East Croydon - Bournemouth Off peak return via Barnham

[renegademaster]

The fare exists on BR fares, all though the GWR service is gone i can do it's route by hopping along the west coastway. I can not make any journey planner make me itinerary, including TrainSplit on the "cheap" option. Is their something in the restrictions i am missing?

What day are you searching for? The fare should come up with a search via Barnham specified. Is it a day when there is engineering work?

For example https://ticket.southernrailway.com/journeys-list/ECR/BMH/2025-04-09T10:00/2025-04-10T18:00/1//?departNow=no&realTime=no&searchPreferences=,,,&showAdditionalRoutes=no&showCheapest=no&step=outward-service&tocSpecific=no&via=BAA

(Southern website used because you can send a link with specified times and journey)

I use the train from Dorchester South and always have to use the "Avoid/Via" option, so use Via Barnham and it works a treat.
