Surely if Rob bought a return to Gatwick Airport at KXTL, they
would have sold him one that was valid.

Yes, but it wouldn't be a London Terminals ticket, which is the
point of this thread.

But that's not what the question was about. Threads drift.

Indeed, though I should put my hands up to muddying the waters a
little. The reason I asked was that I clearly recall buying a return
to Gatwick at KXTL and, being a little late upon my return, deciding
to hop off at Farringdon and go straight to the office. When my ticket
failed to open the barrier the chap said that I wasn't really allowed
to detrain at Farringdon, but he'd let me off this once.

This puzzled me at the time, and still does...

The simple truth is that the chap was mistaken.
