I've got another annoying question for you, once again seeming to involve routes via Guildford.
I've got to go to Bourne End on Thursday from Havant, and a colleague is coming from Cosham.
I have put the journeys in to NRE, and there are routes from
Havant (0540) -> Guildford (0642) -> Reading (0742) -> Maidenhead (0801) -> Bourne End (0812)
and
Cosham (0642) -> Winchester (0731) -> Reading (0812) -> Maidenhead (0831) -> Bourne End (0842).
I notice that both of these routes come out as £37.50
One route that appears on each is:
Havant (0622) [-> Cosham (0629)] -> Southampton Central (0715) -> Reading (0812) -> Maidenhead (0831) -> Bourne End (0842).
This does not allow me to select it and simply states "You need to buy more than one ticket for this journey" "No fares available" and does not give any further information about which tickets are required. I'm going to guess that it is the XC service that is messing everything up here?
I could get the 0540 and meet my colleague at Reading, grabbing a McBreakfast in Reading and catching the 0812, but that seems a slightly silly thing. "I'm setting off a few miles from you. Meet you in Reading!"
How do I get the details for the "more than one ticket" route?
Is there a slightly more useful route option than doing a pincer attack on Reading?
Thanks
