That’s an odd one - shouldn’t that be on the blue transfer ticket stock?Tonight's ticket from Heathrow T2 to Heathrow T4 on the Elizabeth Line. It doesn't state the destination but clearly states where you can't travel to. Is this unique?
It shows the text as if it is one…Is that just a HEx inter terminal barrier pass?
I’d argue that’s a set of destinations and also stretching the spirit of the question…"London Terminals" and "London Thameslink" aren't exactly specific destinations
I’d argue that’s a set of destinations and also stretching the spirit of the question…
To be fair, I don’t think there are many answers to the question!Well I couldn't think of anything else
Related to that, the Southern DaySave is technically not a ranger but displays the destination of "Any Southern Train", which since it’s not really a static place, I’d also argue doesn’t show the destination…but that’s probably also stretching the question in case your destination is 377 111All rovers/rangers won't show a destination (since there is no destination, only valid areas), but I think that's a bit of a stretch of the question.
Only because they've run out of the blue branded stock that basically would otherwise state the destination.Tonight's ticket from Heathrow T2 to Heathrow T4 on the Elizabeth Line. It doesn't state the destination but clearly states where you can't travel to. Is this unique?
ISTR that for a while back in the early 80’s Edinburgh Waverley was issuing some tickets off rolls (came up through a slot in the metal counter like admission tickets for cinemas etc at the time). Did they show a destination or just a fare?I'm guessing the OP is mainly looking for current examples*, but I will mention that long before Oyster, the standard daily diet for single tickets on the London Underground was a card ticket showing the origin station, the date and the ticket price.
This was valid to "any station to which that fare applied" but no destination was shown.
IIRC, something like yellow-coloured card with a thick, brown magnetic coating on the back if bought from vending machines / for use in automatic barriers, or pale green card if bought at a ticket office / for use via a manual gate.

* - and also is ignoring the trivial example of Platform Tickets.
Although these usually seem to show the station of issue, so could be said to have destination of "the platform at that station”.

I didn't know that - shows how long it is since I last bought a paper ticket for the Tube.LUL tickets are still issued as 'Point of Origin', that is they show the issuing station and fare paid, rather than the destination.
Permit to Travel tickets similarly show (or showed - are these still a thing?) the origin station and sum paid without a destination.Platform tickets?
Here is one issued on a bus. https://flic.kr/p/9b3kGvI didn't know that - shows how long it is since I last bought a paper ticket for the Tube.

In the early days of PayTrains, guards were equipped with bus conductor-style ticket machines. Tickets issued from these showed the fare paid and origin station (using a numeric code, like a bus fare stage, rather than explicit station names). I'm sure I saw an image of one of the small square Almex variety (IIRC pink in colour) on the internet not so long ago but can't track it down now.
And I suspect some shorter-distance tickets on the North London Line were once issued in the "Origin plus fare paid" format, without a specified destination.
Can you even buy a Croydon tram ticket these days, how many years has it been since the old TVMs were removed?Croydon tram tickets don't have a destination, just a time limit in which to complete your journey.
There is a destination of "Tramlink" in the fares database and the announcements on the trams say "a ticket to or from Tramlink" is valid. Never tried to buy one though.Can you even buy a Croydon tram ticket these days
