Hi, We all know that planners don’t state LT as departure or destination stations, but the actual tickets do state LT. I have an Advance Single from Tonbridge to LT, the only restriction on it is SA, and that I have to board the 08.25 train. An SE rep is trying to tell me that I can only use...

Beautiful, thanks

Thanks guys, as I thought the NRE website is lacking here. Is that planner view above publicly accessible ? Ta

Hello my lovelies, Good old trip.com have sold me the below ticket but the itin time contradicts the restriction code. It is BH Monday but the restriction still seems to apply. Am I safe ? Ta, Nick

Makes you smile…

TrainPal does the same but they’re one and the same group, aren’t they ?

Indeed, glad I got in at the right time.

My bad, it seems that prices have gone up since I booked the tickets, so I take the cost saving back. I’ll assume that Trainsplit would have given me £20 price too. Thanks everybody for your help, I think that’s it for the time being. Choo-choo

Thanks muchly. Always been comfortable with having enough time to make the connections, I just wanted clarity on where I stand officially. 1722324061 Ok that’s useful to know, thanks for clarifying. £20 each way rather than £23.50. Did you mean backed ? If you meant hacked I think I’ll...

The ticketing guide and Advance FAQs suggest that where no seat reservation has been made then later, or earlier, connecting trains can be boarded. Anyway, all academic in my case because my itin doesn’t meet the MCT and hence I can miss the TL train without penalty even if I arrive at...

Just out of interest is a booked train only a booked train where a seat reservation has been made ? Because although I have mandatory reservation coupons with timed trains there are no seat reservations of course for the TL and SE trains.

I didn’t ask for that itin ! The funny thing is I’m actually going out in Farringdon so am going to have to either take a chance on the night or contactless it across London instead. Didn’t think the forum would be beaten by this one ! I’ll be wary of trip.com in future, although they are...

Quite. So should I take it up with trip.com or put faith in the ticketing staff on the day will be understanding (a big risk in my view) ?

And what about the SE leg ? Can that be ignored too ?

Nope, 19.24. And my ticket says I must travel on the 19.04 from Farringdon to LB. The 55 mins is calculated as 15 + 30 + 10, correct ?

£20, AP, no railcard.

No, nothing on the ticket about routing or Slough.

Yeah I just read the TL bit elsewhere, reassuring. There’s no routing on the ticket. My onward leg is (again mandatory reservation) 19.24 LB to TON.

Not according to my tickets 1722284423 Thanks, that’s helpful. So if I follow the suggested itin between P & F, and it arrives on time at 19.00, I can’t be punished for missing the 19.04 TL ?

My concern is I don’t have the MTC/FL protection for the Paddington to Farringdon (TL) leg. What do you make the valid connection time as being ? I was naively under the impression there is one underlying ticketing system that suggests itineraries. How come one retailer can suggest this and...
