This is the kind of thing they’ve been saying. https://www.railforums.co.uk/threads/lner-to-pilot-removal-of-off-peak-tickets.261183/page-29#post-6605638 https://www.railforums.co.uk/threads/lner-to-pilot-removal-of-off-peak-tickets.261183/page-48#post-6646216...

Morning @AlterEgo The above is an important point and demonstrates the significant misunderstanding and confusion that most passengers have. It’s an ingenious plan from LNER to DfT. Many people are buying the same ticket they always bought but at a significantly higher cost, with no...

off topic from OP but OSI’s (out of station interchanges) are applicable to paper (magnetic) tickets, albeit a smaller selection. Details here: https://content.tfl.gov.uk/out-of-station-interchanges.xlsx

It was the portrait plasma board at Mornington Crescent station entrance. Perhaps the board had more than one page - that might explain it. I definitely checked the board when I saw the unexpected gap but I may not have waited long enough to see an additional page.

Yes that’s true, but mine was not the only nine minute gap, even the trains from towards the terminus into Central London were crowded, there were further 7 to 9 minute gaps that I saw on the southbound when I arrived at my destination. Presumably, if this is the aftermath of a problem...

Ah ok - unconnected then, thanks. But unfortunate that board says good service

9 minute gap on northbound northern line (Charing x branch) at 4.30pm Monday evening peak.

Although not directly applicable to the case you post about, for other journeys you make this might be helpful (in case you don’t know about it already) If you are - or you are travelling with - a passenger in a wheelchair, and buying an anytime day return ticket, you and companion both can get...

It will also double the cost for some people having to pay a tube and bus journey rather than one tube journey. Seems unfair.

Ah perhaps they’ve already done it. I’ll try updating the TfL go app. Thanks for that. 1712413119 That’s weird, I’m running 17.4.1 Thanks

I can no longer sign into this app. Having checked on the iOS App Store, not only can I see no update, the app fails to appear at all. This was never exactly the best app – it was always unreliable. But to now not seem to be able to use it at all is appalling! If those who have made the...

An off peak day return is £17.40. Many (probably a majority of) off peak return/day return tickets, are priced in this way with off peak singles / day singles priced at a token amount less. This will affect you if you are only making single off peak journeys. There was a trial on LNER priced...

BR fares (an unofficial source) shows off peak and super off peak. Have you tried buying from a ticket machine? https://www.brfares.com/!fares?orig=PBR&dest=AWM&period=20240401

I can’t comment about posters’ experiences on Merseyrail because, to the best of my knowledge, I’ve never travelled on a Merseyrail service. However, quite a few posts in this thread bemoan and criticise Merseyrail for not wanting to modernise, or to join the 21st century or similar spirited...
