Most stations in the NSE area dont have SOR. It goes back to the days when Network South East was started. They got rid of the barriers so peoples tickets were not checked on leaving the station. If you have SOR tickets then obviously they can be used again and again.
They found very few...
When Great Western and Thames were separate then ANY CDR was banned on FGW services between 1600 and 1900. Its only since the unified franchise that there have been these issues.
If you hold an Advance ticket the peak /off peak time is irrelevant. You travel at the times on you ticket. If you want to be sure carry a copy of you itinery to show to any RPI.
Well looking at the fares manual an Anytime return from Lancaster to Winchester via banbury is £175.00. An anytime return any permitted is £353.00. When changing route you pay half the difference which would have been £89.00.
Again looking at the manual a Off peak single from London to...
If what you say is true then you have actually saved yourself a couple of quid. The add on for zone 1 is £6.00 for a return. So if you only bought a single zone 1 cash fare it is £4.00.
The reason your ticket worked the barriers on the way out is that old street is also classed as a London...
You must be going back a bit. In the T & C of YP railcard for many years it says if you dont show a valid railcard then you will be liable for the standard single ticket for the journey being made. (As a minimum)
I mean charging the difference between what you paid and what you would of...
Buy yourself and child a discounted off peak return from Potters bar to Reading. Then buy yourself a undiscounted off peak return from Reading to Potters Bar. Then when you get back to Reading you can use the discouted tickets to bring the child home the next day. (Off peak return = Saver...
So you are waiting for the 1737 to didcot and the 1743 pulls in first. Using my crystal ball I assume you are at Oxford. Well two likely options
1. Signallers error. The xc was running early and it should have waited outside for the 1737. By letting it go early it does not hold up the 1737...
like Flamingo said there are two many holes in the story. Bit like Chinese whispers and something has got lost in the telling.
FGW dont have CSA (whatever they are) My best guess is that there was a problem with the ticket. What we dont know. FGW do issue complimentary tickets but they...
I have to disagree. The route clearly states no tUnderground. The valid route for this would be to go to Waterloo East and then got to Waterloo and get a train to Reading. Hence you are not travelling on the underground.
Even if you use your Oyster card you are still going via the...
Well if you have a child travelling with you it will be even cheaper with a family railcard. Adult 34% off and child 60% off child rate
Adult 21.45
child 6.50
Total 27.95
I know you have to pay for the railcard but after a few trips it pays for itself. And it does not matter if the...
you can buy another railcard the day before your birthday in November which will then be valid fo a full year until the day before your 27th Birthday.
Yes you can split ticket with you Network Railcard but the rule that your train must stop where the tickets split will still apply.
