Hi all,
I searched this part of the forum but was unable to locate anything specific.
The question is whether it is permissible to break off (and not continue) an outbound journey and whether the return portion will still be valid.
Point in case (All tickets assume Saturday travel - off peak):
I'm at Stratford-upon-Avon (SAV) and with to go to Lapworth (LPW), cycle down the canal and catch a return train to SAV from Leamington Spa (LMS).
If I purchase a one was SAV-LPW and a one way LMS-SAV (which is the actual "real" travel), I pay:
* 10.20 (on some early services 5.20) for the first leg, and,
* 7.30 for the "return" leg
However, on the National Rail journey planner, I can get a day return "off-peak" (SAV-LMS and, THIS IS IMPORTANT, choosing VIA LPW) for 7.40.
The point (sorry for the rambling, just giving sufficient context) is, am I allowed to purchase a SAV-LMS day return, get off at LPW, cycle down and take the return from LMS to SAV? Would getting off at LPW on the outbound invalidate the return portion?
