Yes - the Off peak single are for the outward and return journey for 1 person

I’ve been looking at ticket options for Crewkerne- Newcastle return via LNER. 2 Super off peak singles work out at £154.10 with a Senior Railcard. I ‘ve previously looked up the Crewkerne-Glasgow fare which is £153.50 for an Off peak return again with Senior Railcard. If I booked this ticket am...

Thanks everyone for prompt responses- hadn’t realised SWR weren’t affected by the strike

Assuming the strike on November 26 goes ahead does anyone have any idea what time the last train Waterloo -Crewkene is likely to be on the 25th? I have an appointment in London that afternoon and I d want to risk getting stranded. (Should be able to make the 17:20) Many thanks Paul

Many thanks Pugwash for a very comprehensive response. It looks like I can’t return via the S&C then Leeds - Kings Cross ( not sure it’s viable option to return via Sheffield-St Pancras then back to Axminster in a day) but I’ll check once I‘ve decided on the dates. If not practical it’s out via...

Hi I’m going to do a Freedom of Scotland later this year travelling from Axminster. Checking fares to Glasgow an off peak return, route any permitted ( with Maltese Cross) restriction 5F cost £135.75 (standard class) would appear to allow travel via Exeter or via London.Am I correct in assuming...

Thanks for the responses - I though it may be OK as looking at the map it seemed shorter than going via Southampton

Is Salisbury- Romsey- Eastleigh - Hedge End -Portsmouth Hbr a valid route? The routing guide appears to suggest it isn’t and you have to go via Southampton. I’d like to travel out that way and return via Southampton. Don’t know if it’s relevant but I intend using an off peak day return Many...

Selhurst

Norwood Junction & Selhurst for Selhurst Park (Crystal Palace)

Thanks for the replies - I'd guessed that even if it was the wrong ticket the difference in price would have been max 10p! As it took the clerk awhile to issue it in future I'll buy 'Croydon stations' from the ticket machines to save time

Sorry should have added that I have a London freedom pass (valid for rail ravel zones 1-6)

I asked for a 'Boundary Zone 6' ticket with Senior Railcard discount at Gatwick yesterday. When I examined the ticket on the train it was Gatwick -Croydon Stations cost £3.45. Was this the correct ticket?

Re Southern only fare to London Bridge If no direct train due you can always take a Victoria train and change at East Croydon which has 7 'fast' Southern services an hour to London Bridge

I'll make sure I get to my local station in good time (thanks to Ken/Boris the ticket office is open virtually all day) and buy a BZ6 -Poole ticket 'over the counter' Pauldubs

Many thanks for prompt replies - I thought I'd be OK but better safe than sorry! Monty & Yorkie I'll get the Subiton - Poole fare as I can buy that online shortly before I travel and collect on departure from my local station - it will be even cheaper as I 've got a Snr Rail Card! Pauldubs

I'm travelling from London to Poole next Saturday and will buy a Off Peak Day Return for Clapham Junction to Poole. Will my Freedom Pass cover me if I board the train at Waterloo even if it doesn't stop at Clapham Junction? Pauldubs

If an elderly person (over 60) went to a booking office to buy an ALR is the booking clerk obliged to recommend that they purchase a Senor Railcard first in order to reduce the cost?

To satisfy a long held ambition I'm travelling 1st class advance on this service from Aberdeen to London on 20 June. (I'll have travelled up to Inverness the previous day from Euston via Glasgow & the WC/ Highland ML and will return from Inverness via Aberdeen and the ECML) How crowded is the...
