If you have a period travelcard, you can do more or less whatever you
like, except for travelling on Virgin.

What rules out combining tickets when travelling on Virgin?

Possibly also the fact that they're an ex-Intercity TOC and therefore
*some* forms of local London/NSE ticket aren't valid. Although on
reflection I'm not sure this includes Day Travelcards and BZ tickets
(does include freedom passes and network cards).

Network Cards are valid on Virgin Trains - the only ex-IC TOC that
still refuses them is Gatwick Express, which is ironic as it's now
Southern. Outboundary Travelcards *from* MK are as well, so long as
it isn't the cheaper LM-only one. I have a feeling Boundary Zone
tickets are not, though, because of how revenue is accounted.
