I posted the following a few days ago in the Trip Planning and Reports section but as yet have not had any response. I thought I’d try here as it’s connected with ticket validity.
Is the Freedom of Devon and Cornwall Rover valid on the 0837 XC departure from Penzance?
The National Rail Website says that it is valid after 0900 Monday to Friday and at all times at weekends and Bank Holidays. However, on the GB Rail Rover website there is a statement saying valid after 0900 and also valid on journeys where the off peak day return becomes valid if earlier.
The off peak day return is valid on the 0837 from Penzance. I wouldn’t want to encounter problems with XC staff accepting it.
I’m travelling down from Nottingham to Penzance at the end of April, staying for 7 nights in the new Premier Inn close to Penzance Station. With my Senior Railcard, by splitting tickets at Cheltenham and Bristol I can get as far as Tiverton Parkway for £68 return. I am then planning on using an 8 Days in 15 Freedom of Devon and Cornwall Rover for the rest of the journey which would cost £55.40 with my railcard. I would then be able to use it throughout my stay in Penzance and for the return journey as far as Tiverton Parkway.
