TrainPal's Travel Expert Experience
"Southern services can become crowded during the 07:00 to 09:00 and 16:00 to 19:00 commuter peaks, so travelling outside these periods can make longer journeys more comfortable. For Gatwick Airport, consider the front or rear sections of Class 377 and 387 trains for easier access to luggage space."
"If you have a Standard ticket, check the platform and onboard displays for First Class declassification before boarding, as these areas may occasionally be opened to Standard passengers. On longer journeys towards Brighton, Portsmouth or Southampton, checking the train formation before boarding can also help you position yourself near the luggage space you need."

TrainPal's Travel Expert Experience
"Most of Woking station's amenities are on the northern side. Head through to Victoria Place away from the main entrance for the best coffee options. Black Sheep Coffee and the Cosy Coffee House are both worth seeking out. For food near the station, the northern side has an excellent range of independent restaurants – Greek, Lebanese and Korean options are all within easy reach. If you have a little longer, head through the compact town centre to the Basingstoke Canal for a scenic walk along the Saturn Trail towpath – one of Surrey's most peaceful green escapes and just a 10-15 minute walk from the station."
