What does "Ticket only" mean for a ticket on a train?

Train Ticket Help + What does Route Any Permitted mean?

  • Hello, I am just curious if I can use my train ticket on a different railway station. My Train Ticket says from Erith to Nuneaton. Would I be able to use it at Welling Train ...show more

  • Answer:

    Yes, as long as your ticket permits break of journey (they share a routeing point). For this journey off-peak tickets allow break of journey on both legs but advance tickets do not. Any Permitted means a route which is allowed in the routeing guide. Direct trains and the shortest route are always permitted. Otherwise you need to look up the routeing points for your start and end station, if a station has more than one associated routeing point you need to do the fares check which is never fun. After that look up the journey's appropriate maps and you can then take a route which you can trace without doubling back. ======================================... Erith is associated with Charlton and Slade Green Nuneaton is a routeing point itself. Welling has routeing points of Charlton, Dartford, Lewisham and Slade Green so Therefore we need to look into the fares check from Charlton and Slade Green for Anytime Singles (SOS) Erith - Nuneaton = £71.50 Charlton - Nuneaton = £69.50 - this is cheaper than the direct fare so Charlton is an acceptable routeing point Slade Green - Nuneaton = £71.50 - this is the same as direct fare so is also acceptable. ======================================... Charlton RP [Routeing point] to Nuneaton is routed via London - this means you look at permitted routes from Charlton to London and from London to Nuneaton. Charlton to London Grp is permitted on map CT which only permits going via New Cross Gate into some London terminal. London Grp to Nuneaton is permitted on map TV or TV+WM so you can either take the direct route from Euston or change at Coventry and/or Birmingham and if your ticket permits break of journey then you can always stop and look around town en route. Fares Simplified - My ****!

Any permitted is any route which takes you in the direction to your destination. It generally means the most direct route. However, you have the choice to go via London using the underground, or 'cross country' without the underground. So if you were able to get to a line that takes you through London e.g. somewhere on the Brighton to Bedford route which does not use the underground, that would be a route you could take for some of the journey. You would probably have to change somewhere to do this, but you would not have the hassle of using the underground.

The permitted route from Erith to Nuneaton. is Erith to Charing Cross or London Bridge. Then Underground to Euston Station. Then Virgin Train from Euston to Nuneaton. The Underground section in central London is included in the fare

You must start the journey at Erith and end it at Nuneaton Any rail route between those if there is a choice is acceptable No you cannot start at Welling.
