I have the happy (?) prospect of turning 60 next year, and am I planning a two-week all line rail rover to celebrate.
The National Rail Senior Railcard website (https://www.senior-railcard.co.uk/help/faqs/validity/) states:
Does this mean between any two stations in the Network Railcard area that are en-route between the starting station of a journey and my destination? Or does it mean just between stations, where both starting station and destination are in the Network Railcard area? And if the latter, then if either the starting station or the destination is not in the Network Railcard area, then presumably it's permitted?
Does this restriction also apply to journeys made with an All Line Rover purchased with a Senior Railcard? If journeys are permitted whether either the start station or the destination is outside the Network Railcard area, then can I travel on a train in the peak if my destination is outside the Network Railcard area - eg Tonbridge - Victoria - when I'm heading to York for the day.
And finally, can anyone point me to a definitive ruling for this, in case I'm challenged while travelling.
Many thanks
