AIUI correct. In terms of inboundary Travelcards, yes I agree. (For an outboundary Travelcard - from say Ashford or Dover, it'll either be "Route: any permitted" and so valid on HS1, or "Route: Not HS1" but upgradable for travel on HS1 with a supplement. The chap at the station specifically said that an outboundary Travelcard marked "Any Permitted" was *not* valid on HS1. He looked at that part of mine, and didn't even read where it was issued (because he asked that later). He said that (eg) Ashford ones would have some sort of "&HS1" routing (I forget the exact phrase). It's not so much an upgrade, as a supplement for one ride on the HS1. Maybe it *is* just the same as buying a new ticket? I think it may well be. Ditto. For Stratford Int'l to St Pancras Int'l... Anytime Single - GBP5.70. Anytime Day Return - GBP9.80 Off Peak Day Return - GBP7.30 I have a feeling he quoted £5.30, bicbw. There's no way of upgrading an inboundary Travelcard (nor indeed an outboundary Travelcard for a journey that would never go via HS1 even on payment of a supplement, e.g. Reading to London Travelcard, or Cambridge to London Travelcard). Indeed, but what about a supplement, to add a one-shot HS1 trip? Those with an inboundary Travelcard don't get any special benefits or discounts if they want to travel from Stratford to St Pancras (or vice versa) on HS1 - they need to buy a single, day return or season as required. -- Roland Perry |
