I think I know the answer to this one, but would just like some confirmation...
On Sunday evening I'll be travelling from Milton Keynes to Surrey using the return half of an off-peak period return. However I want to stop off to meet friends near Leicester Square. AIUI my NR ticket will be good for one journey (only) between any zone 1 stations, so I could use it for the Northern Line from Euston to Leicester Square, or from Leicester Square to Waterloo, but not both.
If that's right, is there any benefit in choosing one or other option, in terms of it working barriers and avoiding gate-line hassle?
If there's no difference, my other option is to use a bus from Euston to the meeting point, saving an Oyster tube fare (I have a bus but not Freedom pass). I wouldn't want to rely on the bus for a late-evening connection to Waterloo.
TIA for any expert views.
