Can I search for a train ticket from A to C via B?
When looking up tickets with national rail you can check train times with a via option.
Is this just for planning purposes or is it possible to buy the via ticket?
Best Answer
If it shows a price, then you can get a ticket; this might be two separate tickets if it's not an approved route from A to C, or it might be a single ticket - either an "Any Approved Route" ticket, or a specific routing if there are specific routings available.
If it doesn't show a price, then you can't get tickets for that journey and you'll have to break it into pieces yourself and buy tickets for the individual pieces. This usually happens if there's a very long delay between changing trains, or if you've done something silly like London Euston to London King's Cross via Edinburgh.
