Nephew has a £44 ticket for use on Monday - could some kind soul confirm when he can use if from Paddington. He wants to get the 0902 , but I suspect its a non starter (and he will have to pay excess , or buy a new ticket from SAC to Paddington)

I don't do tickets !

No restriction of course between st albans and London.

Restrictions apply out of paddington and vary by route.

What is the route printed on the ticket and what route does he want to take ?

If he wants to use the ticket from Paddington between 0810 and 1009 it is an excess of £11.20. Before 0810 it would be cheaper to buy a new ticket for £62.35. Valid on any train from St Albans to London and on any train at all if going via Evesham.
