North East Rover

[district]

Hi all

Just a quick one. Is the below image the Freedom of the North East rover, with validity as advertised to Retford in the south?

I understand some Ticket Issuing Systems list rovers with slightly different names, for example the All Line Rover being known as Freedom of Britain. I just want to ensure I have the correct Rover for the journeys I wish to make.

Many thanks

Yes and you can combine any ticket to Retford without any requirement for the train to call there.

(And if you're in the area on the 19th, feel free to join us at the York pub meet!)

Ah, in that case we will say hello to you on Platform 3 at York, and you may find people you know join you for the journey south

.....this is also known as, ANY train.

Indeed; I could have worded it better:

Yes and you can combine this Rover with any ticket to Retford; such a combination is valid on any train (ie. there is no requirement for the train to call).

I was merely doing my usual moan about the really small number of trains that call at Retford.
