Chiltern fares update

Today marks the start of the new timetable period which will run until the advent of Chiltern Mainline in September. There are no significant changes to the Monday-Friday pattern of services, though certain Moor Street to Marylebone and return trains will be made up of loco-hauled stock rather than Clubmans.

However, Chiltern have taken the opportunity to increase the Super Off-peak fare to £25. Outward from Moor Street, this is valid Monday-Friday on any service from 11.15. Back from Marylebone, travel is restricted to services from 10.50 to 15.20, and from 20.00 (no restrictions apply on Saturday or Sunday).

A knock-on effect of this increase is to decrease the saving possible on an Anytime Return fare which I described in January to £9.10 (or £9 if you go for the '3 journey' option)! Note that the savings possible using the off-peak option and split-fare options remain as before.
