Hi All,
This is an amazing website and I spent a long time reading last night, downloading all the routeing guide pdfs and doing my best to digest them.
I had bought an return ticket from the national rail website. I followed the suggest route, but the ticket inspector on the train (RPI? not sure what this stands for) told me my ticket wasn't valid for that route.
I told him I'd confirmed the ticket online, and with a guard on the outward journey, but he said he'd been a train guard for 17 years and knew it wasn't valid. He refused to check anything. Luckily we pulled in to my station while we were discussing this and I got off. Is my ticket definitely valid, and what should I do next time if the same thing happens?
Many thanks in advance.
