gina2007 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Hello! Im having a stupid moment... Im booking some traintickets and ive got myself in a right confused state. The booking says: Depart 03.45 SHF Arrive 07.06 BPN. Are the times in 24hr clock? So it departs at quarter to four AM and arrives at 7.06AM ? Or, not? It gives no indication as to if this is 12hr clock (has no am/pm times) but im just not 100% convinced the train would leave at that time. It stops in Manchester so that makes me think 'well yeah it would' but im questioning myself big time.... it'll be brilliant sending someone to the station at 3.45PM on the date,as they arent for me and they are 12hrs late.... please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twiglet Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 The national rail timetable shows a train from SHF to BPN at 03.45am so it is the morning train Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grandad.Malky Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Is this the Cleethorpes the M/airport train? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hels1977 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 03:45 from Sheffield arrives Piccadilly at 04:40, change for the 05:46 service to Blackpool north (probably platform 14). So you have a 1h + at Piccadilly basically. Yes, 24 hour clock. It's the airport train so they run at night to some extent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SILLY Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Yes it's the morning train otherwise it would be 15.45 arriving at 19.06. They use the 24 hour clock to stop confusion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
