Found a train from Man to Portsmouth for 12.50 from virgin trains, 4 stops mind and 7 hours!

Virgin Trains don't run from Manchester to Portsmouth, do you mean you used the Virgin Trains website and one of the trains you will use is operated by Virgin?

If you read above, each leg of the journey has a train operator, Southern, London Underground, Transpennine Express, National Express East Coast etc.

I thought you had meant you had found a train operated by Virgin the whole way (which doesn't exist)

Booked it but phoned up before to queery the jounery and they said the advance tickets are fully booked. Booked it online anyway, says it's been processed. So guess I will have to wait and see... cheers for the help
