3 day rover ticket 12/24 start date - what is the end date?

[gazr]

Thinking of getting a 3 day thames rover starting 12/24... what would be the end date on the ticket giving that no trains on gwr 12/25 and 12/26? Sorry if this is a stupid question!

It would still end 26th, as no allowance is made for lack of service provision. And don't start the whole "Trains on Boxing Day" debate!

Why would you do that?

I take they don't have 3 in 7 type boxes like other GWR rovers in the wild West ?

No it is day 1, day 2, day 3 (24, 25, 26 in this case), though I do think it should be 24, 26, 27 or 24, 27, 28 depending on whether there are 26th December services?

It's an inappropriate ticket for the journey you wish to do given there is no service on days 2 and 3. Seek alternative arrangements.

ps its 24/12 not 12/24, being as this is not the USA

Thanks for the replies, I figured the ticketing system would not work in my favour.

Can you not just buy it to start on the 22nd? You’ll still get your three days that way and the 24th will be included.
