Hi - just a quick one, I assume it is fine but would a (super off peak) Cambridge to London Travelcard be valid on LNER between Stevenage and Kings Cross? So taking a Thameslink to Stevenage then changing to get into London. Many thanks

Yes - but obviously not the Greater Anglia Only one!
Great, thank you. Was thinking about why I hadn't done it before and wondering if there was a reason... Evidently not :).

Wouldn't southbound LNER stops at Stevenage technically be drop off only??

Not in general, no. They may be very late at night or early in the morning. Lumo and Hull Trains may have the stops restricted.

No, if that were the case there would be no point in providing LNER Only fares from Stevenage to London.

Not at all, pick up and set down restrictions were removed years ago (although Lumo and Hull Trains do still have them). LNER even have LNER only fares between Stevenage and London these days.

Edit - I see @Haywain and @Starmill beat me to the answer.
