I’m currently travelling on the return portion of a Harrogate-Manchester anytime short return, having taken the 23:19 Northern service from Manchester Victoria. My plan is to stay overnight at Todmorden and continue on to Harrogate in the morning. However, the guard has said that this is not allowed and has marked my ticket as used. I’m pretty sure that he is wrong and that I am right, i.e. that overnight break of journey is allowed on the return portion of an anytime ticket, but would appreciate it if someone could confirm this thanks.
