I have a 'West Midlands Day Ranger' today, and whilst at Stoke-On-Trent I saw a bus service on the departures board.
Upon further inspection it was heading to Stafford and was calling at Wedgwood and Stone. It's listed on the departure boards on the NRE app. I looked online and saw it was run by Baker Bus. The timetable states 'valid rail tickets are also accepted on the X1'. I tried to board, and showed my 'West Midlands Day Ranger'. The driver was having none of it and said only rail tickets that states 'Plusbus' were accepted.
The X1 timetable is listed in the timetable book for the line (Timetable 4)
My question is, should my ticket have been accepted ?
