Hi,

Can someone explain what I am doing wrong with the above site?
I wanted trains to Gatwick from Streatham Hill via Clapham Junction and no
matter what time of day I enter it says no trains are available.
I does however offer trains via West Norwood and changing again at East
Croydon if I don't enter via Clapham Junction.
If you know these routes you will know that changing at Clapham Junction

is
preferable as there is minimal lugging of cases.
Two separate enquiries of Streatham Hill to Clapham Junction and then

again
Clapham Junction to Gatwick come up OK?
Does not compute in my book.
Thanks for any help,


Try www.travelinescotland.com.

Enter Gatwick Airport as 'From Town/Village', Streatham Hill as 'To
Town/Village' and Clapham Junction as 'Optional Via', with (trains) in 'Stop
or Street' and 'Location' boxes and uncheck all options except 'Train' in
the lower boxes.

From extensive experience I have found this to be the most effective and
accurate site online. It isn't perfect, I have found faults, especially in
its qualification of input data, but once you get used to its few
peculiarities it is my journey planner of choice.
