I have booked a journey (Via this sites excellent page!) and involves a return journey cross London from Euston to Paddington.
Collected the tickets from TOD machine, as it said it was the only fulfilment option, which I understand is normal for a cross London journey.
Tickets printed out, but no Maltese Cross on them, but just (for want of a better phrase), a Christian Cross.
Is it the same thing?

Almost certainly be o.k., but could you post a pic of one of the tickets, just so that we can be sure? Please could you obscure any QR /Aztec code that may have been printed on the ticket.

Yes different machines print the cross / dagger in different ways - so long as it's there you are fine

Yeah, that's a Maltese Cross in ticketing terms so you're fine. As far as I know none of the CCST printers (going back to the APTIS days) have ever printed the Unicode symbol - ✠ - which I presume was the origin of the term in GB rail ticketing terminology.

Ironically, not even the Unicode symbol looks like a Maltese Cross - it's actually a cross pattée, or something very similar to one.
