UK & Ireland Dashboard: London Airport Transfers, Rail, Eurostar & Destination Guides
Welcome to the UK & Ireland forum, whether you're planning a visit, live here, are passing through Heathrow or are simply curious.
Thanks to the efforts of various posters over the years, we have a number of FAQs on the most popular topics, now presented in dashboard form. Scroll down for a list of topics, and keep scrolling for direct links to the larger FAQs. Keep scrolling further if this widgetry doesn't work for you, and you want the links the old-fashioned way.
There's also a feedback thread: anything you have to say about the dashboard, FAQs themselves, or any contributions you want to make, just let us know! Do also feel free to PM the forum moderator (stut) with any questions or suggestions, if you don't want to post on a thread for any reason.
And while we're on about contributions... We have a wish list of FAQs - so keen are we, that I've even pre-emptively created some widgets for them. All offers of work on these topics will be very gratefully received - feel free to PM the forum moderator or post on the feedback thread.

We're not just about planes here! The UK and Ireland have extensive rail networks: sometimes fast, sometimes slow, often scenic and often a little confusing. It can be worth the effort, though, and this FAQ should help you take advantage of it.
