Quick Question Thread

If I've got a train ticket for Edinburgh Waverley to Perth, but I actually just want to go from Haymarket to Perth, will that be OK? Or will the Haymarket ticket barriers not let me through with that ticket?

Is it not normally on P&B that folk get off at Haymarket as opposed to get on?

You'll be fine, there's no price difference between the two and I've never had a problem doing that

Just show the ticket to the staff by the gate, they'll let you through.

I once went to a Hearts game on a Glasgow-Aberdeen rail ticket. Said to the guy at Haymarket that I was using the Edinburgh route instead and you're entitled to break your return journey. Formal conditions below...

Starting, breaking or ending a journey at intermediate stations:

You may start, or break and resume, a journey (in either direction in the case of a return ticket) at any intermediate station, as long as the ticket you hold is valid for the trains you want to use. You may also end your journey (in either direction in the case of a return ticket) before the destination shown on the ticket. However, these rights may not apply to some types of tickets for which a break of journey is prohibited, in which case the Ticket Seller must make this clear when you buy your ticket.
