Possible to buy a single Tube ticket / inboundary Travelcard miles away from London?

Is it possible to buy a single London Underground ticket (e.g. zone 1 only) from an NR ticket office many miles away from London (in this case Yorkshire)? Ditto for buying an inboundary Day Travelcard (i.e. zones 1-6)? FWIW, in this case, using contactless cards aren't an option, nor is Oyster (several are travelling, but either not enough for the 10+ Tube Group ticket, or else they wouldn't be able to travel all together - I'm a bit murky on the details of this endeavour). I know it's possible to get online booking engines to offer inboundary Day Travelcards, but they can't be made to offer single Tube tickets. Can an NR ticket office sell them? I've had a quick fiddle with BRfares.com ("zone u1* Londn" etc) without much luck. Southern sell inbound travelcards (usually as "Battersea Park to Zones ...") in Anytime or Off-Peak versions, and I think they still post them 1st class FOC when ordered online. I think the nearest you'll get to a zone 1 single on paper from a NR outlet would be a Zones 1&2 travelcard, but I may be wrong. I don't recall there ever being a Zone 1 only Travelcard BICBW. http://www.tfl.gov.uk/cdn/static/cms...s-jan-2014.pdf shows Travelcard rates for Zone 1 only but they are actually the same as Zones 1-2. |
