Liverpool to London via Chester

[Chris305]

Is this journey valid?

I ask because I already have an Off-Peak Return from Liverpool to London, but will now be travelling from Chester for the outbound.

So if the route is valid, could I start at Chester with my existing ticket, or is it a new ticket/excess?

Thanks in advance for any help!

Yes, it is. I would be astonished if it weren't.

Just to add, what you proposed is valid on an "any permitted" off-peak return. The route is valid on maps CH+EJ, and the ticket uses the restriction 2C, which allows break of journey on both legs.

It would not be valid on a "London Midland Only" off-peak return. Partly because these use SK, and this doesn't allow break of journey on the outbound leg (as you would need to do to start at Chester). And partly because London Midland don't serve Chester anyway.
