I wish I had found this forum before I bought tickets!
I've bought advance single tickets from Bishop's Stortford to Bingley. The journey planner says to change at Tottenham Hale, take the underground to King's Cross, then catch the train to Leeds from there.
The restrictions on the webpage say, "Route: Only valid on booked London North Eastern Railway services and required connecting services." I haven't yet collected the tickets from the station, so I'm not what might be printed on that regarding the route.
I'm used to journey planners suggesting switching at Tottenham, but I've always ignored that and continued on to Liverpool Street and getting the underground from there (I normally have a London travelcard or 'any permitted route' ticket, never bought advance tickets before), so I didn't really think I might be stuck with changing at Tottenham Hale until after I'd bought them - nor did I realise I could set the search to "via Liverpool Street" to force it to show Liverpool Street options.
My main question is: Am I stuck with having to switch at Tottenham Hale, or would my ticket be valid to go to Liverpool Street and change there?
Thanks so much for your knowledge and help!
