Hello

I have already purchased an advance from Crewe to Euston.

I need to purchase a ticket from Liverpool to Crewe. The off peak day single is approx £25. Not seeing any advances.

But I noticed that an advance ticket from Liverpool to Stafford is approx £18.

Can I buy Liverpool to Stafford advance ticket, get off in Crewe and continue my journey to Euston on the 2nd advance ?

Thanks

Advance tickets do not allow you to break your journey (finish short).

NRCoT 9.5.2 states that "Where you break your journey when you are not permitted to do so you will be charged the difference between the fare that you have paid and the lowest price Ticket that is valid for the train you are using".

This is not intended to be permitted on Advance tickets, though the chance of detection is very low.
