No. You need to get a regular ODTC, and then get a CDR from Boundary
Zone 6 to Reading. Note that this ticket combination will only
valid on those TOCs that stop somewhere else in the Travelcard area
after the terminal, so you can't use FGW of the non-"Link" variety.


Since 1 April 2006, it's all one franchise called First Great Western,
so surely that distinction doesn't apply any more?


That particular one doesn't, although AFAIK CDRs can still be used in
the evening peak on ex-FGWL services, but not "ex-FGW" ones.
