A (garishly coloured) reference: http://www.lococarriage.org.uk/66minute.htm http://www.lococarriage.org.uk/66minute.htm I've actually had quite good experiences claiming ticket credits or total refunds for some long-distance UK train journeys. I can't find the exact terms, and they potentially vary per-operator, but it's around 50% refund for up to 30 minutes delay, and a full ticket cost refund if it's >60 minutes. A couple of times, I've had a trip delayed by 50-59 minutes. I suspect this isn't a coincidence.
