remarked:
Does anyone know: if you have a national rail ticket coded for
cross-London travel will it work at any of these, or just the two
(typically) that are adjacent to the appropriate national rail termini?
E.g. if you are going from say Cambridge to Bristol, but upon arriving
at King's Cross you decide to avoid the over-crowded tube station by
walking to Euston Square, will the ticket work there? Â*And if so is it
technically valid to do this?


The list is from the National Fares Manual, which introduces it thus:
"Ticket prices in Section C, for journeys routed for travel ’via
London’ and marked with the symbol ?, include the cost of transfer
across London by London Underground, DLR or First Capital Connect
train services on the Thameslink route. Tickets displaying the ’cross-
London’ marker â€*, are valid for travel between any two of the
following stations appropriate to the route of the through rail
journey being made."


So all we need to know is whether or not Euston Square is considered
"appropriate" for a transferee from KX.
