    Query - Crossing London with tickets marked '+'

    Interested if anyone has the data to show that it is. I guess in my case im interested in if its valid and if the barrier would open with the ticket from outside the station as normally the transfer would be from tube to national rail without barrier at Farringdon (if coming from Euston Sq) :)

    it told me the price would become £12 and asked me a question "do you still want to use the railcard?" who says yes and more importantly why is yes even an option! There is nothing stopping me buying the off peak online and then collecting it from the machine with the booking reference...
