Gatwick to Reading is *not* currently valid via London according to
the routing guide even though there is an appropriate fare with cross
London connection.


On an Any Permitted ticket, you can go via London provided that you get
to Reading via Staines (e.g. Gatwick to London Bridge, W&C line,
Waterloo to Reading).

On a "route London" ticket you can go via Paddington as well.

You may find that cheap AP tickets e.g. Reading to Gatwick by AXC and
Gatwick to *Swindon* [1]


[1] Breaking the rules on ending short.


Can you please cite the rule that says you can't end short on these AP
tickets?
