Hi folks. Slightly complex one this, but here goes:
I'll be travelling from Blackpool North to Southport tomorrow on a Standard Open Return. My plans have changed last minute in that I'll now be coming back on Tuesday from Liverpool city centre. I'm considering travelling on Merseyrail from Moorfields to Ormskirk, then Northern from Ormskirk to Preston onwards.
I've checked the ATOC routeing guide and both Southport and Ormskirk are associated with the Preston Lancs group. However, the obvious direct route using the Ormskirk-Preston line would be via Burscough, changing between Bridge and Junction stations on foot.
I'll have a Merseyside PTE Saveaway on the day for the Merseyrail leg, but will the SOR be valid for travel from Ormskirk or will I need an additional ticket for say Ormskirk-Burscough?
Thanks in advance!
