Hi,
What would be the best tickets to buy for the following series of journeys:
Bath Spa (BTH)-Oxford (OXF) - Saturday 26th Jan- early afternoon
Oxford-Manchester (MAN) - Sunday 27th Jan- Morning
Manchester-Bath Spa - Sunday 3rd Feb - Evening (arrive back to Bath before 2300)
I have a Young Person's Railcard, and would prefer to use Flexible tickets.
What would the break of journey restrictions be on a Bath Spa-Manchester SVR be with respect to stopping in Oxford - Am I correct in thinking the journey must be completed by 1200 the following day?
- If so this isn't possible, but a SVR BTH-Stoke on Trent (SOT) Would be, leaving Oxford Sunday morning at 0927, then taking up a SOT-MAN SVR. Would this be a viable option?
And, why does the BTH-SOT SVR on the return journey permit changing at Reading according to National Rail, yet the Routing guide doesn't permit this?
On this ticket for returning, is there any way I could travel back via Newport - From Manchester using this part of the Routing Guide:
"BD (includes Westbury Group, CHIPPENHAM, SWINDON (WILTS), Bristol Group, NEWPORT (S.WALES), HEREFORD, CRAVEN ARMS, SHREWSBURY, CREWE, Wilmslow Group, Manchester Group, STOCKPORT)"
I know this is a lot of information, but I have tried to come up with a solution on my own and need clarification if this works? Many thanks in advance.
