on the way because I think it might stop somewhere nearer to me. Closest is Biggleswade, but that would mean going down to london first. I think it might be milton keynes or something, but the point is how can I actually find out from the website?

it doesn't list stations between london and carlisle as far as i can see. MK was right, but only because I guessed rght.

I want to go to carlisle from biggleswade. But that will send me down to london first So I wanted to find out where te train from london to carlisle stopped at that was closeish to me. I suspected it was MK, but for instance Bedford or Luton and others are preferrable to get on at even though they are a bit further than biggleswade, it is preferrable to going down to london and back.

yeah usually is cos any train you get on that started there is bound to be doing loads of ****** stations

when you go from euston to the north you can avoid all those

a few extra stops is preferable to going to london with luggage and tubing/walkng/taxiing it from kings cross to euston.

It is a 10 minute walk, wouldn't use a tube, it would be a pain with loads of luggage And i'd have to pay about 15quid to get from biggy to london. MK is much preferable if i can get a lift there. And the first train of the day doesn't seem to stop at other stations anyway.
