Please could someone confirm or otherwise my interpretation of the NRG?
I need to be in London for 11am on a weekday for which the 0758 PRE-EUS is the obvious choice, and with a Senior Railcard the Off Peak Return at £57.35 is unbeatable.
The return is in my own time and the next day, and I have used the NRG to establish that I have a wide choice of routes back (time restrictions permitting).
My home station is Blackburn, from which the VT Railcard easement does not apply, so I split at Preston.
Looking at maps BK, EP or RP it seems that Preston can be reached via Bolton-Blackburn.
Therefore, so long as I don't travel via Preston, I can use the return half of the SVR to finish short at Blackburn.
Am I right?
If so, I will see if the timetable works.
Thanks in advance.
