London Terminals National Rail tickets and London Underground gates

We got single tickets; we would have been cheaper to use returns to Stevenage. On our way back, a Hatfield to London Terminals ticket was valid at Moorgate after we got the Underground at Finsbury Park - those NR services do not run to Moorgate at the weekend. The ticket was returned by the machine; I started to wonder what worked. I then found the following: OUT IN Station Y - KXSP NR - Y KXSP LU N - Farringdon N - Barbican Y Y Moorgate N N Liverpool Street This is exactly as it should work given the validity parameters that are encoded on the ticket. It would also have worked at Old Street but not at Angel if your wanderings had taken you down the Northern Line City branch. I had not even considered Angel as it never had a National Rail service. OTOH, Old Street does on weekdays. I am VERY confused. ;( I think I can even recall setting up the data in the system for that many, many years ago. What a wonderfully informed reply! Why don't LU outgoing gates swallow X - London Terminals single tickets? Would you expect: London Terminals to Kemble to allow Moorgate to Paddington; Oxford to London Terminals to allow Paddington to Moorgate? (Thames Path from source to Oxford over 4 days, next weekend.) -- Walter Briscoe |
